Years and years of happy times and memories, but after the last, i said i would never get another dog. They just end up dying and breaking your heart. I had lost two dogs just six months apart. One to cancer, and the other to kidney failure, then my last dog two years ago to cancer.
Hubby had been saying how he wanted to get another dog, but i kept saying no. I didn't want to go through the loss again. Well, that was until i got a look at Spice.
Our friends Chihuahua had two pups in October, one tan and one white. Their kids named them Pumpkin and Spice, so the name stuck. We ended up with Spice- Hubbys dog.
We had mostly medium sized dogs, with the exception of my Maltese. This is the smallest dog now weighing about 4 pounds.

Ive always had cats. I had one dog and it was a Yorkie. He was the best. Of course the butthead had to run out of the door and away he went. Never found. I filled the void with cats. 13 of them. Now I have no cats and another dog. Got her two years ago. Another yorkie of course.

@Debscrochet She is a heathen. Haha! She thinks she is a big dog. Tries to guard the house. She also enjoys shirts. She was a shark for Halloween last year.

Even we wanted to have a pet free life after what we went through just like you. But in walks this tiny bit called puppy. She follows us and it was love at first sight. We named her Preiti
She is now around 10 a perfect lady and a great companion.

I prefer some dog, especially toy breeds. I would love to have a collie, but the hair would be messy. I have always been leery of big dogs.

I had three Keeshounds. Mid sized dogs, lovable, but very furry. Such a difference in fur too with the little one.
