Let's See Your Dogs!!

Thank you guys for all the good info

 

Riley's always been good with kids. Today, I sent my niece out to the truck to collect him. She got him leashed and out of the truck all by herself-so proud of her. She's just 12. It helps that several years ago, the two of them played bubbles. Her brother and sister weren't so sure (Riley's probably 70 or so pounds heavier...) so they opted for "riding the dog".

He definitely earned his dinner tonight

 

They're really loose when the dog isn't pulling. When there's no stress on the leader, they can open their mouths and do anything they'd normally do (eat, drink, bark, lick themselves, etc.). It only cinches closed when they pull, and pulls their head back when they really pull. They learn quick - don't pull, no restrictions.

 

Stunner! Whats the breed? GSD/.....?

 

I'm glad to have a big fenced yard for my Shibas to run in now, they are just too hard-headed and independent to be trusted off leash in an open area. Our last place had no fence, so we had one of those radio bubbles. It worked great with the small dogs, but my male Shiba figured out how it worked pretty quickly -- when out of range, it beeps first then starts shocking them, but stops after 30 seconds. I could watch him creep up on the boundary to get it to start, and then sit down and let it shock him for 30 seconds (you could see him jerk every time it shocked). Once it stopped, he would run. Usually to the neighbor's back door, he loved their dogs. Had to switch to a 30 foot lead to keep him in the yard, although he would break a collar with a plastic clasp almost immediately. He's good on a leash, they just have a strong small game instinct and will chase anything that moves. He loves when I blow leaves, so many things to chase down . . .

 

Caught this guy being a creeper

A few days ago I woke up to him booping my nose

 

I've had great luck with the Easy Walk harness.

Tacoma World meet Stihl the pit bull. #stihlthepitbull

 

Just brushed a small dog off him

 

Petty much the same thing happens when we brush/comb out our puggle...



#TheStruggleIsReal

 

Good lookin pup! You can rename him if you want. I renamed both my husky rescues because I didn't care for the names they were given by the rescues. My newest one started responding to his new name within a few days.

 

Ya he is a wirehair but fluffy, but doesn’t shed that bad, undercoat rake for the win.

 

Oh, OK. Never mind then... Our puggle sheds only twice a year, Fall through Winter and Spring through Summer...

 

HAHAHAHA i spit out my coffee that was so funny... Your pups? I've never seen a Weim with such a large pronounced white patch on chest..

 

Raining and cold today. Found this pic of the 2 nuts. If anyone tries to talk you into a Weimador RUN! It is unbelievable the amount of energy these nuts have!

Only thing better than a warm dog laying of your sore knee at the end of the day.....








......is one to keep the other sore knee warm.

 

Went and got my dog a new tennis ball as the other was starting to crack, new one is mint flavored green for dogs, takes 2 steps and sits and glares in disgust at me judging my taste. Throw the old one and he retrieves it no problem.
