    Breeds you would have never considered owning until you met one

    So like the title says, has their ever been a certain breed of dog that either you didn't like the sound of them or they weren't on your radar at all, but you changed your opinion once you met one? For me I thought I wouldn't like whippets very much as the descriptions of their personalities...

    Foxy!

    Here's a whole bunch of Instagram photos of the foxdog :) I sent out a DNA test on her and she came back as a mini poodle/rat terrier with Japanese spitz and Ibizan hound in her ancestry as well :rofl1: I'll probably continue to refer to her as a chihuahua mix as I'm starting to doubt the...

    Cross country road trip with a dog

    I'm moving from Massachusetts to Oregon in a few days and I plan on driving the whole way with just me and my dog Foxy. She's generally good in the car, but hasn't rode with me farther than maybe 2.5 hours tops. Any tips/suggestions for making this journey as stress-free as possible for both of...

    Foxy lady

    I don't post nearly enough on here, as I mostly just lurk and covet all your dogs x3 but here are some updated photos of Foxy. She turned 1 year old at the end of February and is still as crazy as ever, if not more so. We just finished up her second manners class and will hopefully be starting...

    Introducing Foxy :)

    Untitled by foxdogphotos, on Flickr I finally have a dog of my own! I adopted her on Thursday from the shelter I work at. She's only 8 months old and we have a lot of socializing to do. She's shy around strangers, especially men. We're working on it and she's already become a lot more...

    Rarer breeds showing up on craigslist

    I was browsing through the pet section on Craigslist the other day and came across an ad for a poodle/malinois mix! It struck me as odd as I haven't even seen a single mal in person around here. Then today I saw an ad for a 7 month old Akbash Dog! I haven't even heard of that breed before, and I...

    Picking a Puppy

    Although I still have a long wait before I can get a dog, I was wondering if there is anything specific I should do when I go to pick my puppy. I already found a breeder with policies I agree with, so that part is done, but when the litter is born and I go meet them once they've grown up a...

    Editing photos, am I on the right track?

    I got a DSLR for Christmas and I'm still learning how to use it, but I'm also trying to figure out how to properly edit photos using Lightroom. I went to an agility trial recently and got a couple neat shots, but the bad lighting drained the photos a bit. Here's my first attempt at navigating...

    Mini Aussies

    Does anyone here have first hand experience with mini aussies? I'd love to hear anything and everything about them as I'm pretty sure they're the breed I'm going to go with for my first dog :) I've done some research on them but reading breed standards and the like is nowhere near as informative...

    Long time lurker

    Hi there :) I've been lurking on this site for a good while now so I figure it's about time I stopped being a creeper and actually joined in on some conversations! I don't currently have a dog, but hopefully this will change once I graduate college in May and once I find a 'real world' job. I've...
