Our dog rescue today! w/pics...

[freightdog]

A lady posted on craigslist that she really needed to get rid of two labs - she moved to an apartment in Williams after a divorce...

We found out through e-mail that her ex-husband had the two and was taking them to the pound today...

I had been saving for a Nikon D60 and really wanted a better camera - but hey - labs...you decide - drive almost four hours to get these two brothers...or...D60?

 

[bpassmore]

good choice - awesome of you.

 

[freightdog]

they are so cool with Hoss...

Rescued a 3 mo old ourselves on Wednesday. Nobody seems to know if he's a yellow lab or a Golden or both.

The guy found him on a farm, the farmer gave him the puppy, he took it home with no clue how to have a puppy. The wife met him at the vet when she took the Dane in and he offered her the dog.

It took three days to go from unhousebroken to crate trained and housebroken. He's getting better on the leash and obeys the basic sit and come commands. Smart flippin' dog.

Those pooches look they ate well! Good for you for adopting those dogs.

How does your dane handle the new pup?

 

[Gumby]

Bit jealous at first. He's doing a lot better now. Lots of playing and romping around.

 

[freightdog]

yep, they were overfed - they will be runnin with the ATV in the morning -

Nice - that is so cool - all in one week -

fed ours in front of the house then they came in and curled up and went to sleep!

Their pads are prolly tender.

I never could understand how people could take their freinds to the pound!
My hats off to you!

 

[gmarshall7]

Freightdog, have you named 'em yet?

 

[CJF]

Cool dogs!

How's this one doing?

Good call on picking the dogs over the camera! I would have done the same thing. My two 'boys' heard my bedroom door shut this morning upstairs and they came running to meet me!

good choice with the dogs!... since Nikon started using that punked douche bag as a company spokesman, I've decided to never buy any of their crap again.

That black one needs to lay off the breakfast buffet...

 

[cajun65]

Good score on the dogs.

boy are they ever - they discovered stickers today!

The skinny one is Homer and the fat one that can barely walk is Smudge = owners names...

They hate going outside! Hoss just looks at them - he was born huge!

I went to pick up the puppy and she had sold it out from under me - not happy about that one...

 

[splitshot]

Good looking pooches.

Got any bunnies for them to chase?

 

[Spook50]

You made the right choice, IMO.

Good looking dogs.

 

[Southeast Overland]

I bet Smudge could put a hurting on that Doritos truck.
