Fluffy Bunnies posted:How wide is it? Though I'm sure someone would be happy to have it. 20" wide by 70" long. A little bit of the width is a raised plastic lip, but most of it is usable surface with a grit-type traction material.

More pictures of my dog, from when she was about 10-15lbs heavier. She looks like a cow.

I did a double-take and had to scroll back up to get a good look at this one. It looked like she had some horrible overbite, or twin buck teeth.

It has been just over a year since we rescued Holly, and it was rocky for the first two or three months, but she has settled in quite nicely.

I miss my Pyrenees. They're great dogs. If only Monkey would have learned to respect the idea of fences.  DrClownsHappyHand posted:She's bigger, but he knows how to show her he's boss: Maggie is awesome, and I'm afraid we're going to require more pics, thankyouverymuch.  uptown posted:Shanti is going to be a year old on the 14th! Happy late birthday, Shanti. You continue to be amazing!  I don't have any new dog pics uploaded right now, so here's an old camping pic of Ozzie and the late, great Piper, one of my buddy's pibbles. Possibly the smartest, sweetest dog I've ever known. Rest in peace, old girl. She was put to sleep this past winter after 15 great years and a long battle with cancer. She's about 12 in this pic, and was still the boss dog of the pack.

I was eating dinner one night and had an audience. Dad, just a little bite please!  So Gracie was sitting on the couch as was I, Archer feeling left out and knowing that the corner is usually his spot, gives no fucks and decides to sit on Gracie. Gracie just sat there, giving a, really, you're gonna sit on me look.

On the subject of sighthounds, the local greyhound rescue just had a litter of puppies last night! I saw the mom about 3 weeks ago just after the rescue got her and she looked ready to explode. Best of all, there's a puppycam! http://greysave.org/puppycam.php

This is Cooper got him a week and a half ago. Found him at the rescue while there looking at a pup from their website. He is a Boxer/Mastiff mix, about 12-14 months old says the vet. Already 25.5" tall and 85lbs. (looks like he was underfed when he got to the rescue, and they don't feed too much either.)  Him coming home  Trying to look cool  Passed out after meeting Sadie our Boxer mutant living at my parents. (she is ridiculously broad chested with stupidly short legs for her body size. and that isn't fat she is just freaking solid)

Though a Pyrenees is one of those dogs I really really want, but wouldn't be able to handle. Though from what I gather, she had the same attitude about fences from a previous house that tried to adopt her but couldn't handle her. I'm really digging this thread, especially since I have to spend more than half a year away from my dogs. Once I go home, I shall put some more pictures of Holly up, assuming she does anything other than just lay around.

These are from St. Patrick's Day (she was much more enthusiastic than my cat).   And here they are cuddling in the morning.  Edit: Bonus cuddling video. I like how she almost whacks the cat in the face and he's totally unfazed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-B8epMA_OC0 Stroop There It Is fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Jun 3, 2013 |

BOAT! Ozzie went for his first pontoon boat ride today, and had a blast.  He liked it best if I held speed to where his ears would wing out like parachutes, but not start flapping. If they flap, he lays down out of the wind and pouts until I slow down, then he heads right back up front. This what he looks like right now.  He just wouldn't swim with me today. He's been swimming before, on several canoe and camping trips, but it's been about two years since we've gone, due to a ruptured ACL and repair I went through. Maybe he's forgotten that he used to like to swim with me. He'll still ride in the canoe like a champ, and will wade and splash around all day without hesitation, but he's not going in further than his feet will touch anymore. Would getting him a bouyancy vest thingy help? Where can I find one in Shetland pony size?  I left Sage at home today. Many years of canoe trips have taught me that Sage is highly annoyed by water, and is deeply concerned about anyone that will subject themselves to it. She doesn't like the swim and canoe trips, so I haven't tried her on the pontoon, yet. She gets all torn up when people are swimming, but she refuses to get her dainty princess feet wet.  So, she just stands at the edge of the water and squeaks and wails until everybody's on land.

MOAR BOAT! Ozzie was all about it, and surprisingly, Sage took right to it and loved it! She's normally quite disparaging of all watery activities, but I think she decided that getting in the boat was a variation on going for a ride, of which she is an enthusiastic supporter.  Smug Sage.   Now that's one happy old dog.

Sage just got back from a trip to a new vet for a checkup and an exam for a rash on her tummy. (Just a minor skin infection) I just thought it was great that the vet kept questioning her birthdate, 'cause he said he just couldn't believe how good her health was for an almost 10 year old Dane. He spent over a half hour in the room checking her out and loving on her. Final verdict: keep doing whatever I've been doing, and bring her back for playtime visits, 'cause she's such an awesome dog.  She did have a small growth behind her ear I was worried about, but he reassured me it was just a benign cyst, which I was pretty sure it was to begin with, but it's nice to have it checked out anyway.

Good luck, unprofessional. I asked the breeders I know and nobody knows of anyone. Sorry. So, Amy got spayed. Her mother came down with pyometra at 9 and...well that's pretty much awful. She's going home today, though.  Amy was loving wiped from it. It took her to the morning to get on her feet fully and she still barfed up a bit of her breakfast yesterday. Kept dinner down fine, though and she's much more herself today. There was an enormous storm and she spent most of that trying to climb onto the sofa because it was scary.  I look forward to having this back, even if she is entirely insane. This is asking for chin scritches the only way Amy can figure it out. E: And Amy figured out how to turn on the stove with her giant e-collar. This is gonna be a fun two weeks. Fluffy Bunnies fucked around with this message at 14:35 on Aug 16, 2013 |

Thanks much. I did find a working line of Caucasian Ovcharkas that I may go with for next year's litter. I need to do a lot more research on handling/training LGDs before I make any decisions, though.
