Let's get this party started! Sam Sam is a good boy because even though he suffered a gunshot wound as a stray in North Carolina and had to have his back left leg amputated, he is still the happiest, sweetest, cuddliest dog that we possibly could have rescued and spends most of his free time on his back, like below, chewing on a toy and getting foot rubs.

Bernie (in the back). Bernie is a good dog because he only wants to chase the neighbors' cats, and not my own. Also Bernie is named after Bernie Parent.

Right click on the picture itself and click on Copy Link Address (or Image Address), or open the pic in a new tab and copy the URL from there. Then put it in [img][/img] tags This is Patches. My parents rescued him a few years ago, and were told at the time that he was thought to be 8 years old. We think it's more likely that he's around 8 now. He was thought to be a terrier/shih-tzu mix but we're not even certain on that. He's a good boy because he's typically quiet, can walk on his hind legs to beg for food, and he's a lap dog which ladies dig (and they love his eyebrows).

EL CAPITANO Cappi is a good dog because he was rescued from Puerto Rico. Despite being pulled away from a life of eating scraps, stealing drink, and banging bitches on the beach, he is very happy with his new home. He loves wearing sweaters (he has a "bone" sweater, a "cats suck" sweater, and "dapper dog" sweater). When he was rescued they said he was 2 years old but he acts like he's in his mid 40s. He has poor boner control, but we love him still.  Though a native Spanish speaker, he knows some commands in English and French as well! Is your doggo so good he speaks three languages?

Terra Terra is a good dog because she's 14 years old but is definitely not a distinguished old lady. Like when she found 5 inches of mud and decided that lying down in it was definitely a pro move. Especially since we drove to the park and had no way to wash her off before she had to go back in the car.

Ivy Ivy is a good dog because she was born without eyes due to some horrible irresponsible puppy mill operator but she still dogs as hard as any dog even though she often winds up running into things or stuck on top of things (as she is here).

 This is Iggy aka IggNasty aka Iggy Monster aka The Notorious I.G.G. He's pretty much the best dog I've ever known. He likes watching basketball (specifically the Butler Bulldogs) and animal shows. He loves to play with his cat brothers and take lots of naps. When he goes to daycare, he constantly barks unless he gets put with the big dogs because he thinks he's a big dog. pubic works project fucked around with this message at 16:06 on Mar 3, 2017 |

Can we have a Top Cat Tournament too? Cuz I've got a cat that loves to watch basketball and even tries to block shots on the TV. He's the perfect SAS mascot.

Pudding is a Very Good Dog. He is a good dog because he is originally from Taiwan but made the trek via 4 separate planes all the way across the Pacific to his new home.  Also he is a good boy because he is the best at curling up to you to sleep, and look at those eyes!

I'll nominate my dog Maggie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntIQ24ZhwQA Bet you've never seen a dog run that fast before, huh?   All that running would knock her rear end out. Pics at like 2 months old.  Looking stylish in her barka. Now she's like 10 months. She's a good dog.

Caesar Caesar is a heroic if dimwitted, deformed beast, made in the vein of T.H. White's Lancelot, bravely prepared to take on airplanes, cars, and dogs 5 times his size, all in the defense of our home.

Maggie responds to all kinds of dumb things we call her instead of her actual name. Wiggly, Miss Magoo, Miss Currfluffles, etc.
