its all about muts.. all the dogs in my family have been rescued
our first dog nikki was found by the side of a contry road nearly frozen to death. my mom brought her home and nursed her back to health. she had 6 puppies, we kept 1 and named her ringo, she was the best dog ive ever had.
another dog boomer was adopted after my mom read a story in the newspaper of 5 puppies found on a porch step on a -38 degree celsius night, another great dog.

all of the dogs where mutts, they where all really intelligent loyal companions.

Cozmo @ 3 months


Coz full grown


one of his favorite places


the typical result of such adventures


Cozmo and Kaia first meeting


Isn't she cute?



They had one fight early on to establish boundaries, I think. But now they LOVE eachother.



I love rescue dogs. Cozmo's mother is a pit and we assume his father was a lab. We had Cozmo for 3 years before we got Kaia last November

They tell us that Kaia is pit also but I don't know if that is true. To me they are muts. They are their own breed. These dogs picked me to be their owner not the other way around.

We get a lot of stares and questions when we take them out. They look intimidating but they are the sweetest things you just wouldn't know that if you were standing at our front door unexpected. When I go out of town and leave my wife alone in the dogs care I know she feels very secure. I love dogs.

Heres a pic of a dog I got from a country feed mill,he is there to greet the customers.
Hes either part or full blooded Austrailian Heeler,one owner told me he was a Red Heeler and another employee told me he was Blue Heeler :confused: :chin: ,so I don't know what he is for sure.
I just call him "Dingo" cause I think he kinda looks like one. :rolleyes:

Listen to me jerky
Here is me ferocious attack dog when he was a puppy. He's a French Bulldog. The most he might do is lick someone to death. Some day I would love to get a big dog I just don't have room for a big dog yet.



I'm gonna get some more French Bulldogs someday soon. They are such odd little creatures. They are great if you live in a apt or don't have a huge yard for them to play in. If you look into them just go to a good breeder. There are lot of puppy mills turning this breed out with loads of health problems.

Some other types of dog I would like to own in my life are:
English Bulldogs
Chinese Crested (hairless)
Rottweilers
Huskies or some other breed of dog that will love the snow

A few random notes.
One, don't ever get a puppy at a pet store. Go to a breeder and see where the dogs are born. The actual conditions they are born into. Puppy mills are horrible places and they should not be supported in any way.
Two, try and rescue a dog. With the internet these days you can look at dogs that rescue organizations have all over the country. They may come with a problem or two, but with time you should be able to help them have a normal life.
Three, Get your dogs (or cats for that matter) fixed. Waaay to many dogs are put to sleep each year because they don't have a proper home. Getting your dog fixed can prevent it from getting pregnant or knocking up someone else's dog which will just end up making the problem worse.

3 legged dogs rock

3 legged dogs rock

even with 3 legs and 10 years young, she insists on carrying her big ol frisbee up some steep ass stairs covered with ice, in the dark, when she was a youngun she could catch a black frisbee in the pitch dark at about 30 meters, this dog has never ceased to amaze

I have 4 dogs, here's one of them. It's a "Berger de Brie" (antique French breed dating back to the 13th century.).
My 3 other dogs were rescued from the street, but this one might be the only one I'll ever have I got since he was a puppy (bought him as a puppy, maybe the first and last time I do that in my life).

It's a fantastic breed, great for a family, very loving, and very very sentimental too but that's too a very hard headed breed (not for beginners = if you want the dog to do something, you need to find out the way for him to think that what he's doing is his own choice... Can be tricky sometimes, but I succeeded quite greatly in educating him... only with soft words and so on = walks without a leash, can wait for me outside a store for 20 minutes, won't follow any stranger, and so on ...).

Pictures start when he was 48 days old (the night I got him). Then you have his first bath (he loves water !), and so on ...

This is my new favourite thread. My family has always had cats but never a dog, so I hope to adopt a rescue dog in the near future. I guess I'll just have to keep looking in here until I do. :wave:

DOG BRUSH

well on the recomendation of some of u here and sum friends i broke down and purchased a "Furminator".

This is for Yukon my Great Pyrenees and Sierra our Border Collie (mostly for Yukon tho)

This one EXPENSIVE dog comb ($60)....but def. worth it.

I just wanted to tell u guys how awesome this thing is, and that you'd be doing yourself a favor to get one....even tho its so expensive.
