Puppy Therapy Thread

[Northwoods]

Thanks for bringing this one back,great therapy.

from a fellow former Grand Maraiser.....how much snow is up there?

Not a lot. It's been a mild winter so far.

Sometimes dog owners start to resemble their pets. Sometimes pets mimic their owners ->



My daughter's Christmas gift. I have a friend that bird hunts with two boxers successfully. This one is a boxer and a Labrador. Time will tell but so far she is very trainable.

One of my favorite threads of all time. The pickup bed full of puppies is priceless!

Here is Jubal the day he came home and then a couple weeks ago playing in the snow.

Good pics, all. Here's a few updated ones from my litter. Three weeks old last Thursday.

The day my GSP Rudy came to join my family.


My old Vizsla not sure what to think about the new arrival.


As Rudy has grown he has learned to not only be a great hunter but how to be a great dog for my kids as well.

Like the above pic of the veteran and the interloper.......my older girl barked at the twerp every time she tried to get close for three months - best buds now.

Slightly off topic of puppies - but their huntin pards now

I love this thread. I'm about to flood it with some poor quality cell phone pictures.

The day we brought Enzo home


Doesn't look like much but he was attempting to point a deer shed



Never knew wirehairs were such water dogs. He is all about water retrieves


Pointing a robin on his morning walk

The "new huntin partner coming home with you for the first time" pic seem to be pretty popular.

Some good looking adopted kids!

Indeed. Thanks again 406 for starting it up. I have no idea how you breeders can do it. I understand the work and commitment involved in the puppy litter deal - but I think I'd have way too many four leggeds around if I tried it. Already have four......

 

[Fire_9]

Still loves his puppy bed and sleeps in some awkward postions...

When I put my deposit on my pup it was after the add for a much more affordable add had been pulled. Well, the add popped back up, and so I went and picked up my pup tonight. She is great. I think she is 12 weeks old now. I feel bad about backing out on the other dog, but this is going to save me 200 dollars. I'm in love. Oh well, the other breeder has the deposit, and I'm not going to ask for it back just because a better deal came along.

Here is a pic. Still can't think of a good name.

I finally came up with Silky. I was going to go with Charlie, but I have a student by that name and she objected. I went with Silky because I drink Black Silk coffee to wake up, and this pup definitely has me getting up (about three times a night). She has awesome instincts. I already throw the tennis ball and she will chase it across the floor and bring it to me and drop it at my feet. I have started treat training. She will pretty much go pee on command now. I will be starting with sit, down, and heel this week. I love coming home and having her greet me at the top of the stairs with that wagging tail that shakes her whole body. I still have quite a ways to go on the house breaking, but she is actually only 12 weeks old this week.
