This is a shoe? Is it wrong?

Love the side eye, with the white showing. "Am I in trouble....again?"
She reminds me of my Mopar when she was a pup, but Mope is a short hair black.

If anybody is near Indiana and looking for an adult dog. He is 7 years old with an expected life expectancy of 12-14 (I have gotten as much as 17). He is ratty looking from neglect, but at 7, these dogs are perfect. They are unassuming and loving to a fault. They say GSD cross, but I don't see it at all.

Handsome boy on the search for his forever home to live out his golden years.

Male, neutered

Shepherd mix

7.5 years old

59 lbs
Introducing Alister! He is a 7.5-year-old Shepherd mix that is available for adoption. He is missing a lot of hair on his back due to a flea allergy left untreated for a long time. We just started treating him so it should start to grow back soon! We had senior bloodwork done on him and everything came back normal! Now on to his personality! This handsome boy is as special as can be! He's so affectionate and gentle and loves to lay close to people. We haven't formally introduced him to another dog, but he's pretty laid back and could possibly coexist with another similar personality dog! He keeps his kennel area pretty tidy, so we think he's mostly if not fully potty trained! This handsome boy can't wait to meet you!
If you’re interested in meeting Alister, you can fill out an application at Lakeshorepaws.org/adopt and call our office at (219)476-PAWS!

This is the way Diesel rides in the pickup if I'm driving faster than 50. His head is out the window before that. Front feet on the floor, chin on the dash.

He gets pretty wind-blown.

My older son was home for Thanksgiving. I enjoy getting to fuss over his dog and take care of walking duty. She's a sweetheart..

Synchronicity
Or sometimes, life is just weird.
I rarely talk to my next door neighbor.
About 2 week ago I went out in the morning and witnessed another neighbor's cat fighting and chasing off a fox.
(Cool cat and the fox sat in the street for a minute afterwards shaking it off and looking like "WTF".)
Yesterday, I did stop to tell to the next door about the recent fox incident and found they had to put down their Great Pyrenees.
Cancer.
They got a new pup already.
This is hitting the news today.

Can't handle a coyote or fox.
But if a mouse ever gets in my house, it's toast

Cuda is still in surgery recovery jail, with the girlfriend, for a few more days.

My girlfriend bought a couple dog beds like that. Not one dog of mine has ever used one for a minute. She gave away a couple, one is gathering dust outside.

When we first bought the Koolaroo units, the dogs wouldn't get on them. Put dog beds on top, bingo!

If I make Thor place and stay on that dog bed, he hates it. When he gets bored in the shop, he will go lay on it.

She finally did it!
Her first bird!
I shot another one but we couldn't find it. I was thinking we're doomed, shot this one it went down in a thicket and when I was close enough I sent her in and she ran it down. I'm super proud of a pound dog that is on her third home and didn't even know how to sit 6 months ago. Next year is gonna be awesome when I mix in ducks, she loves swimming and retrieving in water.
Her beard stuck out like that for 10 minutes afterwards! Lol she's hooked.

Happy Holidays All!

The above post is mine, from March of this year. This update is for those of you who have wondered how this pup has been doing.

Charly is a very happy, spoiled boy nowadays! This is his family now and he loves it. He is still quite clingy, but in the nicest ways. Many nights I end up with my head and Charly's on my pillow (paws across my neck)!

Charly goes on walks, to dog parks and gets excited whenever the harness comes out.

With that being said, there are still challenges. He is very smart and knows the signs of my wife or I getting ready to leave the the house. This - in his eyes - is a very bad idea, requiring multiple possible actions! Separation anxiety is still an issue...

First, the soft touch. When I am moving around getting ready to leave, he will (as often as possible) stop in front of me and quickly sit up, waving both paws in the air. He loves to have me hold both paws in one hand, holding him up, while petting him with the other. He enjoys this all the time, but he has also figured out that if he does this while I am getting ready, I have to stop what I am doing...SO he will do this repeatedly!

Second, time to slow progress. Daddy (me) is still going?! Time to steal shoes, socks or even coats and take off with them.

Third, time to get serious. Barking, grabbing and not letting go. Obviously we are still working on this.

He, like many Golden Retrievers, is a natural born thief and should be on wanted posters. He steals shoes, clothing of all kinds, dish towels/rags and much more. He then proudly prances around showing off his latest bounty!

Once again, he has come a long way and is very happy.

Tom (Rebellion)

Charly, sitting up (paws crossed, held by me...he loves this) with four socks!

Cute, Charly

I hope he never eats any of them
I had a GF that had a dog/ Akita that started out, to just carring them around
he ended up wanting to eat & swallow them, for some damn reason
Very expensive surgery after that, 2 times in 10 years too,
you'd think he would have learned the 1st time...

Why they do it, there's no flavor to speak of why would they eat them...
I can see chewing on them not eating them...
Sometimes a strange animal, I still love em'
wouldn't be without one...

My Chocolate Lab Elvis plays with socks, I tie into knots & he plays tug of war
& retrieves them, I trained him early on to not destroy them or eat them...

thank god he doesn't ever eat them, knock on wood
