Time for another ‘my dog is awesome’ thread

[Celery Man 20832]

Sorry to hear about Eddie.

 

On a lighter note - Kevins are apparently Kevins all over - this is a dog I met walking down from a hike in Monachil, Spain.  He had a ball that needed to be thrown.

Got a new chair, it rocks back and forth and reclines. Chuy is all "fuck that noise, wheres my old chair???" Shes also a little freaked out by things that move and make noise. Anyways, get home late last night, sit in the chair and boom! There she is, jumps up on my lap

Eddie. Good boy.

[LebongJames 1781]

RIP Eddie. You never feel like another guy will replace them but if do go that route when you are ready. You will some of Eddie in the next guy and it will just be the best feeling.

Agree completely. Luna has her own personality, but she definitely does not take any shit from other dogs just like Amber didn't.

That’s a guilty face if I’ve ever seen one. Still haven’t found what Walter got into.

Kevin is at Exmoor while I’m away. They just sent me an update. He is a good boy.

[Biff Tannen 45439]

Kevin's got meth teeth.  Looks like a good boy though.

Does anyone have an English lab? We’re starting to look at dogs now that we’re about to be in the new house. Wife doesn’t want a big dog. Her idea and mine might be different. Our last dog was big - lab/Great Pyrenees. Her head was about to my waist. She weighed around 74. But she had really long legs and actually looked really thin. I would love a clone of her.

 

My wife is thinking smaller. She sent me a mini puppy that someone was offering the other day. My answer “that’s a mini”. I can’t do a dog that’s 13”.

 

So English lab popped in my head. I knew someone a long time ago who had a couple. I just remember they were about knee high. Calmer than regular labs.

 

Any help? Thoughts? I have a large yard, three kids 7/5/5 and I need a dog that will learn. In the past dogs have fallen in my lap. I keep waiting for that to happen but it’s been way too long. Thinking it might be time to take action.

Great dogs.

Here's our brand new English lab, Chester. Got him two weeks ago.

[Fuga 179]

Daughter and hubby have both an English Lab (Red) and regular ol' Lab (Black). Spent WAY too much money but got 2 very smart and easily trained dogs. Excellent whether hunting or letting their 1-yr old abuse them.

Both the same size within a pound or two and in hight. Lots of exercise. Not neutered. English lab seems more lean/slim.

Hope this helps.

[TexasHooch 5115]

English Labs are generally a little shorter, not as long, and heavier than American Labs.  They have blockier heads and, while good hunters in their own right, are not quite as high energy.  My dog's dad is 85 lbs.  His mom is 65.  They're not small dogs.

Yeah, was gonna say the same thing. They are bigger but look better, imo.

Chester and Walter need a YouTube show.

The cuteness! Those faces! The personalities!

They could be like two young lads taking on the big city and we get to watch them learn valuable life lessons and the hijinks that ensue!

And there’s nothing cuter than a young pup with an old man name.

Also saw the biggest hound dog ever, way bigger than the retrievers that were running around

Definite pecking order in my house. Penny cleans Emma's ears, while Blue cleans Penny's. Weirdos.

Chuy shelters in the bathtub when bad weather hits

 

[Deej 76398]

Blue hides under the bed until I decide to go outside, then she's like, "I don't give a fuck!"

[Deej 76398]

Blue keeps losing her favorite toy, a puppy teething ring. I can never find them, so I keep buying another. Walk in tonight to this...

Walter reminds me of my Belle, who’s all grown up now. Miss those puppy days.



Far and away best dog I’ve ever had. Just a tremendous pup.

Goodbye sweet girl. 

Today Olive decided that she was ready to go.  She's stopped eating and can't stand up.  Calling around to make her final arrangements and bawling like a baby.

From the moment we found her in the pound to today, her last day, she had been the most loyal, loving, smart, and happy dog I've ever known.  I'm going to miss her terribly.

Olive, I love you.  I hope I was worthy.

Honestly, can’t remember if I posted pics of Pearl, the white English lab I gave to my wife as a surprise Xmas gift. She’s almost 5 months now.

Thanks. She was about a year in that pic. 18 months now, but never grew anymore. She topped out at 54#.  Like yours, she took to fetching immediately. I’ve got her coming along great - she’ll sit and wait to be commanded to get her bird, works real well with her nose, etc. Hopefully she’ll be hunting this year - although she’s the biggest house lap dog I’ve ever seen. Sometimes she’ll scoff at going outside just because. The wife has spoiled her.

Had a Vizla when I was a kid. Fantastic dog. Best hunting dog I've ever been around. Point, flush, retrieve, endless endurance...dog did anything asked of him. Was very protective of us kids, too.
