The *new* dream pet thread....

I know Technodoll had started a thread like this awhile ago....but I can't find it (ok, ok, I'm too lazy to look!!)

So who's YOUR dream petfinder (or rescue) pet? Consider that there aren't ANY restrictions (even if the ept is far away, or you don't have room, or your husband or wife wouldn't let you, etc....) Dream away!

I'm so in love with this girl.....

:cloud9: Sid.:sad:

Isn't he so gorgeous? I usually a little afraid of white boxers (bad experience as a kid), but this guy really tugs at my heartstrings too :o

Yes he is gorgeous.but i'm at my house hold limit:sad:

Given that I now know a tonne more about dog training I'd be willing to give another Husky a try. This guy is super cute, as typical for Husky pups the owner didn't try hard enough and just gave him up.

OMG Reading Litsa's story almost made me cry... :sad: She and her two sisters were thrown over the shelter fence, here sisters have been adopted now. Litsa is very shy, but friendly. Damn how much I wish I could have another dog right now, I would love to give this girl the love she deserves. :sad:

OH and Treagle...
He's a local guy and is not on petfinder and im not sure if I can post the link to the rescues site:shrug:
http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h154/erykah1310/treagle.jpg
He is a treeing walker coonhound, and has been in this rescue since he was a pup. I met him once reading meters, hes a great guy and having it a bit rough at his foster home ( they are great but the neighbours are &%%@*$%!) Good with other dogs and loves people.

Sorry about the picture quality. Its the only one on the site of him.
Heres a bit of info on the breed.

I absolutely adore Fergus from the BRQ....

http://www.boxerrescuequebec.com/fergus.cfm

I really wish I was able to buy a farm and take on some of the senior horses and dogs that don't have homes. Give them rest and peace for their final years. :sad:

How about a "PMU" foal? Poor babies. :sad: :mad:

http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=3685375

This dog I know as I walked with him on one of our Harmony Valley walks, he is also being fostered by my trainer. He is absolutely gorgeous, is a great mover. Wonderful boy.

Smokey and Fluffy. My work has boarded Fluffy for a year now, and Smokey for almost as long. We all adore these two kids and if I had a house, I would take them both home with me in an instant (and bring them back to work everyday as I do my two current dogs).

I feel so bad for these animals...:sad:

It's a matter of space for me. I'm currently in a 884 square foot condo, so it's just big enough for my Lhasa and Kris and I. We're planning on buying a house with a yard in the next few months. I want at least two more dogs....Kris wants boxers, and I told him he could have whatever he wanted, as long as they were rescues; either from the local SPCA or the Boxer Rescue Site. Lucky for me, he agreed :D

If I had my way, I'd adopt a hundred dogs...

Angeldogs, it's hypothetical.:D I think most of us are at our limit...:o

Some of mine...

I LOVE the EARS!!!


I know there :crazy: and when she runs it looks like she is going to take flight!

Prin Daisy is adorable, her eyes remind me so much of my Brandy's (wonder if she talks as much as my girl)

This is my dream dog. A Caucasian Ovcharka that lives in a zoo in Romania. Such terrible conditions and treatment for this animal. Most likely another case of someone who did not do their homework and purchased a breed that they were not able to handle
http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p275/clwhal/370ko3.jpg

Look at the eyes! They look like they have a story!

Beautiful!

This is my dream dog. A Caucasian Ovcharka that lives in a zoo in Romania.

He's kept in a zoo ? :sad:

He's kept in a zoo ? :sad:

Yep, he lives in a zoo, and not as a guard dog, he is actually one of the displays. If, and that is a very big if, I ever have enough funds this fellow is going to be on a plane and living at my house. :D
Just look at the state of his coat:sad: :sad:

Prin, Daisy looks so sad. :sad:

I couldn't stop thinking about Litsa last night. :sad: I really truly wish there was a way I could take her. :sad:

A blind 6 year old who has been waiting a few years for his adoptive family originally he was listed with his dad as an adoption pair since his dad was acting as his eyes, I guess Bill passed away without getting his foverever home :(

http://www.almost-heaven.org/fosterpics.htm

OG that just broke my heart.:sad:

For me, it'd be Miss Daisy

http://www.basenjirescue.org/DOGS-MIXES/PA/PA-Daisy.asp

Small excerpt from her writeup...

Daisy's family has moved in with the grandparents who already have two old dogs. Daisy tried to play with them but they do not like her. So now she spends her days either crated or tied outside. She gets bored and digs holes while outside to entertain herself. It soon will be cold outside and Daisy loves the warm house and doesn't like being tied outside. Daisy's family wants to find her a home with a secure fenced in yard where she can be free to run and play.


It breaks my heart. Mainly because I think she'd be a great addition, but we can't manage an addition at this time. :sad:

puppy? Did anyone say puppy??

http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=7976854

I wasn't going to post this....I decided on the cute puppy instead....but this guy's story should be told (I won't post it so people don't have to read it if they don't want)...this is why people suck.

Anyone going to Ohio?
http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=4234308

I already posted this one once, he's still up for adoption :sad: http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=3193457

Jessi -- I love Daisy's ears!! Imagine if we got her together with Melissa (the dog that Toonces posted)???? :lovestruck:

awww, Frenchy -- he has such kind eyes. I hope someone AMAZING really steps up for him :fingerscr

awww, Frenchy -- he has such kind eyes. I hope someone AMAZING really steps up for him :fingerscr

Both him and the Great Dane have horrible stories but it is now in the past. Thanks to their rescuers.

THat is sad, it is amazing how many feel super fearful dogs should be put down.
Dogs like Maya were routinely put down with the belief they were unadoptable and that they could not relax enjoy life and adapt to home life. A bit of hard work, lots and lots of patience, the right companions and she proved otherwise, I send pictures back to the track Maya came from to prove that these dogs can adapt and enjoy life

I had a pair of cockatiels before, years ago, and I'd love to have another! Or at least budgies! Why is :stork-baby: the only bird availble as a smilie?

Okay, that's enough for now, you guys are going to get me into big trouble.

Time to go and protest my right for fuzzy love.lol:lovestruck:

I don't know why, but I have a weakness for special needs Pekes, ever since "Pickles"..for those of you who know who Pickles was.

Anyway, look at these 2 darlings..it breaks my heart to not be able to go rescue them :sad: The first one is a "sleeve" Pekingese and I've never heard of them until now. I think I have found my new favorite breed :cloud9:

She's a cutie! (but I hope she doesn't start a trend...:o)

My husband and I want to rescue a large breed dog someday (right now we can only handle a small dog, so hence our little Helix!). Here's a puppy that I would absolutely LOVE and he's going to be huge- he's some sort of husky/karelian bear dog/ malamute/ great pyrenese cross.

http://www.petfinder.com/fotos/AB42/AB42.7748451-1-x.jpg

I also love this husky mix (adult):

And another puppy (she's so cute!):

http://www.petfinder.com/fotos/MN206/MN206.7700480-1-x.jpg

There are so many many more, I'm sure we won't have a problem finding our next "dream dog" when we're ready :)
