[quote name='Cairn6'][quote name='bk_blue']Privacy fences, as you call them, are the norm here. And they are all at least 6ft tall, too. I'd find it really strange to have a see-through fence, a short fence, or no fence at all, in the backyard! :)[/quote] In my area too. I can't imagine walking out in your backyard and the neighbors are sitting there staring at you. :lol: Especially my neighbors with the pool. There is no way I want to see that guy in a bathing suit. :o[/quote] around here it's the law that if you have a pool you must have a privacy fence...but other than that a chain link fence is pretty much the norm here..of course there are a few people who have privacy fences..

that's definately not normal.. how old is she? if she keeps on vomiting and has diarhea, i would take her to the vet first thing in the morning..she could have parvo wich is a deadly disease that puppies get..it kills them quickly

i want a privacy fence soo bad!! we are like you..we have a 3 1/2 chain link fence..and my dogs jump it..and i have a very crappy neighbor who likes to torment my dogs and then complain to the city when they bark at him :evil: oh how i wish we could afford a privacy fence...

they are very striking dogs. and the breeder does look like a very responsible one. i too agree that color should not determine the quality of a dog. as long as the color doesnt contribute health problems(like merle danes and such) i see no reason why a certain color should be looked down upon in any breed. i'd buy one if we lived in a dream world of no overpopulation

[quote name='K']Now thats good news :D ...did you just get an update?[/quote] i had just looked at their website and i scrolled down and it said he'd been adopted :D

just you.. :P

[size=7]WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO[/size] THIS BOY WAS ADOPTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[color=red][size=6]URGENT![/size][/color] [img]http://128.192.214.240/~ally/current/19885.jpg[/img] [img]http://128.192.214.240/~ally/current/19885x.jpg[/img] Name: Sam Age: 1 year Breed: Boxer Gender Male - Neutered! Impound Date: 5/26 Ledger #: 19885 Why Choose Me? I'm the definition of cool! I'm a calm boy who sits and shakes on command. I have an underbite that is so cute you can't help but grin. I'm very friendly to people, and my cage is surrounded on each side by cages containing puppies who I seem to be very fond of. I'm also completely housebroken. My owner is getting deployed to Iraq, so he had to surrender me. I'm current on all shots, neutered, and I don't chew on the wrong things when left inside by myself. I've always lived inside and outside...the combination suits me just fine. I'm good with kids and I get along well with dogs and yes with cats as well.

:roll: you do need to do something about your dog...his barking isnt going to be so cute when you end up like the people who were taken to court and ORDERED to have their dogs vocal cords removed or get rid of them. you dont need to be hitting the cat with anything nor do you need to take him to the pound..simply shoo him out of your yard

i know alan..or use to.... :-? he's a pretty cool guy and yup he asks all sorts of questions..it's just what he does :lol: it's kinda cool though..it does help to get to know people and their pets and stuff... :D

it's the same breed as a basset, just has long hair :lol: that hair isnt that much longer, pretty much the most noticeable part is their tail cause it has pretty long hair on the tail... whenever i get a camera i'll try to get a pic of the long haired basset that this kid has. i think the long hair is just something that happens every once in awhile.. this person has a lil website for their rescued long haired basset :D [url]http://www.geocities.com/phnx177/Bubba.html[/url]

it probably was a long haired basset hound..there are such things :lol: a kid a couple blocks from me has one..very pretty :D

[b]no[/b] i have strong views on alot of stuff but for some things i dont expect people to agree with me and i accept it. like with outside dogs, i dont like having my outside but i dont have a choice. i do have a problem with those who have outside dogs like my neighbor and they neglect them. but i dont have a problem with those who have outside dogs but those dogs are still part of the family and are well cared for and loved. mainly i can see others views unless it comes to harming a dog like game testing or abuse. or if it comes to breeding..i dont see a byb's point of view because back yard breeders are one of the biggest(if not the biggest) problems of overpopulation, now i do respect responsible breeders

luckily we have some smart squirels around here :lol: they have learned to stay the heck out of our yard or they will get eaten..i've found a couple dead ones in our yard...maggie may be old but she can still get a squirrel :lol:

Some expensive brands are the best and others like eukanuba are just expensive and CRAP. what ya need to look for in a food is a food that has meet as it's first 1-3 ingredient and very little to no grains and fillers. NO corn and NO by-products some good brands off the top of my head are chicken soup dog food, wellness, innova, wysong, canidae, solid gold...there are others but those are the ones i can think of right now. you wont find them at a grocery store or a place like petsmart. usually you can find them at feed stores and lil pet stores..

alot of it has to do with pictures...see if the shelter can get better pics of them....like maybe out in the grass all happy and stuff...people will be more interested in a dog if the pictures show a happy dog :D

well on the subject of dressing up dogs and stuff like that... i'm getting back packs for my dogs and my friend was like "oh my god why would you do something like that, i hate when people dress up their dogs" :o uhhhh... i'm getting them back packs...so that they can carry like water bottles and foods and treats on the hikes..ya know..give em a lil extra work out.. "well ya i know but i just hate when people put sweaters and stuff like that on dogs...dogs shouldnt be dressed up" yea i know..but putting a back pack on a dog is not dressing a dog up..it's not like a jacket... :roll: strang people everywhere :lol:

very good paper!! :D :D i wish i'd could write papers :lol:

i dont know what is up with my dogs today :roll: earlier i was sittin here a the computer and barkley was laying by my feet and shadow comes up and sniffs him and all the sudden they are at each others throats :o nothing big, they stopped as soon as i yelled and were back to normal.. then just a bit ago i was teachin the dogs some new fun tricks, and i guess blaze(cat) got up and took a treat off the table cause all of the sudden barkley's al over him and then the whole pack mentality thing kicks in and they are all goin after blaze, i get barkley off him and then ozzy goes after him down stairs and i'm yellin at my brother to grab barkley, so he grabs barkley and throws him in the crate and i race down stairs, luckily ozzy had already let go of him and was on his way back upstairs :roll: what is today? start a fight for no reason day? :lol:

they already repealed it once though :x i wish they would just repeal it and leave it at that! Denver is a high tourist area..and yes believe me people who love pit bulls will not spend their money there and thats alot of loss for denver :evilbat:

it could have been the skateboard....ozzy freaked out when my brothers friend came in the yard and he was carrying a skateboard

very nice :D i couldnt draw like that if i wanted to :cry:
