Hi everyone!
I'm Tammy and just found this site.  I'm from Alaska (for now, lol).  I'm an army wife so we'll live here until we are told to move on.  My husband and I have to girls and our dog Bear who is a Newfoundland we rescued from the pound.  We've had Bear for 2 years now and can't imagine our life without his big slobbery face!  I look forward to getting to know you all!
Tammy ;D

I miss AK so much ! I used to love going to Hatchers Pass to hike or ski .... But I couldn't have my horses up there so I don't mind being back in the "lesser 48" again  ;)

Hi there! Whereabouts in Alaska are you? I am moving to Fairbanks this Summer, and would appreciate a vet recommendation, if you don't mind.

I am SO jealous that you have a newf! I want a giant drooly hugmonster! As it is, I am waiting to move before I can start scouting through the shelters and humane societies for my furry beastie. I can't wait!

Welcome to BPO!  I am Ronda, and my avatar is a puppy pic of our Rotty named Badger!  We have a new bullmastiff PUPPY on the way, and we have no life other than dog related stuff! 
You will love it here, everyone is really supportive, positive and very knowledgable!

Welcome Tammy and Mr. Bear --

I'm Sarah, and my sweet boy is Einstein, a South Russian Sheepdog (pound puppy).  We're in Houston, Texas and when I saw you're in Alaska, I thought maybe we should come visit!  Just kidding, of course.
