Dogsrawesome

I especially love the second GSD. I cannot offer any help or advice because I cannot draw myself!

When I was browsing the general discussion forum my eyes played trick on me. The topic below was "Bloody BYBs" and I somehow melded the two together so your topic read, "I scanned my bloody drawings :D" And I thought, woah... excited much??

I had to read that twice then but thats to funny

Mostly sighthounds... :D

Chortaj

Azawahk

the right Afghan

the right Silken Windhound (or Windsprite if you're in Czech Rep!)

And just 'cause I adore some of those short legs:

Cardigan Corgi

Pekingese

Nice to see Borzoi getting a few mentions... "I love you too!"

I was one of those people i just think they are stunning although ive never met one

Wow they are awesome!!! wish i had even half the talent that you do

Why thank you

ummmm

German Shepherd

Belgian Tervuren

Smooth Collie

Australian Shepherd

Rottweiler

Tibetan Mastiff

Greyhound

Borzoi

Mini daschund

Pomeranian

Labrador

Flat Coated Retriever

and the list goes on haha

Poor dog those pups would have been huge for her to give birth

Now we can see the properly :D

My uncles stafford i took for a walk once, two toy poodles ran up to him biting him etc and he just stood there in shock didnt know what to do, the owners just stood there and laughed, but i think if i acted out in shock it might have ended differently but i guess we will never know. My friend has a bull breed and it had two maltese x's run up to her and she just rolled over and let them attack her. So in my opinion its how you raise the dog in the end, yes some breeds are harder to bring up than others but i never judge a breed as a whole. Yes my uncles stafford could of easily killed those poodles but the point is he didnt and i have never met an human aggressive stafford and basically the whole male part of my family own them and they have kids and have no problem with them all are great with the kids.

Oh I might ad, this incident had a profound affect on my girl Maddie, who now has a fear of all other breeds, I'll never win anything in group with her because of it. And I don't know how to get her out of the mindset that other breeds are dangerous.

This behaviour might be reflected from your feelings? If you are always on edge when you go out of course they will pick up on it.

LOL I hear what you are saying.. when I had jake (pitbull) people would meet him with trepidation as he was a bit battered looking and after being on teh receiving end of some serious bully loving and attention would say something along the lines of " what a gorgeous dog.. are you sure he is a pitbull?" me yep. then "oh well he obviously is not one of those who fight " in reality jake spent the first 6 years of his life being fought by his miserable owner.

When exhibiting my sheep and their maremmas people would often remark that the dogs could not possibly be maremmas... as they were too calm and too big!!!!! sigh...

H

People needing to understanding that a good Pitbull needs to have the trait of social aggression in the genes and without social aggression you cannot train a fighting dog to do the job. If a good Pitbull come to the hands of people who cant handle the social aggression and train him for nice behavior then danger from this dog can be easily happening and we cant rely on people breeding the Pitbull with no social aggression in the trait otherwise is like Amstaff. So if someone breeding proper Pitbull with the proper trait and ending up on the wrong owners is why they ban the dog when anyone can get him easily.

People saying the Pitbull has breeding for no human aggression is the same for German Shepherd Dog, but the trait of social aggression in the genes of both this dogs if handled and training incorrect dogs can bite acting from the trait. Social aggression is only bad trait when owners of dogs like this dont train them properly and when trait come out dominant and uncontrolled is what making dangerous dogs who will bite.

well said

Actually that wasn't well said. Not only is it a load of rubbish, but it is also really hard to read the way it is written. FYI Joe Pitbull's are no longer bred for fighting or aggression these days (not by responsible breeders anyways only by the dogmen). Also Amstaff's are Pitbulls many Purebred APBT in the States are dual registered as American Staffordshire Terriers as well.

actually that quote is a load of excrement.. a myth perperated by the ignorant.,

try getting innformation from those who are knowledgable about dogs, training and the pitbull. Diane Jessup is an acknowledged pitbull 'expert' and her site give a warts and all opinion. I have immense respect for her. I also have had the joy of sharing part of my lifes journey with Jake.. a pitbull rescued from fighting. Jake stole my heart then shattered it into a million pieces 6 years later when he died....

No pitbull are not for every dog owner, just as livestock guardian breeds are bot suitable for all dog owners,

In memory of Jake

Now that was well said. Thank you Helen. Jake was absolutely gorgeous what a stunner. They certainly have a way of stealing a chunk of your heart.

x2 i would love a pit bull one day after i own a few different breeds though so im more dog savvy, i dont think they would be good dogs for first time owners. But i love them non the less

What a rude man would it be possible to contact the council?

I want to get a paw print with my dogs name underneath it, then i worry that id have to do it with all the dogs i own in the future

We visited the new pet supplies store at Glendale today - PETQuarters. It has recently opened, and doesn't sell live animals (except a few fish) but does have visits from rescue kittens (not sure about pups at this stage) which are offered for adoption via a rescue organisation (and which still live with their foster carer). The kittens there today were very relaxed and content, and the staff were never far away if anyone was near their cage so there wasn't really the opportunity for anyone to annoy the kitties. If there is any interest in adoption, customers must go through the rescue organisation so there are no impulse buys with anyone walking out of the shop with a cute kitten under their arm.

During our visit I eavesdropped on the staff talking with customers, and was impressed by all I heard. People were encouraged to seek out rescue animals (including small animals such as ferrets & bunnies) and there were brochures/flyers placed around the store for rescue/desexing services.

Thumbs up from me.

Good to hear a simalar pet shop on the gold coast they have rescue cats and kittens in that one and you also have to go through the rescue. It has a no touching sign on the cage aswell . Great to know some pet shops are starting this

Beautiful, you are really getting better at the shading, looks lovely.

confidence goes up everytime

I've already told you what I think but I'll say it again.

Beautiful. The emotion you saw in their eyes is just incredible. OH and I always said that Max has sad eyes but Jenna has hopeful eyes and you portrayed that so so well!!!

Thank you again means so much more now that i know you like it

I think the look more GSD ;)

I really did try and get a decent photo i think i need to invest in a scanner

You can get these in a few doggy designs from Etsy, they are not cheap but with the Aussie dollar as it is they don't work out too bad.

Black and white duvet

Thanks

My son has this one by Hiccups:
