    On our private drive there is a Chihuahua and a small black and white mixed breed. On the main road there is a new Golden Retriever pup, 2 collies, 2 German Shepherds, a small unidentifiable one that gets carried a lot,a Yorkie and some others I can't remember. All these are seen on walks; none are kept outside.

    There is a 13 acre dog park practically in my backyard. I've got every dog for a neighbor.

    I already blathered on and on about my mom and dad's block...

    In my building there's a fawn-colored Pug (Sophie), a fawn Puggle (Rocky), a long-haired black dachshund (Bailey), a Yorkie (Enzo), a tri-color Papillon (Cammie) who I just love to pet; and a red short-haired dachshund that's mean and growls at everyone. 3 other cats on my floor, two more upstairs and one on the first floor.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    I have new neighbors on the first floor, a young married couple, whose dog looks a lot like Twisterdog's! I'm waiting for a time to strike up a conversation and learn more about them and their dog.

    I live in a historic neighborhood, in the downtown area. Many of the homes have been converted into apartments. But I have a single family house next door and they have a gorgeous brittney spaniel named Maggie. My Sasha kittyloves to sit int he window in the spring and summer and torment her!

    I see LOTS of people walking their dogs, but the one that stands out the most is the St. Bernard that walks by every evening in the spring and summer. There are also a couple of rotties who live in one of the houses behind mine. They bark at me every time I take my trash out and I can hear them in the summer when the windows are open.

    In addition to the doggies, we have some feral kitties who come by to visit... and of course the raccoons and squirrels!

    RIP sweet Tabitha, my heart kitty. You are loved and missed every day. 1988 - 2010

    Rocky and his people moved. Bailey has gone to the Rainbow Bridge. I don't know what happened to Enzo and his person. I just found out that Cammie and her dad are moving to Florida permanently. That breaks my heart because she's so sweet, affectionate and adorable. I heard another of our neighbors tell him yesterday that it's fine if he moves to Florida but he needs to leave Cammie here with us. He just laughed and said she'd love the attention!

    Aww, where we live now there is a young Rhodesian Ridgeback, Reilly, growing up - and up is accurate she just keeps getting taller, and a Shiba Inu who gets walked by several different family members, but is not interested in strangers.

    The city (Dunedin) I live in is nicknamed "dog-Eden." So, as you can imagine we have several dog neighbors, most of them I know personally because they are clients at my work!

    It's pretty neat! We have several murals downtown dedicated to creatures, mostly dogs. You can see them here:http://www.muralsformutts.com/gallery.html

    None of my pups are on there, but several I know are!

    Our neighbors have a German Shepherd mix (Freeway), two houses down they have a Boxer (Dodger), the house across from them has dogs but I've never seen them (I've lived here for 7 years) I believe they are huskies. They may only have one now, but I do hear a dog barking from there more often now than before.
    At the end of our court is a German Shepherd (Maddie). Our neighbors behind us have a white Standard Poodle (Bon) and one of their children has a cream Golden that visits. And there are several dogs we see being walked. One is a chocolate Lab and she lets her potty on everyone's lawn.
    So I guess there are only bigger dogs in my area. Or the people with small dogs do not walk them.
    Our house backs up to a community park so people take dogs there often. Even though they aren't supposed to be off leash while in the park. There have been PLENTY of times that my dogs are going crazy in the corner (that backs up to the park) because of a dog.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I live in a smaller luxury apartment complex. I have seen a beagle, pug, dachshund x2, lab, poodle, sheepdog, chi mix?, and another larger dog mix. I know there is probably a few more.

    Mostly everyone has either Labradors or Goldens, but there's a pug/beagle mix, a little spaniel mix, 2 rat terriers, 1 Boston terrier mix, 2 mutts & a Pittie cross, 1 Lhasa Apso, 1 beagle, 2 pugs & a Rottweiler (extermely aggressive towards people and other dogs, owners are idiots and have absolutely no control over this dog, never gets walked, animal control is a regular visitor due to attacks, dog should have been put down a long time ago), 1 mini Poodle, and I think that's it!

    Doggie neighborhood, here. Seems every house has at least one! LOL
    Next door: 2 Boston Terriers: Lil Bits and Bacon
    This side of my street: one house has 5 Chis: Taco, Paco, Pepe, Maddie and Paxie (sp?)
    Fluffy, Lhasa Apso
    Across the street: 2 boxers: Princess and Satchi
    Cali, Miniature Poodle, apricot coloring, just 4 months old (awwww!)
    Ben, Golden Retriever
    Marshmellow, Bichon
    Tiger, Pittie

    My yard backs onto the school yard where lots of folks walk their dogs, so we see plenty of them. And as we walk the neighborhood, we know where most live.

    Kia, Akita (friends of ours, though Kia can NOT be trusted around any other animals)( it is pronounced KEYE-ah)
    Cookie, Rat Terrier
    Sadie, Lhasa Apso
    Wilson, Golden Doodle
    Bear, Golden Retriever

    Names unknown: Maltese, Dachshund, Pittie mix, Black Lab.
    LOTS more we see less often.

    Strikes me as odd, we have NO GSD's in the neighborhood!
