Here's Sweet Pea and Boo Boo, relaxing on their sofa. Their hobbies are smelling stuff, barking, and occasionally digging holes. Both beagles, relaxing in their favorite spot.

Anybody else want to post some pictures of their "man's best friend"?

My 120lb pony likes to help clean up gravy spills from the counter. She also likes to clean up anything that happens to hit the floor.

This is Farley, a 55 pound white Standard French Poodle that is the 5th white standard my wife and I have had since 1966. He can swim, hunt, point, and retrieve quite well, with training. Full poodle teams have also finished high several times in the Iditarod Alaskan sled dog race. He loves being outside, and is naturally friendly around the house and with all age groups. Teaching and training is a snap.

Great puppies guys!

It's always fun to see woodworkers and their dogs. This seems to go hand in hand with tools around here.
We lost our old girl, would have been 12 next Sunday, to cancer in September. So we are down to 3. 8 year old Tainy aka Taineron's Tango At Coolmeadow Tainey ISCA 5-11B.jpg (Coolmeadow is our kennel name), 14 month old Jett Jett 3.16.12.jpg (the first of about 200 rescue dogs that have crossed our threshold that didn't leave), and soon to be 1 year old Ryder, aka Jadestar Stetson. Maverick 3.16.12.jpg (this is a pic from when we got him last spring). Ryder is the new show pup. This is a picture with both pups, mostly grown up. dscn3225 Jett and Ryder.jpg Yes, Ryder really is asleep in that position. One of the few minutes in any given day that they aren't playing!!! Jim.

Here's our Mandy, She joined our family when she was a year old, she's 10 now. She's a very good dog. She's originally from Pennsylvania. She likes to come out to she shop when my wife and I have coffee out there but otherwise she doesn't like the noise of the shop.

I'm waiting for Jim Becker to get involved in this thread...then you folks get to meet Elvis, Nellie....and the birds.....

[Randy Henry]

This is my buddy. He is a European German Shepherd and a retired police K9 for the agency I work for. I was his handler. He is 7 1/2 years old, and was an excellent narcotic/aggression/tracking dog. Kept me out of alot of fights. He is my dog now, and we let him breed our female Shepherd this summer. All I was wanting was a male pup, but was gifted with 7 females!! Gonna give it one more try, as I somehow think he won't mind. Oh, by the way, his name is "Henry". I did not name him, he came from Germany with that name, karma I guess.
