German Shepherds and stacking
I've noticed T-Bone naturally stacks when he stands alert. I've owned a lot of dogs, and they'll all do it on occasion, but it's just a pose T-Bone strikes! I know shepherds are taught to stack or hand stacked in the show ring, but is it a trait that's sort of bred into them now?...

One of our latest fosters. Breed ideas?
Hopefully this link will work. If not I'll have to figure something else out tomorrow. I haven't even seen the dog myself...only the photos. The color pattern is all brindle not merle. It was a bit hard to tell for sure, from the photos, and so asked one of our members who'd seen the dog...

What breeds do you see in Simba?
So I'm curious as to what breeds you see in Sim. I kind of see a boxador/pit almost? Sometimes he looks a lot like a pit mix, other times he doesn't. The people that rescued him and his siblings say he has husky in him, but they really can't just base that on his eye color... Side profile...

Looking to get another dog, but not sure what breed to go with
I'm currently in college so it will be a few years before I actually get a new puppy, and of course it will only be after I settle down in a new place, this is defiantly something I want to put a lot of thought and planning into. See I live alone, like it that way right now, don't have a boyfriend...

Ridge on a mutt?
Hey guys, I'm curious about something. So okay Simba, my 10 week old boxer mix looks like he has a bit of a ridge on him. I'm not sure if he has RR in him or not, but is it possible for a mix to have the ridge? I'll have to get a pic of it soon so you can be the judge, but I'm just curious...

Long Haired Rottie?
Is that for real? I've never heard of one before, but a friend just told me that is what he had. So I googled it, and they certainly look like rotties, but with a coat more like Coke's... I'm confused. Anyone??

Throw me some breed recommendations
I've been thinking about what I want in my next dog lately...I love the herders, but I think I'd like a change. I'm looking for a medium to small breed, 40 lb max, but smaller would be better, that's less intense and less maintenance than what I have now. I want a dog I can take places...

Beagles in blue merle? not...
Here is an interesting page a fellow Beagler made after doing some serious research into the "phenomenon" of the Blue Dapple/Merle Beagle. She's a tenacious lady to keep searching like she did...great stuff! Dapple Beagles

Belgian malinois- too old?
Someone I know is trying to re-home a 12 yr old belgian malinois female retired police dog. She's not being taken care of properly, is severly underweight, and is currently tied to a tree with a 6 ft leash 24/7. I have convinced them to find her a better place.I did some research on the breed to...

my cute babies
we breed three Chi Babies.they are Maxwell, (6 months) Milo, (9 months) & Matilda (also 9 months). While Milo & Matilda are on the bigger side of the Chi scale at 7 & 9lbs, Maxwell is on the more average size at about 4 1/2lbs. Milo is a bit more on the lazy side compared to the other two...

Doberman colors
Can back & tan parents have split litters - half balck/tan, half blue? I've always wanted, & still hope to some day have a dobe. I saw a sign yesterday advertising a littler of AKC pups, so I called & went to see the litter. The parents are both extremely gorgeous black & tan,...

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels
Anybody own one? Experiences? My next dog (many, many years from now hopefully) I want to be small, active, without too much grooming required (at least not as much as the Cockers), friendly towards people and animals. I don't think terriers would fit my lifestyle, but sporting dogs definitely...

Tell Me About Dobermans please.
Many of you know already, that I intend to get a dobe as my next dog. That likely won't be for several years yet, but I'm feeling especially inquiry-ish today. I have an extensive list of things I would tell to anyone thinking of getting a husky, but so far, I haven't found much that might...

Strictly for funsies: Guess the Gimme
Anyone want to take guesses? Obvioiusly it doesn't matter, as we all love our Grimm . His former owners, who acquired him as a wee thing (and signed him over at about 10 weeks) said he was a Shih Tzu mix. I do buy that as he has the Tzu lip (or the Gimme lip as we now call it) and some really...

What does Sookie look like?
Sookie was tied in a bag and thrown out of a truck window. Now my friend's family has her. No one really knows what breed she is. Every now and then i thought she looked mastiff-y in the face, but she's way too small. I was thinking more pit/some type of hound mix. She's around 15 weeks...
