A purebred Chihuahua that rarely barks, I got lucky apparently! I bought him at a store in Japan, being able to walk into a store and buy cats and dogs is one of the reasons there are so many animals being killed here.
I have no good pics of him. Just videos of me bothering him. His names Teddy and he's a Yorky/Shi tzu/Maltese mix and just turned 10 months 3 days ago. Has a twin brother. I'll try to get better pictures.
I don't have any pets but tonight I saved two frogs that found their way inside the building where I work. If I hadn't they would be dried up frog mummies by tomorrow.
They're kind of rescues, but it's more like I left the door open and a couple of stray kittens who were hanging around came in for a visit and spent the night under the sink without us knowing and we ended up keeping them. For six years and counting now. It was hard not to. There was another sibling (Nana, the first three consonants in the Korean alphabet are analogous to G, N and D, thus Gaga, Nana, Dada) but she stopped coming one day. Stray cats have a hard life in Korea. It's getting better all the time though. There's more awareness, shelters and adoption happening than ever.
This is my guard dog Rambo. His registered name is John J. Rambo. He has over 35 confirmed kills. Rumor is, he was a cop dog, and cops used to roll up to drug houses, crack the door, and throw Rambo in. They knew it was safe to enter when the human screams stopped. He is a Chihuahua mixed with Dauschand (Weener dog). His official breed is Chi-Weenie.

My family and I had to take our cat, Dragon, to the vet to be euthanized three days ago due to kidney failure. June 2005 - August 23rd 2016. It's like we lost a family member.
I'd like to post a picture of my huge, lovely, kind, smart, funny and adorable bernese mountain dog. He's the first dog me and family got, and although we were a close family before, this guy just brought us even closer together. It's a weird and beautiful thing how much impact a dog can have on your life.
Sadly, he passed away in February of this year. It broke my heart in a way nothing ever has. That guy just had the ability to light up every day with just his presence. Even when he was diagnosed with cancer, he was the one who kept our moods up, and if we cried, he'd come and lick the tears off our faces. Man, even just writing this makes me tear up.
Needles to say, it was a tough period. But after a few months of grieving, we were ready to get another dog, so around the end of May, this little cutie joined our family.
We decided to go with a girl this time around, just to avoid any comparisons. She's just a bundle of joy, and has brought so much to us in so little time. I still miss the old boy like crazy, but getting this little girl has been very helpful.
@bojackhorseman: Sorry to hear about your loss. It sucks loosing a pet, I don't think some people get how much of an impact they have on family life and how much they add to it.
This is my dog Joop, 3 y/o female Greyhound. She is my third Greyhound, the last 2 (Mac and Myrtle) were both ex-racers, Joop was a re-home from a family that could not commit to her. She sleeps a lot and runs fast. Greyhounds are great dogs and ex-racers need good homes. Yes, Greyhounds lie like this all the time. Not very lady like.
I don't post images on here ever, so if I break anything just, someone yell at me, these are my current pets, the dog is Holly, I don't know what she is, never really cared about breed, just personality. The others are my rats! I've owned dogs all my life, but rats are new, they are adorable, I did a bunch of research on them, and then someone stuck one into my hands and my heart melted. The white one is Chloe, the spotted one is Rowdy Ratty Piper.
@bojackhorseman:Sorry for your loss, that is a beautiful picture of your dog though, like print it off, get it framed, put it on the wall beautiful.
This is Diablo. My sister gave him to my mom 8 years ago. Turns out my mom did not really want a dog. Funny thing is, even as a puppy it won't leave my side, so I took him. Stubborn old dog went grey around the mouth before I did. Take that father time. His stubbornness also earned him the moniker Burro-man.
@zolroyce: That very picture is hanging at home in the living room. Funny thing, my dad took that picture, and although he never has been much of a photographer, he really knocked it out of the park with that one. My brother studied journalism for a while and had that picture as his desktop background, and his photography teacher dropped his jaw when he saw it.
