We're way overdue for a dog picture thread. Let's see your special canine companion!
For the first time in my life, I live in a house with a watchdog. This is Fang:

He's a longhair Chihuahua, a breed of dog I never thought I could get attached to. I've never known a more laid-back dog than Fang. He's not high strung at all. Just quiet and affectionate. He barks so rarely, I hardly know what it sounds like.
= new reply since forum marked as read
I am like you - never thought I could deal with a little yappy ankle-biter, but my son brought Frida home a year or so ago and I am totally smitten. She isn't yappy or obnoxious at all - damn smart, tough, and more stamina than the work dogs!
Frida, aka Tinky
the illegal alien, Lupe (brought her up from Chihuahua sin papeles)
and the mutant, Dumbass
his feet are as big as dinner plates and the front is splayfooted - his tongue hangs out about a foot when he gets hot. His tail is a scritchy skinny stick that doesn't go with his huge body. He is a freaking mutant.
old family tradition to use up the easter egg coloring on the pets
I can assure you while the other animals around here know what we are talking about a lot of the time, Dumbass does not. He really is his name. He is a good dog and even useful sometimes because he does whatever the other dogs are doing. He is scary looking and has a deep bass, earth-shaking woof which is intimidating to potential intruders, but the reality is he is as dumb as a post.
unlike me, he looks way better in pictures than in person. But yeah he makes us smile (and LOL) a lot.
Best dogs ever! 
He just looks sad because ha had not had anything to eat in the previous five minutes. I swear the dog would eat non stop if we let him. Unlike Fang, this one barks at everything. He watches TV so he can bark at animals when they come on.
that look!
I won the dog lottery when I rescued this dog.
I was going to find her a home, but it took me a year to get her well...
and by then we were attached at the hip <3
Smart and sweet.....so very sweet. loves everybody.
doesn't bark much unless there's something I need to know.
strong as an ox. she's only 50 lbs, but could pull me down the street if I let her.
She has pulled me down before.
Her tail is always wagging...and it's long....it bumps into things.
I took her to the pet store and I was afraid her tail was going to knock everything off the shelves.
She's so unaware of where that thing goes.

Angry cocker: For the ‘12 Mittens duration, I am submitting this angry cocker spaniel for use as the representative of all dogs. This pic was in the local paper's Sunday available-for-adoption a few years ago. He was taken by the time I called. He is thoroughly pissed, not, I hope, the reason he ended up in the shelter, but rather for being subjected to the indignity of doggie jail.
O.K., *this* is the one, but they were puppies back then:
playing tug-of-war this afternoon.
Ty is the poodle and Abby the Boston terrier.
Love of my life.
Here he is at 6 months of age with Mr. Lobster that I made to cover one of his wiggly giggly balls. He's giving me the fish eye because he was thinking I was going to take Mr. Lobster away for more surgery again (here I had just finished remaking the tail and finally able to give it back to him though two days later I had to remake the whole thing. Oh, and that little bald spot on his arm is because he had recently had his neutering surgery, and that's where the IV line went in (that's how I'm sure he's 6 months old here).
Here he is doing the daily toy inventory (which he sometimes does more than once a day). Every day at some point he goes around the house and collects all his toys in a pile and just lays there with them rearranging the the toys in some mysterious way that makes some kind of sense to him. Excuse the mess... I was refinishing furniture at the time.
Ooops, wrong end. In any case in this one he's beating up on Mr. Lobster again after which he buried him under his binkie and sat on him (he does that with all his toys for some reason). And yep, poor Mr. Lobster had to go back into emergency surgery again (good thing I still have about two yards of that red material left!).
This is Yoshi's nose. This is what most of the pictures I try to take of him end up coming out as though usually it's not completely mashed on the camera lens so you can see he has nostrils. When the camera comes out he's so excited to have his picture taken he's get a bit too exuberant wanting a close-up.
