(22,934 posts)118. My dogs past and present
Boots the "Wonder Dog" - a Beagle/Terrier mix, loyal friend and so quick with catching a tennis ball. November 1970- April 1983

Smokey - Frisbee champ extraordinaire and the smartest dog we ever had. We think he was part border collie. His mother was a stray and looked like a full German Shepherd. He "talked" to us and I think he thought he was human. We had so many adventures with him including a year long camping trip around the continent. Died way too young. March 1979 - March 1987

Misty - Lab/Shepherd Mix, loved to swim, genuinely sweet dog, if you knew her, you loved her. Litter mate with Ranger and hiked too many trails with us to count. April 1987 - September 2000

Ranger - Lab/Shepherd Mix, my "best boy", constant companion and did so many hikes with us in his long life. He passed away on Valentine's Day 2003 at nearly 16 years old. April 1987 - February 2003

Cindy Catahoula Leopard - not a mean bone in her body. She loves to play boomer ball and play catch with other balls and would have made a great search and rescue dog. Enjoys keeping an eye on her territory and alarming for deer and bears. Born January 2003

Murphy Australian Cattle Dog, our "little dude" loves to run and play fight with his "sister" Cindy, hide and seek is his favorite game and he really loves his toy cow that moos. Really should have gotten him into agility training as he needs a job. Born February 2003
