@damselfly59 But but I have so many travel plans.....
I did talk to my friend and go to sitter and she gave me permission lol

@PurpleDragon phew. So where are we goin? Am your vicarious travel companion. Won't take up much room in your suitcase.😬

@damselfly59 No where for a while. Really busy with rescue event coming up and getting the house ready for winter (it's coming lol)
I'll keep you posted and will definitely be headed your direction sometime 😉

@PurpleDragon 🤗 bring the dogs😁

@damselfly59 🤔 will be on motorcycle sooooooooo 🤣

@PurpleDragon that’s a cool name for a dogo 🐕

@PurpleDragon
He heard you say that... those same ears. I bet there isn't a crinkly treat bag he doesn't hear.

@Keysalagain He actually knew nothing about treats 😟 My thought is someone got him as a cute little puppy and then he got huge so they dumped him. 🤬

@PurpleDragon I don't like the thought of him being dumped...BUT that means he made his way into your life. Which is good.

@Keysalagain Sadly happens more out here in the country. He did seem to know where to go tho lol

@PurpleDragon He's adorable, and deserves better than that name😆

@eliredman If he ends up staying I'll throw it out to the coso hive mind for suggestions lol

@PurpleDragon Oh! Is he a foster dog?

@eliredman He was a stray that had been wandering a few days. Came to my fence and barked so I coaxed him into the yard.
Will search for owner but in the meantime he's made himself at home 😊

@PurpleDragon 😍 Aww. Is he chipped?

@eliredman No he wasn't so I've been checking the lost dog pages but have a sneaky suspicion he was dumped.
In the meantime he's glued himself to me and if he stays I'm gonna have to buy a bigger bed lol

@PurpleDragon @eliredman

Thank you for saving him. I'm sure he was mere minutes from being eaten by aliens.

"Blue" is my default dog name recommendation.

@danalan @eliredman
Well I do live a ways north of Roswell...... sooooo......
If he stays I'll ask the coso folks for names, meanwhile I'm calling him Wifi. Because if my starlink ever goes out those ears will still get me netflix 😂

@PurpleDragon @danalan Well, I'm so glad you could take him in. 💕

@PurpleDragon @danalan Tim is a good name. 😉

@eliredman 😆 I already had a suggestion from the cookie monster @Kurtroedeger that Kurt would be a good name too

@PurpleDragon @eliredman

I am ready to throw down to defend that point.

::puts on rocky sound track::

::runs up Philly art museum steps::

::2 steps, run up two steps, stop, take cookie break::

@Kurtroedeger @eliredman
I think 2 steps is optimistic 😆

@PurpleDragon @eliredman of the cookies are at the top of those two steps 😝

@Kurtroedeger @PurpleDragon 😂

@PurpleDragon 😂 Sounds to me like he chose you.

@PurpleDragon @eliredman

💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

@PurpleDragon 😍 He's gorgeous! I grew up with a GSD, and I still miss her. Wonderful dogs.

@mims Not sure about regal, he's really silly lol
But yes I will definitely think of something better

@PurpleDragon
May I politely disagree💖

ALL GSDs are pretty dang regal. Even when they are being silly.
My husband's GSD girl who's in heaven now, his fave nickname for her was Dopey. Which she was not, though she could be so silly! But she was all business during her 7 yr Search &Rescue /Search &Recovery career, &was still all business but softer in her last 3 or 4 yrs as a therapy dog where she visited hospital patients &had little kids read to her & where she helped our dot 💖thru her cancer.

@PurpleDragon

So at least in my eyes, they are all regal!

We are so fortunate to have dogs - ANY dog! in our lives.

@mims Aww what a sweetheart 💜 So sorry for the loss, never easy.
I was joking btw, he is pretty regal. And really smart. When he gets more confidence that I'm not the human who betrayed him I'm going to find a class.
And I agree, as a dog owner and foster for almost 40 years they are the best and most humans don't deserve them 💝

@PurpleDragon

Thanks for your kindness. Kare (pronounced Cuddy)was a once in a lifetime dog, but she was definitely my DH's (dear husband's) dog! I was loved by her but those two worshiped the ground each other walked on. THAT was pretty funny & so special!

I had my four littles, (now down to three), and the big pupper girl loved & tolerated their antics quite well. Sot it all worked out.
1/2

@PurpleDragon

2/2

And here is the kicker (pretty much all dogs, - - and cats - - are healers on the energetic / spiritual levels) our dot got better (we're 8 years out now).
She is a trainer for the Aussie paraolympic swim team now and is just getting back home to AU from Paris...

There are no accidents, and there are no coincidences.

I'm so glad Wifi is with you now.

@mims That's awesome about your girl. She sounds like such a fighter.
I do think he showed up because my old girl Xena is 15.5 and has some issues 😟

@PurpleDragon

Yes, she is unspeakably awesome (yes, I know, I'm somewhat biased)

blessings to you and beauty boy who needs a better name and gratitude and love to Xena! Another warrior! ✨✨✨

@peeppeepcircus Wondering if one of my past dogs had a hand...🤔
