AIBU to think nobody has a dog as good as mine?!

He’s just awesome. He so cuddly and funny and cute...
He had a nasty accident back in October and broke lots of bones and yet he has recovered so well. He smiles all the time.
I luff him so much!

April what breed are they? I am not very good with breeds.

They look like supermodels!

Fab thread !

I love it when dogs smile ( which they do of course ) Smile

YABU

Mine's the sweetest most adorable kindly loving dog in the world

I honestly feel that the family wasn't complete until we got him

Here's my two naughty boys a couple of months ago when they were still puppy-like!! Percy and Moriarty!!

What's that expression: "every person who has a dog knows they have the best dog in the world and none of them are wrong" 😁

MarsBarsAreShrinking · 09/06/2018 22:59

My spotty boy ❤️

I think you'll find my little cocker spaniel settles this debate once and for all

YABU (though his smile is gorgeous!) This was the best dog ever... handsome, cuddly and as daft as a brush. I must have been holding food when I took this pic as there’s no way he’d have sat that still otherwise! He died three years ago and I still miss him terribly- want to get another dog when the DC are a bit older but genuinely worry I’ll never love another dog as much.

I'm offended that Bob was called a lurcher. He was a bloody greyhound! I mean really, I'm very triggered right now 😂

Sleighthound 1 is utterly faultless.
Sleighthound2 makes up for this in every way Blush

BastardMs · 09/06/2018 23:15

Im hearing that sleight. Old pooch, Bob, was a bloody dream. New pooch, Frodo, is an utter turd 😂

SleightOfMind · 09/06/2018 23:18

Even the little DCs miss the old dogs so much.
I think all the dogs we’ve lost are The Best Dogs Ever Wink

FizzyMakeFeelNice · 09/06/2018 23:18

You're all wrong. This was the goodest boy ever. He was my family dog from when I was 16 til 31. He was the most loyal, gentle, clever, soppy, daft, playful, amazing dog ever. He was my Benny Boy, and was a staffy x ridgeback.

He died of pancreatitis 20 months ago, and I still miss him every day.

Mine is the best. He even has a hobby; he collects socks.

@bridgetosomewhere we had been away on holiday and this woods is our favourite haunt, she was so happy and content!

FizzyMakeFeelNice · 09/06/2018 23:25

This is my current boy, he's 5 years old and daft as a brush. He is a good cuddler, knows when I'm sad and brings me toys to make me smile.

He is playful and protective, and amazingly patient with kids. While he will never replace my Benny Boy, he is special in his own way as he has bonded with me, and is the 1st dog that is truly mine rather than my parents'.

Ahh Fizzy it hurts doesn't it. I miss Bob every day. He wasn't a 'dog'. He was my friend and I miss my friend every single day.

greenvalleys · 09/06/2018 23:29

This girl....I can't describe how much i love her.

And sorry bob dog breeds are not my thing - you were so handsome x

BastardMS it hurts in a different way, I think. We've had a run of deaths in my family the last few years, including my last 2 grandparents, and while these have all hurt a lot, when my Benny died it hurt in a way that seemed, I dunno, the only word I can think of is "purer." Probably as the thing that made Ben happiest was pleasing his humans. He used to go around the house each night checking everyone was home. When I was pregnant, he would snuggle my bump, and was so gentle and protective of DD when she cam along.

Mine is the dearest darlingest dog. Two new metal knees in the past year and he's still going strong. Bit of a rascal. But he's my rascal

I hear that Smile Bob died on the 26th January, my dad died on 24th January. I like to think my dad needed him more than we did.

FizzyMakeFeelNice · 10/06/2018 00:10

Oh wow, that gave me a watery smile, Benny died a day after my cousin. That's a lovely thought ☺

MarsBarsAreShrinking · 10/06/2018 00:10

Alas no, his name is Alfie I'm afraid 😂 However his bestest friend (also a spotty) is called Perdy!
