What breed of dog are you owned by?

[Haggis McBagpipe]

:lol: You have a dog toy box too!

I love the way male dogs mark the world. "This is MY forest." "This is MY street." and so on. Funniest thing I ever did see was the famed pissing contest. Angus saw the other male dog and immediately pee'd on a tree. The other dog came charging over and peed on top of Angus's pee. Angus pee'd on top of that, and round and round they went, I don't know where they found so much liquid. I think if we had left them to it, they would both still be peeing on that tree. And the look they give when they do that, it's a real strutting thing, "Ha! Take THAT! Go ahead. Check it out. Whoa, who's your daddy. Yeah, ha. There's NO WAY you're gonna pee on top of that little masterpiece . . . wha' the . . . damn! You did!"

God yes, lord help me if a male dog has been walked on our route before we take his nibs on his walk, he pees on every blade of grass and smells every rock. Yep Harley has a toy box inside the house and one for outside, we have no kids so this dog is very spoiled.

 

[I think not]

Gee wiz Cosmo, what a cute mutt....er I mean dog

Looks cute with that thing (whatever it is) in her mouth.

I am owned by an American Hairless Terrier. No shedding, no wet dog smell, it's great. He looks like a small whippet or a large Italian greyhound, with the personality of a Jack Russell.

I am owned by a pound hound part Black lab-Jack Russell, and the bloody dog never sits still. Haggis your dog is gorgeous, can I have him? Cosmo is your dog a Jack Russell? Beagles are hams by nature. I use to dog sit one in NFL and I swear that dog could fly, I had a fully fenced yard and Omar would some how find his way out of my yard. I'd spend all my time chasing or trying to find him. I love all dogs, it doesn't matter what the breed because they make you smile.

OMG. A Jack Russell and Lab mix. PLS post a photo if you can. Was it very big?

And speaking of flying Beagles.......(not mine of course.....although sometimes....she shoots, she scores)

Re: What Breed Of Dog Are You Owned By??

OOoohh! My favourite topic! I'm worse than people showing pix of their grandbabies ... in fact I had to nag the folks around here to see their baby pix!

We're owned by Moche. We adore her. She's typical Jack Russell Terror -- crazed. We love that the breeder doesn't crop the tails.

Here's her as a wee baby ... six weeks:

And here's her now, three years:

I love seeing everyone's fur baby pix! What a treat.

Cosmo,
I got the one picture back of my daughter's Jack Russell puppy - terrible - she turned her head and I got a picture of the back of the dog's neck. If I can ever get her to upload the digital photos they took to SnapFish, I'll get one for you. Trixie may be grown by then... :roll: I really haven't forgotten.

I think it needs to be a rule, you must post pictures of your cute-pie owners. I have approximately (give or take a few) 1,000,000,000,000,000 pictures of our owner, and I can happily post them all day. Just so you know. :lol:

Well, crapola, I guess that means I have to open my new digital camera (my 4th) and learn to use that thing all over again. I can do it, but I'm not that interested in photography. Maybe one day soon, I'll get some gumption.

Talking about peeing...I was doing it this morning when my cat decided to use the litter box behind me. She peed down the side of her leg, which she shook onto my bare leg. And then, she proceeded to exit shaking that one leg like a dance. I never saw a cat pee on their own leg 8O

Alas, there is no dog at Chateau Sinister, and I wish there were. There are instead two useless !%$#@$%! cats. I always made it clear to my wife and daughter that I didn't want a cat in the house. I think what they heard was that I didn't want *A* cat, which is perhaps why there are two of the useless little !&@#$@#$! here.

Can you go for a walk with a cat? No; a cat will run off in a second, and if you try to put one on a leash it'll just lie down and you'll have to drag it. Which actually I think is a good thing to do to a useless !@#!@$$!@$ cat. Will a cat love you? No; it may intermittently appear to, but that's only when it wants something from you. The slut. Can you play chase-the-ball with a cat? No; throw the ball and the cat will just look at you (if it's a particularly smart one) as if you're out of your mind. If it's a dumb one, as most of them are, it won't even notice you've thrown a ball. And you can't train the stupid little sh*ts to do anything. Cat lovers will tell you that's because cats are too intelligent and independent to be trained, to which I call B.S. People are far more intelligent and independent than cats, and they can be trained to do pretty much anything. Cats are just stupid.

I don't like cats very much. Maybe you could tell.

Ah, but if I had a dog to own me, it'd be a Jack Russell terrier. I've known half a dozen of them, and they were all smart, funny, lively, entertaining little guys, absolutely the best kind of dog for a city dweller. If I had more room, a black Lab would be my choice... well, no, that's not true, if I had more room I'd have both and spend large parts of my day running around the property with them.

But right now, the only kind of dog I want is one that'll kill off these !@$!@$! cats.

:lol: That was such a magnificent rant, Dex!

We had a wonderful cat, had him for just shy of twenty years. He would go for walks with us, although was never trained to do it. He would walk right along beside me, and if a dog came along he wouldn't run, he'd just trust us to make it safe for him.

We lived near some woods, so we were able to take some great walks together. When we lived in the city, though, I had to lock him inside when I went anywhere at all, because he basically did a Mary had a Little Lamb thing, he would follow me anywhere (which, in the city, was too dangerous).

He was such a neat old cat, totally trainable, too. In his young years, if he did something wrong, like claw the furniture, I just had to take a certain tone with him. He'd do it one more time to see if that was what I was talking about, and when I took the same tone again, he never did that thing again, ever. He died about eight years ago, and I still miss him.

 

[I think not]

Dex that was hilarious, I got coffee all over my keyboard :lol:

Oh yes, and cats rule

If I don't get another GSP next time I get a dog.....I think I will get a weimaraner.

 

[Sassylassie]

Cosmo as soon as I figure out how to transfer photos my pictures to this site I will post a picture of Harley. He weighs 60 pounds is black with a lot of white markings but his head is pure Jack Russel. He looks like a giant black rat, he even has the white whiskers. Handsome this dog is not.

Dexter, I loved your rant. I feel the same way about cats.

 

[Jay]

Hey Sasslassie, you should just pick up a scanner. They are relatively cheap these days...

 

[Sassylassie]

Jay wouldn't scanning a sixty pound dog break the scanner?

 

[Dexter Sinister]

Further to my pro-dog anti-cat rant of last night:

Here are the $!@$#@#$ cats pretending to like me, but they know their food's behind that door and they think I'm going to give them some any time I go near it. They're wrong.

Useless gits.

 

[Sassylassie]

Dexter are you sure there cats, they look more like barn rats.

RE: What breed of dog are

OMG Dex ... don't know how I missed your rant. Well said!! I'm totally a dog person too.

Yep ... JRs are a delight. We had ours at the off-leash area today. She goes insane chasing crows, which is funny, and joggers, which isn't as funny. We pretty much let her do whatever she likes in life so she's not especially well trained. But not a day passes that she doesn't make us laugh!

I'd lend her to you to solve the cat issue, but if they challenged her, Moche would run and hide. She talks big, but if anything chases her, she's behind her moms in a flash.

Sassy ... I use Photobucket for my pix. http://www.photobucket.com It's free and it's easy as pie to use. If you need your pix sized, let me know and I'd be happy to do that for you. You can email them to me, I can size them, and send em back.
