Hey everyone, my name is Art, I am a Canadian lifetime martial artist now living abroad in Brasov Romania. No I have no Romanian blood. However since moving to Romania almost 2 years ago I have become a dog junkie. Right now I have 4. 2 Huskies, one that thinks he is a husky, and what I believe to be a lab/greyhound mix.

Any other doggie lovers?
 
We currently have 3 (and a half). The largest is a 75 lb. Newfoundland/Chow mix. Then there's a 73 lb. Pittbull/Lab mix. Then a 9.5 lb. Dachshund. Oh, and the "half"? A 24 lb. cat who sometimes thinks he's a dog (as contrasted with the 15 lb. cat who knows damned well she's a cat).
 
Yes, I have two dogs, a boy and a girl, brother and sister, about 11 months old now. Adopted mutts who were given up by their previous owner because she could not take care of them and the pet shelters are currently full due to hurricanes and other natural disasters. They replace another two dogs, also brother and sister, whom we adopted in North Carolina, where they were found with the rest of their litter in a garbage dumpster at 10 weeks old. They lived long and happy lives with us and passed away from natural causes not long ago. We will always have dogs in our lives, and we prefer mongrels who are rescue dogs, unwanted and unloved except by us.

That is wonderful I love hearing adoption stories. All of mine are former street dogs . The picture below Thor, the little one thinks he is a Husky was left with us at 6 weeks. The white one, Alpha who is an Arctic White Wolf Husky mix became like mom to him. She was abandoned 2 years ago on the mountain here. Gandalf I adopted in Bucharest last February. He was beaten so bad he lost an eye. The grye one, Floki is 5 months old. Him and his brother were left on our door at the beginning of summer. One died of parvo :(

Bless you for giving them a loving home, for a short or a long time.

Here are mine at the moment.

Those are beautiful pictures! My girlfriend here is dog crazy also and has 2 huskies. From the issues I have scene here over the years in Romania I would never go to a breeder. The government has worked hard to fix thr stray dog problem but still much more needs to be done.

Thanks for sharing the pictures!

I'm a cat & a dog person. I'm an all-animal person, really. All animals gravitate towards me. The most stubborn, I've found to be are horses. They're very unpredictable at times; some times more so than any cat or dog species (it will differ from one person to the next); whether it be wolves, lions, tigers, or domesticated cats & dogs. I think it's because I've experienced more accidents with horses than I have with dogs & cats (I still love & respect them though).

I prefer big dogs (in particular Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Bullterriers, Boerboels, Dobermans, German Sheperds, etc).

Cats - Any.

My Boerboel (South African Mastiff). She passed away in 2015. I would've liked to buy two male Rottweilers, but our current houses aren't made for big dogs, there's no terrain & it would not be fair towards them.

My dad, however, likes Dachshunds. New addition:

She is wonderful. She is very much wolf in behavior compared to the Husky, but she loves people. Especially woman. My daughter in law is coming to Romania to visit tomorrow and I know Alpha will not leave her alone :D
 
Okay, I’ll have to post some pics now, too. I’ll have to hunt the up off Maria’s FB feed For now, I present Sir Isaac. He thinks he’s a dog, so it counts.
