So you ordered one in large and the other small... when is the medium one coming?

Good looking pups!

Seriously... I mean, sometimes he doesn't want to go for a walk so he'll just sit there. But If I say "you wanna check the mail?" that usually gets him going. Not today though.

Thanks! I tried for a third, but the wifey wasn't having any part of it.

Got any genetics on the little one? She kinda looks like a tiny lab... maybe with a little chewowow mixed in?

No, but the vet thought Chiweenie (chihuahua and dachsund). I really want to get the DNA test. She is almost certainly part chihuahua, she's got those bugged out chihuahua eyes.

haha. they are long lost siblings!!!!

the rescue shelter told us he was a “lab mix”

DNA teat says (spoiler alert- no lab)
50% american staff
12.5% bulldog
12.5% boxer
12.5% chow chow
12.5% “breed group” - guard, terrier, herding,

Oh yeah, from that angle you can really see the Staffy in the shape of his face.

What company did you go with for the DNA results?

“Morning walk in low humidity before I go to the groomers!”

Great looking pup.

Trace with my daughter's rescue Kona. Trying to get a picture of them both looking at you is damn near impossible
Kona has about 14 different breeds in her, but she's has more Great Pyrenees than anything else.
When my daughter brought her to the vet because she wasn't eating well, the vet said it's because of her Great Pyrenees bloodline and they will get bored of her food after a while. She just buys small bags of food now, because she stops eating it after a while and wants something different.
Last night on a walk with the dogs, we saw some people with a Great Pyrenees and they confirmed that their dog is a "grazer" too
I firmly believe given the opportunity, Trace would eat until he popped

I've never had a dog that wasn't extremely food motivated. So strange to me to hear about dogs that won't eat, or are picky eaters. Hell, my Brooke loves to eat puzzle pieces, and tags off of new clothing and my Jaina eats shit.

Cute!
Mine hates the heat. Friday he goes to the groomers to get shaved. He hates going, but he's so happy after it's all over

I know!
Weird thing is she used to eat rocks on our hikes all the time. It would drive my kid nuts
She doesn't do that anymore, but still eats sticks and will regularly puke up something that looks like a birds nest

[Beefsteak1138]

Jaina recently puked up the two ears from one of her dog toys.

[DMBstandUP1984]

Thankfully my dog doesn’t really eat anything, I did notice on our walk a few days ago she had half a honey dip donut in her mouth, no idea where she got it.

She used to eat rabbit poop but I trained her out of that.

When I would cut pineapple up Trace would eat it. I had to stop doing that because my wife found where he would puke it up later

Raspberries are still OK

this is awesome!

Riff loves blueberries... I can't wait to see his reaction when the blueberry bush has actually blueberries on it.

Same! It is honestly hard to find poop to pick up in my yard because it is mostly bundles of grass/wood/fabric

They are not always the damn best. This little girl ate about 20% of her body weight in half cooked chicken. Kept an eye on her and thought she was ok, until about two days later when she started puking and shitting everywhere. Then she barely moved for the rest of the day.

Took her to the vet, and she is fine now…..$200 later.

Glad she’s feeling better my setter will eat anything she finds. We went out for a walk a few days ago, I looked down and she was chewing on a random slice of pizza she found in the park. I really hate grabbing someone else’s half eaten slice of pizza out of my dogs mouth haha.

I feel you. The other day I had to pull a dead snake out of her mouth.

[Spell On Me]

Beefy, you have so many "my dog ate" stories. Glad she's feeling better.
