Blitz loves Goldies too- there were 3 at the park today and he tried to hump all of them *embarrassed headshake* :oops: what breed should we do next? Australian Cattle Dog- but I'm biased :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepseasnake Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 I picked up a pup from the local PAWS branch about 3 years ago we named her Nikki and that was that. my neighbor had a HUGE golden named Bosco and THAT was THAT. well nikki broke out at the same time Bosco broke out and off they went to make puppies, nikki was not even 2 years old and when we found her we had no idea what had gone on. For the most part she didn't even look pregnant she would just act a little unusual. after awhile her nipples started to fill so we took her to the vet. The vet said that she was NOT pregnant and that everyting we noticed was cuz she was in heat, ( :roll: yeah right) well needless to say she gave birth a few weeks after the vet told us for the 2nd time she wasnt pregnant. She had one male pup that was the size of about 6 we named him oscar and he is now the funniest, playfullist, dumb as a doornob dog I have ever seen absolutly gigantic to we got more hilarious puppy stories out of that one dog than most families get in a life time. by the way both dogs are now neutered and spad :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooshie Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 oh I LOVE Goldens!!!...I have an uncle in Canada who breeds and shows them...they are SO smart! When I was a little girl I used to spend as much time as possible at the kennels helping out...in return my uncle used to let me tag along when he was showing his dogs or doing obedience demonstrations. I SO wanted a Golden when I was growing up. THEN I met my sister's Boxers and the rest is history...LOL...My boxer boy is THE best dog you could ask for...but I still would love to have a Golden someday.....and maybe a Dobe...ooooh and a pug....hmmmm...I think I need to move to a farm :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 See, everyone can learn something from these boards. Deepsnake, I was very surprised to learn that PAWS, or any other rescue would let an unaltered dog leave their place. I really was flabbergasted and had no idea. I'm glad you got a really nice girl from them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepseasnake Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 I dont understand, why not? ohh you mean the spad (spaid?) thing, I think they told me she was to young or something, I had to sign papers that said I would get her fixed a year after I got her which I did...it was just a bit to late :oops: smooshie you sound just like me, my next dog to be a boxer :lol: then an american bulldog then a shar pei then a neopolitan mastiff, then another husky (with blue eyes) then a british bulldog....and on and on I think I need my own Island :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepseasnake Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 god knows I cant go to a pet store without leaving with a new friend. my girlfriend calls me an addict :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 Ha! The guy at out petstore gets things because he knows I will not leave without them! I cannot tell you how many corals I have in my tank because of my addiction. Thankfully my husband has no idea how much money has gone into that small space in the living room, he'd probably feint dead! And don't get me started on guppies.... I just love guppies! And then I walk down the dog treat isle, well Hazel is still young and she doesn't know about all the different toys, so then we just have to try them all out right? I tell ya it's a good thing that I have friends with dogs or we'd be overrun with dog toys that Hazel didn't like... and there are so many more to go! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 The Irish Setter was outcrossed with them when the Irish was "over" bred to bring back in its qualities for hunting but had to be registered as a Red Setter. Most of AKC working Irish's derived from this breeding! Father raised them for trials 8 yrs in Texas. There is a Llewellin and a Laverack English setter. Also the names of the 2 men who first recorded and bred these dogs). Llewellin Setters dominated the field trials for a long time and earned their own place in the FSDB. Can make excellent family dogs! Are extremely beautiful to see and to watch work in a field doing what they love! These dogs can point a bird at 8-12wks it is really amazing!

GSDmom Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 That's a gorgeous setter. I would imagine that there is a split between the working and show dogs. I'm guessing the working dogs don't have quite that much hair! JMHO of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted August 23, 2002 Share Posted August 23, 2002 Yes there is a split... Imagine grooming that setter after a hunt in the field! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
