The New Offical Mutts of the House thread

[stehansen]

Herding dogs that don't have anything to herd need some sort of game to use up their energy.

 

[Che]

My lab, Ace, has too much energy. I bought a second 'zogoflex' dog toy for him.....the last once I bought has lasted MONTHS!

This new one is a ball, it bounces good but off center to keep him guessing.

 

[woodworkingboy]

A ball that bounces off center, that is hardly fair! Hope it doesn't make him nuts.

 

[Che]

"Hope it doesn't make him nuts."

Too late for that......he's one crazy dog. We call him Tigger sometimes, he'll come to the door and bark once....when we come to open it, there he is....bouncing straight up, over and over................

This evenings walk with Bear. Nearly 18 months now & a big and happy dog

 

[MasterBlaster]

Beautiful animal!

 

[woodworkingboy]

He does look happy. Every dog should be that way.

 

[Burnham]

Sweet! I'll show Melanie, Pete.

 

[flushcut]

Mighty fine lookin pooch!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Bear is one beautiful animal ... Nice Pete

 

[pete mctree]

Thanks guy's. He's a great dog even though he is a nightmare to train due to the malamute in him.

 

[18 stoner]

He sure turned into a fine looking animal Pete.

Since I last saw her, Jo's looking a little tired though. Overworked, early aged, and damned ugly if I dare say

Here's a few randoms from the last few weeks of Pip and Snoopy. Pip is now three and a half years old and Snoopy celebrated her 15th birthday a coupls of weeks back.

Pete, Bear has turned into a real fine looking dog. I can only imagine how challenging it is to train him. I hope you have a BIG stick

Pete, Got to love collies. lovely looking pair of animals you have there.

As you know, we had a bit of a disaster with our recent puppy - I managed to run over him in the yard to my horror. I've had to really control myself with certain non-dog owning friends, who think its funny to make jokes about it. Softly spoken Harsh Words have had to be had:what:

So we managed to find a suitable new pup for the kids. This is Teddy, a Lakeland x Jack Russell. Fantastic little dog, wonderful nature. One of the pics is him next to my Sisters dog Alfie.

Oh my gosh, what a great picture to wake up to! 2 dogs and a cat! How sweet! Thor, any time you loose a pet it is tragic, glad you stepped up right away to care for and love another one. Your kids look like they are having a blast with him! When Palmer passes, which I hope will be many, many years from now, I want to get a dog small enough to travel via air with him. John and I hate having to leave him when we travel to the Bahama's, but know that the trauma of him being below the aircraft would not be good for him. Good thing is, he has lots of girlfriends at the vet where we board him while we are away. They love and care for him as much as we do!

 

[flushcut]

Oh!!! fuzz ball.

Pete, what a beautiful dog!

 

[18 stoner]

Looks like that pup sure has some spirit, especially there with the ball. Will be a great companion for the kids for sure.

As for loosing your other, its never easy but its horrible for others to make fun. None animal lovers can never understand the relationship that can be built with mans best friend. As V says, nice to see you with another.
