I just called the picture police and informed them that you are starting threads in the pictures, pictures, pictures,topic section without posting pictures. They said they will give you 24 hours and then it's off with your head.

Nah. He never knew he was an ugly puppy, all legs and ears, pointy nose and whippy tail and short coat. (Someone asked us once if we had shaved him) All he knew is that he was loved. And really we don't have pictures because well, he was the 3rd furkid...pictures become less important than the time you spend.

Keefer never did go through an awkward stage, he was always adorable and well proportioned. It seemed like everything but Halo's head grew first and it's finally starting to catch up - thank GOODNESS!

Pictures tonight! I rather like my head and want to keep it. I will have to get one from the back so you can all laugh with me

Seriously, I didn't mean to break any rules

thats not the ugly stage, he's a cutie!

Sage's entire life has been a stage where his ears are too big for his head, he had loose skin at times and other times he looked like a gangly wild coyote all skinny with long legs, skinny head, HUGE ears, rat tail he was still adorable IMO

Zeva's head did grow slight, but now her legs look too long. I still think she's too skinny. She's 44lbs now. *sigh* old mother hen. I worry and worry.
