Breedia Dog Forum
:shock: What an awful situation. I hope the people who tortured the dog in the name of training can be named and shamed? The dog needs to go back...
I`m surprised they`re neutered but not chipped. Is chipping not `normal` over there? :? BTW bless you for the great work you do. :grin:
Hurray for the Fluffies! Have you noticed how the fur soaks up water like a mop? :lol: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Do they Point though? I thought an HPR had to point? :?
I`ll have a Springer and a Spinone please. That`ll do - I`m not greedy. (but I`m keeping my GSP) (and I`ll happily take a Large Munsterlander as...
I don`t understand what people want from this cross. Aren`t there loads of small hairy breeds already without putting two such different sized dogs...
oh yes... Or you`ll give your dog whiplash at the very least. :grin: A Halti or any other headcollar should be used with a double ended lead and a...
My first GSD (got her in 1972) was typical of her time: I don`t have good photos though- [IMG] [IMG] I`m not sure she was that different to the...
I find GSPs are one-person dogs like my GSDs. They are calm around people but bond strongly to their handler. They tend to ignore other dogs ( and...
I`m on to my second GSP. Both have been good house dogs - firm but not aggressive. They are strong willed dogs who are driven by their inbred traits....
Which I find odd as one of the founding dogs of the breed was white. The excuse I have heard is that they look too much like the sheep they are...
if you breed a cocker spaniel with a poodle do you get a cock-a-doodle do?
You could have the same discussion about Beagles or Afghan Hounds. Some dogs have been bred to be biddable (gundogs) some to protect (guard breeds)...
You are right - your friend would probably struggle with a Husky. However, please also tell her that poodle crosses may well moult - half of them...
I think you know your own circumstances best. None of us know what the future will bring. If you can offer a dog a good home, go for it. :grin:
Thank heaven for people like you. Sadly, as your OH says - there are always more waiting for a chance.
You have a gundog whose whole being is driven to work - to hunt, scent, point etc. She will never be satisfied with a lead walk. You could do a...
Do you train or work her at all? GSPs need to use their drives in some way. And yes, they do scream when excited.
I met a bloke with a wolf in our local park once. I didn`t have the heart to tell him he had an underweight GSD cross.....
I have no idea what you`re angry about because I haven`t seen said thread, but having read your first post I just wondered..... why don`t you post...
