Currently : male and female rottie, 2 male rat terriers, male and female chihuahua and a male cocker spaniel.
As a side note - they are all spayed and neutered, no breeding in this household ever!!
Wow! And I thought that our three APBTs were a hand full! lol! My husband keeps swearing to me that people don't have 3 dogs.. He says it's too many! I keep telling him that there are a lot of people out there with 3 or more dogs! I grew up down the street from someone that had 5 full grown St. Bernards in the house! If I counted right, that's 7 dogs. That's awesome.. what a great pet parent! If we could afford and handle more than three right now I would love to have more, but that will have to wait for a little while! Do all of you dogs get along? We just got our third, Jayda, and Jayda (our 7 1/2 month old female) and Destiny (our 6 month old female) play together all of the time and kind of leave Brooklyn (our 1 year 2 month old male) out of things! I always try to give him extra love when they do that because I don't want him to feel left out! I was just wondering if that was a normal thing when you have more than two dogs or an un even number of dogs? I also wanted to ask you, sinse you have to know quite a bit about dogs, if you think that they will all get use to each other in time, and quit leaving Brooklyn out?? They are all get along great and we have only had Jayda for 5 days (I think it's been 5 now??).
I rescued a Chessie from the local pound, but since I only had him a month did not count him. I have seen pumis at dog shows I think...are they med size & their hair grow in cords?
Too bad about the Chessie. Great dogs.
The dog you're thinking of is a puli, which is another Hungarian herding dog. The pumi is pretty much a puli but without the cords and a little terrier thrown in. Apparently the puli are sheep herders, while the pumi is a cattle herder; or at least that's there most common role.
Nice looking dog. I am going to follow your link to learn more. Thanks
the chessie was dropped at the pound the guy got him for hunting said he was gun shy. I did some basic obed with him Took him to a match in Northen VA some lady that raised chessies reconized his line, she called the breeder. So I gave him back to the breeder. I tried to rescue the pure breed dogs & retrain them then find them good homes this was in the 70s & early 80's. 2 years later I got a photo of the chessie Champion Field Dog! So why the guy dumbed him in the pound we never found out.
Awwww....to cute....that breed reminds me of koala bears....lol....fuzzy ears, and soooooo cute!
My family always had German Shepherds, for as long as I can remember, and I grew up with them. We also had a Poodle when I was little, alongside a German Shepherd.
Right now I have a German Shepherd and a Mix......
It's kind of weird to think, that my Mix doesn't get along with any other dog, but the GSD is his best bud.
They are, literally, "partners in crime"....LOL.
The only breed i will ever own:..... German Shepherd Dog. The intelligence, loyalty, aloofness, grace, majesty, love, friendship and dedication this breed provides, is what kept my love for the breed.
As a child i had a little Spitz, and some mix (Sheep dog/Golden). But it's always GSD that kept my interest. I am completely dedicated!!
