Thursday, August 26 (today) is National Dog Day.
Share a photo or bio of the dog in your life. 
I’ll start:
Meet Huron, rescued Halloween 2020.
Favorite activity: going on car trips.
My love language: putting front paws on human legs so you can pet me! This means I like you!
(Sorry about the wrong orientation of the photo. Not sure how to fix that!).
Keeley and Bailey, longhaired dachshund sisters from the same litter, celebrate middle age. Adopted 1 1/2 years ago from an older couple no longer capable of caring for them. They are models of caring for and respecting each other despite having very different personalities.
Russell is a three year old Schweenie. He’s got the most unique personality of any dog I’ve ever had. He’s more people than dog.
Here @momofboiler1 he’s a cutie.
Thanks for sharing! I don’t have a dog currently (hoping to change that after we move), seeing the dog pictures makes me smile!
Also a dog “in your life” doesn’t have to reside “in your house”!!! 
Can it be a cat? 🐈⬛ She follows me from room to room all day… 
Just kidding! I love all these pictures!
Our long time dog died Memorial Day 2020. DD’19 spent a lot of time over the summer looking for a new one online. She found Sadie at the shelter in her college town a year ago today on her birthday. We got her Labor Day weekend.
This is Hawk. Long after he was gone I found a roll of undeveloped film (who remembers rolls of film?!!) - I took it in and this photo was on it…turns out my (then 11 year old) D had dressed him up for “a photo shoot” - he’s wearing her tie-died camp t-shirt, backpack and some sunglasses. To my eye he looks a bit mortified, but I also can’t help realize how patient he was with her. Miss him.
We’re getting this little guy, an Australian shepherd, on Monday. 
Haven’t named him yet, but my Facebook friends have given me a ton of suggestions. Our other dog is named Jazz, so we want a name that goes with that concept. Louie is my favorite so far, for Louis Armstrong.
This is my grand dog, Hot Boi Herc. He is a 5 year old pyrador that my D got as a rescue.
The photo in my name is my beloved Stacy who passed 6 years ago (I can’t bring myself to get another dog, so I get my dog fix from Herc).
This is our sweet dog, Foster, who passed away last month unexpectedly at the age of 9. Our daughter took this photo. She is taking photos at her friend’s wedding next year (she won’t be the main photographer but she’ll take as many as she can while being maid of honor). In return, the friend, who is already doing well as an artist, will do a painting of Foster.
Thank you!
Our guys might have been separated at birth. Right age.
Eta: you can’t tell by the angle, but they have the same tail and body structure, and look about the same size.
