I've had a Dog most of my life. Had a Irish Setter/Spaniel mix when I was a kid. He had a sweet tooth and used to love to jump into the Hall Bakery Truck, in S Buffalo, and grab whatever looked good, and take off!
I'm on Golden Retriever #6 now. He's a rescue dog from the Animal Shelter. I think he may have run away from whomever had him before, and that's how he ended up in a shelter. All the previous dogs, except the first one, were rescue dogs, and they were all great!
