Jeff Matthews Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 No, she's allowed on the couch. I've got 6 indoor dogs. Wow! And I thought I skewed the curve with 4. 3 of ours are from the pound, and the 4th (and most recent) is from our farm. Who would have thought? Buy a farm, and get a free dog with heart worms! A few K's later, and she turned out to be a young, healthy dog with a good personality. Had we not come along when we did, she'd have not made it. She was very sick and maybe would have made it another month, if that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wipster Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 This is my new puppy. We got her from the animal shelter, so they don't know a whole lot about her. They say she is a 1 year old shepherd mix, but as my wife says, there were a lot of "one year old" dogs. What do you guys think? http://img202.imageshack.us/i/45454154616554553874100.jpg/' target="_blank" title="http://img202.imageshack.us/i/45454154616554553874100.jpg/"> Congrats! I definitely see the lab, but also some terrier in the nose... has she developed any "habits" yet? Terriers love to dig, Labs love to tear up anything, including siding from houses, when they lose their baby teeth. I definitely recommend getting a DNA test. We too have a rescue dog that we thought for sure was a Bearded Collie (like a Old English Sheepdog, but straight hair), but he turned out to be a Clumber Spaniel and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier combined with a Weimaraner and a Belgian Tervuren! Heck I'd never heard of 3/4 of those breeds, but in looking them up, that did explain his high ears and a lot of his characteristics. We used Canine Heritage, but they were a bit pricey (>$100). Regardless, I encouarge you to get his breeds established as it will help in training and make her a better dog and you happier owners in the long run. Enjoy and I hope she likes good loud music !

mungkiman Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 She's a good dog, that's all I really need to know. That's the best kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rplace Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Nice job on the shelter! Very cool. I see lab, but after reading the other guesses I think doberman too. I don't see much shepherd. All the best with the new family member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I've got 6 indoor dogs. The most I ever had indoors was 3. Two Newfoundlands and one Golden Retriever. They'd all lay around in the kitchen and there wouldn't be any room to step. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tragusa3 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I have a pure GSD, and if I squent real tight and let my eyes out of focus I can see GSD in your baby. LOL Seriously, I'll put a vote in for lab and Dobe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.4knee Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 hmmm looks to me like one of two possibiliteis, it could be a Lab/Dob mix but to me the face profile kind of says Pointer so maybe a Pointer/Dob mix as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean5340 Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 looks to me like a "lucky dog". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennie Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Congratulations Todd (and family), she's a beautiful dog! Don't spoil her to much. My Besenji mix "Cody" (from the shelter) started picking out records and asking me to play them..... We all thought it was cute, until I came home and found her playing records while napping........ .....and the Cat? He's a lost cause....... Thanks for sharing her with us, Dennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
