It's the weekend! How about some more dogs?

All I want out of life is to be the man my English Springer Spaniel thinks I am. The House of Parker has a new one coming this fall. I'm so happy!

You take the huddled masses...I'll take dogs every time.

True Peace

Inner Peace
If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,

If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,

If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,

If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,

If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without alcohol,

If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,



...Then You Are Probably








The Family Dog!





And you thought I was going to get all spiritual

Underwater dogs.

My dog, ducks and my grandson last Sunday. That is pretty much the trifecta for me.

This is probably the most beautiful puppy picture I have ever seen...and it is my dog.

My new buddy "Sophie" comes next month.

Watch this Power Point. True beauty.

Dogs!

I love dogs.

Holy Sh**!

This is the greatest and most touching video I have ever seen. This is why we love dogs.

Faith the Dog.

It is all I can do not to weep when I see this dog. You can see more on this incredible dog at http://faiththedog.info/

This is why we love dogs.

Dogs vs. Women: Part I

Why are dogs better than women?......

My loyal, faithful and trusty dog Misiu has passed away.

The greatest dog in the world has left me. My dog Misiu (Me-shoe), which is Polish for little teddy bear, has died from an insulnoma which is a tumor on her pancreas. This caused her insulin levels to soar and generated hypoglycemia. We controlled it for a while but the bigger the tumor got, the crazier went the insulin levels until we could no longer keep her blood sugar high enough to survive. I include two pictures of her. One with my other trusty companion, her half brother, Spanky who I lost a few years ago. They are hanging out in my 1971 Bronco that I restored. The other is her and I in a pheasant field in Indiana after a successful hunt. She was deadly for ducks and birds and the most loving creature ever in the house. Don't suppose I'll ever have another dog as great as she. It is a cruel thing that a hunter and his dog do not live the same lifetimes. Losing a hunting companion who would do anything you asked and do everything it could just for your approval and pleasure is worse than dying the death of a thousand stings. I include the video from Jimmy Stewart. The House of Parker is in deep mourning.

One year gone by since my loving, loyal and trusty canine son Spanky passed on.

My loving, loyal and trusty canine son Spanky has been gone now for one year. It still hurts like hell. In the 365 days since he went away I have probably thought of him 300 of those days...and had 300 lumps in my throat.

All I want out of life is that the Lord helps me to be the man my dog thinks I am.

My loyal and loving canine daughter Misiu is now 14 1/2 and has trouble walking from arthritis. I suppose more pain is right around the corner. It is part of the deal and I accept it. Watch this video. If you are a dog lover, it is going to make you weep.
