Dogs

My dog would shit all over that costume, and in it. Its damn funny though, I loled, tee-hee!

MTK are you the monkey riding the dog?

cute pic's. Reminds me of my family and our dogs. Sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. I havent had much expirence with losing dogs, but im sure my time is coming. I have 3 dogs, 6yr old black lab, 3yr old black lab/blue heeler, and a 3 mth old black lab/pit. pics are here if you want to see check mine out they are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chrisletexier/

I have two black labs and each of those suckers easily sheds as much as a golden retriever or a german shepherd.

I'm partial to labs also, most likely since i've owned one. My favorite pet of all time was a German Shepherd. Absolutely the smartest animal I've ever owned. The lab was a better hunter, but the shepherd... he was all around something special.

NO wonder why Captain hated gunfire!

Do The Dishes!!!!

I'm down with Ceaser- I am always calm and assertive around my dogs They know who the pack leader is.

I had a black lab when I was growing up. They love children. They are extremely loyal. My lab would put up a show if a stranger came by. Hair on end, snarling, the works. However, if you approached her she would back down. What drove my lab nuts was my dad ran a game bird farm. She would spend hours running around the edges of the fence scaring up the birds. Which was an advantage for my dad because the birds learned to be really afraid of dogs.

they don't fucking like it people!

That's the way to do it. I'm not saying be mean and yell at them--I don't even have to yell at my dogs. But assertive is definitely the key. But--looking at this blog again I realize I sound like a pompous prick...so feel free to hate me because of it :)

that is funny frog, but my mini pin will not be dressed up. She would rather eat treats all day.

She's a great looking dog. I know what you are going through. My beagle has allergies too. He's doing pretty well now. We've switched him and our other dog to a grain free food, Wellness Core, which has helped a lot. Really cut down on the shedding too. He's still a gassy SOB though.

I'm also realizing I am in a very small minority when it comes to my 'dogs don't have feelings' platform...so I'll just shut up about it from here on out.

For the most part, I agree. Dogs most definitely are pack animals and humans need to assert themselves as the leader of that pack. But, I also think dogs do have feelings. Now, anthropomorphisizing them isn't always right, either.

The more I learn about people the more I like my dog. I have an Australian Cattle Dog, smart, loyal, but way too energetic The next one might be a lab, or a weimaraner

Labs are cool. My dad had two black ones. I have an English bull. She's pretty smart but stubborn, and snores like a mo'fo! :^) But, I love her to death!
