Bling Bling
Four giant hooves, a white coat and a rather insatiable appetite for fruits. I never thought it was possible to form an everlasting friendship with an animal... for myself at least. I had pondered the meaning of what attachment really meant for a while in my young life but it seemed humans had been more focused on talking than listening.

The Best EmPAWyee
*Warning* You may very well be seeing the cutest and goodest girl this planet has to offer. This is basically just an excuse for me to show off how amazing my dog is. She's never done anything anyone would class as 'special', but she was special enough to win over all of our hearts.

Nieve
I called her Nieve at first, because she came two weeks before a big snowstorm. La nieve is the vocabulary word for snow, in Spanish, but I gave it a Slavic twist. A friend’s mom was going to the Republic of Georgia to teach politics and needed someone to take care of her. So, her name was said as one syllable. Nyev. She was white as snow, with blue eyes.

Missy.
Hello. This is Missy. Missy is my black and white, super friendly, super loveable Husky. She's 5 years old, and she's very talkative. We first got her when she was a puppy. Oh she was the smallest skinniest little thing! She was a tiny little thing with gigantic ears. Her one blue eye and her one brown eye immediately drew attention from passerbys. Not only that, but her happy energetic mood and her strong sense of independence caught a good few heads too. She loves to speak. When I say that, I really mean it. She can say 'Hello' 'I Love You' and she can also sing along. She's a very clever girl. She has a little sister called CoCo. But she's getting her own story, this ones about Missy. Missy understands me. Not only me but anyone who speaks to her. She can sense the change in mood and even the change in tone. As I said before, she's very clever.

Bongo Da Dog
Our eyes locked across the crowded room. The party was in full swing, music blaring, mixing with raised voices as all around us people were getting to know each other and flirting. But I only had eyes for him. And he only had eyes for me. I knelt to the ground as he hurled himself into my arms. He was the sweetest dog I’d ever met.

Benji and Me
When my wife died very suddenly , i was in a very dark as well as disturbing time in my life.I went into a severe depression and began to drink very heavily as a result of my depression.I would later become very isolated from the rest of my family,my friends,and my co workers.I desperately needed a friendly companion to help me deal and/or cope with my deep dark sadness that had built up in me.I had some suicidal thoughts that were slowly getting worse and worse every single day. Then one day as i was walking around my neighborhood, i spotted a very wounded dog that had been run over on the side of the road still breathing.I had to rush this dog over to the veterinarians as quickly as possible or else he would have certainly died.The vet treated him with medicine and told me he had a very low chance of living even after taking the medicine.Despite what the veterinarians have told me about him,i took him in anyway despite what they had said, and i have never been happier.He was very very lively when we got home from the veterinarian office. I decided to call my dog Benji,after the name of my favorite classic animal movie "Benji". At first we had somewhat rocky relationship at first,gradually it got better, and it then blossomed into a beautiful friendship.In order to get him properly trained, i sent him to a marginally expensive dog training class across town.The dog training lessons i sent him to went swimmingly for my now well behaved black scruffy furry friend. I really started to bond with benji during this time, really getting to know him for the better. I was becoming more physically more active than i ever was before thanks to him,the pain in my sore joints improved considerably and my mental health was very much rehabilitated.I traveled across the world with my little Benji,visiting every corner of the world with him as i can find.On one trip i met the new love of the life on one of those trips,she thought benji was cute when we first met, we got along with great considering we were both dog lovers and we have never been better together. My bond between my family and i have greatly one up at this time.I was becoming more socially active with my all my family and less isolated from them in general.I have began a great interest in photography and have taken some amazing photos of my dog as a result.I also have taken up painting classes making paintings of Benji and they as well as the photos ended up getting first at multiple fairs. In addition i also met some amazing new friends, while i was there with at those class sessions. My new friends were very supportive of me, along with giving me some very helpful advice on some advanced dog training for Benji,as they were also big dog lovers. I was more happy than i have ever been, since then before the day my wife tragically passed away.I walked Benji around with my family's dogs who i got along very well with daily,i made some great friends along the way, i untied with my now love of my life my beloved wife and i have meet my Best friend forever Benji. I don't know what would have become of me if i didn't meet him, but i will certainly never regret saving him that faithful day.This is the story i will never forget in my entire life thanks to him a story of Benji and Me.

Mittens the black cat
Well it all started when I moved into this new house in a new neighborhood. I had met the roommate already and she was nice and in a way reminded me of my old cat when I was a kid. Pure black and meows all the time! I didn’t see it coming, but a love affair was on the horizon apparently. I found myself coming into this house with no furniture to bring. My new housemate offered a friend of her’s second hand bed for $250. It sounded great! And when I saw the photo it seemed even greater. There was this black cat again that I had met lounging on the sofa when I inspected the house. She was walking on the bed and little did I know that this was a place where she’d often come.
