Perhaps you need to tempt him in with some music - apparently classical music can reduce a dog's anxiety levels and lower blood pressure (his and yours!) as they find the melody very soothing.

BUT...if you want to something for Xan before he go goes....then what about this:

 

[dionysus]

Mother effer, bleeding everywhere lol
Because of the storm, no doggo walkies today.
So, buddy, decides, for wuvvin' not just, like normal, gets pats and belly rubs, hops up, onto my lap.

Damn. Thought it was snaggle tooth that would have enabled him to double as a bottle opener....

 

[dionysus]

the little piget; a bit of slush money so got the dogs bones and toys today
Xan swiped Kal's bone and trying to figure how to eat both at once
(it's ok, while he was sucking marrow, she went around and stole all his new toys )

 

[dionysus]

I love him, I really, really do <3

And a good damned thing I do


He stopped on a dime, snapped my body back the big bastich, and I didnt much fuss and worry


Now? A few hours later. Heh, i've had enough to know. I've another cracked rib and another 3 weeks out of commission. Can't barely breathe.
Caaaaaaaaant be mean, he's.......strong and big, and meant no harm. But....FML lol

Looks like he's watching you get your hopes up again over another +5 +5 bonanza bonus.

Recently got a border collie. Had a bitch before which was absolutely as good as gold, so wasn't prepared for how crazy the male version is.
in the 4 months since I've had him (he is about 8 months old now) I have come to own almost nothing.

Off the top of my head;

1x bed sheet.
At least 7 socks making sure to leave me 1 of each set.
4 pairs of boxer shorts (gettin windy down there)
Part of the dining room wall paper.
Phone charger.
Beanie hat.
2 dog leads.
1 and a half trainers.
4 jumpers.
approximately 6 tshirts.
Speaker wires.
earphones.
Part of 1 of my jackets.
1 tv control.
At least 4 dvd's.
2 books.


But On the plus side, he is very considerate towards our community. Not only does he refuse to dirty the streets and take a shit outside when we go for a walk, instead insisting to just use our garden, he's more than happy to clean up other dog turds whenever he might come across them.


Am feeling a punt on BOD at 1 line 2p, anyone wanna buy him for a quid?

My first dog when I came out the army was a rescue Border Collie. She ripped up my stair carpet, chewed through my living room door, attacked my living room blinds ripping numerous down.

She moved onto my fridge, got it open and emptied the contents burying them all over the house, found bacon down the sofa, butter in her bed, eggs under a rug, Put a child lock on and within a day she figured out how to still get in.

She was 18 months old when I got her, did some digging and she had come into the rescue after being starved, had been burnt with cigarettes and had to have a small nail removed from her skull - shudder to think what happened to her.

She lived to 16 and died of lymphoma. I wouldn't have changed her for the world but boy did she keep me on my toes.

Enjoy!

I do wonder if the owner who gave me the dog, who had multiple dogs and lives on a farm, kept wacking his head or something when he misbehaved . It doesn't matter who you are, he nearly always bows his head away if you go to pat him, as if he is expecting a slap or something.
He's so well behaved outside with people and other dogs (he literally lies on the floor if withih 100m of another dog, never gets aggressive just wants to play. Same with people outside, when they meet him they say wow he is so well behaved...
Sure, he's adorable...

But he is also a cheeky little twat...

If anyone needs repairs doing, I only charge minimum wage for these DIY selotape repair skills.

FYI, the LARGEST bowl they sell, XXL
it's a sippy cup to him
BUT...stops him snarfing

Buy a washing up bowl! My friend uses one for hers as no bowl was big enough without having to fill it up with water numerous times a day

 

[dionysus]

the big bastich cracked my ribs again - hes not bad, just snapped my arm backward - he wasnt bad, just big Smelled a pee, snapped my arm backwards

Friends, be.....hire a dog walker
I'm, 6'+, weghed myself today, 212....who am I going to hire lol, Momoa lol
He weighrs near me, and all muscle

 

[dionysus]

Never a one size fits all.
Xan, waiting for 12 more pounds of food because hes starving at 150 pounds of muscle
Kitty, ef y'all asleep in her magic carpet
And Kaali, the literal monster under your bed that makes everyone else leap into bed to keep their toes (no pics, of her, I like my toes)

I think.

As for Xan - are you going to be able to afford his food bills?

Perhaps you need a new approach to Xan and his prodigious appetite?

If you like potatoes, you could always sacrifice your appetite (and taste buds) and join him. The results are surely worth it.

all dogs here get scraps - if i eat, they get leftovers, he aint starving, as much as he tells me is


I remember, my vet telling me (this was my retriever)- you can have a fit dog always tells you hes starving, or a very fat dog, always tells you hes starving - you watch his intake

He's lean and muscley, and granted, spoiled on treats

 

[dionysus]

My last bastich, was..pretty heavy - tbf, he had a gimpy paw and walks hurt
This guy, gets hrs of walks and playtime (and, he has a bloody big backyard)

Him, I dont want to make the mistakes of past pets...he gets a well, ok, a bit of free-feeding - but a monitored feed

Sometimes, I wish he were a fat f*ck, i dont have many more ribs he can break,the strong bastich

 

[dionysus]

i dont have many more ribs he can break,the strong bastich

last Wednesday broke my ribs...., worse today

 

[ladyhawke]

My personal opinion is that dogs that size belong in stables...or on Swiss/Italian mountain tops.

Perhaps you should have gone for a smaller wannabe?

 

[dionysus]

I sleep in one small bedroom in a 3 storey townhouse; the guy is beside me , always a foot away from me, has room to roam

the horse aint lacking for space

though, id trade him for a miniature pony..less space, less food

 

[dionysus]

looks, small there, he aint tho

 

[dionysus]

springy day but when you want to lay outside yet it's important you can still see dad too

great, well, now he's broken

 

[dionysus]

She's considered a medium sized dog (as a Karjalankarhukoira, part of the spitz family...think 'akita'...@ternur can translate, it's his national breed) and I've always seen her as medium sized....til....recently

I have to admit when I saw her next to the monster dog, I thought she was a collie

 

[dionysus]

I have to admit when I saw her next to the monster dog, I thought she was a collie

Fair call
They are very nearly identical to border collies...but for just two distinctive traits at a glance (they do have the exact same colourization)
Up ears v down (pointed v flops)
Curled (spitz) tail v down

 

[subway123]

Last year I had to say goodbye to the best girl this world has ever seen. 15 years of pure love. I'm still struggling to live without her but I'm so thankful that she accompanied me for so long.

its heart breaking but she was beautiful

 

[dionysus]

Sad face and broken doggy syndrome
Wants walkies, but daddy is busted like a hammer hitting glass
Sorry buddy, you have a yard and daddy hurts

(he aint deprived, he has a doggy here, toys, food, treats and a yard (door is wide open) , he just wants to play with kids, doggos and neighbours)
He's broken my ribs twice in a year, I walked him every day busted (and through a sprained ankle and hernia) , and did mad heavy lifting yesterday (thought I was better, and proved wrong lol...ow)
He's walked (twice) every day, and daddy needs a day off
I function as much as a chocolate kettle right now.

Still feel guilty

(you've seen the pose, he knows now how to milk it now)

 

[dionysus]

ha
I'm not training the dog, he;s training ME...went back a week...same sad puppers pose for walkies
l'il shit

 

[dionysus]

One yr to the day I picked him out; Puck (1st pic in the thread) passed and I needed a new buddy
Glad the choice I made <3

 

[dionysus]

I tell a fair few friends lost their doggos, and they worry about going through another heart-ache....
Wait, mourn, and get a new doggos.
You can love a new doggo in a brand new way is just as special and meaningful

 

[dionysus]

Tongue-out-Tuesday...though when the ding-dong does it, it looks like he just had a stroke

 

[dionysus]

Anyone that knows me well, or even, really, moderately well..I'm just not an angry person.
A few buttons, sure....bigotry, racism.

So many days, I log into my dog groups (like tonight) , and people toss their pets because they move, find dogs inconvenient. With Saint Bernards, seems, people find them too big and too cumbersome, too expensive.

There are ALWAYS extenuating circumstances, I fully understand that. And it really, does truly hurt some people, to sometimes have to make that choice.
For convenience? Ef off.
I'd live, in a tent, or a lean-to, in the woods, before I'de give up my animals.
Truly, one million dollars, here, now, given to me to give up my pets. No way.

Rant over.


FYI, I'm not in a poor mood. Just, certain things set me off. And pets as disposable possessions is one, is all.

 

[dionysus]

dont much post cat pics
been a long winter and still in the single digits despite spring
reached 8 degrees so the kitty took advantage of some sun
she's an old girl doesnt much like or tolerate cold.....but some sun is some sun (I feel ya kitty, I feel ya)

 

[dionysus]

+16, warmest spring day here, so sat out front, first day he came out front this year.
Neighbourhood kids came to play and and pet him (no pics, not my kids) and some dogs stopped by to play and meet.
Yes, happy dog, those are alllll drool strings lol

 

[dionysus]

#@$# - ing cats (ok, @$$@ - ing kids)
A gaggle of school girls comes by
Can we pet Zannnnne? (Xan)
Yes
(happy Xan)
Other dog barks
Can we peeeeeet her?
No, she's a guard dog, never, ever, go near the gate
Ok
Ohhh, a cat ran back there, your dog will eat her
No, that's my cat - her kitty - she's fine
Nooooooooooooooo, go save the kitty
Kitty is fine
Nooooooooooooooo, go save her


*dino's trouble for *saving* the kitty
(kitty didnt want to be saved, was happy with doggo, away from kids, not happy producing *saved* cat to kids)
eesh

 

[Webzcas]

Cats are evil I am convinced

That was the cat's plan LOL
