Can a cute dog also be a fierce hunter?

In summary, Daniel's dog is cute, and his older daughter's dog is also cute. His sister is giving him a hamster in a few months, and he is looking forward to it.

It's absolutely gorgeous, Evo!
I'm usually most fond of labradors and rottweilers, but your cuddly friend is simply adorable.

wanna know something that sounds pathetic, but really isn't. My best friends are here.

Yep - definitely cute.

You're cute too, Tribdog. *pats Tribdog* Don't want any rivalries now. :biggrin:

Are you saying that Tsu is your dog?

Great pictures! Wish I could say the same about my almost 1 year old kitten...she is full of trouble and usually when I come home, I find her water dish spilled all over the kitchen floor, some sort of picture or paper shredded, or my computer desk has been cleared off of anything she can swipe away (not the computer luckily).

Very cute doggie! I just noticed that the middle picture looks like the same pose you use for your avatar photo! It's a good angle for both of you. Well, at least if you're going to risk starting to look like your dog, you picked a cute one.

I was just thinking the same thing, where the camera sits, if you're looking at the monitor, that's the angle. He was looking at himself in the monitor in the second picture. :biggrin:

This was actually my older daughter's dog, but she wasn't home enough to take care of it, so she gave it to me. Tomorrow she is giving me her cat because she's decided she's allergic to it. She's decided to replace it with a hamster. In a few months I will have a hamster. :rolleyes: Thank goodness she doesn't like snakes. :bugeye:

Does she know hamsters are nocturnal? They'll stay up all night on that little squeaky running wheel, and can be pretty grouchy if you want to play with them during the day.

Evo, is that the JAWS OF DEATH you've been talking about,or the other one? :confused:
 
  • #20
Integral, my brother has a dog like that one. It barks constantly. In an effort to get it to shut up he bought a shock collar. I was curious as to how shock collars work so I put it on my neck. I made a barking noise and it gave me a warning beep, I barked a second time and WHAM! ! it shot a bolt of lightning into my neck. I screamed in surprise and WHAM! it got me again.its a neverending cycle. once the batteries died and I quit twitching I refused to let them put that torture device on the dog.

The JAWS OF DEATH is an insane inbred yellow labrador that is at least ten times the size of this one.

This one has never chewed anything it wasn't supposed to. o:) This dog likes fruit salad and sauteed veggies.
 
  • #22
Aww, Integral, it's a cutie!

Monique, that is a very pretty dog!

When I was little, my brother's evil hamster ate the head off my hamster. I kept telling my mom that his hamster was biting mine and to put it in a different cage. Then one morning... :cry:

Baaaaaaaad hamster...:yuck: I would have liked to introduce him to my evil,black cat Suzy...:devil:

You should see him when I have a salad, he goes nuts. He loves tomatoes. Fresh fruit is his favorite though, especially grapes.

I here you about the barking, I cannot imagine putting such a device on a Pom! I would bet that they are designed with a Lab sized dog in mind, a poor little Pom would not stand a chance.

Oh, yeah our little guy's official name is Sir BarksaBearylot, other wise know as Little Bear (or now that he is a whopping 12lb, Little barrel)

You have very unnatural pets evo.. All my dog would do is growl at me, and eat, and sleep. :confused:

I'd want to replace my dog for a wolf.. if i had a tame one avaliable.

Our astro department has a "department beast" which is a great pyrenees. It's not uncommon to have him hang out in the back of a classroom and he's very huggable! :smile:

Hey, that sounds familiar. My sister used to have hamsters and sometimes she'd find one decapitated :yuck: :yuck: I don't like hamsters..

Yeah, they don't play nice together, are amazing escape artists, and can be generally grouchy toward their owners (definitely not suitable for children, in my opinion; they don't tolerate a little awkward handling). Though, they are sooooooo cute.
