Looks Aussie/Golden to me also :wink:

I love the ears! :D I agree that with those ears, and that tail it might have some kind of pharoh hound or ibizian hound though they are pretty rare :-?

Well at least he doesn't come up behind you and jump on you (growling and being mean) while you are on a walk! My mom has to put up with that every day! :evil:

Well... my site is being ONERY and won't let me put the calf pics on :evil: , but I did manage to get some other pics on! [url]www.yellowlabsrule.caviesrule.com[/url] (photo page 2 & 3 )

I don't think dogs are racist, but I think that if a certain kind of person (black, white, native american, whatever) was mean to them, then I think that they would connet all people of that color to them being mean.

Wow, someone actually misses me??? :o Yes I've been busy with new babies, out of town, and at doggie days :oops: But, I'll try to come on more! Sable is doing great, she just got her frontline put on and was better than Winnie about it :lol: Winnie's kinda jealous, because Sable can outdo her in anything. :lol: (except Winnie is the best licker and lover :wink: ) Sable is VERY smart, except for the electric fence which she has run into multiple times, so now when I go to the barn she stays at the house, sitting on the porch :lol: She loves her toys and the day before yesterday she caught a frisbee and I think she pulled a muscle, so she slept with me :D (more Winnie jealousy) I think she's ok now, but we're taking it easy. (yeah right! try telling a ACD/BC to rest! :roll: ) Well, I better get caught up here...I'll try and come more :wink:

Five Good Reasons Why You Should Spay or Neuter Your Pet 1) Spaying or neutering increases your pet's chances for a longer, healthier life. Spaying your pet before her first estrous cycle (that is, before she reaches sexual maturity) greatly reduces her chances of developing breast cancer and completely eliminates the threat of uterine and ovarian cancer and uterine infection, which are common occurrences in unaltered females. Neutering your male dog or cat prevents testicular tumors and may prevent prostate problems. Neutering also decreases the possibility of perianal tumors and hernias, which are commonly observed in older, unaltered dogs. Because neutered cats are less likely to roam, the threat of abscesses caused by bites and diseases transmitted by fighting are greatly reduced. 2) An altered dog or cat is a better pet for your family. Males neutered early in life are less aggressive toward other males and are not distracted by females in heat. Therefore, a neutered male will be less tempted to leave your property and cross that dangerous highway searching for a mate. Neutered males also are less likely to mark every one of your (or your neighbor's) expensive shrubs with his urine as well as inside the house. Spaying your female pet eliminates the problem of stray males camping in your yard and decreases her desire to roam and breed. 3) No family wants to cope with an unwanted pregnancy. Spaying prevents your pet from giving birth to unwanted puppies or kittens. 4) Spaying results in a cleaner female dog and home. Because female dogs pass bloody fluid for about ten days, twice a year, as a part of their estrous cycle, constant care must be taken to avoid carpet stains in homes with such animals. Spaying your dog eliminates this problem. 5) You are helping to alleviate the dog and cat overpopulation problem. Each year, millions of unwanted dogs and cats are euthanized (killed) at shelters across the country. Although pet behavioral problems are the main reasons animals are given to shelters, many orphans are the result of accidental breeding by free-roaming, unaltered pets. The more pets spayed or neutered, the fewer dogs and cats will have to be destroyed. Delaware Humane Association does not euthanized; however, hundreds of dogs and cats are turned away each year because there is simply not enough room at the shelter to accommodate them. Six Common Excuses for Not Spaying or Neutering Pets 1) My pet will get fat and lazy. Neutering or spaying may diminish your pet's overall activity level, natural tendency to wander, and hormonal balances, which may influence appetite. Pets that become fat and lazy after being altered usually are overfed and do not get enough exercise. 2) We want another pet just like Rover and Fluffy. Breeding two purebred animals rarely results in offspring that are exactly like one of the parents. With mixed breeds, it is virtually impossible to have offspring that are exactly like one of the parents. 3) My pet's personality will change. Any change will be for the better. After being altered, your pet will be less aggressive toward other dogs or cats, have a better personality, and will be less likely to wander. Spraying (urine marking), which is often done by dogs and cats to mark their territory, diminishes or ceases after pets are altered. 4) We can sell puppies or kittens and make money. Even well-known breeders are fortunate if they break even on raising purebred litters. The cost of raising such a litter -- which includes stud fees, vaccinations and other health care costs, and feeding a quality food -- consumes most of the "profit." Well-known breeders raise breeds that they like. These breeders also try to improve the standard of the breeds they raise. 5) My children should witness our pet giving birth. Pets often have their litters in the middle of the night or in a place of their own choosing. Because pets need privacy when giving birth, any unnecessary intrusion can cause the mother to become seriously upset. These intrusions can result in an unwillingness to care for the offspring or in injury to the owners or to the pet. 6) I am concerned about my pet undergoing anesthesia. Placing a pet under anesthesia is a very common concern of owners. Although there is always a slight risk involved, the anesthetics currently used by veterinarians are very safe. Many veterinarians use equipment that monitors heart and respiratory rates during surgery to ensure that their patients are doing well under anesthesia. Thus, the medical benefits of having your pet spayed or neutered far outweigh the slight risk involved with undergoing anesthesia. Consult your veterinarian if your are concerned about this aspect of the procedure. Spay and Neuter Your Pets! Good for You, Your Pet, and the Community Prevent A Litter - It's Good for You Spayed and neutered pets are better, more affectionate, companions. Neutered cats are less likely to spray and mark territory. Spaying a female dog or cat eliminates its heat cycle, which can last twenty-one days, twice a year, in dogs, and anywhere from three to fifteen days, three or more times a year, in cats. Females in heat often cry incessantly, show nervous behavior, and attract unwanted male animals. Spayed and neutered pets are less likely to bite. Unaltered animals often exhibit more behavior and temperament problems than those that have been spayed or neutered. Prevent a Litter - It's Good for Your Pet Spayed and neutered dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives. Spaying female dogs and cats eliminates the possibility of uterine or ovarian cancer and greatly reduces the incidence of breast cancer. Neutering male dogs and cats reduces the incidence of prostate cancer. Neutered animals are less likely to roam and fight. Prevent A Litter - It's Good for the Community Communities spend millions of dollars to control and eliminate unwanted animals. Irresponsible breeding contributes to the problem of dog bites and attacks. Animal shelters are overburdened with surplus animals.

Pumpkin, we have a supporter of this website on doggie days ( [url]http://pub77.ezboard.com/bdoggiedays[/url] ) and we need your help and opinion!

[quote]Don't worry though if Sable is reserved in your name....(rescues do normally do that) know one else can have her! [/quote] That's the thing, it's a private party not a rescue which is good and bad :-? I guess...

Ok, I will try to describe her (I know it isn't as good as a pic, but it's all I got.) She has big ears, she is white with black spots on her back, little brown spots on her legs, and VERY sweet. Sorry, I can't really remember, I was looking at her heart not her body! She tried to follow me to the car and she looked longingly...I love her so much I'm crying I wish she was here right now beside me... THANK YOU LORD! And all those who have supported me and given me advise! I don't know what I'd had done without you Oh, and forgot to say...I found my puppy stuff (for when I was going to get a puppy last year) and it's adjustable and I think it will fit her! I got two kong's and guess what? Some guy was getting rid of chain link fence, posts, and a gate that was previously used as kennel! FOR FREE! :o :D Not sure I can get those kongs away from Winnie though! She is VERY perplexed! But she's having fun, cause her tails wagging.

Does anyone have that specific mix? If so what are there temperment, what do they like, etc?

Ok, I went there and she was WONDERFUL! My dream dog! :D The only bad thing is I can't get her till monday :( because we are to busy this weekend :( :( The gal said she wouldn't give her away to anyone else, but anything could happen :cry: BUT SHE'S PERFECT! CUTE, BEAUTIFUL, AND SWEET! The weird this is she knew sit, down, come in english and in a French slang lanuage she called ringside??? Very strange, but kinda cool! (I think she knows the french better than english! :o :lol: )

Ok, I'll try not to get to tired or exited! :D

I don't know! I always thought that it was 50 100 200 500 2000

Oh boy, nothing like Nike to give us Oregonians a bad name. I can't believe that there was a fight in Oakland though! :o I've never heard of a fight here, but maybe I'm naive to it...
