That's exactly what my wife does when she walks our dog. The two cats go along for the walk.

If you're looking for companionship, you can't go wrong with a golden retriever. My dog, Jack, is without a doubt, my most loyal and best friend. He also gets his share of looks. Beautiful animal.

Best family dog on the planet for my money!

Goldies are very high energy, though, so probably not a good choice for beb.

Randy, Goldies are very prone to lymphosarcoma. As Jack gets older, you will want to take him to get check ups probably every 6 months. If you notice any odd lumps or bumps, get them checked out immediately. Lymphosarcoma responds well to treatment if caught early.

Best dog I ever had was a Golden. He died of pnuemonia when I was about 14. That was tough.

Of course, I have to give a shout out to my namesake (and personal favorite breed), the heeler. Unfortunately, Wyatt, the dog who inspired my screen name, died of congestive heart failure last year. Not a dog for everybody as they are tempermental, snappy little beasts. However, they are loyal, protective, and tough as nails, too. They really do best as farm dogs.

My friend had one, he was prehistoric... his name was Darwin, and lived on a ranch.

Well just to post an update, I got sucked into buying a Bulldog, I couldnt help it. I really have wanted one for awhile and after careful thought I decided this was the best time to get one seeing that I had the money and people to help take care of it. I hope I made a good decision below I've attached a couple pictures of him.

RFS62 · 06-26-2006, 11:09 AM

Good luck. It's a big committment to own a dog.

vaticanplum · 06-26-2006, 11:10 AM

Oh my Lord, he is adorable. Does he have a name yet? Has he bitten through your hand yet?

Good luck!

Thanks guys, yes it was hard to pick out a name b/c I liked a couple including Winston, Tank, and Whitey (which was breeders original nickname for it) but the one i stuck with was Dozer.

I dated a girl whose boxer was named Winston, same face.

Congrats, beb! Hard plastic toys are all I can really give my lab...watch him like a hawk because I'm sure he'll put anything into his mouth and start chewing!
