What would you have like to known about your breed?
I have been working on our web site and found it took on a life of it's own. While cruising other sites I found myself thinking hmmmm they all look like decent sites but most often with a Marketing thrust. When talking to folks I have asked them "What would you have liked to have known about...

Web Site Agnst- Bonita of Bwana
I am close to ready to publish my site, I have bought the domain name and it goes on line this weekend..I think. I know I am way too close to it and can no longer tell if it is informative and funny or just annoying. So I need a couple of purebred fanciers, (it does not have to be Ridgebackers), that...

Foster boy what breed
Have to figure out what to put up on petfinder when putting this little fellow up. He's the cutest little guy. About the size of a Boston maybe just a bit bigger. His body is a bit longer than tall. The long hair is mostly just around his neck and some of the upper body and head. It's almost...

Aussie help
My cousin's Christmas present is that she gets to pick out a dog. She is in a play right now so they are waiting until spring. I'm pushing a rescue/shelter dog and they agreed sometime we will go to the shelter together and I can explain the dogs' charts since I use to walk dogs there. My...

Now that she is older...
What do you think Soda is? Right now she is about 8-9 months old, probably 40-45 lbs. She has a very soft personality, and loves everyone (though she is a little wary of children for some reason). She is VERY fast and runs circles around her GSD friends. Very intelligent, as well. She learns quickly...

Labrador Retrievers
A thread about our Labs. I created this because I am getting tired or people always remarking how 'stupid', 'dumb', and 'slow' they think Labs are. This is not to put this breed above all others but to show their good traits and that they are intelligent, strong, and loyal dogs...

help me pick a breed
Ok, this is meant to be kind of fun. Of course I'm not going to run out and buy a dog because someone says they are nice. BUT, I have spent so much time looking around at dog info sites reading about breeds, and I thought where to get the best breed info than from people who actually own those breeds...

Am Bulls - Need to Know! :)
My soon-to-be neighbor and good friend just adopted a rescue American Bulldog, purebred, sired by a "Grand Champion" from Texas (sad story - mismarked puppies sold to a family who ended up neglecting them severely). This nine month old female is the most amazing dog. I'm not a novice dog...

Thoughts about "doodles"
John Q. Public gets a lot of information about the horrors of puppy mills, but most have a very limited understanding of what "we" consider a puppy mill. To the average puppy buyer, those slick internet ads about "designer breeds" are very appealing. The breeds aren't the old...

Breed suggestions...
Not for me this time! LOL! For my Gandma, if she is strong enough after kemo and still wants a dog, I am going to get her one. She needs it to be a small dog, under 25pounds? And no need much up-keep, like, no Shih Tzu's because they need hair-cuts regularly, so, smooth or wired hair. She said a...

what breed?
I spent today wandering around the Biltmore Estate in Asheville,NC ex home of George Vanderbilt and there were various family pictures featuring a very large, mostly white, with brown patches, seemingly short haired, flop eared dog. Almost looked Saint Bernard-ish but shorter hair and more white. Any...
