Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What kind of dog do you have?

TRH, I agree. Our Golden Retriever got cancer at 11. He did Ok for a while, but started slowing down quit a bit. He didn’t appear to be in pain, but the vet told us to give him a mild pain reliever twice a day. When he had trouble going outside, getting up from laying down, we knew the time was near. We had the vet come and put him down on a nice sunny day outside. Could he had gone a couple more weeks, probably, but at what quality of life?

We have 2 Miniature Schnauzers, two Anatolian Shepherds, and one Great Dane.

French Snack Hound, AKA mIniature poodle.. I say he's my wife's dog. She says he's my dog.

I had to have my little Daisy put to sleep today. She was only 5 years old and I wasn't nearly ready for this. She got some kind of intestinal infection this past weekend and the Dr. said before she showed symptoms it was already too late. She was a great dog. She was the runt of the litter and had a bad over bite. But she got past that with a good bit of work and luck. Daisy was one of the friendliest dogs I've ever seen. Going to really miss her...

That's a heartbreaker...and I can relate. I've had to do it a number of times now, and it's never easy. I came to the conclusion that in exchange for one terrible day you get many great days, and it's a great bargain. It hurts like hell on that terrible day and you might think you don't want to go through it again, but I have renewed the contract many times and think I always will---at least until I think I've reached the point a new dog would outlive me.

Sorry for your loss. Hang tough.

Currently I have a GSD..." Rommel"






But he doesn't hold the stub of a candle to Ingwedog Aussie x Border Collie.

She will always be the Gold standard....

What kind of dogs?

Why fast ones of course. Very fast ones.

Where is he? I know he's after me.



Yep, he caught her, he always does, but she can turn quicker.



Whippets, for those that don't know. Not much can touch them in a sprint. Greyhounds and other large sighthounds (Salukis, Ibizans ) will beat them long distance but the whippets will usuallywin up to 100 yds or so.

When not running they prefer a couch, or in front of the fire.

we have a 2 1/2 year old yellow lab....Bailey...She is fullbred, AKC registered and dumber than a box of rocks.

She has a lot of fun though....My back yard and my neighbors yard are like one in the same...no fence and about 3/4 acre in total. He has a 5 year old black lab named Nylie and her daughter....a 1 year old chocolate, Kayaa.

It's a beautiful thing to stand on the deck with beer in hand and watch the girls play.

Bazenji... Nice little fellow.

We have two now, Lost a Golden Retriever last year and our big girl was lonely so we got a new puppy. Layla the big girl is a BRT, Black Russian Terrier, (google that one I bet it is not what you think..) The new pup is another one no one has heard of, A Nederlandse Kooiker Hundje. A smaller Dutch spaniel, one the foundation breeds for the Nova Scotia Duck tolling retriever.

New addition to our family after losing our Border Collie-Dalmatian mix after 15 years of faithfully following my wife everywhere she went, without fail...New dog is a Pointer/Border Collie mix.

He’s another Einstein dog that is constantly thinking and plotting. We rescued him a few months back, and he’s working out nicely...Named him Danner “Boot” because his head is too big. (Not a Pit Mix)

French Brittany. Awesome bird dog and house pet as well.

Dillon Buck is a boxer. Laying beside right now.
His dad is too stupid to know how to do pictures.

LOL

Spaniel Mix (rescue). Sweetest dog in the world.

Catahoula. I actually bought this problem child. She is a total clown.
