The Dog Thread

[rockouthippie]

Judging from my experience with an Aussie shepherd and a border Collie, that's gotta be a lotta dog.

He's smart enough to roll down the windows on my car without having to ask me to do it. Fabulously loyal, fleet as a deer and good natured to everyone except for than damned black lab up on the hill behind us. but then everyone hates that dog.

Just found out - I have a friend that has just found out that she has to leave the country (for work I think) in 2 weeks. She has two 3-year-old labs that are about as perfect as they come, and she can't take them with her, so she is desperately trying to find a good home that will take the pair together. She is from the Columbus, Ohio, USA area. If you're from around there and you are interested or know someone who is, I can send pictures and a more detailed description of the situation. They're extremely well trained, very monetarily valuable, used to and positive with kids, and just overall perfect pets. Give me a post or PM if you have a serious lead as to where these dogs should go.

Daisy has the same problem with Cici, the black lab across the street. Cici is a worthless shit too. Cici bit Daisy for no reason at all. Daisy hasn't forgotten. I agree labs are usually good dogs.... but I've known a couple.... I've had an excellent great lady lab... Lucy. I also had one that would eat the siding off the house and tempt me to commit dog-i-cide nearly every day.

Cleo was a pound adoption like Daisy and is the only dog I ever coudn't train. The pound got her back. Too bad. A pretty lab.

I think I'd attribute lab problems to bad breeding, usually extreme inbreeding. They are a very popular puppy mill dog, so I'd watch it.

I have never gotten my purebreds from like a Pet Store or any of that. I used to go to a heck of a lot of dog shows, as I had campaigned two of my female Malamutes...I still occasionally go to them. And yes, I've had great mutts.
Smart, loyal, friendly; just wonderful dogs
In keeping with the new theme

Jack dog was a rescue dog. All my dogs and cats are rescues. Jack was two days away from getting the chop because his previous owners didn't want to spend $100 on a vet bill. My good luck.

Azor's biggest breed in his blood is likely BLUEtick Coonhound.

A breeding site said the following, which explains a lot about him:

Do not let this breed run free off of its lead, unless in a safe, secure area. Coonhounds have a tendency to follow their noses, and if they catch wind of a scent, they may wander off for hours following it.

@ Ted, just so folks know..What he said

I was editing - but that site does explain a lot.

Wikipedia says a lot about them too. Something in his line slims him down, keeps the brown out and speeds him up though.

^ I just like showin' pictures of 'em!

Pleeeeeaaaase.... I just one one little bite.....

[rockouthippie]

He knows if he sits there really good.... not quite begging...

I know this is the wrong thread, but that just screams "I CAN HAZ CHEZBURGER PLEZ?"
