It's already 2 years ago I introduced #dogtober.
The reason for that was to also have a "counterpart" of the
already very popular #caturday here on Steemit.
Like I said back then:
'Nothing against cats.
But 52 two times a year a special day for cats here on Steemit !?!?
High time to put a 'man's best friend' a bit in the spotlight here as well'.
That's me with my (male) Boxer 'Dunga', a pic taken some 3 years ago.
Dunga went to dogheaven, only a couple of months after having
introduced #dogtober.
Last year October I didn't feel like posting about it.
Also to avoid questions about my best friend who had gone.
But even though I don't own a dog anymore, I'll always stay a dog lover.
So for those who have one, I want to "revitalise" DOGTOBER.
And to YOU, who has a dog and can show me below a picture of
YOU, TOGETHER WITH YOUR (BUDDY) DOG,
along with a little comment about race and age for example,
I'll not only transfer 2 Steem, but I'll also give you
my max upvote (around 50 to 57 ct).
Well this is embarassing...Ive been scrolling all up and down my camera for a pic with me and my caribbean beauty who still lives there, and I cant find any other than this one from us together, yeah the cheesy one from my profile. hahaha
But uhhh this is him alone... A brindle 'island' dog as we say
Although a bit far away ... Accepted! But what's so cheesy about it??
Upvoted and 2 Steem coming your way.
My dog hated water so much lol
More the fact that I can not find any other one with the both of us in there together hahha. Thanks for the gifts dude! I am just hoping for more pics of dogs... we need more dogs!
Guess he was more a Beer-type?
(sorry, couldn't resist to make a funny note, you know be by now I presume)
Looool....and women....
Not much to say really...
Proud owner of 4 pits. They are my life...my whole life. My gf is staring at me...kinda weirdly...
There is a saying that goes like: I don’t trust someone who doesn’t like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn’t like someone...
'I don’t trust someone who don’t like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn’t like someone...'
I've had several examples of experiences with my dog about that last part as well.
He almost felt it when I didn't trust a stranger at the fence.
The sound of him barking was different and he always kept a distance to the fence of about 1 meter.
When it was "good people" so to say: he barked also, but with both legs ON the fence and barking in a way to let me know; Hé Master; there's someone here to see us!
Awesome pics man, those pits look being in great shape.
Thanks man. They are in perfect shape, yeah. Athletes just like myself.
I know the feeling mate. You should see those two (coz the other 2 are still puppies) when they don't trust someone...No shit...pretty bad things can happen if I ain't close enough and you should also see them playing with my 2 year old nephew and act like clowns...
Someone jumped over the door once in an attempt to steal a bike...unfortunately...for him...he didn't see the signs...he will have a great story to tell to his grandchildren for the years to come...
Sorry for your loss...:(
Thanks mate.
I like that: bad things can happen vs. act like clowns. So recognizable!
'He didn't see the signs' Hahaha.
'he always kept a distance to the fence of about 1 meter' .
Ready to attack if needed?
You've got Pitts!!!!!!! I want me some Pitts. The first pic is a male right? He's got so much attitude lol
The first pic is a female man! Raisa! And she's got attitude indeed...
And on the last pic I am sure you can understand who the male is :P Simba!
Pits are such a fine breed...
oh... one more feauture why I respect and like you more now - you are a dog lover like me;)
and I had a boxer too...it was a girl, a tiger colour, a white star in her breast, so nice...
and I lost her..my parents were against her, and they did their best to make her leave. And they lied to me that she ran away by herself. I opened the truth only some years ago, and I was shocked..
It was an awful tragedy for me, I was a girl then.. I cried and suffered very long. More than 20 years passed but I still can't speak about her, the pain is too deep. After her I will never have a dog again. She is the only dog in my heart.
Dogtocber...a great idea;)
Dogs are better than cats, for me personally, they are more devoted, much more. They live for their masters. I don't know animals with so deep love and devotion than dogs.
What a sad story. I can imagine that has had quite an impact on you and find it brave that you share that here.
My first one was a female tiger colour also, a white stripe on her breast as well.
Right now I don't really have the time, space and possibilty to have a dog. But as soon as that changes I want a dog again. And I think you can guess what it will be. Yes, a Boxer!
they take our hearts forever;)
i have a rabbit now. i didn't guess I would have any pet, but it was destiny, so I left her. Then she died because of our irresponsibility, it was very hard for me, I blamed myself very much. Then I saw a dream where I saw that dead rabbit and a small one nearby, I took it as a sign and bought the second rabbit, a small one, just after her birth, a newborn, now she is 2, and she is like my 2nd baby;)
I look at your dog's ears and remembered that we cut ears of our Dana (my boxer's name). She cried so much... I cried together with her, but we were persuaded it was obligatory for this kind of dogs, it's their dignity and beauty. Why we did it... no beauty is worth of animal's sufferings... Mistakes...mistakes...
we had the same dogs...wow:)
Lover dogs too. I had a dog but it past couple months ago.
Sorry to here man. If it hurts to put a pic here, I fully understand.
Yah. Thanks.
My dad was gifted a puppy when I was born, we literally grew up together, he died at 15(human years). I will always be a dog lover.
Cheers to all our wonderful bestfriends(dog) both passed and living.
Happy dogtober and happy new month
Grew up together!? That must have been tough when you got "separated".
'Cheers to all our wonderful bestfriends(dog) both passed and living."
I absolutely agree, Cheers to that.
I didn’t know Dunga died, what a proud looking dog! Sorry for you man, hopefully the good memories stay strongest!

Thanks.
'hopefully the good memories stay strongest!'
They always do!
Here’s my daughter and me with Qing, our two and a half year old Boxer with unlimited energy! 😏
I knew you had one too.
And tbh, I've never known, heard of, neither seen a Boxer without unlimited energy, hahaha.
Nice pic, thanks. Do the transfer right after pushing the enter button.
tnx man! The battery these dogs have is just insane!
