Nala. My AKC and CKC, ( currently working on more titles ) pick of the litter, champion bloodline yellow lab. She is trained to duck hunt and is an excellent duck dog. I did all the training myself, she knows all whistle commands, verbal commands, and hand motions. She has done 400 yard blind retrieves. She's my prized possesion.

He can really be a handful at times..... I snapped this after he got into the pantry, found the biscuits and got his head stuck in the box.... I didn't even know until he came stumbling into the living room banging into the walls cause he couldn't see where he was going, what a knucklehead!!!

Awesome.

My buddy has 2 yellow labs. One is Simba, the other is Nala.

i'm assuming those are aussies too? are they both males? they look a lot bigger than discnjh's and my aussie is about the same size as his... interesting breed, they can be all over the map.

regardless, they are beauties!

Thanks! Yes, both Aussies are male (neutered very young apparently). Barley (64 lbs) is the largest (tallest) Aussie I've personally seen and owned. His paws are the size of my fist. Blue (66 lbs) is 3-4" shorter but about 15-20 lbs overweight.

Great dogs, and they shed a ton. Mine will get a military crew cut comes May.

My aussies are 45 and 50 lbs. Otter, the red tri-color, gets a haircut every summer. He always looks pretty funny for the first couple days.

Yes they will look funny. And Blue will look quite fat (if he hasn't shed pounds by then) when they get shaved.

It's funny because when I had my previous Aussie shaved, I thought he looked like a little boy (and a few folks said the same thing).

Here's what a moderately shaved Aussie looks like. link

Another one.
