St. Bernards
Where can I find info on the breed St. Bernard? I've always been interested on how the breed looks (that and my dad is obsessed with them) and I'm considering getting one in the future.. Probably when we get our Dane puppy.. Any advice would be great! Links also would be welcome! Thanks!

Black Mouth Cur
Not many people have heard of this breed, but I have an 8 month old Black Mouth Cur. She (Lacy) and her full brother (Zach) were given to me about 8 months ago, and I absolutely loved them both. Sadly, I lost the male dog (Zach) to my sister's German Shepherd. For those of you who do know this breed...

What breed is this shelter dog?
I'll tell you later what they call her, and she very well might be, I'm just curious if you guys see it, if that's what she actually is. Her litter's up for adoption, and BOY are they cute.. I'll post the picture of them in a bit too.

Papillon pedigrees and how to read?
Having just found Rascal's AKC pedigree, I'm curious as to whether or not any of the names in his family tree are famous or interesting or well-known dogs. Anyone know? A quick google search didn't turn up much. He's out of Cookie in Paradise and Adam's Paradise (sire). Adam is out...

Breed Advice for Next Dog
We aren't going to be getting another dog until next year sometime, but I just wanted to get some advice. We want to get a puppy, and we may get one from a breeder, but realistically we will probably end up with a shelter or rescue dog. A well bred dog with a health guarantee has a lot of appeal...

Bloodhound
My brother is interested in getting a bloodhound for actual tracking/hunting. He's wondering how much one would cost, one bred for this purpose (doesn't need perfect conformation). He insists he wants a puppy. I told him I have no idea how much they are or how hard they are to find. My brother...

GSD Movement Again (VIDEO!!)
The German Shepherd Dog's movement is described in detail in both the SV and AKC standard. Faults of gait are serious faults. Finding the GSD with "that movement" is something every breeder strives for, no matter the line. This is a video of a dog from the 80's who is the epitome...

Are miniature pinschers hard to house train?
I hope to not offend anyone with this question. If I do, let me apologize in advance. A friend recently bought a min pin puppy and seems to having very little trouble house training it. Would you guys say one breed is more prone to difficulty in this area than others? In comparison to some other breeds...

What breeds typically have pigmented gums?
Sometimes I feel like such an idiot. I really didn't know what certain BREEDS had pigmented gums, I guess I just thought it was a dog-specific thing. Come to find out it's pretty breed-related. Cherokee gums are mostly black, little splotches of pink. I've spent 8 years guessing at breeds...
