Veda is a who knows what rescue mutt. And Zero is a boxer. Well behaved, sweet, smart dogs.

Here is a picture of Buster. The picture is when he was about a year old, he is two and a half now.

Foxxie and SWMBO

Orfy, In that shot your SWMBO looks a lot like another famous SWMBO on this board. Does Jester know about this???

How can you tell. She's got clothes on.

I need a better pic from you as a comparison.

Veda looks like an American Eskimo. Are you sure she is a mutt?

We've had two. Both great dogs, but very protective and when it comes time to shed, you realize what a "good" vacuum is!

She's got less fur (thank god) larger ears, the red nose, and a few large tan spots on her back. So I don't think so.

She may have a little American Eskimo in her though.

I'm currently dogless, but I used to breed Chinese Shar-Pei's:

from l to r is mom, pup that we kept, and dad.

She almost looks like a toy. Which would explain the ears, nose and lesser hair.
The tan spots I don't know about.

Some reason they don't show up... have to link. wtf's with that?

We got another pug today! His name is Buddy, and he is a three year old purebred pug. We got him for free from a family who lives in Kake that is moving to Anchorage and couldn't take him with them. Their loss is our gain, I suppose. He is such a sweet and mellow dog, and after only a few hours with him, he already seems like part of our family

And here's Beasley the Kid

Ok, Fightguy. I usually don't like dressed up dogs but that is hilarious

This is Ludwig (Louie) @ roughly 3 months old. He's only about 2lbs bigger now. He likes his Bavarian Hefe...

This is Maggs. Here she is as a pup ~7 weeks


And this is last Halloween:

Willow being attacked by my son:

We attempted a family portrait this summer. It was too damn sunny and in every pic either the wife or me (or both!) are squinting. Oh well - it's the dogs you want to look at:



From left to right:
Kaia (age 12.5) - competed in the USA Schutzhund National championships in 2000.
Jaguar (age 7) - our current breeding ***** and the only one we didn't raise ourselves.
Leiko (age 7.5) - competed in the North American championships in 2004.
Ada (age 3) - just got her Schutzhund III title (the highest level) a month ago. She's a solid black Shepherd - you don't see those too often. We expect great things from her next summer.
Cato (age 1.5) - He's the son of Jaguar but has the sable color pattern. He's doing well in his training and will start competing next year.

Training Schutzhund is my wife's hobby. It was started as a temperament test by the guy who founded the German Shepherd breed. It's now more of a sport. The dogs have to compete in three phases: Tracking, Obedience, and Protection. They get a score out of 100 for each phase which adds up for an overall out of 300. It takes a lot training to do well! Our dogs know over 40 commands in German and English. Check Youtube for Schutzhund videos to see what it's about...

and our new one!

My schnauzer Hobbs.

My brew buddie.




And the old lady of the house:

Here's Casey, 12.5 years old, Shetland Sheepdog.

She's the grumpy mother hen of the group and has decided it's her job to bark at everything -- the phone, microwave, any form of beeping timer, coffee grinder, blender, when people sneeze, when cars drive by, when you pull down the stairs to go into the attic, when she thinks she's going into the car ... I'm sure there are more I can't think of at the moment, but you get the idea.




Here's our other Sheltie Diego, he'll be 2 on Friday. He's the instigator of the group.




And finally, here's Kiwi, approximately 1.5 year old Border Collie-Aussie mix that we adopted from a rescue. Possibly the sweetest dog I've ever met, and thinks he's a lap dog.

For the record, these are all my wife's doing. She loves dressing him up for some reason. Personally, I think it is adorable for pictures but I would never let him be seen in public wearing any sort of clothing.

Willie the dog and El Gato the cat

Reese, the sh*t-eating wonder dog:

Hmmm... Reese and Willie would get along great, sh*t is her favorite food...

We're hoping this scrawny little bastard pulls through:



We don't have any pets right now, but we would really like to adopt this little guy. I'm keeping in touch with the shelter he's at, and hoping he gets healthy soon. More about "Babboo":
