    well one of my dogs was mean as could be- it was bipolar- happy one minute than angry the next- and you know if it were today the dog would have been put down becuase it bit someone badly at least once a week and for what? for going to the bathroom- for coughing-
    he was loveable when he was sweet but you learned to watch your back

    I have 3 dogs. Samantha is a basset hound that has had oral cancer. She is fun loving and full of energy. Big Foot is also a basset hound and is as lazy as can be. The third dog’s name is Katrina, she is a weenie dog we adopted from some Katrina evacuee’s that our Church housed after the storm. thanks!

    My dog passed away a few months ago, he was 14 and very much loved. He would smile when I came home from work. Not the normal “dog smile” but a human smile…it looked a bit like he was snarling, but he was trying to imitate a human smile…so sweet. I miss him so much!

    Thank you. 🙂

  16. 20 Kelly M May 21, 2009 at 8:21 pm

    My first pet was a little terrier mix dog named Elf. He was such a sweet dog, I really miss him, hopefully one day I will get another dog.

    I would love to win this movie so much! I’ve wanted to see it ever since I saw the first preview a few weeks before it was even released to the theaters. If I win a copy of it, I can watch it whenever I want to, without having to worry about returning it anywhere. I have 5 cute, Wonderful dogs that all act adorable! Lizzie and Betsy (poodle mixes) love to snuggle. They sleep with my dad at night; and then they come to my room and bed when he leaves for work. Littleman loves to be carried like a baby on my shoulder. Jo Jo loves to carry his toys when he goes outside. And Muffin and Jo Jo like to steal each other’s toys. They never fight over them. They just wait until the other has his/her back turned, then steals the toy back. It’s funny to watch.

    We used to have a stray cat we took in that we called Mrs. Tom because she was a tomcat that ended up being pregnant 😉

    My cat was rescued as a kitten by firemen. She somehow climbed up a tree, she was a stray. We named her Chloe.

  43. 47 Carol May 22, 2009 at 5:44 am

    My cat liked to chase bugs!

  44. 48 Carol May 22, 2009 at 5:45 am

    My cat didn’t like wet cat food, she only ate dry food. She would bat it around with her paw in the dish before she ate!

  45. 49 Carol May 22, 2009 at 5:45 am

    My cat was afraid of thunderstorms and hid under my arm when she heard thunder. Too cute.

    My cat was once discovered sleeping with almost her entire head inside my dad’s slipper. LOL

    My parents have our first dog that we got as a married couple. His name is Cody. He is a smooth fox terrier and is 14 years old. We gave him to my parents because when our oldest son was 10 months old we found out he was allergic to dogs.

  55. 59 Angela Nixon May 22, 2009 at 8:08 am

    See above post…

    Now my son has a dog and takes allergy shots monthly to be able to have a dog… that is what I call a dog lover. He is a Yorki-poo that Jordan named Kasey Kahne after his favorite race car driver.

    For my tenth birthday I picked out a dog we named Puma because of his tawny-colored fur. The pet store said he was a chihuahua-beagle mix, a description we always doubted. We thought he might be at least part basenji because we had him for months and he still hadn’t barked. Then one day I was playing with him in front of our empty fireplace. He was still really small, maybe 10 pounds at that point. Well, he let out a bark and the fireplace amplified it and it seemed so loud and mature it was like hearing a lion’s roar coming out of a kitten!

    Our yellow lab loves to sleep on his dog bed upside down with his head hanging over the edge so that his lips flop down and show all of his teeth. For some reason he looks like a bat in this position.

    Oh my first pet was a cat named Midnight. She was solid black with a white star on her neck. She was a true hunter and would bring me “presents” on a regular basis. Not so cute to us, but she thought is was.

    A mutt found us and we aptly named er hPepe le Peu, we called her Peppy. She was very lovable and was a great companion. After she was hit, in a horrible accident she suffered for years with epilepsy. She remained faithful but as her epilepsy worsened her medication no longer controlled it and her seizures were constant. Putting her to sleep was the hardest decision my parents had to make but we realized that her “quality of life” was poor and that she no longer was PEPPY in any sense of the word. We have amazing memories of her and are glad she came into our life.

  149. 159 Ali Hammons June 1, 2009 at 8:08 pm

    We had a black and white cat growing up. Her name was Oreo. When we were on the computer she used to get up onto the desk and walk across the keyboard. Then if that wasn’t entertaining enough for her, she was plop right down on the escape key. Usually closing down any program we had running. She was the sweetest, most loving cat, and definatley loved attention. Even if it meant interrupting your computer time to get it.

    The only pet we had when I was a kid was a bird. He used to fly around the house and scare everyone. The funny thing (or not so funny maybe) is that none of the kids noticed when he died. One day one of us asked our mom where he was and she told us that he died like 2 months prior…

    When I was a child the only pet we had was a cocker spaniel named Sandy. she ran away when I was little.So most of the pet stories come from going through a menagerie with our children. We had 2 guinea pigs Buterscotch and Napolean Nibbles in separate cages. And easily frightened. Especially when our kitty joined them in one of their cages. It looked like 2 little statues frozen in place. Missy Lou never hurt them but scared the dickens out of them.

    Patty likes to watch ants & bugs. She likes to chase birds. Now that I have a baby bird I’m raising, she’ll lay in front of its cage and not let the other dogs look in at it.

    My dog runs on a little race course outside every time we let her out. She also knows what “squirrel” means.

    My childhood pet was named psychokitty because when we got her, she would just run around the house and hit the walls with her head…

    When I was a kid, I lived on a farm and we had every kind of animal you could think of. Ostrich, Emu (bird), hedgehog, pot belly pig, peacocks, fallow deer, llama, miniature horses, not to mention regular horses, dogs, cats, bunnies, we had them all.
    BUT if we wanted to keep them, WE had to do the work, and boy did we work hard.

    I’ll try to cut it short, but when I was a kid we had a beagle named Brandy who ate everything that was not nailed down. One day my mom made a whole batch of cream puffs (about 30) and left them on a pan on the dining room table and left the house for a while. Luckily she hadn’t stuffed them with the custard yet. I came in and the dog was hiding, so I knew he did something. Then I saw the big pan with one cream puff sitting in it and not one single crumb on the floor! My mom came home and screamed but we laughed because we couldn’t believe he ate all those cream puffs! I miss him so much!!!!!

And of course my ex- husband would sleep on the couch . This would happened everytime that we had a fight. Amazing isn’t it???

    Someone gave me a Minature Schnauzer that was abused by their kids and I took in the beautiful female dog and I already had another male at home and these two dogs are like brothers and sisters and they just love each other. I love when I come home they both run to the door and greet me with kisses. The female is doing beautifully with us.

Sunny, a German shepherd mix that we adopted when she was 7, is content just laying around unless she senses danger to me or my husband. She will try to protect my husband from Max when Max is trying to protect my daughter from my husband when they are playing. Never a dull moment.

    I had a cat as a child. It used to love beach balls. I would roll one over to her and she would run toward it and sometimes roll around with it. It was cute. Thank you.

    I had a calico cat named Tiger who was very cute.

    Oh, I’d love to win this so that I could watch it with my little granddaughters who are “puppy-crazed!” We’d make some popcorn, and have a heck of a good time!

    I missed this movie. This is a movie that the whole family can watch.

    When I was a kid we had a dog that looked like a husky. He was actually a German shepherd mix but smaller. We tied him to the sled and pretended that he was taking us to the North Pole to see Santa. Of course, we never moved an inch.
