 Our Pets... The Dogs

Our three dogs... Tenor, Destin, and Jersey There's so much to say about our dogs that we created an entire website called The Fun Times Guide To Dogs. It includes all the fun(ny) stories and pictures of our pets: Destin, a Black Lab/Golden Retriever mix; Tenor, a Black Lab/Great Pyrenees mix; and Jersey, an American Eskimo dog who recently passed on after 15 great years with us. Plus, the site is loaded with tips for dog owners! And, of course, there's plenty of pet humor mixed in.

Just tripped onto your page. Very nice. We moved back to Nashville in the Fall of 2007. We live over in Maury County, a little in the country. I have enjoyed reading all your little articles on artists, songwriting, Franklin, etc. Very cool site...I'll be back to read more.

I just wanted to say thank you for creating this site. I was looking for the real men of genious commercials and you've provided a great list. I've been laughing for hours!! Thank you!

I stumbled upon your page after googling about black golden retrievers - I know it's a silly question but I did that to find some pictures to see the similarities of my dog, Bella. When I first got her when she was barely 4 weeks old, I was told that she was a black Labrador and German Shepherd and now she is 7 months old, I'm starting to question her breed...there is no GS in her. She does look like a Lab, only that her hair's long and she's got dainty legs/long body for a Lab/GS mix. I've been told that she is probably a Lab/Border Collie mix but I'm not too sure. That's when I stumbled onto your page and found pictures of Destin and there is a huge resemblance between Destin and Bella... Same face, black spots on tongue, long wavy black hair - the only difference is that your Destin is bigger than Bella. If you like to see some pictures of Bella, let me know!

I love your page, by the way - lots of interesting tips in the dog section (especially about the black spots on the tongue)

How funny!

I trust that you landed on one of these articles:

...then found out we live in Franklin, TN -- near Nashville.

Well, to answer your question, I don't know of any Nashville Euchre groups. But that's only because I haven't really looked around.

I would think there would be some. I seem to recall seeing some in a printed newspaper-like tabloid like the Nashville Scene or something one time. It was in the "local clubs & groups" section. Not exactly sure which paper it was though.

Next time you're in town, feel free to email us. We'll play some Euchre with ya!...

I took a chance and googled "Euchre Nashville" and stumbled in here. My husband and I are "sort of" moving to Nashville (commuter/weekend couple). We love to play cards...we like euchre a lot. Do you know of any card playing groups?
