Nice looking dogs everybody.
Razor what breed are your dogs?
I think I'm fixin to get a new lab. I looking for a yellow male to take my old dogs place in the duck blind. I always like to have a name picked before I get a new dog but I'm having a hard time coming up with a unique name. Any suggestions?

Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers.

I try to avoid the really overused names. Sometimes it helps to see what the dog's personality is like first. Or if your breeder has a theme for AKC registration names, that can sometimes help you come up with a good call name.
-
You may be right on naming for personality. I had a hard time coming up with a name for my oldest lab so I named him Conway, after the city I bought him in.

Well, you could always call this one Twitty. :D

Lol that's a good one. I always try to pick a name you don't mind hollering when hunting with your friends.

My boss just got a Lab/Golden mix that he calls Roscoe.

Yeah my cousin named his dog Ethel. I think he did it so he could yell Ethel you shameless hussy like in the Ray Stevens song the streak.

I was just shooting the breeze with an old high school friend tonight and he brought up The Streak! Two references to that old seventies song in one night!

I don't have a dog, I'd love one but I don't have the commitment to get up before work to walk, plus I worry about the dog being at home all day when I'm out. If I won the lottery I would have a housefull!
I do have two cats tho Ella and Archie.

My family has had dogs for a long time. Our last dog died at an old age a number of years ago. Now we house sit dogs for people and we can get our dog fix in short stints.
I'll have to look up some photos. We have one dog coming for Thanksgiving and another for Christmas.
Dena and Dixie in that order. Photos to follow.

Here's my beautiful boy :) I love him more than my fiance, just don't tell her that! :)

This is Snoopy, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He is a great family pet. He thinks he's a bird dog, so I just let him believe that...haha.
We got him from a breeder in South Dakota. They had already name him and it seemed to fit. He has a longer snout than his breed is supposed to have (due to a big over-bite). He was the runt of the litter and we wouldn't have it any other way.

I have always wanted a Rhodesian Ridgeback. The neighbor across the street from me growing up had one that was like the neighborhood dog. He was the coolest dog.

Haha. that's the truth! The Cavalier was the first dog I was ever able to talk the wife into.
Razor, my neighbor has a dog like yours (Wheaton Terrier). About a year ago, they were rushing her to an emergency vet... she was all bloody. She had gotten in a fight with a huge Water Moccasin (Cotton Mouth) in their back yard. What they found out at the vet was that she didn't have any marks from the snake... all the blood was from the snake, not her. She was pretty impressive, killing that snake.
I was laughing at that video of yours btw. --pretty funny.

All gorgeous dogs guys!!
I'm a dog guy... love them. I did greyhound rescue for nine years but gave that up about 6 years or so again when my kids started getting involved in everything and time became a premium. I had greyhounds for years. They are fabulous dogs.
We now have two Shih-Tzus and a Boston Terrier. We opted for small dogs because they are much easier to take aloing on Family events.
The Shih-Tzus, Quincy and Ryleigh, are great little dogs. They love everyone and are pretty tough little dogs.
The Boston, Cooper, was the runt of the littler and is still pretty small for a Boston. He's the funniest damn dog I've ever been around. He's curious as can be but he's afraid of his own shadow. So he'll go to investigate something and then get scared and yelp and run. We laugh like crazy at him. Great dog and tough as nails. He LOVES kids and people in general. He is one heck of a lap dog too.
Ages..... Quincy-7, Rylerigh and Cooper both 6.
Once these guys eventually leave us (which will apparently be a VERY long time) we're going back to ONE big dog.

What a lovely pair of cats there, Slyest. Awwww.

I have only ever had Labradors. Great dogs. At the present time I have a seven year old black named Bailey.

Cat's are cool....we have two cats as well....love how they take care of themselves....no walking...fill up the bowl with food and they can pace themselves through several days worth,.

I was thinking of getting a dog recently but then I saw a UK TV show about what dogs do when the owners are out and it changed my mind, these dogs were really distressed during the day, my cats don't give a s**t and start the day shift on my bed!
-
Would love to have a dog, but don't have have a pen / cage and the house is too close to the road. Hate the thought of leaving on penned up. Did have a dog try to adopt me a couple of years ago. I gave it to a neighbor who has a fenced in one acre yard and two other dogs. He's very happy, can run without worry of the road, and has playmates.

Ridgebacks are cool....had a friend who had two of them

YEP!!! Mine is a BIG BABY but has a HUMONGOUS DEEP BARK that sounds much bigger than he is when someone's at the door.

Slyest and Billy boy.....yeah...we've always had dogs that were crate (kennel) trained....completely eliminates torn up houses and runaway issues. When home you walk them and play with them....give'm their exercise and all that....and enjoy their company around the house....just say "KENNEL!" and they run into their kennel when ya leave. Much better.
-
When I did Greyhound Rescue I learned all about crates and the proper way to use them. Fewer people would get rid of their pooches if they knew how to properly use a crate.
My (3) current pups love their crates. They lay in them even when the doors are open and they have the run of the house.
All I have to say is "In!" and they all run into their crates wagging their tales.

We had a couple for Golden Retrievers. The first one, Bailey, was a pure bred and lasted about 16 years. The second one was a rescue dog and only lasted about 8 years. She developed lymes disease from the deer ticks up at our cabin. I miss them both a lot.
My son now has a black lab, St. Bernard and dobbermine combo She is a big girl and has a lot of energy. I am about to take her over to the dog park to wear her down a bit.
We also have 2 cats. a 17 year old Tabby named Bob and a 3 year old black cat named bubbles. Needless to say, they make life interesting.

Yes, We really didn't have it waiting for them in a stocking though. We woke my older daughter up with it, then all took it into my son's room and woke him with it. (We didn't know we would have a little surprise off our own a year later (another daughter) or we may not have gotten the dog. I'm glad it worked out the way it did...lol.

He's a good looking little fella! I didn't think you would get one so quickly. How old is he?
-
Great looking pup, Country! Looks like you are training him to duck hunt already...lol.
-
He's 7 weeks. I think it is turning out to be my sons dog more than mine. It might be harder to train but the new will wear of pretty soon I hope.

Some lovely pics!
