    He's been great, he only peed in the house once before learning to go outside. He also loves the water!
    the shirt is to cover his enormous cut he got from a trailer fender in the yard requiring like 10 stitches:( Now he know not to run under trailers.

    I think most are born without tails. Right?

    beautiful dogs! Rusty looks 100% Aussie.
    Mine is a mix. I have no idea what else she has but she sheds quite a bit. She has very thin fur though. Muhc different from the other dogs on here. They are also great with other dogs in the house and she plays well with the neighbors dogs. They are herding dogs so keep that in mind. Lots of exercise. A lot of people do the agility stuff with them. We just toss the ball and run her in the back yard.
    this..

    I adopted him last month. Someone dumped him @ my Son's Grandparents(Ex's parents). He was covered in ticks. But he is house broken & leash trained. Jack is currently 38lbs as of the last vet visit last week.

    fun stuff coming soon! New battery, radiator and CV joints and axles. Added some Rancho RS5000 shocks.
    Its because they were originally used for hearding, its so their tails didnt get stepped on and broke, it served a purpose at one point but its mainly done for looks now.

    The tails are "docked" not "cut" fyi, just sounds better :eek:

    Im thinking about getting a mini, theres a lady around here that breeds hers once a yr and sells them for 200

    I bought one similar from Petsmart. A pet hammock, hooks to both headrests front and rear and gives a barrier to help keep them out of the front seats. Zips down the middle so a passenger can ride on one side and has holes for seat belts. Also has pouches with little pieces of pvc pipe that stuff in the seat crack to anchor it down. Nice set up and I'm happy with it. Cost a bit more but didn't have time for shipping as we needed it that day.

    Gave Max a bath, took him for a ride in the taco with the windows 1/3 down, then brushed him. Boy does he smell better and his dry skin is relieved. Not sure why he has a soar on his eyebrow and my moms dog bit his ear so he has a soar there too :(

    Here's my two Australian Shepherd/Blue Heeler pups. Lexi on the left is 5 months old and Bernie is 4. They have way too much energy even after hour long walks but great dogs.
