Webster loves these rings! they are called - JW Pet Invincible Chains Dog Toys & I bought them at petsmart. He loves to run with these in his mouth, fetch them and play tug of war.

mit

that's funny. I saw the post & thought you were 'going Norwegian'

Actually the Norwegian word is uffda. I got a chuckle out of it anyway.

mit

this isn't the right aspect ratio but here's two of my favorite winter pictures of my boy:

mit

I just think it's great that you've been smitten by a gsp

mit

I went for a hike with Webster this past weekend & when we got back to the car I pulled over 20 deer ticks off of him!

mit

Here's a link to a website that sells natural protection http://search.onlynaturalpet.com/search.aspx?searchterms=flea-and-tick-powder-for-cats-or-dogs the first product in the list is the diatomeceous earth, it says it's for fleas but it also works for ticks. Read what it says about the product. Go...

mit

GSPVIZ, The ticks seem to migrate to the head. Now is especially a bad time for deer ticks here in the east. Good point about your wife being pregnant. Hopefully your dog has had a lymes shot. I remember hearing about a powder made with diatimatious earth that people use for fleas & ticks. I'll see ...

mit

Congratulations, I can't wait to see some pics. Those will be 8 long weeks for your kids! We brought Webster home around Thanksgiving. I clearly remember taking him outside in the middle of the night with snow on the ground.
I think the name Rusty is cute - and apropriate.

mit

I'll say, that's why i wondered if that was the reason your viz was shaking, no chance of growing a thicker coat

mit

EddieF,
I am just a hobbyist but I love photography. I own a Canon 20D but have a lot to learn!

mit

GSPVIZ,
I'm sorry to say we do not hunt Webster. I grew up in Minnesota hunting pheasants but when we moved out east I never hunted agin, I don't even own a gun. Webster & I are starting agility.

mit

why thank you both.

mit

it has gotten cold real fast here on the east. I know my gsp doesn't have any sign of his coat getting any thicker on his belly yet. Maybe it's because it went from being relatively warm to windy & cold within a matter of days.

mit

I definitely use year round. The deer ticks are so prevalent here in PA I figure for a few bucks a month why take a chance. Plus if your dog comes in contact with another dog that has fleas then you got fleas.

mit

oops, sorry posted in the wrong spot!

Way to go Annie. I will keep her in my prayers she heals quickly & is back in the fields soon.

mit

Boy this thread got me reminising! When i was about 5 I used to walk the corn fields near Windom MN with my father & uncles who were pheasant hunting. When I was about 9 my father gave me a 22 rifle that belonged to my mom. I don't think I ever hit much with it but tin cans, still it was a lot of fu...

mit

definitely, after a long day running around he will lay on the deck in the sun and doze.

mit

topher
i'm am glad you are all safe & didn't experience any damage. Thanks for posting the pictures.

mit

I don't have any wise tips on fishing but boy am I jealous. I was born & raised in Mn & miss the lakes & fishing. Don't miss the mosquitos much. Went canoeing in the boundary waters for the first time when I was about 15. It's a trip I will never forget. Two years ago I was back for a family reunion...

mit

awwww, what a nice looking litter of pups!

mit

When Webster does that in a pet store I always tell him it's not polite to point

mit

I'm glad to hear Zip is on the mend. That must have been so scarey. We feel so helpless when our four legged friends are in pain. Here's a lot of Mojo going out to Zip!

mit

I too have an invisible fence & it works like a charm. I even put it around the perimeter of my gardens to stop the digging in my flower beds.
gar-dog, you cracked me up!

mit

I've also bought from them & have had a positive experience! I would definitely recommend them

mit

Everyone has 'the best dog in the world'. we love our dogs, we love our breeds but I also love all dogs.

I just think there are a lot of narrow minded people in the world & nothing you can say will change their mind.

mit

I'd have to say Anticipation is my favorite

mit

What information would you recommend i put on my dogs tag on the collar? He's microchipped but I also want to put some info on the tag.

mit

Either getting keys out of the drawer in hope of going somewhere, actually anywhere, or opening the deli drawer in the refriderator in hope of getting cheese will get my guy bounding toward me.

mit

A dog is truly a man's best friend.

If you don't believe it, just try this experiment.

Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of the car for an hour.

When you open the trunk, who is really happy to see you!

mit

here's a photo (my avatar) I played with in photoshop

mit

We pulled the first ticks off of Webster last week. It's going to be a bad tick season in the east. I'm glad I apply frontline plus all year long. I hate the little suckers. Luckly its faily easy to spot them on the gsps.

mit

wow, that's some story, it brought tears to my eyes I'm glad everyone is ok.

mit

On days that I know I don't have time to run him Webster goes to a doggie daycare otherwise he's at home.

mit

I watched the whole darn thing & fell asleep 15 minutes before the end.
Webster was asleep way before that.
I agree it seemed to be more than a coincidence that the dog they hyped won best of show.

mit

Margaret,
thanks for the compliment on the headshot of Webster. It's one of my favorite pictures of him.

mit

pucksmith,
I can't give you a temperature but when gsps get cold they will shiver. I wasn't sure I would be able to tell the difference between shivering & the shaking they do when they're excited but when Webster got cold once I could definetely tell the difference!

mit

dear White Dog'
I'm so sorry the news wasn't better. I will keep Willow & you & your family in my prayers.

mit

Gee, Cora's Shadow, I wouldn't have known what kind of dog you had. I've never seen a GLP in person. Thanks for the post.

mit

Great pictures. Nice looking family & dog!

mit

that's not an e-collar that's a 'hearing aid'

mit

nice looking pup. they're so dang cute, seeing puppy pictures always makes me want another. But then I start to remember...

mit

thanks for posting this. I'm going to pass it on to some collegues at work

mit

signed & will pass it along!

mit

that is FUNNY! It's so funny I'm going to pass it around the office. I'm glady you can laugh at yourself. Thanks for the laugh.

mit

I think it's sad that some over paid athletes can't keep their noses clean.
Kids look up to the big name athletes.
I'll stick to rugby! Big men in little shorts - what's not to like

mit

This exercise routine works for me: EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 50 Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minu...

Webster

Congratulations, what a handsome pup! Lots of luck with him.
