sad story ram prasad !! feel sorry about the whole incident ! I have 2 dogs back home. One's about 11 years old, and he has been with me since i was in 4th grade. My sister named him "Diamond" (which i thought was an unusual name for a dog, in the beginning). And true to his name, he turned out to be one "gem" of a dog. He's really a very cool dog, but now he's quite old and grayed in places. One thing, i feel sad about for him is that he might have to die a virgin ..... damn, a sad thought. From the time i have known the dog, he has not been allowed to wonder around outside on his own. (so assuming he's still virgin) (let me take advantage of this thread, and make a quick announcement here: any bitches out there looking for a good time with a dawg? contact me). Hope this helps Diamond, afterall he more than deserves a bitch by now. The second dog that was recently welcomed in our home was a small puppy, a year back. Since he was bitting off everything, from shoes to carpets and everything in sight, I named him "Tyson" (no puns intended). Well, i didn't get to know this particular dog very well, but I hope he turns out to be another good dog. Sometime after I came here, i heard my parents had taken in another puppy. (the cute type, with long hairs covering everything including the eyes sometimes). And i also heard he is such a menace at home. May be he's there to fill in my spot..... ;-) At times, i just ponder how come dogs can so darn loyal and loving all the time ?? (or atleast most of the time, unless you do sth to make him/her angry )
