He gets dreadlocky. Then he starts pulling out the dreads and pooping them. It's as bad as if he ate fiber fill.Kay, it's winter, if you stopped trimming his fur, he'd have a natural sweater...

Up here that's what is known as a Hudson's Bay blanket, originally manufactured and sold/traded by the Hudson's Bay Company, when they were fur traders starting in the 1700's

And they both look like they know their lives are about to change for the better!
We just lost our old guy yesterday. Still have his "little sister", so it's not as bad as it could be.

When we put our chocolate lab Hannah down I couldn’t hold it together at the vets, I’m sure it will be the same or worse when our 3 year old black lab Daisy’s time comes. That’s why i throw that ball for her everyday

Sorry for your loss, pets are amazing creatures and losing one of them is very much like losing a family member.

Worse.
They can be. Depends on both the pet and family member. And the circumstances of death.

The absolute worst days of my life have been when I've had to hold one of my babies, tell them how good they are, and watch them fly away. I miss them more than any family member or friend I've ever lost. That isn't saying less about family and friends, as much as it's saying more about my fur family. They are always there for you, with love, and joy, no matter what.

He’s a 3 year old mini golden boy with a short hair cut. He’s the best dog ever! Not afraid of anything. I can fire up my drag truck in my shop and he never flinches. He just heads for the truck because he loves to go for truck rides! I can shoot or beat on some steel with a hammer and it doesn’t bother him one bit. He is the most gentle loving dog I’ve ever seen. But when the Amazon or UPS man comes down our long lane, he barks with such authority! But once they stop, he is ready to fly into the delivery truck for a dog treat!
Nice dog. One look at that front yard and I knew it was AZ. Lived there for 15 years.Meet Charlie. Rescue, 2+ years old, Heinz 57.

The Jilly is the Aussiedoodle, Betty is a Borderdoodle
He's my buddy, his name is Links. His 1 year gotcha day was earlier this month. I had him brought up to me in PA from down South. He was left tied to a Chain Link Fence in Arkansas and was poked with sticks and beat. That's where the name Links came from. He has been a great dog, definitely a protector and doesn't let me or the kids out of his site. He has some separation anxiety still because he hates if I have to leave the house without him.

Thank you for saving Links, what is wrong with people to want to hurt and torture a great pup like that....He's my buddy, his name is Links. His 1 year gotcha day was earlier this month.

Since they are both half herding dog breed, I bet they run around a lot trying to chase stuff. My two Aussies will try to herd anything that moves around my property. It can be a problem with the Amazon & UPS vehicles.
Yep, some people are assholes. Because of his breed, he was in a high kill shelter and didn't have much time left. He can be a knucklehead when he wants to be, especially this time of year when it's cold and swampy so we can't get out more. I bought a bar that connects to the seat post on my bicycle and connects to his harness. I can't keep up with him when he wants to run, so that's how I do it. He pretty much pulls me along on the bike unless I'm going up hill. He only weighs 45lbs, but is really strong.

Mine spent more time outside in the below freezing temperatures last week than they've spent outside in the 70f temps this week.
The 9mo pup hit 88lbs on last weight in. He's trying to exert dominance over the 3yo... It's not working.

All I need is an excuse... This was Trooper. Shepard/Bloodhound mix. Was found dumped and dying in the Everglades. Weighed 60 lbs. His normal weight was 110 lbs. Lived to be 16 and still going strong until a brain tumor got him. He's been gone 3 or 4 years and I still can't shake him.
This is our newest rescue. Had him about 6 months. When we got him, his name was... Trooper
My wife and her friend took the T and moved it to the end. So now he's Roopert. He likes me fine but this is where he wants to be all the time.

We had a smooth coat border collie mix & an aussie mix. They frequently tried to herd each other. Running next to each other nipping alongside each others mouths.
I imagine their conversation was something like "You're the sheep". "No, you're the sheep".
The bulldog mix would sit in the middle, watching them run from end to end & back again repeatedly, with her head turning back & forth as if she were watching a tennis match.

They live a dog’s best life living in a mountainous forest with miles of hiking every day, no collars or leashes. They are not “outdoor” dogs, so there is much less concern about incidents with wildlife. Our deck has no direct stair access, and the dogs spend much outside time watching the wildlife. Its right-sized for their energy requirements.
