Doggies, Doggos and Doggeroos!

This thread needs more big dogs

My wife (pictured) plays special needs hockey (it allows people with physical and other disabilities to play) and at a recent event, the team founder had his Newfoundlander with him.

Her name is Rosie but she can be a bit destructive so she's also known as Monster.

Nice. I always wanted to have such a dog when I'm a seasoned dog owner...more than I am now...perhaps after a couple more under my belt. Perhaps a Great Pyrenees if I'm still in Austin as Newfoundlanders are often dark colored. Finn has been gone for nearly three months. I miss him a lot but I'd love a beagle again someday. I saw a couple today and it made me think of him...but whatever. Beautiful dog. Awesome sport.

There's a Great Pyrenees that I've seen around the city a few times - it's big, white and very fluffy and gets lets of attention wherever it goes.

A new worker was in doing supports for my wife on Monday and she's got a Newfoundlander but her is dark, Comment was that Rosie is the first light one she's ever seen.

Hubs coworker has a Pyrenees. He’s super chill but doesn’t let anyone around his chickens and the family peacock. Protecting Those birbs are his duty!

Sis in law had a Newfie. What a mountain of LOVE. They don’t live long though, he made it to 11 and I believe that is considered long for the big guys

Yeah, the larger the breed, the shorter their lives. Tends to be the same with people, too. Those with giantism die far too soon; their hearts just can't take it.

That is heartbreaking about people and dogs.

I know.

Reminds me a little of my cat.

 

[Redfern]

I can't look at a Corgi without thinking of "Ein" from "CowBoy BeBop", particularly when he "tripped" on "shrooms"!

It’s literally 79° in the house and this dog still manages to drag his bed to a space heater.

He sends tiny licks your way.

I would probably make sure that cord was wrapped up so the doggie bed couldn't be sitting on it.

Better?

The reason I didn't do that to begin with was Fred's eyes said it all, already.

Lovely dogs - a cousin of the wife breeds them in Ottawa and have produced a few champion dogs.

One trait of the breed is they love to lean up against people.
