Let's See Some Dogs !

Eddy's 5, his new to him today, K38 is 67. An American mutt and and an American gem. I'm lucky.

Eddy looks very protective of that K38! Great looking dog.

I used to raise and show American Foxhounds all over the country. I sold out about 15 years ago.

Gundalow , that's what I thought . I knew that's what they were originally bred for , did't know they were still used for hunting . My original lawyer had 2 , a brother and sister . Needless to say , his back yard did't have much grass . Again , beautiful and regal .

Great photo! This is what we mean when we talk about a dog being totally focused on the job. And what a handsome boy Otto is. Great hunting/working dogs are a joy to watch in the field.

We all know training and great bloodlines make for good hunting dogs, and dogs who have other jobs, but sometimes we can't help but stop, watch them work, and wonder, "How do they do that?"

Thanks for enlarging the thumbnail of Otto. I can't figure out how to insert the large photo in my messages, just the small thumbnails that don't do the dog justice.

A few pics of Ziva this morning, just being her goofy self.

Thanks to all for another great thread on our beloved dogs...it brings smiles and heart ache at the same time. My best bud for 16 years....gone now for a little over two years...and the pain is still fresh in my heart...

My two rescues. I lost Buddy three years ago. Suzy is the white Shepherd.
She was rescued from Kentucky where she was a bait dog. I won't list what was done to her physically, but, one thing is, she can't run. Her knees were broken. She is getting along in years and will soon go over the rainbow bridge and see Buddy again.

That's a lovely photograph. I don't believe we ever stop missing our Best Friends. At my other house, my previous dogs would lay at the door, looking out at everything going on...sort of like Dog Television I guess. They would eventually fall asleep as the warm afternoon sun started coming through the glass. I'm sorry for your loss.

Wish I could give you more than one "Like" for your comments. The photo makes me sad because it reminds me of my own dogs. Others might disagree (I know some who do) but I do believe people who rescue dogs, who give them a home, will be amply rewarded in the next life, whatever form that next life may take.

On a dog's Scale of Fun Things to Do, riding in cars probably ranks right up there with playing in the snow and chasing cats.

All the "experts" say it's not good for dogs to ride with their heads sticking out the window, but someone obviously forgot to tell the dogs that.

With their noses that are millions of times more sensitive than ours, can you imagine the impact of all the smells being smelled while riding along at 40 or 45 mph? What a sensory overload it must be for them. Not to mention the sound of the wind in their highly sensitive ears.

Ever notice how dogs always look as if they're grinning when riding with their heads out the window?

Ain't that the truth? My wife was so protective of her little Lucy, she wouldn't let her hang out the window. But when Dad got to take her to town, it's time to hang it all out! She surely did love it. The Good Lord wanted her back about one year and 10 days ago. I sure do miss that little girl.

It is always fun to check out threads like this one and see all the fine canine family members that people have given a home and family to. Lots of great looking mutt pictures.

Greatest thread ever!


I wish I had the ability to love people as much as I love dogs, or as much as dogs love people. I'm working on it.




My neighbor has a blue heeler which he's obviously beaten and mistreated. About a year ago, it came here to live. It is a fine dog. The neighbor; not so much.

If I may. My youngest daughter, Sarah, supports and uses "Animal Friends Humane Society" which is in her community. She already has three rescues from them and threw her name in the hat for "Trooper".

She just sent me this link. She makes me proud.

Dogs understand what it's like to ride a motorcycle .
