Let's See Your Dogs!!

ah, I've not kept up. Ian sold his about 5-6 years ago, and the friendly guy running the local hobie franchise sold the biz and moved away, too. I think those injection molded hulls were a French companies design, or something.

 

I'd imagine the hulls are made in the same plant that molds their kayaks. it's a great boat. definitely lives up the the hobie speed reputation. just a tab more tame/stable than the older fiberglass bad boys we used to race, like what your son had.

 

yah, the 16's were pretty gnarly running around Monterey Bay here.

 

This is the boat I learned to sail on

Pacific Catamaran. Built in Newport Beach, CA in the late 60's and 70's. Kick ass boat. Solid wing construction. Daggerboards. Rigged with a spinnaker, as well.

 

New to you? So you got a used puppy lol, how much? Warranty? I'm kidding, she's a cutie.

 

pittims

 

I think he's a hound/border collie mix with maybe some pointer in there (shelter dog so you never really know)

Mine and @minigrowl look pretty similar. mini's ticks are more pronounced whereas my guys only really show when wet, plus the border in him is why he's so furry.

 

Ours is a shelter dog too @pittim and we were told she was a blue tick hound and pointer mix. We've found her behavior to match the description, she's always nose to ground following trails with complete focus. The woods is her home, she actually took off on us sniffing a trail last weekend in Hoosier National Forest while we were trying some off leash obedience training. Occasionally she will pause, point her tail and lift a paw but not very often. She loves to chase squirrels up trees too.

 

Yea your pups ears are a dead giveaway for a hound!

There's trees all around us with squirrels going crazy...drives my guy NUTS along with the rabbits...and birds..and leaves.....

 

Hound, Collie and I see some Lab too. Good looking dog!

 

I love that tail too!

 

This is what his DNA test results were. WAAAY off I think.

 

I think they may have mixed up some DNA, lol.

 

Yeaa....I mean I guess he has the tail of a Spitz lol.

 

once you breed a couple generations of mutts, you end up with 'dog, generic'

this was one of our 'dog, generic', aka Rex.... total nutzoid over tennis balls, but he wanted to play keep-away. also a little too aggressive around strangers, which made him a little sketchy at times.


another one, Blake, he liked digging for gophers.

 

This is Cowboy

 

Will be adding another member to the family any day now! My one year old blue heeler needs a buddy!!

 

Was suppose to adopt this guy earlier this week but it didn't workout. Still on the hunt

 

We wanted to adopt our GSD but a family north of us spoke up before us so she went up to them. Three days later she was back and we got the call. No matter how it goes, I'm hoping that you find a kick ass fur buddy soon.
