I have pictures to share but I'm not able to get the file sizes down. Am I better off uploading them to a site and linking them?

I went into the picture on my phone and clicked on it. It gave me the option at the bottom to resize it

Quick question....

Is it considered a rescue if the dog is currently not in a shelter?  A few dogs I'm looking at online were either strays brought into a home or fostered who used to be in a shelter.

Semantics.  But most people consider dogs you're looking at as adoptions.

 

As in my case, I didn't rescue my retired racing greyhounds, I adopted them. They came from a foster home.

 

Rescue, to me, has some really hard core connotations. Like you were extending bits of a quarter pounder to a dog living under in a ditch.

 

But in the end, you can call them whatever makes you feel right.

I had to use an app, can't remember what it's called though.

Did you ever notice how dogs resemble the looks of their owners.

 

I think if you post a pic, should have the owner too:

I use Photo Compress App.  Get it under 200kb site limit.

 

Oh... I saw you.  You don't look like: "the most beautiful and sweetest Golden you have ever seen on a commercial, or in person."

 

?


 

A lot of people always say my dog and I look very similar. Here’s a picture of the two of us:

imgur.com is the best for getting pics online quickly and easily, imo.

@Gugny this is a GREAT idea for a thread!! I have to say, I’ve met a lot of people from this board at this point. The dogs are WAY better looking than we are.

 

Same, here and I agree !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trying to figure out how such ugly people created such beautiful dogs? ??

 

I’m trying to figure out why my dog doesn’t run away! She can do much better......

so petey on the right was adopted out to our cousin up in kenmore.  my son named the dog and now our cousin has decided to rename the dog...Augie. I'm a little pissed about that. 

This is our old girl Bella. The rescue was playing with her and she tore her ccl. Crate bound for the next 10 days and limited activiy for the next two months after that.

Let's not turn this into a "Would ya?" thread, okay?

I’m fooling nobody, the dog stays because my wife lives here.

 

Same here. And it's not just the dogs - everyone likes my wife better than they like me. So do I, for that matter. ?

Same boat here! I just got off the phone with my mother (checking to see if she’d run out of anything), and even though she’s my own mother, I’m afraid she would vote me off the island before my wife! She’s pretty sharp for 92 years old, she’d make the right call, and I wouldn’t blame her. 

 

Even the dog, who was MY birthday present 10 years ago, bonded with my wife. I’m the one who walks her and picks up the poop, I take her to the groomer and the vet (which she LOVES), I feed her and take her for rides (another favorite activity). BUT, when we’re not home she sleeps in my wife’s closet so we eventually put a bed in their for her. If my wife leaves for another bedroom (somebody around here may snore a bit) the dog follows her. Goldens are smart dogs!

A Dog's Journey on Netflix is a must watch for you dog lovers! A little corney, a little slow in the first half, but very well worth watching till the end! My daughter and I almost gave up on it, but we were both happy that we didn't! It is a sweet movie, and I promise you will at least get a little choked up if not shed a tear or two.

My new dog Gracie.


She was at a high kill animal shelter and one day from being euthanized.  

 

She's a boxer/pit mix.  She's the most calm dog I've ever been around.  She doesn't even bark.  She can but only has done it once.  She's even good with cats.

 

Only issue with her is she takes forever to pee on a leash.  I think she's so focused on the walk and forgets to pee.  Can this easily be corrected?

Try having her just pee on the ground first.  When she's good at that, she'll eventually get her aim good enough to pee on a leash.

This is my girl, Misty, a black lab/beagle mix. This was taken January 2019 when she was a little over 10 years old, watching me work from home. She will be 12 on October 15th. We got her her in 2008, the same year my mom passed from cancer. Misty was the sixth of six in a litter of labs given away by the owner (her sister, Penny, was the 5th and is owned by my sis). Her dad was a pure bred black lab and her mom was a lab/beagle mix. The two got out and do what dogs do and an unlikely family was born. Her dad's owner (breeder) was not happy but we were. She's brought a lot of love into our lives and is as sweet as she appears in her photo. ❤️

That is, almost word for word, what I was going to write. If we think alike, one of us should be concerned. I'm not sure which, though.

Love what you wrote about Misty, but I can't see a pic.
