Lookit all them derps in one lap. Also dogs make you a crazy dog-lady, no matter your age or gender. Like I had Feldman on my lap tonight, and I realized I was singing songs with his name in it. Like "Schools out for Summer" by Alice Cooper became "Schools out for Feldman." And I gave no poo poo that if anyone saw this, they'd think I'm nuts. Dogs make people crazy! It's just how it works!

Edit: ^^^ all of them. All of the dogs. Or you know. Two, maybe three. A pharoah hound, irish wolfhound and something else. Maybe a Dane. Feldman dragged his little mat underneath my bed, and is now laying on it while chewing on his toys. Dog you are weird. Why are you under there?

RazorBunny posted:Dogs have a strong denning instinct, and sometimes they'll designate a particular spot as their den. Husker has one particular bed that he always takes his bones and such to. Anything high value gets taken there. Maybe Feldman has decided that under your bed is a good place to take his high value stuff. It could be. This is the first time he's doing it though, so who knows. He seems okay under there, so I'm guessing I should just let him be? Also here is a picture.

You know, I *WANT* a wolfhoud, but i'd never get one. I just wouldn't have the energy! As it is, I take Feldman out for a 4-5 minute potty walk every 1-2 hours when I'm home. Rest of the time he's tethered to the bed, and he usually just lays there. And that's just with a boston terrier! A working breed dog would be nuts. So I'll just have to fill my house with boston terriers.

edit: ^^^ Now that we've changed his food, and he's not on any crazy medication, his farting has gotten MUCH better. adventure in the sandbox posted:what Well he has a nylabone and a rubber ball and a puppy kong. Also a Bad Cuz, so he has stuff to play with here, which he does. The dogs in this neighborhood have giardia, and either the owners don't know, or don't give a poo poo. We did take him to the beach a couple of weeks ago. Besides he's a Boston Terrier. They're bred to just be couch dogs.

So Feldman is fine with those short walks and like 30 minutes of playing/training a day. Well that and chewing on my hand until I smack him for biting too hard. edit: I'm pretty sure Feldman's heart would explode in his chest if we tried to take him on a 5 hour hike.

When the weather is mild or cool, my dogs like a half-hour of hard running every 2-3 hours. Its getting hot now, so they get too hot to get tired which means they need more frequent, shorter sessions of fetch. We've taken them on 5 hour hikes, no big deal they are still running up the trail ahead at the end of the day.
|
dogs I'd never own? JRTs, because they're too hyper. Also teacup ANYTHING, and probably no terriers. Terriers are temperamental as poo poo and most the times I've been bitten at work have been by terriers. No chihuahua's either, the trembling little monsters. Edit: My aunt has a JRT/Chihuahua mix. It's as terrible as you'd think.

Andrias Scheuchzeri posted:Hasn't someone posted about their dog that not only poops onto tree trunks but walks circles around them while doing it? There's a dog who comes to daycare, named Rascal. He's Boston Terrier(of course), and he walks while he poops. So there's a little trail of poop going from one point to another, and everyone immediately knows who did it. Also while I love big dogs, I'm not sure I'd want to own one. Having to pick up the huge piles of poo poo at work is enough. Don't know if I'd want a dog that leaves a pile of poo poo the size of a baseball. There was a basset hound at work today. He went 'baoooo bawooooo' I love basset hound barks.

to not say. She walks the dog at night unless she can somehow get out of it, and tonight she put the leash on the dog, hovered over him, and then took the leash off when he didn't immediately jump up to go walk. And then she went to bed.

Feldman is named after Marty Feldman. Because they have similar eyes.  Although no one seems to know who Marty Feldman is.  Whats your dogs name? He's Feldman. Feldman? You know, like Marty Feldman. Who? You know, he played Igor in Young Frankenstein Never heard of that. oh.

Shifty Pony posted:He's a Boykin Spaniel. He has a curly coat that is magnified by a fairly short clip and having just gone swimming earlier in the day. My parents had to give him a shorter cut because he just loves to chase birds in brush piles and would come out with briers all over his back half. I'm sure you can imagine getting a tangled thorny stem out of that hair is pretty much impossible. I read that as 'Brooklyn Spaniel' at first. "Yo, Woof, I'm a dog ova heah!" He's a very handsome fellow. The only spaniel I've meet are those king charles spaniels. So soft

Yeah, Feldman's not got an exciting life. 6:00am-The Woman is up time to get up and take a walk, I get to pee and eat all the flowers and leaves I want! Haha trying to take it from me? Watch me clench my jaws SO HARD. 6:30-9:30am-More sleep time feels good man zzz 9:30am- Oh The Boy is up time to get up. Hey breakfast gonna scarf it down so fast. Time to walk and make a poop, which I will kick for some loving reason woof. Also yum flowers and leaves! Oh a bee! *snap snap bark snap* gently caress YOU BEE I'LL GET YOU ONE DAY! 10:00am-4:00pm-Hey lets take the occasional walk. I will let you know it's time to do this by making you think I have to poop, when in fact I don't! gently caress you walk me! Also time to sleep, occasionally chewing on a toy or licking The Boys feet, but mostly sleeping. 4:30pm-10:00pm-Hey The Mom is home time to play with her. Whats that you're eating dinner give me some hey that bag is in the wrong place BARKBARKBARKBARKBA-oh you put it away thanks man.

Instant Jellyfish posted:The lady I bought my new sheep from had a BC she got as a sheepdog trial washout (he loved people more than herding) and now I want one. At one point the farmer was trying to figure out where the dog was and realized that she had told the dog to hold the sheep and it still was almost 20 minutes later but it wasn't frantically busy like some other bcs I've met. When he was released he came over for some love then wandered off to occupy himself. The dogs from the breeder he came from come already trained on stock so I would know it could work/its general temperament and I wouldn't have to deal with a puppy. The breeder even does all sorts of health testing which is a miracle in the stockdog world. Maybe if it was a little female Major wouldn't want to eat her too much... That would be pretty cool. You could also spin and knit the dog all sorts of sweaters and outfits from the wool. You must do this.

Question: So are labs generally considered smart dogs? I ask this because the place I work gets several labs on a regular basis. And they're all very sweet dogs, love getting pats and have serious cases of buttwiggles when they're excited. They're also about as smart as a bag of rocks. Just wondering if this is just them or the breed on the whole is kinda derp.

Fluffy Bunnies posted:If you can get a calm lab, they can be smart as hell. It's, like Foxy said, avoiding the awful poo poo lines which make up.. god, 75% of the dogs out there. We're not talking border collie smart, but they can easily do obedience stuff like any other dog if you work with'em. That is kind of sad  The Labs at work are super sweet, and the butt-wiggle they do when they wag their tails SO HARD is super adorable. An intelligent, field-line bred lab is probably an amazing dog.

Well I'm not a conformation expert but I'd say in that second picture Mouse has another dog growing from her underside and maybe that shouldn't be there. I can't critique such a pretty dog! One that's pretty good at getting rabbits and rats, too. Your dog can actually do what she's bred to do. That puts her head-and-shoulders above 'show dogs' of all breeds.

paisleyfox posted:That is one happy, handsome Shiba. Haha, I was hoping you'd see the pictures. His tail was SO curly. The most curliest tail I've ever seen. A wag donut is a great way to describe it, because that's what it was. He was the first Shiba I ever met IRL, and he was very sweet. He'd sit there with a sort of 'oh, go on' expression while I pet his head, stroked his ears, and made stupid noises at him.

Four rescue ladies, two teenage girls who didn't spay their female kitties fast enough (but who I guess were at least doing the babies) and a crazy-rear end dog lady. That's horrible, I would have probably rolled my eyes at her so hard they'd pop out of their sockets. On the other hand, the mental image of some crazy dog lady trying to choke out a big rear end dog is kind of amusing. Hope that dog pees on all her stuff in retaliation.

I like to abuse Feldman by sometimes(frequently) picking him up and carrying him around the apartment. Lately he's started to rest his head on my shoulder, resigned to the fact that I will not put him down until I'm finished snuggling him. My mom thought this was the cutest thing ever, of course, so she took two pictures: Here's Feldman being all camera shy.  and here's him pleading with my mother to help him, oh god the snuggling.

Feldman had The Snip today, and now he has no balls!  that and being microchiped cost like 400 bux all together. His heartrate went a bit slow, so they gave him stuff to speed it up, but besides that it went fine. Now he's got an empty ballbag, and a bullystick for being a good boy. Also Tramadol. Delicious  The vet suggested we ice the incision area, but how do you do that? Don't think he'll want to sit on an icepack.

He's about 12 or 13, so it seems on par. I hope Bonus gets better!  There's this pibble at work, and she's adorable. But we have to give her pills twice a day for her allergies, and she just won't take them. We didn't have any pill pockets, so we just tried to give her the pills, and she kept pushing them out with her tongue. Might bring in some salami or something tomorrow, see if that works. A Pitbull's face changes pretty dramatically when you pull their lips back. Them teeth are serious business.
