Onyx is coming into heat, my baby's all grown up.

I like boy dogs better, but I really REALLY prefer the look/size of female Borzoi. I can't see myself with a male borzoi.

LOL, no! I honestly just really don't like how the males look. Like...I don't think I'd want one (which I realize is stupid, because you shouldn't care so much how a dog looks, but I don't find them nearly as aesthetically pleasing as the females).

Just saw this dog that a nearby shelter picked up. What odd coloring!

Blue merle with lots of copper and minimal white. Very pretty.

I wonder if his breeder has been contacted.

My dogs suck at sharing blankets with me.

Saxon just climbed right up on the peanut and stood there.

Okay then.

Also, Lickety Stiks are his favorite treat, which means Gavroche and Logan now love them as well, when they didn't before. I think I need to go stock up while they're still on sale.

Yus!

PW, for what it's worth some lines have bitchy looking dogs.

And different lines of zois have different looks to the males. Is it the mane?

Ozfozz · Feb 26, 2014

Wake up at 4am to get ready for work.
Oz, as usual is the only one to come downstairs with me.

He doesn't ask to be let out like he typically does, he just stands there watching me prep breakfast. So I figure alright you can wait for me to work on breakfast.

I turn my back to take my toast out....and he goes and craps all over the floor in the carpeted hallway! GRRRRR
WTF Oz?!?! 10 years old and you STILL can't manage to at the very least do it on the tile?
4am is NOT the time for this

And of course, the other 3 are still snuggled in bed

ETA - He is...or was....housetrained

Brought Patton to the office today and introduced the food treat wobbler ball for the first time ever to him.

I think he's in love!

Laurelin · Feb 26, 2014

Ahhhhh there's going to be a nosework trial in Dallas! So now I gotta get serious about the ORT because if we pass that then we could maybe title in Dallas. That'd be fantastic!

That is good to know! It's the sheer amount of coat mostly, and I like the feminine head better. But MOSTLY the quantity of coat that males seem to have.

For example (random pics from Google, for the record):

I DO NOT LIKE THIS!

I like this:

And yes, I'm sure a lot of it is grooming out the coat on the males for shows. But I just do not find it attractive

I mean, maybe I can just thin the everliving crap out of the coat? lol

ETA: Another example... I love love love the look of this person's bitches, but it's a big resounding no on the males. http://www.elanceborzoi.com/

Patton weighs 34 lbs, Recon weighs 42 pounds... SO CLOSE.

Also, yay for flyball this weekend and getting to see Patton, two of his littermates and his dad altogether, plus first flyball lesson for him and continuing flyball with Recon + seeing friends!

Abrams is trying to help me pack...by carrying the tape around and hiding it in places I cannot find.

Thank you, dog. Thank you.

Oko · Feb 26, 2014

Feisty did an awesome job at the beach today! Lots of people, lots of dogs. Recalled off sprinting full tilt many times, which wasn't supposed to be happening in the first place, but teenage puppy. Overall I was super impressed considering we have not been around a ton of other dogs and people lately, and her brain has kind of dropped out of her head in general. She didn't jump on anyone, woo! And she is kind of super adorably awkward when she plays with other dogs, she just play bows over and over and runs away, and then when they don't chase her she's all

Mia is a ball of static right now and I am having so much fun paying with her ear fringe.

Hahahahaha

Dogs. So much entertainment.
