Only big dogs allowed.

We're not quite sure what would happen if a Chihuahua owner posted at www.bigpawsonl y.com, but maybe we don't want to know. A bustling destination for those with large or giant dogs (23 inches tall and 60 pounds is the suggested minimum), the Web site hosts a number of discussion boards that cover everything from rescue to diet, as well as specific breeds. May the Newf be with you.

Actually that's how I found out about it. My mom called me up from NY and said "you have to check this out! Buddha would fit in perfect there, and maybe you can sneak Karma in since she's just under the 60lb limit"  :D

Oh, so, hi everyone. I'm new  :)

Sadly, I think it's what I do for a living.  Look things up on the web.  Wish it paid better LOL

Man I have so many pictures of them, its hard to pick just a few!

Karma (greyhound/lab mix... just shy of 2 years old)



and Buddha (newfoundland/lab mix... almost a year old)
These pics were taken when he was about 4 months... I'll get newer ones when I can, but he ate the cable that connects my digicam to my computer  :D
