My girl enjoys running at the farm.

She looks like she is waiting for you to run with her

Daughters Tibetan Spaniel hopelessly tangled in hay net.
I took a round bale out and unwrapped the net so we could put a hay net on, a hay net is a heavy string net that the round bale is placed in and restricts how much a horse can take from the bale, it also stops them tearing it to pieces and spreading it around, she threw the wrap on the ground and Toto (I call it Dodo) decided this would be fun to roll in, 30 seconds later he was hopelessly entangled and stuck and looking a bit sheepish.

I know this really isn’t the place for this but I’m running out of places I can advertise. This is GiGi, 4 year old spayed Shepard, I’m looking to rehome.

I’m located near Columbus Ohio, I’m willing to drive and meet someone half way or something.

She’s been labeled as a Dangerous dog for nipping (Bruised) a FedEx driver in my yard. She’s in compliance now, that label only follows her inside Ohio, everything is transferable.

She’s very sweet, not violent, maybe a bit territorial. House broke, knows commands, electric fence trained, crate trained (I was told), spayed, up to date on everything, just got 3 year rabies.

If you all know someone looking for a dog or relatively close let me know. Thanks

Koalas are so cute!

NEVER trust any animal that is cute looking:laughing:

Hope you can find a home for her. I just got into trouble for taking in the neigbors dog who he dumped off at the pound but told everyone he found a home for him, and we're past our limit of dogs, and trying to find him a home after training him some more.

I don't want to get off the subject and derail a thread, but I have to ask, was the only "infraction" of the dog nipping (assuming skin not punctured) a fed ex driver on your property that has her labled as "dangerous"? Has other strangers been on your property and did she have a problem with them? I just find it hard to believe that the government can lable a dog dangerous for one "nipping" incident. Heck, if that were the case, pretty much every little yappy dog could be in jeapordy of being dangerous.

This is our guy we rescued a few years ago.. just in from a walk in the woods...about ready for a nap.

Look at the size of those paws!

Had to say good by to this little guy Monday. He was two months short of 15 years. Mick sings the Beatles with Wilma - YouTube

I'm sorry, that sux. Was he a chinese crested or tibet terrier? Our abby kind of looks like him.

 

[Alien]

Definitely not a Chinese Crested. (I have 2 Cresteds)

We adopted ours, the people at the dog pound said the litter were chinese crested powder puffs. But, googling pix, I think she looks more tibetan terrier.

This was a few years ago, Sofie and Max (we re-homed him after he killed one of our other dogs) and Abby...the chinese crested powder puff tibetan terrier or whatever she is.

 

[Alien]

And a couple of Mareemas I see too!

One of ours is a CC Powder puff and the other is a hairy hairless. We rescued the hairy hairless and spent a fortune on his teeth. LOL He had practically no hair on his body so my wife shaved him and he now has a lovely coat of hair. Not fluff like the Powder Puff. He has a very unusual character and is very likeable but has an aversion to strange men. It took him 12 months to accept me after all the trauma his last owner put him through but now he is quite happy to jump up on my lap when he feels like it. My wife can't make a move without him following. He has the loudest howl of any dog I have ever heard.
The other Powder puff and Pug stick with me, but they all get along.

Alien, yeh. Like I said, we had to rehome one of them.

Soon after this pic was taken, max bit sammy in the face, and messed him up so bad we had to put little sammy down.




He was very unpredictable with other dogs.

Our Mareema has been gone for near on 3 years now and he nipped a couple of folks. One was told not to put his hand out to him but he did and the other was a crim and the dog sensed it and nipped him on the butt.

I love dogs more than any man IMO. That said, one time I had a dog cause sever bodily harm to another dog in my home. That dog was put down (with tears in my eyes). I wouldn't put the same dog that could kill another dog in another home. That said, the assumption is the new owner of the dog you rehomed knows the previous history of the dog and it would remain a one dog home so it wouldn't be put in the same position.

There is only one master in the house.

Yeh, that's a familiar sight, that vid lol. Is that your youtube channel?

Our max bit mostly dogs, he snipped at me and my wife but no biggie. But dogs, he bit all 3 of our other dogs, my brother's dog, our friends' (plural) dogs...jeez! Take a chill pill, max!

What does crim mean?

Oh yeh Sigarms, I totally hear ya, dude! No, he went to a farm, I wouldn't put him in another home either. My wife found a group on facebook for these sort of situations.
Anyway, we connected with a sheep farm in Iowa, I drove him there. He's doing real good there, the guy sends us updates.

The maremmas came from a nearby farm, they were mistreated there. We got sophie first, she was 60 lbs when we got her. She's 110 now, so that tells you what it was like there. My wife Rosa would go there every day after we got sophie, she would feed max. Finally one day, she just up and took max away from that farm. He was a very sweet dog with humans, we liked him a lot. But he was so unpredictable with other dogs, he wouldn't even give a warning growl or anything, would just bite. He was just no good as a housedog.

Ozzie slang again. LOL Crim as in criminal. He was a fraudster and theif and finished up in jail. He lived in our road. Nobody liked him and we were all pleased when he moved out. They say dogs can sense untrustworthy people.
re Youtube, Yes, that is where I put some vids to share with friends etc. I also have a Vimeo account.
Max will be fine on the farm. They are not a town dog by any means. Our Maremma used to patrol our property every evening barking and warning all predators to stay away. I really miss him.

FYI, I apologize. If you love your dogs, my comment was uncalled for, but it so happen I had a bad day with a dog fight. See below



Yesterday at the vet after a dog fight with a new dog in our home after about a month. New pack dynamic, and the new dog didn't even cause the problem. Have no clue why, but it always seems we have an emergency over the weekend which raises the price.

We went through a lot of dogs in our home finding homes for them, and I would never be such a big prick to put a dog down over a fight (it happens with dogs being pack animals). BUT... if I a dog were to kill another dog, we wouldn't put another homeowner through the ordeal having to deal with that possibility.

Now, what's interesting is when I say a dog went to the farm and away from the house, the reality was the dog was put down.

Personally, if you got Sophie first and Max came in afterwards and killed Sophie, I'd have a hard time not taking him to the farm before the vet could.

The dog we put down wasn't shot, we took him to the vet. Dog had a steak meal his last day and he was treated like he was our own and died in my arms stroking his fur talking to him. I'm not a heartless *******.

FYI, I would be a heartless ******* with the maremmas previous owners though. Those dogs are a creation of their master IMO.

No worries at all Sig, and sorry to hear about your dog, sux you had to go through that. Yeh Max wasn't vicious, he wouldn't keep on biting, I think it was more him "correcting" other dogs. Problem is one of his bites on a little dog is enough. He caught Sammy on the face and broke his jaw in a bad spot, really messed him up. Technically, he didn't "kill" Sammy, we had to put the little guy down. Sammy was already old and had health problems, the vet said putting him through surgery and recovery was just torture for him he likely wouldn't survive it, so we put him down. Max bit our little Abby before also, didn't really hurt her at the time, but we couldn't take another chance with him.

Really, we have ourselves to blame, we originally kept him outside thinking he'd patrol the grounds (we keep ducks and also had pigs at the time), but he was just insistent to come inside lol. He'd jump the fence, walk around to the front of the house, would just sit there in front of the front door until we would let him in, the bugger! He was a really cool overall though, we miss him.

 

[Alien]

The only time our Maremma would want inside was when a thunderstorm happened or if he heard gunshots. LOL
