Let's See Your Dogs!!

one of my dogs rolls around in elk shit every time we go to the cabin. She runs around looking for a nice big pile of it. Weird ass dog!

 

for rescuing her. at the folks who kept her kenneled all the time

My dogs are kennel trained. They sleep in there when I go to work, with the doors open. They didn't stay in them longer than 4 hours without a play time outside. There's no way I could have left these sharks loose when they were pups.

I'm with you - that people should not have dogs and leave them in crates all the time!!! But they are a good tool when used properly.

 

I know But I don't like when people have misconceptions about crates. Both of our dogs love have loved their crates, run in to "go to bed". Used correctly, they are a great tool. BUT both were/are in there the MINIMUM time "required". NEVER for discipline, only for safe keeping/sleeping. Lots of exercise, etc. Don't hate the crate, hate the owner. Kinda like the gun control debate ...

That's some paws!

 

Haha that's what everyone notices

 

DOGBUTT!

 

found these knuckleheads in a vacant home august of last year. wanted to get rid of 1, nobody wanted her hyper ass. ended up keeping both.

at 6 months. 2 days after we found them


at 1 year old

 

aw man, those be a pair of good DAWGS!

 

Both my dogs are rescues, and their experiences with crates...are the bad kind. They do not go in willingly. Lucy bites. Well, except now for some reason at the groomer and that is with a "this isn't my favorite thing in the world but I am getting my hair lowered" resigned to fate attitude about it now.

So, I guess that's some kind of improvement I suppose.

 

Goose poop is impossible to avoid living on the water. The cat poop he'll sniff it out like his life depends on it.

He eats prescription food, but I'll ask about his vitamins next vet visit.

 

katie and nala now almost at 2

 

i feed my dogs victor dog food. for the price you cant beat it its grain free and theyre turds are solid and dark. we went through like 3-4 brands expensive, $65 for 25# bags, till we found it. one of my girls has itchy allergic reactions to gluten, wheat, grains. it also tapered off their hunting for cat turds. theyll still find a fishy crap treat every now and then, but wont dig for them nearly as much.

Cowboy vs Packer game put her to sleep

 

I feed my dog Fromm but she has some serious stomach problems so we are constantly switching foods.

 

Thanks for rescuing your pups. You can get them used to their crate. Feed them in there. Give them a treat when they go in. At first, treat as soon as they go in. Gradually increase the time they are inside. If they like to retrieve, throw the toy in and let them get it. You don't have to ever leave them in the crate, but it will help them out if they ever have to be kenneled - spend the night @ the vet or for traveling.

My avatar pup hated her crate and she eventually came to love it - took awhile, but she overcame her hate.

 

Must be a good sleeper, that was a great game

 

ya it was
