That’s man as in human. The love of dogs is by no means "a guy thing".

I’m deliberately ignoring the “start with a single post” guideline on this challenge due to my obvious bias on this topic. Please feel free to do the same - with any topic you feel strongly about. Any challenge thread can always have new additions too.

Oh well I just have to post something I saw today that had my eyes filling up.

OK, Owly1, it made me tear up too. Great post.

Pure joy.....

Teaching time.....

Came across this again elsewhere and while at first it looks like it has nothing to do with dogs it's actually the dog that steals the show and might just raise a smile.

Hey, cute!

Owly....thanks for the cartoon....I've just spent the past hour watching more of the crazy things.

BG...what's happened to those dogs...they're all splotchy. Must be something wrong with the breed.

@RotR-

EYE of the Beholder - I accept full responsibility for recognizing the Beagle as the most perfect breed of dog. :-)

Here are a few more beagle pics to peruse. If you would like to see more, I can send you a copy of the folder of my favorite 52 beagle pictures. :-)

From Westminster Kennel Club:

2008 - Ch. K-Run's Park Me in First becomes the first Beagle ever and the first Hound in 25 years to win Best in Show at Westminster. His victory sets off a year-long celebration dubbed "Beaglemania" by the media.

"Uno" becomes the first Westminster winner to be invited to the White House, visiting President and Mrs. Bush in May, and later visits Texas Gov. Rick Perry at the capital in Austin.

He rings the bell to open the NASDAQ market, throws out the first pitch at major league baseball games in Milwaukee and St. Louis, is a celebrity headliner at various events, and visits children, soldiers, and other patients in hospitals and health care facilities around the country. In November, he rides on the Peanuts/United Media float in the world-famous Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
