Dogs

Never heard of that but I just googled it and it does not sound fun. Wishing you a full and speedy recovery

 

New pots with a new puppy!

 

Here's my little brewdog, Morgan. One "action" shot from a past brewday, the other providing a better look at her. She goes absolutely psycho for the hose water, so I have to put her inside during cleanup time, lol.

 

Honoring those who are gone but celebrating our pups who are here. Axel needs a new buddy.

 

just got another from the pound 2.5 month old. So far, so good. Just glad she sleeps through the night.

And here's big sis:

 

She simply can't leave the geese alone

 

We're looking at 2 pit rescues right now. Meet and greet next week. Jelly of your new puppies!

We adopted a second dog about six weeks ago (the smaller black one). It's kind of amazing how well they both adapted. Our golden doodle was happy before (I think she is genetically incapable of being unhappy), but having someone to play with has made her even happier. And our new pup has really come out of her shell in the last few weeks, from being a quivering ball of sadness at the shelter.

 

Gino just celebrated his 11th birthday. He is now 10 months past being diagnosed with cancer and being given 2 months to live. Coincidentally, we have the same birthday.

My daughter made him a birthday cake, it is a pumpkin and dog food pancake with peanutbutter frosting.

 

Happy Birthday to Gino and you. I will raise my next pint to his continued health.

 

Our Sadie turned 2 today. No idea what type of dog so I just call her a Canardly ad you can hardly twll what kind of she is.

Best guess is a boxer and some type of terrier mix.

 

Blue practicing her duck calling and trying to kick the habit.



Major doing what he does best:

 

@Boomer there is just something about gun dogs doing gun dog things - something that is just so right - I have never been as happy as our goldendoodle is when she is wet and muddy and bringing something back to me.

 

I know what you mean. No matter how crazy Major drives me when he's inside the house, the minute I cut him loose in a field, I remember how much fun he is and absolutely love it. Blue is my best friend, though. She comes to work with me and if I tried to keep her out of the marsh during duck season, she'd probably figure out a way to start destroying my things.

 

I've got an 11 year old German Shepherd and a 3 year old English Mastiff..

Both are lazy and serve as great door stops.. If you want to rob my place just bring some milk bones and they will be your best friend...

 

If you're itching to know, the DNA tests aren't terribly expensive and they're actually very cool. It shows you the whole family tree! These are the results from our 2. Saaz is Cassie's mom. They just send you a swab to swipe their mouth and you send it back.

 

We did one and turns out our lab is mostly golden retriever

 

Which service did you use? We have a rescue that’s almost two now and they said they think she’s a retriever mix when we adopted her as a pup. She looks more like a ridgeback and Pitt mix. She’s a 60lbs cuddle bug that will try to steal your pillow on your bed or just lay on your head. Haha. But we are very curious to do this.

 

We went with Mars Wisdom Panel. There's a promo code on it for $15 off. It was a few years ago so I have no idea if it still works but it's worth a shot:

Share your results if you end up going for it

He can't help it, the Howdy's breeding strikes again

Another point in his defense; any mommy bunny who builds her nest in a beagle's yard isn't doing her species any favors by passing along her DNA

RIP, baby bunny (the Howdy's 3rd)

 

the Howdy gave us a big scare 6 years ago today

he ruptured a disk and needed surgery. thankfully, our wonderful veterinarian referred us to the equally wonderful vets, nurses, techs and student vets at the Virginia–Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech

WE THANK THEM ALL for giving us 6 more years with our Howdy

tl;dr - if your critter EVER needs a treatment you can't afford, have your vet contact the nearest veterinary school and see if they can't provide more affordable options.

 

Our last dog from 5. Axel 10yrs. We're starting the work on building up another clan, slowly. Came across this pic so posted..

 

Just in case you guys missed it, there's again been warnings about premade dog treats of the "jerky" variety.
most of these are made in china or with chinese meat(even when not reported on the bag) and contain chemicals that can cause kidney failure in dogs.

 

morgan is our 11 year old lab and Payton is our new puppy. Both are highly trained brew dogs

 

Thanks for posting. I've warned my wife about Chinese crap a while back. Sanity in this world is totally giving away to the all mighty buck...

 

And I was always a big dog fan until my family out voted me and brought this little 12 lb rescue dog Home last year...

 

We are waiting patiently for August.

 

Millie looks a lot like our Kota

 

The Crew and I up at Mackinac Island last summer:

 

We're hoping tomorrow our Meet and Great goes so well, we have a new family member. Fingers crossed...

 

Introducing Luna, 12 weeks old, we know her mom was a Blue Pit. Of course, PLENTY of energy!

 

Congrats on your new entertainment center

 

Haha! Thanks! Been a while since we had a puppy. She's finding every little piece of plastic frisbee chewed off in our back yard, only a billion out there. Today will be puppy proofing day.

 

Congrats buddy!

 

In Bozeman today

 

You taught Timber to fetch attractive women? That's awesome!

 

Luna’s favorite way to play fetch...
