Just one black cat named Lucky here at the moment. Rescued him as a kitten in Ireland in 1998.

I adore cats!

My wife and I took in a German Shepherd from the area Shepherd Rescue Group in August. She's 5 years old, and adapted to us and our houses in a heartbeat. She belonged to an "older gent" who passed on, and none of his family wanted her. He must not have been "active" because it has taken about 8 weeks to get Brandy to "play".

She loves the weekends, when we go "down the shore", as she gets a lot of playtime with the neighbors lab, and the other neighbors rotweiler.

She's eating good, and is now about 100-110 lbs, filled out real nice, and she is a great dog and companion.

I had back surgery in August,so the wife bought a minature schnauzer to keep me company(occupied is more like it )He can be a handful at times,but we all love him.He's been easier to train than all 4 of my kids and 90% of my helpers

I have a min. Schnauzer also. Good dog, smart, trainable (if he wants to), gets into trouble if left to his own devices, great help(if a cold wet nose in the ear while laying in the cabinets is help), but he is my best friend and go anywhere buddy.

For the hunters in the house, I recommend www.altmoor.com/Deutsch-Drahthaars/dogintro.html
