nbraunstein posted:Looks like a purebred Dutch Shepherd to me. If so, you lucked out! Though I've never met one, everything I've read about them indicates that they're an amazing (if a bit high-energy) and very healthy breed. Dutch Shepherds are one of the few recognized breeds I'd personally consider seeking out for ownership. Rvrnd. Riot fucked around with this message at 20:52 on Sep 28, 2009 |

Sutureself posted:About a year ago where I walk dogs there was a dutch shepherd. He was listed as a belgian shepherd mix but come on! He was a totally awesome dude. He would hug everyone he met and was really well-behaved (aside from jumping on everyone he met). Belgian Malinois/Dutch Shepherd maybe? The Belgian Shepherds and Dutch Shepherd are super closely related breeds anyway. Rvrnd. Riot fucked around with this message at 01:46 on Sep 29, 2009 |

This is Henry. His mom is supposedly a pure beagle, but was sort of scrawny in a rat terrier kinda way so who knows.  Based on some unsubstantiated account of a mating featuring a sorta-boxer-looking dog, Henry's mom's owners had all the puppies tails docked (thinking they could sell them as boxers...)  Henry is a puppyish dork, and he is honored to be the bumper of this awesome thread. There are some great baby pictures of him somewhere... Rvrnd.

Ishkibibble_Fish posted:Does he loooooove food? Well, his ears are indicating to me that he's very interested in the poptart I just had to have when I stumbled in drunk tonight. One semi-stern "no beg" though and he is so, so ashamed. I don't know about his mix, though his markings are so regular and lovely (especially when he was young (see first pic)) that I'm very sure he should be a breed of his own. His dashing blue tick scarf is an item of particular esteem. He's dang smart and has tons of energy for his age. I taught him to shake in about ten minutes with little bits of biscuit (you're onto something, Fish-person) at age 7. Old dogs and new tricks indeed! Scary Ned posted:[fluff disparagement] Rvrnd.

Hot dang, everybody's jumping on this cattledog bandwagon(what an adorable, fun bandwagon). Seriously though, the first picture (about ten posts down the first page, with the cat) in that cattledog thread is perfectly Henry. Minus beagle plus tail of course. I'd always wondered about him having some heeler, but never really looked into it. Scary Ned posted:clicker training The training thread (and especially a life less' videos) inspired me to try "shake" and showed me how to do it. I guessed Henry'd be sharp enough to manage without the clicker, and so he did. He lives with my folks, and I'm just visiting, so I didn't bother with buying and "charging" a clicker. Next time I'm a dog owner though, it's clicker all the way. I'd like to rerail by noticing what an awesome looking dog Snow Job's malamute mix is... Reminds me of stylized CG attack wolves in cheesy movies.
