Sarah: I love that picture! You and Maddy are gorgeous. :)

Milo'sMommy: I sure hope not! My sister is 14! HAHAHA! I think I might've had a white russian before that though. The drink in the photo is a virgin cranberry blended drink.

However, I looked up a white russian (I don't drink, so I really don't know the names of anything LOL!) and I may have had one before that picture. It was a coffee-ish alcoholic drink. I thought it might have been some sort of Bailey's mixture, but it may very well have been Vodka+the other ingredients in a White Russian (cream and coffee liquor?).

It was the first drink I've ever had (I'm 19) besides a sip here and there to try it, and I only drank it because my parents were fine with it, and the hosts of the party (friends from church) made it for me. Guess you could call it "peer pressure" besides the fact that the guy who wanted me to drink it was like 50. LMAO! I have bad influences. Well, I really don't, my parents don't drink at all, but it seems like EVERYONE but my parents drink, and are always trying to get me to. :rolleyes: Including people much younger than me.

I don't personally like alcohol, it makes my stomach hurt, and will most likely never drink much, so despite the efforts of many, I really don't drink. :p

My favorite pic of me:
(Not my dog, but a dog who was and still is very near and dear to my heart, even though he's been "adopted" from the rescue I work and volunteer for).



My name is Cristy, I'm 28 years old, I work at a rescue shelter (FOHA), I am trying to find a job that will actually pay enough that I can move out, I like lots of different types of music, but I'm not too fond of techno or rap. I love dogs and hanging out with my friends.

I currently own a black lab mix named Daisy, I live with my parents' dog Benji who we think is a schnauzer/lhasa apso mix, two cats and my two guinea pigs.

Pffftt. Missy's your dog, you rescued her, you trained her and she is your dog, heart and soul. Your dad just commandeered her and hasn't figured out you can't command a dog's heart and ultimate loyalty. ;)

Nickname/Preferred name: Andrea, but Blackrose is just fine. ;) I think the only nickname I've ever had was Drea.

Occupation: Animal Science student/kennel technician/assistant groomer

Age: 20

about your dog(s): Chloe is a 3 1/2 year old generic collie/Aussie mix. I love that dog to death, but she drives me up the wall at times. She's my "Issue". Literally. She has problems. lol
Rose is my 12 year old Lab mutt. She was "my" first dog in the sense that I picked her out from the litter and took care of her. She is the stubborn mule dog, but she is so sweet and soft and timid that you over look her stubbornness most of the time. Note I said most. ;)

Interests: dogs, ferrets, writing, reading (fantasy/SiFi), playing the piano, RPG video games...LOL Also hiking.

Favorite music: I like a variety. For example: Within Temptation, Linkin Park, Disturbed, Owl City, All American Rejects, Pink, Evanescence...I even have a JPop CD. :D Various country artists and orchestraical/symphony/piano music I love as well.

Favorite book: Gosh. I don't know. I have to say I love the Harry Dresden series by Jim Butcher, and the Rachel Morgan series by Kim Harrison.

Favorite quote: I have a few (mainly from the Sword of Truth series), but I recentally have drawn a lot of strength and courage from Philippians 4:4-9
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
And a picture - not from 2011, but from late December on my brithday, so it counts! I hate getting my picture taken, so this is as good as it is going to get. LOL

This is to my knowledge the most recent pic of me...and it's probably 10 months old. I'm in a lot of training vids since then but that's not really the same thing lol.


That's Mira out ahead and a friend's Malinois next to me.

Nicknames: Steve

Occupation: Student....3.5 more years....

Age: 23

about your dog(s): Leo is a purebred labrador with ridiculous neurological problems. Nikki is a purebred GSD who's just cute as can be but didn't have an 'alpha' dog to put her in her place while 'growing up' (we didnt' have her for the first 7 months of her life and Leo didn't take that role when we did get her) so has some poor social skills at times with other dogs. But they were both free and both are awesome dogs, just special in their own ways.

Interests: motorcycles, critters, music, beer, ladies, guns, video games, food...I'm beginning to think I'm just a big stereotype...

Favorite music: Classic rock, but I like anything that's not country or rap.

Favorite book: Might as well ask what my favorite molecule of oxygen was. Been through way too many good ones to pick one that was better than the rest.

Favorite quote: In my sig.

Goofing around with my lab coat.
