What breed of dogs do you have and enjoy?

[minih]

I could not live without dogs in my life. Like others have mentioned they are a part of our family. The three in the house we have are 2 pugs (Bunny and Sweetie) and a boxer (Angel).

And our 3 outside dogs, we have a pom mix? Scruffy who was a rescue that showed up weighing only 2 pounds and had a huge gash on her chest, ears half eat off from ticks, and was very wormy. She is one of the best dogs ever.

Sir Wizzer Britches, he peed in my daughters truck on the way home from saving him at the vets to be put down. He had mange and was wormy. Wizzer for short.

Wizzer

Buster: very recent rescue, driving home on our back roads and there he was. Hungry and lost. Took him to the vet and he also had heartworms. We just finished his treatment for them and he is doing great. Now he just needs to get neutered. Very soon.

I don't have a pic of him yet, need to take one and post later. He looks like a min-pin, beagle and chihuahua cross. ? Cute as a button.

I love Dogs I work at an animal shelter. My favorite breed though is the Chinese Shar Pei. I grew up with them, and don't think I could ever not have one

Here is my Shar Pei Azure that recently passed away. She was a therapy dog.

And here is our new shar pei who came from a shar pei rescue Her name is Olive

And here is our dog Charlie. He was a foster puppy we just couldn't give up. He is Lab/Golden and more LOL.

(he is throwing a treat up in this pic)

REO, your Anatolian mix is definitely part Akita.

Here are my two boys I have now.... my purebred Border Collie who is about 8 now and an abused rescue dog who is Border Collie and Golden Retriever. The BC is the watch dog and all business, and the mix is Mr. Happy Dog, LOL who watches but with a sense of humor. He loves carrying things in his mouth and has to bring or carry something every time he gets wound up- like every time I come home, go outside, etc... LOL

Here's Angus the BC

Here is MacDuff. His previous owner starved and beat him as a pup. His back leg was broken when I got him and had already started to heal. It damaged the growth plate, so is a bit shorter than the other one and doesnt bend in the hock joint at all. Very sad, but it doesnt keep him from running and playing with Angus. He is a good natured dog.... the second pic, he couldnt find a stick or toy to grab, so went for the next best thing- a piece of baling string out of the hay shed!!!

Here is my collie, Tiffany:

This was her after stealing my 'bed' (couch). I often wake up on the floor while she is in my bed with her head on my pillow. Silly girl. The sweetest, smartest, and most loyal dog one could ever ask for though

I don't think I'll ever be able to live without a collie. She is great with the horses and has always got a barn kitten or two right at her heels.

Here is Shotsy with her 'baby'. She lays on it like this all the time and has to take it with her when she goes to bed.

And here is MeToo-she is a maltese. A little 'fluffy', I know.

I just love dogs. Another passion of mine. I currently work with 2 dog trainers so I get to spend time with a variety of breeds & puppies. Its great work.

But here are my 2 babies.

Dionne- 6 yr old Miniature Pinscher. She is my baby. Got her when she was 1 1/2. She was too small and was being sent back to the breeders. A breeder who i've oggled over for 4 yrs before purchaseing a min pin. I had a specific want,, a black & Tan female, younger than 3. It was just meant to be. I found her at the perfect time.

In her bed in the barn. This girl just loves farm life.

Corona - 7 yr old Doberman Pinscher. I have shared custody over him with my ex lol.

Hooked on Cardigan Corgis here...

I have a rescue pem, Henry

His sister Kate, my first Cardigan (with Henry)

and baby brother Nugget, who just turned one (with Kate)

Cardigan folks get asked all the time about the differences in the way the two breeds act. My favorite response: If you are at a party the Cardigan would be the bartender and the Pembroke would be the guy with the lampshade on his head.

I will never be without Cardigans. (Thanks to anoki for opening my eyes to them!)

I sure miss my Shar pei. Someday I will get another one, but not until some of the ones we have pass on. Have to get a pup this time to raise it up with cats so he/she dont want to eat them.

Here is another I took of one of our dogs today.

She is about 9 years old, and really keep considering putting her down due to some health reasons, but cant bring myself to do it.

I would love to share photos of my babies, but can't figure out how!

I've had two people give me instructions on posting pictures and I still can't get it. I have enjoyed all of you alls pics of your babies.

I have a Newfoundland, an Airedale, and a Boston Terrier. I love the mix of dogs I have right now, everyone seems pretty relaxed and happy.

This is my dog, Scrappydo. He is a bit of a ham.

Folli - a borzoi and the gentlest soul I have ever known...

Folli with Tag - who brought her up.

Tagalong - Tag... was a smooth fox terrier. I love/loved all my dogs, but Tag was truly my "heart dog".

After Tag was gone ( a long and very sad tale) - Folli pined for a terrier... and so Fig came along. Folli "adopted" her and never left her side.

[tagalong]

Folli brought Fig up - and then we lost Folli to bone cancer.

A friend who bred Border Terriers insisted that I take Tug...

to also be continued...

 

[tagalong]

Fig brought him up - and now the two of them are BFFs and flyball fanatics...

Sorry for the picspam!

OH MY...I absolutely LOVE this photo!! JUST GORGEOUS!

 

[Matt73]

OH MY...I absolutely LOVE this photo!! JUST GORGEOUS!

I was going to say that, too. It's right out of the Chronicles of Narnia; I'm expecting a "fawn" to jump out at any moment

 

[tagalong]

Thanks Mona... I wish it was better quality - I only had a little disposable camera in my hand - and looked up just as Folli took her new puppy Fig - who had only been with us a couple of weeks - on "patrol" up to the gate. I quickly snapped it and that was what I got. It could have been a lot better - if you notice, there is a line of tracks in the snow on the right of the driveway - and just as I snapped the photo, Edgar Martinez, the barn kitty, jumped into the foliage and out of sight...... you can sort of see his black shape to the right of Folli...

 

[Mona]

Yes, actually I had noticed that set of footprints to the right. I was really examining the picture closely, as it looked so "perfect" I was wondering if the dogs were "photoshopped" into that photo, and when I saw those tracks, I realized it was probably a "real" photo. Just gorgeous!!
