she's recovering quicker than i thought she would, still sore but slowly getting more active. i had heard a lot of horror stories from the surgery from various vets.

she's a tuff little nugget, and a spoilt one at that (all dogs in my family are treated like human kids).

she's gorgeous!!! love your poodle too!

AAwww your little guy is so sooo cute!

Yep, Vicky is a harlequin.
We got her when she was about 7, she needed a home. She will be 9 in December which is very old for a dane.
Vet says she is in great nick and should have no problems living until she is 10.
My dane in my profile, Lucy, is Vicky's half sister..they have the same father. Even though we lost Lucy ( I cried for weeks) we still have part of her.

That dog is stunning. I can't get over it.

Fay, how much does it cost to feed that Shetland of yours?

That's a shame I've heard that all dogs, regardless of size have a comparable heart size, which is why large breeds don't live as long. Is this why?

My missus owns the Brindle one( mini aussie bulldog) and i own the white one (American bulldog) people love walking past the house to see the little one trying to scare them away

KR,
I think things like joint problems and pressure on their insides (I guess the heart is part of that) is another reason why larger dogs don't live as long.

probably the one thing I don't like about only ever wanting/owning big dogs :\

Hey guys i thought i'd pop up a few more first is Halli and brooklyn as a pup next is the closest Sammie and i could get to a family photo, 3rd is one of the runt from her litter smallest but biggest personality and bravest so far. the last two are of Halli

I want the blonde one Brett!

Funny how people used to cross the road to get out of his way, then others would cross the road to get in his face,..which he loved.

awww!
I remember someones bull mastiff the same colour as him got off its leash once and ran over to Bill and I...was like woahhhhh dude you're a huge bugger :|

just think, no one will ever break into your yard

Here are mine. We have the bark (fluffdog) and the bite (rottie). The little bloke is the boss!

What's that noise?

our pooch a couple of weeks ago when we went out to our property....she loves it out there - plenty of room to run, a big muddy puddle (a poor dam) for her to swim in, roos for her to bark at, a bbq hotplate for her to lick after dinner, a fire place to keep her warm , mice to chase...a dogs heaven!

Here are my 2 babies
Jess - Border Collie X Kelpie



And Pepper - Dalmatian

it's amazinnnng how different Dalmatians all look...
I say this because I know of course there's variation within a breed,
but they always seem to have completely different head and body shapes!
