Hmmm........after seeing your pics, do I want another one now? Nah, I kind of like having NOTHING dogs that I don't have to feed, walk, take to the vet, etc. So thanks fw and W for sharing your pups with us. Both are absolutely beautiful dogs!



So, your NOTHING dogs birthday is a dead NOTHING dog ? RIP Fido

This is our Jake, NOTHING but handsome

We had a Dalmation named Ashes. She lived for 19 years and not for NOTHING. She picked up Valley Fever in Scottsdale, AZ and tried to get around the movie production trailers at the Red Lion Inn in Rohnert Park which were 300 feet out our back door. Lots of movies were made in the Sonoma-Napa Valley CA areas.

One of her favorite people was the Grand Jury Foreman who lived across the street from us in Reno, Nevada. She would bolt across the street whenever she saw him and a door was open.

A funny story about Ashes. https://www.talkofthevillages.com/fo...+virginia+lake It has some pictures of Ashes when she was in Reno, Nevada as well.

19 years is very old for a Dalmatian. Our last Dally lived to be 13 but I would be NOTHING but happy if Jake lives to 19.

That is quite a funny story and some great pics. He has never bit his tail but he does sometimes like to chew on his toes. NOTHING that draws blood though.

I sure was worried about a cop stopping me with all the blood dripping off the windows. I would have had some explaining to do and not for NOTHING.

Yep, she's been gone for about 10 years now - wow, in figuring that out, I can't believe it! She was the perfect dog - a rescue and so well behaved. We have not been able to bring ourselves to get another one because she was so easy. I was afraid we'd never get one that good again. My husband used to call her the considerate dog because she would be so careful walking around the house so as to not bump into anything and knock it over. She was very observant of our reactions, never wanting to disappoint or upset us. It was like having the perfect child - lol. She was with us for 16 years, essentially grew up with our son. He cried like a baby when she died. We were all heartbroken. :cry:

There's so much more I could say but don't want to bore you. Instead I'll just finish by saying NOTHING except thanks again for sharing your doggies with us.

Seems you've had your share of dogs throughout the years, Tal. NOTHING but another beautiful one in those pictures. What a wild story too......:22yikes:

We would like NOTHING more than to get another pet when we move to TV but if we manage to travel as much as we hope, we just don't want to have to kennel or have someone come take care of them..

Keeping her birthday memory is NOTHING but what a true Den mother would do.

That's kind of where we're at with the thought process too. I told my husband maybe we should take up dog sitting or dog walking when we move to TV. Then we can have the enjoyment without the full-time responsibility. We actually were asked to come down to TV and house/dog sit over Christmas last year for a couple we met through friends of ours. We would have jumped at the opportunity if I could have figured out the logistics with getting there and getting off work. I would like NOTHING more than to spend time in TV in December one of these years. If for no other reason than to see some of the awesome decorations.

Hmm.. Maybe we'll get a pet after all. We now know who to call to house and pet sit. NOTHING but a perfect solution. lol

We have quite a few neighbors who do this. They also do not want to have a dog of their own but will gladly take care of the dogs in the neighborhood when their parents travel. It is NOTHING but great for us and we try to help them in other ways.
