Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Pond Boss Pets (non-pond)

I thought a good way to get to "know" people might be to see pics or hear stories about their pets.

I'll start of with my dog Flop Ear Dog.

He just showed up at the property one day while Cindy's house was going up. He never left. We're out in the country so I guess somebody abandoned him. He was about 6 months old then.

He's very smart and loves everybody except coyotes.

This is my dog Roscoe,he is 2 years old and loves water. This dog is always in or hanging around the pond.Full of energy



He loves to fish to.

Very Rare Moment

2 of my 3 dogs have been missing now for over 2 weeks, I have searched all hours of the day, even when I should be working. I have become familiar with the local animal control officers and they know what to look for, they sofar with last sightings have traveled about 8 miles as the crow flys. It has been really stressful for the family and the remaining dog wasnt eating and would howl at night down by where the dogs went under the fence, This could have been prevented if only I would have had their collars on with my information on them but I have been laxs since they never showed any signs of getting out. We just last night adopted another yellow lab for the lab we have, she wasnt having anything to do with the new dog but they are starting to warm up to each other. Here is a shot of the 3 amigos By the way H20fowlkiller keep a eye out the were last seen heading south probably crossed 50 hiway by now

I'm sorry to hear about your dogs trailsguy.

I'll be rooting for them.

Those are some purdy dogs n_w_w.

Now look at this thing!

The great thing about America is that, if you want to, you can take a rat to the beauty parlor.

Here are my two dogs, Shorty is the older one in front and smaller one is the new pup (Powder) from last fall, both are german shorthairs. Note, the Powder pup is now bigger than the Short stuff.

Powder looks ready to hit the grass. One of my hunting buddies always says this about pheasants: I don't know what they smell like, but they must smell good!

I would not call that a rat Theo.


I think it's a mouse. A sickly little mouse.

Labs and ponds go together like peas and carrots.


The only problem is they get pretty muddy in the pond so when we built the new house we made them a room that they can dry off in.

They are never allowed on the furniture


My wife has two cats, notice I said my wife.

One showed it's appreciation this spring before I put the screens in the windows


My Yellow lab lives to fish, much like me would rather fish than eat. She can hear a fishing pole being moved through two insulated walls and just go berserk. My chocolate lab loves chasing frogs but could care less about fishing. Out of hundreds of attempts I have only seen him catch 1 toad.

I used to have a cat that would bring dead rats into the house (we had a cat door) and place them inside my shoe.

Shadow joined our family about a year ago - we adopted him from the local animal control shelter. He is the perfect dog for us - he loves the water!!

We also have 2 cats, 6 birds, 2 snakes, a bearded dragon, numberous tanks - fresh and saltwater, two mice and a hamster. Oh yea and 2 turtles.
Did I mention the two kids and husband?

Sue, you're the perfect candidate for BSF .

edit: That's still about pets, right?

Sue your house must be complete bedlam with that many objects in motion. How do you find time to think much less work ? BTW nice water color and dependants.


Here is one of ours - Lucky dog - picked up in the woods as a tick infested , half starved 4 mth old. - now at 4 a 100 lbs of energy.

This is my boxer Gage and lab Sadie. They love the water which was a mess during the construction phase since thay are inside dogs.

This is Dexter. We got him from the SPCA shelter. This picture was from when we were cleaning some trout that we caught. He has eaten some bluegill whole and loves to ride in the boat when we go out to the lake. I will try to get a video of him chasing a fishing lure in my pool.

I have a Rhodesian Ridge Back dog. They were bred to hunt lions in Africa. We haven't seen a lion in the neighborhood in years.

PS
I have a lot of fish, I think.

My dog basically looks exactly the same as ewest's dog.

He's at least a second generation mutt, but I'd swear he has some Rhodesian Ridge Back in him.

While he doesn't have the line of hair going opposite the rest, he loves to sit on people. Frequently, he puts his butt on the couch and sits there like a person would. (EDIT: With three or four feet on the floor)

Theo, I guess we should be careful what we say about you-know-who. He has recruited thugs.



Just back away slowly....

This is our 13 yr old Rott. Her name is Nicki. She don't get to go to the Pond because she thinks she should be able to eat the goats and donkey in the field.The other Pic is my 1 yr old American Bulldog. His name is the all American name BOB. Now have not yet took him to pond because not sure if he will want to eat goats.Now Bob has a face that only a mother could love.When you look you'll know what i mean

GW, that thing in the middle had better be a stuffed animal.

Actually, I have to break a confidence, ahvatsa raises (and loves) those hairless dogs as a side interest (sorry Al!).

Ok Sue told me I should post a picture of my dog here as well!

Here's Veeky... a year old in next september!

Thought I'd share that one of the cat near the pond... and that snapper laying eggs... last week!
