AND...Marty kills the thread because everyone will feel their dog looks inferior to the muscle and tone that is Lilbit.:lol-sign:
:lol-sign:

I was going to say Kadin does OK in this area, but it's pretty much a moot point after lil bit gets posted.

Here is a pretty good shot of Chloe... (of course she pales in comparison to Lil Bit lol) but she has pretty good muscle tone :)

Rizzo muscle tone sucks! -_- She's better than when I first got her though! And still slowly gaining more muscle :)

Buster's is pretty poor. He's still slim but he's not as fit as I want him.
Just had the behaviourist come to see Harry and we discussed Buster a lot, I have direction now so I can start working harder with him, I'm not as fit as I want to be either, so we can do it together

All my dogs are pretty hard right now. Nonnie carries good muscling as a genetic thing....Ellie plays a LOT as do Cleo and Buck.

I was combing out Cleo's legs today and man..they felt like iron. Now that she is getting thinner in coat you can see her muscling a lot easier.

Kharma is quite well muscled, even though it's more difficult to see underneath her looser skin, but that loose skin is quite handy when you're dealing with large predators - or people, as it makes it quite difficult to hold a Fila without the Fila being able to get you ;)



Bimmer isn't heavily muscled; he's built more like a distance runner underneath that pelt of his.

Tallulah . . . :eek: She is really shaping up, and has the thin Pittie skin that really shows the muscle, like a bodybuilder. Getting her to hold still long enough to get a pic is nigh unto impossible though.

Nik's old and flabby.

Trey's old and boney.

Beau is rock solid under all that hair- broad chested and muscular.

Rose is pretty average.

Summer is skinny and lanky.

Buster is pretty much in shape. I hope to do better over the summer stamina wise, but not bad.

Muscle tone, not bad, but he does not have a lot of it. And its hard to see under all his fur. Its almost like a distance husky, you know there is muscle under there, but you can't see it!

Wally has gotten a little soft over the past year, but mostly because we've had on and off joint issues (both he and I) so I haven't been able to walk him nearly as much as we used to walk. He still has clearly defined muscles, though, but that is just his genetics.

Teeny is a brick . . . house. For her walking wouldn't do much anyway. Without the walking she is constantly racing around like a speeding bullet, and playing hard out in the daycare yard 4+ days a week. Even with the little bit of extra weight right now from being in heat (probably an extra 3 or 4 pounds) she is still ripped. I love my muscle monster :D

I'd like Virgo to fill out her shoulders a little, any one got any good advice for that? Just keep taking her swimming?

I wish I had been able to get a good shot of this at the time, but the last time we were out with Smkie on the creekwalk, Virgo just vaulted up this 15 foot high bank like it was nothing...you should have SEEN her muscles as she pulled herself up. And that was after being pretty lazy all winter!

Its nice to see everyones little body builders!! Even the dogs with longer hair... you still see muscle under there.

I am glad lil bit is female. It shows that females can be even buffer than the males. More power to the females! Shes awesome, as well as the other females posted. :)

Ok, so here is Reggy. I took pics of him last night playing with my chihuahua. You can see mostly on his back legs and a little on his shoulders. They're not action shots either, their just of him standing. My little boy is turning into a young man!

Probably the best and most recent photo I have that shows it. Ignore the fact that she's doing some weird climbing/trying to eat the tree maneuver.

Eve is extremely lean, but she doesn't have huge bulgy muscles nor does she appear to since she's hairy. She's built for speed and has the kind of hard, strong muscles that give her amazing endurance. Petting Eve is kind of like petting a rough coated rock. I love the condition she's in.

Zaphod has a lot less muscle tone than the BCs, but he appears ripped because of his short coat. He'll be a pretty hulky dog when he's fully grown, I think.
