You and your dog(s)

After 34 years of marriage and 6 dogs, I know that dogs will always be a part of our lives. How about sharing some information on you and your dog(s). I will start. About you: marital status, # of children, # of grandchildren. About your dog(s): Name, breed Okay, here goes:

Marital status: Married (34 years)

Children: 1

Grandchildren: 0

Dogs: Scampi, Airedale (my dog)

Barney, Miniature Poodle (husband's dog)

Tracey, Shepherd (son's dog)

Bruno, Standard poodle (husband's dog)

Hondo, Labradoodle (my BEST dog ever)

Groucho Too, Goldendoodle (my dog)

Harpo, Australian Labradoodle (my dog)

As you can see, since we have discovered doodles, they are my dogs but we share all of them. How about you?

Okay, I like knowing about others so here goes.
Married: 40 years. ( yes I was a child bride)
Children: 2
Grandchildren : 2
Dogs;
Murphy. Goldendoodle. ( started out as mine, now DH's )
Bella. Goldendoodle ( started out as ours, but is all -mine)

These are the only dogs either of us have ever had in our whole lives! And I know that as long as we are physically fit enough to take care of a dog, we will always have one in our lives from here on out!

Married 38 years

No Children

1st dog - Mixed terrier - Mandy - Lived 17 years

2nd dog - Cookie also mixed terrier (Mandy's pup - born in my arms - died in my arms at age of 19)

3rd dog - Buster - also a mix - we think terrier and shepard - great dog - lost him suddenly at age 12

4th dog - Champ - Goldendoodle - wonderful dog - he is 16-/12

5th dog - Scooby - Labradoodle - terrific dog - 6 years old.

I have loved all of my dogs. When I had Cookie, I thought I could never love a dog as much as I loved her, seeing as she was born in my arms, but every dog seems to get better and better. I am so in love with the doodles, I don't see myself getting any other kind of dog from this point on.
