Nice pics! I thought I'd share too...

Here is my partner when we graduated from patrol/narcotics school (he didn't like the camera man) Meet K9 Gringo!

Lisa - FUNNY AVATAR!!!!!!!

Thanks! :D

I came across this picture of when we had 4 shar pei (several years ago) so I thought I'd add it. (The puppy with the huge basketball head is my Owen who passed away last spring).

Also I want to add this picture of my friend's Komondor "Ozzy" who had to be put down last month. :( He was 12 or 14 years old and was found wondering a state park in NE when he was a puppy. My friends family got to adopt him and he had been with them ever since.

Great collection. Ash that pic is just awesome! Was it taken in Australia? It looks like the Y camp in Estes Park. Someday I'm sur I will figure out hoe to put pictures in here, in the meantime our dogs and cats (etc.) can be viewed at www.serendipityfarm.com.

Thanks Lisa. Yes...Owen was my "best boy." Of all the dogs i've had, he & I had the greatest bond...still makes me sad that he is not here anymore. Hey you should post some pictures of your other dogs.

Ash...where is that? It looks like you guys are at the top of a ranger station tower.

Shawn...oh my gosh...we were walking Spanky & Bailey in the park a few days ago and this lady who has an old english bulldog (Bosely) was there. He is not even 2 and he was HUGE...over 90 pounds. They were all playing...it was pretty funny.

Yes, it is in Australia. We were on holidays in Bega (around 6 hours south of Sydney). It is a tiny cottage on a hill looking out over the valley. Nothing for miles. Very relaxing and better still they allow dogs (unusual for Australia). Full moon, just before light is amazing - fog and clouds in the valley, stars overhead. Just a great change for city people like us.

Another pic of Ard (I don't get many chances to post them!).

This at around 1 year old.

It's those eucalyptus / gum trees - gives it away every time!

Love those long hared Sheps. And ditto on the beautiful view.

OMG Sarah, that is too funny!! love it!!!!! :D My parents have a pekinese/dachshund mix named Mickey and mom has a Mickey Mouse kid shirt for her !

Esther...thanks...I bet your mom's dog looks great in her t-shirt too. Maybe you could get a pic and scan it in for fun. For Christmas they'll wear a collar & possibly the Santa hats...but they usually won't keep the hat on for long before they knock it off. :)

Pugs are great! Spanky's best friend at puppy class was a pug.

We used to have a female sharpei (Tootie) who also liked to eat material.

In fact that is how we got her from her previous owners. She was a show dog but had to have surgery to remove a rag from her stomach. After that they knew she needed a home to recouperate. She bounced back to health in a few months and was a beautiful dog.

One time at our house too she took a chomp out of one of Tim's shirts that had some kind of food on it. She took it right out of the laundry basket in the basement. He holds up his shirt and says..."there's a big hole in my shirt"...I was laughing too hard to have much sympathy. ;)

My Black Beauty.

200 lbs. of Newfie Mastiff and just the sweetest animal you'll ever meet. Unless of course you mess w/me or the family.

We have to keep the glass on the front storm door year round so she does'nt go through it when the pizza delivery guy shows up.

Something about the buckets of drool that spew from her face when she barks scares the guys so bad that they usually don't wait for the tip.

She is actually more expensive to maintain than my 911. Spent 6k on knee replacements alone in the last 2 years. Watching her run you'd never guess her ass end is held together with pins and plates.

Dog seat belt is very useful. Fits around chest and then loop through car seat belt. Otherwise jumping out to chase small critters is too tempting.

Scott....your dog is HUGE...& what a great face!

John...Do you know brand of dog seat belt you have? We have thought about getting one but were not sure which one was best and that the dogs would tolerate.

Have to check when I get home. Got it on line for about $14. My GSD is quite happy with it. It also prevents her falling over on me when we go into a hard right turn. It is simply a harness that fits over the back and chest and does not seem at all uncomfortable, though I have not tried it on myself. Its also good for stopping them putting claws on the top of the door and/or walking around the car (especially good if you are finicky about your leather seats).

The belts are great for keeping the muttly in one spot, but I have heard some conflicting stories around how good they are in the event of an accident. We use one on our GSD on long trips (or when we know she is going to get bored and wants to drive!). She complained a little when we first put it on her, but after a while it was like it was never there. Doubles as a harness if you want one too.

Your dogs are great guys! Keep those snaps coming!

Great pics fellas....gotta love those pets.

John...thanks for the link. I printed it for reference.

Spanky has only been in the back of the porsche & left many white dog hairs that took forever to get out of the carpet. Bailey went for his first porsche ride this summer.

He did really good for the most part & stayed in one spot...but then he got hot & started slobbering on the dash. He also needed more air which he would have gotten if he was in the back (when you're in the back it is like a wind tunnel...yes I have been stuck back in the children sized seats a few times & have experienced the wind tunnel effects....:) )
