Let's See Your Dogs!!

Kingsley loves the sprinklers! He usually tries to drink right from the sprinkler.

 

Here is drake sleeping in the truck.

 

Can't believe I haven't posted my baby girl on here yet. Meet Precious
Love at first sight. She got her name the moment I saw her and said aww she's so precious.
She goes crazy anytime I say "truck ride!"

She'll be a year and half next Saturday

 

Dog approved is important!

Trex or some similar material?

 

Ipe

Natural hardwood from Brazil.

 

That chit sounds expensive.

 

About the same as trex

 

Looks great. That's what I want to do. A little spendy, but totally worth it I think.

 

Meme worthy.

 

That is what I plan on replacing my deck with. I grill and smoke a lot on my deck and IPE is extremely fire resistant. Good to know it doesn't get that hot with solar gain. Not that it is normally a problem in Mn. LOL.

 

I'm not trying to be a smartass or wagging my finger at you, just relating an experience. My golden retriever used to jump up like that and I never thought anything about it. Even encouraged it a little because it was cute. Then he tore the ligaments in his back leg and we had to get surgery for him to replace it with a nylon one, it was damaged that badly. He was 6 then.
Didn't care about the money spent or the rehab, and he's doing pretty good for a 12 year old, but it's just one more thing that makes his life a little bit harder.
Your dog might handle it ok, and not saying you are doing anything wrong, just relating a bad experience we had. Dang dog of mine still tries to jump up, but gets stopped now.

 

My fishing buddy Oakleigh

 

While packing the truck for my beach trip last weekend, Archie figured out that we were going somewhere and was determined that he was going to go with us. Luckily for him, that was true. He sat in the truck for 30-40 minutes while we loaded it up, completely still, looking ahead, only glancing over every now and then (like I captured in the picture), like he was hoping we wouldn't see him.

Went to our 2nd training lesson today and learned the place command. Now i point to a place while saying place and he will jump up on it and sit down.

 

Yeah, he's a mix of excited and happy. He's got some sport in him, some aggression, overall a good mix of love. He's a rescue.

(Dalmatian, Boxer and maybe Lab or similar)

 

This is Molly! Australian Shepherd rescue

 

Good looking dog. When I first saw him, I thought there might be some American Bulldog in the mix. That would account for the spots under the coat and the Boxer look. A good friend was breeding them for a few years. He had quality bloodlines that produced some great dogs. Sort of fell in love with the breed.

I think my dog Jake is Lab and Am. Bulldog, at least part. He has a Lab tail and build. You can really see his spots after a bath.

 

What a smile!
