  • Hello Again! Past DOL Members reunite!

    As a very ooooooolllllldddd member of DOL, I was encouraged to come back for a "reunion" of sorts with the other forum members who were very active in this board 8 or 9 years ago. It's been a long time since I've signed on, and I'd expect that there are very few of us crusty old types around anymore. This forum was invaluable to me 9 years ago when I joined, right before adopting my Maggie girl. She was a wonderful, loving member of our family until last year on Memorial Day when we had to say good bye to her. She would have been 8 years old on her birthday in June.

    These days, my animal family consists of a Basenji/Pug Daisy (10), Cavalier - Sophie (5), and my Akita Trooper - 2-1/2. We also have one cat who lives indoors all the time (Gus - 8). I'm in Northeastern California, and look forward to catching up on all the happenings of DOL in the last several years. see you all around the Board!
    My best boy, Trooper.

          It's great to see the old timers stop in to say howdy. Hopefully, more will do the same

                      Welcome back Gwenna from your crusty/rusty/old friend. Can I be the official champagne pourer at this cyber party? Remember when there were only 500 people on this forum? I'm looking forward to your wit and wisdom on DOL.

                      If any of the old-timers (posters and lurkers) want to join this cyber party, just enter here and I'll hand you a class of champagne and give you one of those "infamous" cyber hugs.

                      So here is a bubbly glass for Gwenna, Shotah, Greenmagick, Bev, Mitch, and Paul (I know he likes champagne.) I've got another bottle of Dom Perignon on ice, just waiting for the next check-ins to our DOL Reunion Party. So step right in and get your cyber hug.....

                      Just saw Carolyn checked in too, here is your glass of champagne. I forgot how often Gwenna had posted back then, but do remember all the discussions we had on if there should even be a post count. And I remember when my post count stayed the same 482 regardless of how many times I posted. But Paul and Debbie worked their magic. I do like the current look and feel of this new format. Now lets party!!!!

                        Well, I am an old timer, but I'm just about as active now as I was back then

                        But the "cyber hug" certainly brought back memories!

                            I would love to see a pic of your basenji/pug cross. We had a basenji when I was a child. INSANELY energetic dog. Hope yours got the pug temperament and energy level.
                            Anyway, welcome back!

                              OK, I'm signed on and let's see if this works 500 members, Oni? If I recall correctly it was more like 300-something when I found this web site to ask questions about my (then) newly adopted girl Seqia. Gosh, now I really feel old...
                              Anyhow, Gwenna, thanks for getting the ball rolling and have fun with the bathroom remodeling.
                              By way of re-intro to the current DOL crew, my girl (my alter-ego), Seqia, had to be let go last May a 10 years, 8 months of age.
                              Currently have GD Molly (12 years!), GD Brenna (going on 10), GD Colt (4), Newfs Brandy (5) and Misty (9), Ariel (Husky) 10.
                              Good to be back -
