dibby man, that is EXACTLY the kind of dog I want. I've always loved border collies. :rockin:

He is cool. Very obedient. I was unemployed when I got him (puppy) and spent two months 24hrs a day with him! He has one blue eye and one brown (full vision in both). Bit clever, too clever for me. He will fetch a ball for over an hour, rest for 5 min and then back into it again! Will be getting another one, that is for sure - will have to wait a couple of years though :(
Needs a big runaround garden and a LOT of exercise.
 
The dog is named Dewd, he's a Lab Poodle mut (I'm alergic to dogs but I love them too much to not have one) . . . We let the then 2 y/o kid name it. The picture is shortly after the boy woke up and the dog wasnt too happy that the boy made him get out of bed too . . .

We've given up on keeping the dog out of the boys bed since both the boy and the dog seem to disagree with us

We have a 2 Bulldogs the Male is 'Buster' and the Female is 'Punkin' and my brother recently gave us his ****su already named 'Gizmo'

Oh how I wish the Bulldog wasnt fixed so we could breed a Bull**** dog...
 
50+ posts a few hours…dang, there must be some unknown connection between beer making and dog owning.
Have two mutts, Barley & Ruger, named after my two favorite things…Beer & Guns.

Those are nice looking dogs - I assume they're the ones in your sig. How are they with shedding?

Yes, that is them. The shedding is not near as bad as a lab, but they take lots of brushing. If you spend 10 minutes a day per dog, they usually look okay.

Good looking dog Wolf! In fact he looks exactly like the dog that had ours! And she's a prancer too. She was SWMBO's dog originally, I adopted her. :D She''ll be 15 in June, is diabetic and gets insulin twice a day. But she can still get a little fiesty. For the most part. Yeah, she sleeps. I figure she's entitled.

Over 2 years later tho, the boy I miss is Dakota. Stroke then a heart attack. Damn shame at 9 years old. MOSTLY Shepherd, big boy, but the biggest pu$$y you ever met. All 110 pounds of him. Used to have to give him downers during thunderstorms or he'd try to get in your lap, no joke. He's the shepherd in my gallery.

Is Dakota the one in the picture after a hard night of drinking and smoking? :)
Nice looking dog, a shame to have the problems at 9, thats how old Spices is now.
She's a runty little thing for a Shepherd mix for some reason, only about 55 pounds, looks tiny next to dogs like Dakota. From 2-5 years old everyone with Shepherds thought she was a puppy, while everyone who didn't have big dogs talked about what a big dog she was.
 
This is Butch, our 12lbs. Brindle Chihuahua

we also have 3 healers (Daisy,BJ,Lilly) and a beagle/healer mix (Rosie), but no pics hosted yet

Yeah that was him. He was a good beast. SWMBO had him before I met her. Someone dumped him in her back yard and that was all it took. He was VERY good natured. Used to let my eldest climb all over him.

This is Sadie, whose momma looked like your Siberian. She's a pretty tough old girl. For almost 15 and blind as can be, she's holding her own and getting around still. But like I said, she's sleeping a LOT these days. I'm just hoping that when the time comes she'll pass peacefully as opposed to us having to do something. Don't get me wrong, if it ever gets to the point where she just isn't making it, I won't let her drag on and suffer, but I'd rather her just pass in her sleep or something.

Are the heelers ankle nipppers? If they are like the lancashire heelers they will be. Great little dogfs full of bravado.

Nope, australian blue heeler, AKA australian cattle dog.
 
The last was Sitka, an Alaskan Malemute named after the island, recently passed to dog heaven, lived to be 19 people years old, travelled to 20 states and 2 continents. Her partner in Alaska was and is Wyona, a aussie shepard mix, who I think still misses her, and the newest is Pixie, a shep/lab mix who is still learning not to chew my damn slippers. Throw in a couple cats and some boys and you have a barnyard.

It's not a great picture, it was taken through a window screen, but on the left is Spices, a German Shepherd/Husky mix. We didn't name her, she came with the name when we got her, she was already two. Mostly we call her Fat Puppy.
The Husky on the Right is Nanook, we rescued him from the pound. SWMBO named him after the dog in The Lost Boys. We call him Gay Dog, he prances and enjoys wearing purple feather boas (not that there's anything wrong with that). Sadly the boa pictures were pre-digital.

Ah Wolf I gotta say, that's my departed Malemute Sitka. Man, I miss her
 
I've had a lot of dogs, first was a Dachshund named Fritz when I was a little girl and now we've a tri-colour Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Brenhines Afiona WinBear. Yeah... ACK name - Welsh for Queen Eve WinBear. She's just plain Avi or Roo or Doodle though. And she's absolutely fantastic with the kids.

avi.jpg


Her arch-nemesis is a cat named Tiger (Ti) that we got from someone ill.literate works with that couldn't keep him anymore. He's bigger than Avi and chases her around when he's feeling sassy.

I like big dogs, my dad raised German Shepards and I've also had a Malamute (M'Loot) whom I lost in the divorce.

When Avi's gone, we're getting a Boxer, though I'd love a Great Dane.

I gotta get a better picture with his eyes, he has the one brown, one blue/grey thing going on.
19 years? Wow, thats a lot of good years with her! I'm sure you must really miss her now.
It's been 13 years since I've had to part with my first dog, who I basically had all through childhood.
It's going to be harder on my wife, she's never had 'real' pets before, but she teared up whenever one of her firebelly toads died. The dogs are going to be really tough on her.
Hopefully that won't be for a long while.
 
We've got a blue heeler named Chaos. Only dog I ever met with extreme OCD. She keeps our horses in line.
Also have a Labrador Terrier named Callie. She's the sweet one. Her only job is to move sticks around our yard in random patterns and eat things you think a dog wouldn't possibly eat.

Here is Floyd, as in Pink Floyd. Also known as Hurricane Floyd. He's crazy but we love him!


LOL!! I had a friend with a cute lil beagle named Floyd. Back some years ago when Hurricane Floyd wrecked devestation on the coast, I found a headline from a newspaper that said "Millions Flee in Fear of Floyd!". I cut it out and framed it along with a picture of him looking all alert in that beagle way they have. It was hilarious.

My current dawg is a pound pup (all 105lbs of him...geez!) who came with the name of Goodman. It works for him.

When I was very little, we had a beagle named Sloopy, which is also a pretty good name, I think for a basset, too. :)

Currently not a dog owner but my kids want one. My four year old says that she will scoop the poop, feed it, etc... Can't pass that up, right?

Scooping is by far my least favorite thing about dogs.
 
I have a female black Lab named Emma and a male cat named Yusef. For the first time in a very long time I have only one cat and one dog. I'm in pet owner Nirvana. SWMBO keeps talking about getting another dog and anytime she sees either a puppy or a kitten I have to drag her away before she adopts it on the spot!

Oh, and I usually have a whole lot of chickens and turkeys in the summer, but I call them supper!
 
our doggy's name is Nola, for new orleans louisiana, where we got married.

Here is my crew:

Bukka Red (8yo Red Heeler)- BUkka is named after the blues singer Bukka White. He had an embolism in his spine 3 years ago and is gimped up now. He is my bet bud and partner in crime and he loves Killians Red (red dog likes red beer)

Willow (2.5 yo Red Heeler/Border Collie cross)- smartest little s#$% of the bunch. Notices every little thing. She knows that door knobs open doors, and tries to manipulate them with her paws.

Wren (2 yo Border Collie)- The sensitive one. She does not like hearing me cuss. She knows when something is bothering me before I do.
