Thread: Show us your ...........DOG

Harry dog. Heeler lab cross. Turns 11 this year.

Still misses his sister (had our old greyhound put down last year due to health conditions). But just the best dog ever.

Two weeks ago,tumour on the skin under her belly taken off,16 stitches,$1K,but all worth it.

I just love them such wonderful companions,had them all my life,but as they say,one day they will create a very sad day,but that is just a part of owning any type of pet.

Been there a few times.

Have to think of the good times and move on.

We had a Rhodesian Ridgeback like that, hated water but was keen enough to go into a dam to chase ducks.

Those ducks are bloody smart,well they are around here,one adult will attract the dogs attention,while the other adult(they are usually in pairs)will get the ducklings away and hide them.

Yesterday there were some ducklings in long grass a long way from the dam,the dog new they were there somewhere,but she never found them,as one adult would land about 2M in front of her,act like it was disabled,or hurt,attract the attention of the dog,then fly very low,keeping about 2M in front of the dog,off across the paddock.
Then once the dog gets to the end of the paddock,she stops and trots back to where it all started,and the Duck does it again.
This happened about 4 times,good exercise for the dog.

Another thing i notice with ours is she will always work up wind,with Quail as well.
I havent taught her anything with the hunting,it just comes naturally.

It's been 7 months since the passing of our beloved Pip, we now feel it is time to get another dog.
We found an add on Gumtree for an 11months old King Charles Cavalier , After a few Emails with the seller we made the trip up to the Sunshine Coast to meet with him to see if he liked us & we him. The result was he came home with us . We didn't want to have to go through the puppy stage & had been looking fore one that was older . So this is Remi he is 11months old mail de sexed that has had some training ( will stay , sit & get down off the couch when told this is something Pip failed & goes out side to the toilet ) he loves sitting in the A/C on the couch & I am hoping he will be a good companion for my wife .

The previous owner told us he slept out side in a kennel but last night was a restless might for him , was banging on the glass doors till 1am when I got up & locked him in the laundry . The previous owner had 5 other dogs so I guess he may have slept in a kennel with one of the other dogs & I think he may be a little insecure as he followers me around on my heal every time I move. Quite time at the moment sleeping on the couch with my wife , Arrrrrr getting too old for this , WHAT HAVE WE DONE!

Nothing like having a new dog....I will be looking for possibly another Australian Red Kelpie. If I could gat another longhair like Ellie it would be awesome
