So, what do you have?

2 year old spaniel, Sadie, very well trained gun dog, goes mad when you get the gun out and can retrieve almost perfectly now. Loves attention, great personality

15 month old Boxer - Rocky. Absolutely mental but awesome as hell.

5 month old miniature daschund - Lola. Starting to find her voice and get a bit of personality now.

I have a 6 year old miniature long haired dachshund, he's cute but has a temper on him like no other.

Got any pics? What's his colouring?

Our two

He doesn't know his strength and she doesn't care

Two useless Golden Retrievers. They're not very good at retrieving stuff, but they're very good at losing stuff.

I just popped into the kitchen to take a pic of him, he's a cream/black colour. His name is Bailey (from the drink) he's due for his monthly wash now, his coat is starting to get curly again!

Gilly · 19 Aug 2008 at 23:55

She's just been clipped and is usually a lot lighter.

Did you have trouble housetraining him?

DavidQ · 19 Aug 2008 at 23:57

not at all, the breeder we bought him from had him already trained. He's never put a foot wrong in terms of knowing where to do his number 1's and 2's.

An equally useless Collie.

om nom nom.

All the dogs on here look awesome, but these two look gorgeous. Me and my b/f would love a chocolate lab. Can't get over how cool those dogs look.

We've had quite a bit of trouble from her, but we got her fairly late.

Dillon - 3 years old now, we got him as a rescue dog from Ireland. We were told he is a Labrador/Boxer cross but he looks more Lab/Staffy to me..

Great dog though - very intelligent and loves swimming / retrieving

Gilly · 20 Aug 2008 at 00:02

Nah there does look to be some Boxer in there. His ears, lips and stance all look Boxer. Even his shoulders, though in a pure they'd be much bigger.

Great thread though - looking forward to seeing all the ocuk pooches

my sister had the same problem with her smooth haired dachshund, the breeder recommended that her water bowl be removed at a specific time in the evening and ensuring that she had x amount of chances to pee before bed time. She's now two years old and has no problems.

That's how we've had to approach it.

My big boy has been booked in for the snip this week. It makes me feel sick every time I think about it

Tombo · 20 Aug 2008 at 00:12

I've tried not to get mine done and won' unless it needs to be done.

Ours needs doing too soon. What are you worried about?
