my toy poodle barkerton - he's a special little man :D

Spooky Suki, our aged, arthritic, deaf, flatulent and ever faithful rescue staffy :)

I have a cat that thinks she's a dog! She's actually a Bengal and is brilliant at fetching balls, she loves playing with water, and I can take her for walks on a lead...who needs a dog when you can have a cool, and very intelligent cat!!

We have two, both cross breeds... Spike & Lola who are not allowed on the sofa, but we arrived home and captured this:

This is Murphy and he is a Scottie dog. We had our first Scott many years ago and he made such a huge impact in our lives we knew they would always be the breed for us.

Murphy is 1 now and named after Murphy McManus from the Boondock Saints movie. I'm still working on dh to let me have a Connor McManus

I am Murphy's human of choice, today he's followed me to the loo on every occasion, diligently examined every shopping bag when the Christmas food shop arrived, snored on my knee all through the football and is now on his back, legs akimbo snoring at the end of the bed. His wagging tail gets me up in the morning, he's my best friend and my confidant.

heres our doggies pippa (our whippet) and lulu (cross terrier) wishing mumsnet a merry christmas woof woof

Benji the one-year-old Staffie, who loves making sure everyone is clean.

I love this thread, there are so many rescued dogs on it, living fabulous lives with lovely people who's lives are richer because their doggy sidekicks are in them!

Not my usual name. :)
This is Doog. He's quite possibly the most cuddly, loving dog ever. Great with kids and full of fun. His hobbies are chasing a ball, watching animal programmes on TV, sleeping, eating, chasing a ball some more and cuddles.

I've no pets so I guess my dodgy sidekick is my husband ????????

Toffee 4 months old and new to the family.

This is Casey 'playing hide & seek' with DD2 when she was younger. She was a rescue puppy, and she is so so patient and loving with the girls. They have grown up with her (she is 14 now!) and their lives have been enriched by her, immeasurably.

These are our sidekicks, Scottie and Hector.

Scottie is almost 13 now, and Hector is 2.

Scottie (who I wanted to call McFlurry) is a very independent little thing, very stubborn, but also very loyal and has endless patience. She 'talks' to me with the famous Scottie Growl, which can be a bit worrying for people who aren't used to Scottie dogs but anyone who knows them will know the Scottie Growl. It usually translates to "where's my food" or "is that my biscuit you're eating?" or sometimes "pick me up so I can look out of the window."

Hector has been like my shadow since DH brought him home. He's a very social dog and where I go, he goes. He likes to be with people and if someone in the house is upstairs while someone else is downstairs, Hector is sitting about halfway up keeping an eye on everybody.

As you can see, they both love hate their outfits, but they only had to wear them for as long as it took to take the photo's.

Here are my two Springer boys (Monty and Bracken). They have helped me through some tough times and always greet me with very waggy tails. They are my best friends

Millie celebrating Christmas!

Mine is my little rescue pup Snoopy, here he is all dressed up for Christmas!

My doggy sidekick from when i was little.
Wish i could introduce him to my children :(

Here's my Little Ray. He was a rescue dog via the RSPCA. The most wonderful addition to our family... we are all sooooo in love with him.
Lucy

This is Sophie my working cocker - such a sweet girl but somewhat excitable and just a little naughty!

My son's doggy sidekick is Kaiser and has been with him his whole life so far!

My dog is my best friend. He always seems to know when i'm in a bad mood and would do tricks to cheer me up and it always works.

This is my gorgeous side kick Hollie, shes 13 month old British bulldog. She sits looking proud as punch as she knows she's a beautiful girl, she has a very gentle caring nature and follows us sll over the house. She is fiercely protective of dd3 (2)and will place herself between anyone new that comes near dd3. She eespecially loves licking dds ears

My dog is so proctective of my and my Son. When we are out walking she barks at everyone in sight and my Son's favourite game is chasing her around the park. He loves her to bits and I've attached a photo of them walking together. She really is our best friend and is ultra cute too.

No photos I'm afraid as it was a long time ago but as a child we had a dalmation called Critter probably from me being a toddler to early teens. He was a big softy and very very stupid! Funny how much as I loved him I grew up to be more a cat person whereas the rest of my family prefer dogs! I remember one time he ran the length of the greenhouse and straight through the closed door at the end, breaking all the glass. He just stood there happily licking all the blood off his poor nose! Ahhhh!

My thread from a few days ago might appeal to the #annieMovie people
