Pets of any sorts are great. They are your companions. Your friends. Part of your family. Over the years I have had fish, birds, dogs, cats, and even a guinea pig. My favorite dog was one that just walked up one day. I was about 8 years old and immediately fell in love. She had no tags, but my mama said we couldn’t keep her and we had to find her a good home. Then we found out the dog was pregnant. I wanted puppies so bad! We had numerous cats over the years, but I had never seen true puppies first born. Mama agreed and we even named the dog “Mama”. Mama was a mutt, but she was beautiful and gave us 5 healthy puppies. We gave 4 of them away and kept one little girl. They both were with us for the rest of my childhood. It just goes to show you can never know when a wonderful pet can walk in and change your life. That’s my “Great Dog” Story and now Purina wants to hear yours!

My dog is a pound pup and a lover but I don’t think she could qualify as the “best dog” cause the best dog out there is always your own !

I had a dog named Spike when I was little. He was such a great dog…I still miss him sometimes. Mutts are the best!
