The "kids"

sure I can. in fact, sounds like you called her a cheat, too... suggesting they're a product of the postman and all... I bet if I ask Princess she'd agree with me and offer to whack you upside the head with a skillet for us as well! (except that might be awful hard on the skillet...)

So, I showed the thread to Tara last night - she gives Princess a green light on that skillet.... and is threatening to set up her own profile - but that may just be as a way to keep ME off line. :(

:punk::punk: Now THAT might get interesting!:hide::hide:
 
took Denali (the dark puppy) to the vet for his annual check-up and booster shots last night. he weighs 82 pounds. when he first showed up at the shelter, they told us he weighed 42, and they thought he was 2....

Scary thing is, at the 20 months I think he is, he's not going to be done filling out for another 6-8 months...

Charlie - at only 60 pounds, is still the boss. The other night when we got home from work, they both ran up to the fence and I saw Charlie shoulder block Denny into the hot wire so he could be front and center...
 
Charlie's a smart dog :mrgreen: I bet Denalie yelped.... Where did you get the name Denalie from?
I bet Tara has a full lap when she sits down :yum: :mrgreen:
 
Denali is the nativename for Mt McKinley.
since Denny is a Husky, it seemed appropriate.
Tara says we are NEVER naming another pet after a mountain, because we seem to have gotten what we asked for. (the Husky I had before him was named Alferd Packer, because I found him starving and wounded in a bad ice storm)
When he stands up on his hind legs he's almost as tall as me, and Tara's not a particularly tall person...
 
now that he's mostly grown, we think he's mostly Malamute Husky rather than Siberian, but the sibe I had before him weighed 93 pounds and wasn't fat, so it may just be that someone in the area has bred them big and mostly too smart to keep penned up without a hot wire.
 
I had a husky German Shepperd (police dog) years ago....I loved that dog. He would stand on the porch at the screen door and talk to me with guttural grows while I cooked in the kitchen lol
 
yup.
Denny does that, too.
wowowowow - right next to you all the time you're pouring food, or any other time you're not paying enough attention to him. Funny thing is, he doesn't talk when he's inside.

I have a siberian husky purebred and hes not fat and about 90 pounds. everyone thinks he is a malamute. hes a great dog, but you can't keep them contained to your property without a hotwire. I have to have a horse electric fence around the entire yard to keep him in, and you better watch out if you open the gate and he gets loose. Once he is loose the chase is on.

yup.
that's our kids!
we first put up the hotwire for Alferd, he found it by going over to "mark" the post we attached one of the insulators to...
never got within 3 feet of the fence again, unless one of us humans was with him.
 
once they experience the hotwire, they instanly learn to respect it. My husky doesn't jump, but he digs like no other. I have to run the hotwire around the bottom of the fence, so he doesnt dig underneath it.

You must love this dog a lot....:biggrin:
Acually I don't have any room to laugh...we had a 250 pound wild hog we raised from a baby that was bad about trying to get out and run straight to my FIL's flower garden :rolf2:We had to electric wire him in too. I miss that pig:in_love:
These pictures aren't as bright as I would like...he's the big black animal :rolf2:You may have to enlarge a little to see better:sad::hammer:

We had him for about three years. He had tusks that kept growing and when he weighed more than Redneck it got harder to saw them off LOL. Pig Pig (his name) would lay where ever the kids were playing. He loved them as much as they loved him:wub: We were afraid he would just walk by one of the kids and slash a leg or side with the tusks. It's like he knew what was up that day and would not go in the horse trailer. He followed me because I was "momma" to him. Awwwwww...It breaks my heart again....
We ended up loading him in the horse trailer to take him to an uncle that owns a hunting Ranch thing....People paid him lots of money to hunt baited animals. Anyway, Pig Pig was his mascot for the place. He would run out to greet visitors like a pet dog:yum: the hunters got a kick outta hand feeding him with corn.....

yup. we run 2 strands just for this reason. one at the top of the fence, one about 8" off the ground.
