Schope- (Photo courtesy: Hannah Stonehouse Hudson/ StonehousePhoto.com) Hello everyone! My name is Schope and I am the 'famous' guy whose picture traveled all over the internet. I am 20 years old and my story appeared on http://www.wusa9.com/news/article/216273/257/John-Unger-and-Schoep--Meet-The-Man-And-His-Dog-Behind-Viral-Photo-in-Bayfield-Wisconsin. The following is the story: "BAYFIELD, Wisconsin (KARE) -- They say dogs are man's best friend. John Unger and Schoep are proof of that. Their friendship started when Unger adopted Schoep from a shelter as a puppy 19 years ago. It turns out Schoep wasn't the only one who needed to be rescued. "He's been my guardian for a number of years," Unger said. Time has given them memories, but it has also taken a toll on Schoep's body. "This joint right here kind of freezes up," Unger said pointing to Schoep's hind leg. Arthritis and hip dysplasia have settled into Schoep's joints. The only comfort now is a routine that keeps Schoep off his feet. Unger takes Schoep out into Lake Superior for a dip as often as they can. Unger gently places his arm under Schoep as they float together in the water. With no pressure on his body Schoep quickly falls asleep in Unger's arms. Schoep's eyes close as his head rests on Unger's chest. Sometimes they stay that way for hours. "This is living," Unger said as they floated in Lake Superior Thursday evening. Unger is careful with every minute. He's not sure how much longer Schoep will be around. He wanted just one picture of them in the water to capture their friendship. He asked Hannah Stonehouse Hudson, owner of Stonehouse Photo in Bayfield, to take a few pictures. She posted one picture of Unger and Schoep on Facebook, and it went viral within a few hours. It has now been viewed more than 2 million times. Unger said he is overwhelmed by all the attention. He just wanted to capture one moment with his best friend; instead he captured the world."

An elderly lady gave him to us and we had him 5 yrs. He was 15 yrs old. I used to raise them for show dogs in Mo. We buried him in our yard so I go talk to him and put flowers on his grave. It was a terrible xmas for us and still is altho we now have a 'miss Taco Bell' who we love."

Smokey Frilling- Hi everyone!! My name is Smokey and this lady ask my skin Mom for my story and my Mom was so excited to talk about me because she loves me so very much. Anyway, as you can see, I'm a pretty good looking guy but I already know that!! Ok, well here is what my skin Mom has to say about me: "This is Smokey my life savior. Here is his story. Smokey passed away 9/27/13 at 18 years old. I got Smokey from a Humane Society when I was about 7 years old. He was a tiny little ball of fluff sitting in the back corner of his cage. One thing I will always remember is what the sign on his cage said "I have a hurt paw, but promise to love you forever." I went into that Humane Society looking for a dog that would be big, because I loved big dogs. He was labeled as a German Shepherd/Husky and I thought GSD he will be big, but he wasn't and to him that didn't matter. I grew up in the country and Smokey was the only thing I had to talk to and be with. He was always by my side never wanted to be anywhere else. He tried to come on the bus with and would run through the fields after the bus for a ways before he would give up. He was always there to greet when I would come home. We went in the woods all the time together and he was always right there never went far. I could see and hear coyotes, but was never scared with him by my side. Smokey is the perfect dog. People always dream of having a dog like him. He was never ever food or toy aggressive I have 10 nieces and nephews and they could all be on him petting him pulling on him and he just sat there happy as could be. He just loved kids so much. He would stand there while babies pulled up on him and he would walk with them across the floor. He was so gentle with my other animals cats and guinea pigs could sleep on him and he wouldn't even care. His favorite thing was learning new tricks he loves nothing more in the world than to make me happy. He would never give up or get frustrated when learning a trick and he would always get whatever it is that day. It was never a training process he just caught on things so fast and would often do them without me asking. For example his favorite trick was closing cabinets. After I taught it to him while I was in the kitchen getting stuff out of them he runs up and slams the door shut on my arm and he is all happy jumping up and down proud of what he did. He loved to show of his tricks when people came over and I very much enjoyed showing him off. People always loved him even people on dog forums that have never met him have fallen in love with him. When he was young I would take him into nursing homes and the elderly people just loved him so much he would just lay by everyone and lick them and was so happy to be with people and get attention. People always wanted him to come back. When I took him to dog parks he could care a less about playing or the dogs he would go find the kids and people. Often children would cry, because they didn't want him to leave. There was just something about him that people just fell in love. He was also very protective though. He knew when the right time to be protective was. He has saved my life more than once. One time he save me from a man that was inside of our house attacking me. Smokey didn't think he attacked. He didn't care for his safety he just went. Another time I was walking him and an akita was chasing us down I was yelling at him to run and he turns and runs towards the dog and as the dog was in mid jump at my face Smokey jumped right in the way. He was more than a dog to me he was my hero, my heart and my soul. He saved me more than just physically to mentally. I had a very difficult childhood and he was the only one I could talk to and cry on. I would often sleep outside with him in his dog house. He was my everything. Other not so difficult times in my adulthood he was still there for me to lean on and always knew when I was upset and he would lay on me for hours. I try so hard to describe the love he is to me and what he has given to me, but no words seem to describe him good enough. He truly was a one of a kind dog that I owe my life to. I wouldn’t be who I am today if it was not for him. People always tell me how lucky he was to have someone who cares for him so much, but I think I was the lucky one not him. I feel I can’t believe I was this lucky to be blessed being able to own such an amazing dog. Looking at what I wrote still just doesn't do him or his life justice. My life without his is empty. He has filled my heart with so much now I feel like everything I love is gone. I don't know how I can go on without the most amazing thing I have had in my life. He was my reason to breath and have always had him to hold on to my whole life. He was not "just a dog" to me he was my life." So, that is my story and I miss my family and friends so much but I watch over them everyday and one day we will meet again but until them, Mom, I love you and I know you loved me!!

Stella- Meet Stella! Her Mom Cynthia says: "Don't have a bulldog but as an honorary member of this group I would like to introduce you all to my little sweetie Stella. She passed away a few months ago but we had a great time for the short time i had her. She was a puppy mill rescued Boxer breeder dog and had breast cancer that the first vet said was operable so I agreed to foster till it was removed and a forever home could be found. The surgeon, however, was more thorough and found a 2nd tumor that had spread all over inside her body. She gave Stella 4 months. We got only one month. Stella was a love and 8 years old, spent her last days playing like a puppy with a freedom she had never had before. She slept each night right beside me with her head on my shoulder snoring in my ear. She traveled with me on transports and gave licks to everyone she met. I am so glad I got to meet her. I wanted to introduce her to you." It was a privilege for us all to meet Stella and know her wonderful Mom. RIP sweet angel and play among the flowers and the stars!!

Sturgis - Sturgis crossed over Rainbow Bridge this morning, October 08, 2012. Mom Lori says "Sturgis was nine years old.

Tank - Tank is a majestic guy. Tall and dignified but, don't let the exterior intimidate you. His Mom Susan says he is a big ole loveable teddy bear!! Full of kissed and snuggles and cuddling. October 16, 2014, God was looking for another beautiful angel and He selected Tank. It was terribly hard on the family to let their big boy leave. Susan had this to say about Tank: "It's a very sad day here. We lost my husbands beloved Cane Corso, Tank, this morning. He was in the yard and then acted like his hips were locking up. I sat on the deck with him hoping it was a cramp or something. He seemed to be getting weak and his breathing was not right. It was NOT a heat related thing...it's so cool and nice, that is why we were in the yard! I came in and called my husband, leaving my son to watch Tank. Justin came running in and said get out here now. Tank had a severe seizure (which he has never had). He went unresponsive. By the time I had the vet on the phone and had my son bring the car around, Tank was gone! We are going to have his body examined to see what in the world could have happened to have him die so suddenly. It was very possible it was a snake although we didn't see one. All the Bullies and my son's Chihuahua are just fine, but now I am afraid to take them out in the yard without a leash! Tank was 8 years old and nothing but a big old baby. We are sure gonna miss you big guy. RIP baby." Tank was deeply loved by many family members and friends. Though we don't understand, we do know we will be together again one day and for many of us who have lost a loved one, animal or human, we grab onto knowing it will be a grand reunion!! Rest sweet baby Tank. We love you!!!

Teddy - Little Teddy was in hospice care at Ms Marie's Peaceful Surroundings in NC. Beautiful Marie takes in senior dogs, pigs, bulldogs and animals in need of a place to go for either the last days, months or years of their life or a place to go to mend before being adopted. Marie and her husband John are the best and will do whatever it takes to give our precious babies a chance at life and a chance to get the love they might not have known. It is with great sadness that we bring you little Teddy. He was a precious soul but on October 4, 2013, God needed Teddy and prepared him for his final journey. Marie has this to say: "Teddy's little heart finally gave out in his sleep during the night. We petted him and tucked him in his bed last night and was still in the same position this morning. Thankfully he went peacefully in his sleep. This is the hardest part about hospice care." Ms Marie's Peaceful Surroundings, Inc. You can also find her on Facebook.

He was surrounded by love when he left this world and I know that my daughter welcomed him into heaven with open arms. We took a risk on this surgery but it was a necessary one. After four years of fighting for his life, we had come to the point that it was his ONLY option. And YOUR love gave Tiny the chance!!! Our world is forever changed. Tiny Tim was the light in my darkest days and was a beacon of hope to many people out there.

Tiffany Elizabeth - Tiffany was adopted thru Puppyfind from Ohio. Her advertisement claimed she was a teacup chihuahua. Having contacted the owner and talked to her via phone, she assured me that the Chi was indeed a teacup size. I was so excited to have found a teacup Chi and immediately adopted her. She was flown from Ohio to Salt Lake City, Utah and then from Salt Lake City to us on the western slope in Colorado. When her flight arrived, I was at the airport waiting for her. They brought her little carrier in from the plane and after showing the proper paperwork, she was handed over to me. I sat in one of the chairs and opened the carrier. Inside was a full grown, regular Chihuahua!! NOT A TEACUP!!! I took her home and checked her against the picture online. It was the same dog. I tried calling the owner and there was no answer. After further research and days of trying to get answers, I found out that the picture was staged to make her appear teacup in size!! I paid a lot of money for a teacup and I was duped. My dear daughter said she would take Tiffany and my grand daughter Kaylee actually spoiled her! Tiffany was a sweet Chi and she crossed Rainbow Bridge in the arms of my Grand daughter at the Vets office. She had many good years with her family and they miss her terribly. She is now running and playing with the dogs on the other side until she is reunited with those who loved her. RIP Tiffany Elizabeth!

Unknown Dog - Fox12 Oregon Critically injured dog put in box and dumped in Clackamas Co. field Posted: Jan 29, 2015 2:07 PM MST Updated: Jan 29, 2015 2:21 PM MST By Paul Craig Read more: http://www.kptv.com/story/27976427/critically-injured-dog-put-in-box-and-dumped-in-clackamas-co-field#ixzz3QWaTFtqW DAMASCUS, OR (KPTV) - Someone dumped a cardboard box containing a critically injured dog in a rural Clackamas County field and then drove off. Deputies were called out to the 23000 block of Southeast Borges Road in Damascus at 10:30 p.m. Tuesday. A homeowner reported seeing two people in an older U-Haul box truck, painted white, pull into their long gravel driveway and remove something from the back of the truck. The truck then drove away westbound on Borges Road. The homeowners walked out to the field and found an injured dog in the cardboard box, which was also filled with foam packing material. Deputies said the dog was a male Rottweiler, likely between 1 and 2 years old. The pup had suffered a broken jaw and broken left front leg.The box was left in a field and may not have been noticed if the homeowners hadn't seen the truck pull into their driveway, according to investigators. The dog was taken to the VCA Animal Hospital on Southeast 82nd Drive in Clackamas. The veterinarian examined the dog and determined its injuries were consistent with being hit by a car three to five days earlier. Due to the extent of its injuries and the delay in receiving treatment, the dog had to be euthanized. Deputies released photos of the dog when it was found in the box, as well as when it was receiving treatment at the veterinarian's office. Investigators would like to interview the people in the white U-Haul truck to learn more about what led to the Rottweiler's injuries and eventual death. Anyone with any information on this case is asked to contact the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office tip line at 503-723-4949 or online at http://web3.clackamas.us/contact/tip.jsp. Reference case #15-2547.
