Today we took the dogs on a walk. A few weeks ago, we got this great backpack for Mocha on wicked sale. It has bladders on either side we fill with water and it has spigots to pour it out from. So we loaded her up and put our own water bottles in there and went for a 3-mile walk at a local park. She loved it! Newfoundlands are born to be work dogs and she really had a great time. Did not bother her a bit. The temperature was in the low 70ยบ’s and we stopped to rest and drink along the way. They say Newfies can easily carry a third of their weight. On May 1 she was 75 pounds (the same weight 12 year old Jasmine was when she died) but what she was carrying was nowhere near 25 pounds. And tonight we are the proud parents of two tuckered out dogs!

I'd say you really love your dogs especially since you are now referring to yourselves as "proud parents". Very funny and nice.
The dogs are like our kids. I guess someone with a cat could feel the same way. BUT, no way does that work for hamsters, rabbits or fish!
I used to love my fish very much... Until Doug finally gave in and let us have a dog. Then they weren't quite as interesting.
