My family has always had dogs since I was a baby & I can't imagine life without them. Right now we have 6, which is a lot, but I love them all!
First, is
Izzie. She's a 5 yr old Yorkie, & she's my buddy. We almost lost her about a year ago to a terrible bout of pancreatitis, but she made a miraculous recovery & I thank God every day for her! My nickname for her is Fluffy (or Fluffypants, Fluffington, etc.)
The next Yorkie is
Chloe, she'll be 2 this month. She's completely neurotic, but she's sweet enough to make up for it! I call her Chlo-Chlo. (Her hair is much shorter now).
The littlest Yorkie, @ 3 lbs, is
Honey. She's adorable & she knows it. I usually call her Honeybun, HoneyBunny, Bunny Foo Foo, HoneyBooboo, etc.
Next is my Rat Terrier,
Sheena. At nearly 17 years old, she's ancient, but still in pretty decent shape. I refer to her, affectionately, as "Grandma" because she's old

The pic is from 3-ish years ago.
Then there's my
Lilly, a 2 yr old Border Collie who loooooves herding cattle. She's my baby, I usually refer to her as "Baby girl," or "Lillian" if she's being bad (Lillian isn't her name, it just sounds good).
Our sixth dog is Hyde, a 2 yr old Blue Heeler/Border Collie mix. He's VERY energetic, a little crazy & my Dad's only male companion among the dogs. He works cattle, & is Lilly's best dog friend.
Then there's Shelby, the first cat I have ever owned. I've never cared much for cats, so it was a surprise to me when I met Shelby and liked her! She's sweet, & she cracks me up with her kitty ways.
