Absolutely!

Avatar pics are so stressful - it's your trademark, your first impression, your "kachow!". So difficult to choose, I mean what are the rules??? What's the criteria? Other than, of course, not using a pic of your dog pointing a planter I think the options are pretty limitless!!

Introspective, quizzical option - who is this guy? where's he headed? where's he been? does he have anything meaningful to say or just telling me the obvious how to get to the other side of the river??:


Tout your bizness??:


The "I've got more than one hobby" option:


Align yourself with a major car manufacturer - either immediately alienates yourself or suddenly have yourself a bunch of new drinking buddies??:


Hard to go wrong with a landscape...other than you can't tell what it is at the resolution of a postage stamp:


Give the impression your right there with the person reading your post:


A nature pic??:


Sunsets are good...but cliche' - might just make you part of the herd:


Horses are good...people love horses...I go with horses:

Cracking pics lads.

Am throwing my hat in the ring

Dave.

DG you have some great pictures, I really enjoyed them.

Dang it! what is with all the pointers and GSPS?

Thanks, I'm really blown away with the compliments on my avatar . The funny thing is that I always thought that his weakness/hole/flaw is his lack of style/horrible tailset .

I have been trying to tell you. IMO, he has style and his tail carriage is fine! I actually like it better than the poker straight 12:00 tail. I have nothing against a 12:00 tail, but Chopper's just looks more natural to me. I am just happy to see that I am not alone. I think it has something to do with the era I grew up in.

Charlie

Couldn't agree morew about the tail carriage. That is a perfectly natural look that gives the dog balance.

I loved mcbosco's old avatar as well.

Well thanks

No problem - we "fuzzy guys" need to stick together!

JakeDD has my vote...but I'm partial to the Ugly Dogs

Used to be a gal had a dogh jumping into the water, that was the kewlest avatar IMHO. Somone from fruitport? or something like that?

Anyone recognize this guy

Isnt he "Ticked Off"?

I added an avatar of my newest addition. he will be a guest for many dinners to come as soon as he is old enough

No, he is the GDF dog..FC Gambles Scat Man

Pedigreed pure bred, gentle as a lamb, eating creep feed and grass, has a long tail cant tell from that angle

Moose had the avatar I was thinking of. Not the one now. I take my dogs to the lake a lot, they love to play get the ball.

I love it. I still like the way your avatar looks too, a nice dog there.

I see him on your web site, thought it was ticked off they kinda look close coat wise there. I love the ticked look.

Markj the Avatar (Star) is that water pups mother!!

I want to know also

lets see this pup/water picture

Markj the Avatar (Star) is that water pups mother!!

You done good there, but why didnt the other dog jump in? he kinda just got wet is all. She hit the water fast and hard. I like it. Taking my pup out on the boat to a lake soon. Kinda limited here as far as water sports goes with all tthe flooding.

Like these are, pure bred meat makers got more coming as soon as they are weaned and eating grass.

I don't know anything about the other dog.That young man was seriously injured in an accident & Bella the pup was a present to him from his parents & has helped tremendously with his recovery.

One of my favorites

Yer my hero Ted, that was a fine thing to do. I am not the only one that does that it seems. Last litter I gave a older guy, a vet, a pup, he is now in a wheel chair and that dog is his only companion. they take real good care of each other.

A dog can do wonders for a person, just petting one takes my stress away.

Does Chip kinda resemble my Avatar Star??

........one more I like, just happened to be brothers from earlier post!

Mark maybe not that much of a hero they bought the pup from my trainer as he whelped & sold this litter.I never knew any of this untill the young man's mother told me about it.But it still makes me feel good they have built a very close bond.

Now you're my hero as well for being so honest .

Ted, you can sure see some resemblence......their daddy's stamp!

That's Beth, Moose1.

Are there no dogs with tails on this form
I have used both of these as Avatars

Very nice!!

Charlie

did anyone else notice the size of the squirrel in Dave C's avatar? Someone will need to breed in pit bull into the squirrel dog line.

Nice setters, my Grandpa had them dogs way way back. He wouldnt put them in a field with the springers my Dad and Uncle had said flushers and pointers dont mix.

IMO, there are too many to pick that are really good. Besides, everyone is going to pick according to their breed preferences. So, I like them all. I especially like puppy Avavtars as they are so darn cute!

Ol' Doc Favor has got some pretty good lookin hounds......and he knows how to work that camera as well!!!!!

i really want to vote for myself but i guess i should first get an avatar

I think this is the best picture of all.

Kall it Action has quite the intimidating Avatar!

Woo Hoo another Italian on the board!!!!

My 3 favorites I have seen are:
1) Ultracarry
2) Ron R
3) Kall It Action (That picture is crazy! Can you post the full picture?)

Lots of others that are really cool though.

Lincoln that is one of the nicest tails I have seen on a weim. Yea actually the nicest. You don't see many that hold a point like that.

BTW thanks for the complement ... she was under a year old in that pic.

Some pics from my avatar collection.. I think I should update them with pics of her without the collar...

Thanks I really like him.

Its pretty tough to keep a pointing dog steady if another dog is going in and flushing them. I am sure that it can be done, but it has to be a lot of work.

Ultra, That is one great picture!! I noticed that Magnum's Touch of Gold is the grandsire. He is my avatar dog's sire. So I guess we are related.
