« on: April 05, 2007, 11:29:33 am »
Hello Everyone,
I'm so excited to find you guys,My family and I recently rescued an Otterhound,We don't believe she is a purebreed.She is believed to be around 4 years,Which is somewhat in my favor because she came with very good manners and housebroken.I grew up having larger dog's but as an adult I've only had small dogs.
I look forward to chatting with all of you.

Schelmischekit ty,
Annabelle is currently 56 pounds,I'm not sure what her actual size should be,Some sites have said that the female should be around 80 pounds other sites have said around 65-70.I'd prefer the lesser considering she likes to jump on the bed in the morning when she hears the alarm.
I forgot to mention that I do have 3 human children,All girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello and welcome!

My name is Chris, and my crew consists of Keiko, an almost 9 yr old husky/shep mix, Gunther, a 2 yr old great dane, and Nigel and Posey, two 1 yr old rat terriers...... ....and an array of other critters.

From that pic, she reminds me of a pyrenean shepherd/sheepdog........although they are a bit smaller than that.  Very cute.

Welcome and congratulation s on your new addition.  Annabelle is adorable & she has such a sweet, expressive face! I'm glad that you are giving her a loving home. I'm new to posting (as of yesterday) but I've been lurking for awhile and I think that you'll be amazed by the support that you'll find here.  

Oh, and I'm mom to 3 skin kids, 2 pyrs, 1 golden ret.mix, our kitties, and buddy to my hubby.

I'd beg to differ, lol. EVERYONE tells me how much easier boys are. I think it's just the WAYS in which they are different. Boys are mucho easier in some respects, but not so independent, that means no cuddles from my girls, at least at as babies/toddlers:'( :'(

Schelmischekit ty,
You may want to rethink the trade,My girls are 14,11,and 10.
My mom always said that my brother was easier than my sisters and I.I have to agree with that statement.
