Dogs

[strider]

A Weimaraner? We used to have one living down the street; quite a playful dog, it was, although a little scary to have around little children.

They are quite active, tend to jump, and are fairly large so they could knock small children over when they've just been introduced and/or are excited. Regular vigorous walks help a lot in this regard. Ours is an adjunct babysitter in our house:

A lot of sleeping going on at our house

I remember a baby my mum cared for, sitting in the garden, dog babysitting beside here. The baby got a biscuit she thought was a bit too hard. So she showed the biscuit to the dog, he softened it by likking it with his tongue, and then when soft enough the baby ate the biscuit! :tongue:
It was so funny to watch them both at work! :biggrin:

Woo hoo for Weims!

With very little training, they are the PERFECT kid companion. Meet Cosimo!

Kaci the Bichon is very good at naps,
Maxamillion the Shitzu loves golf car rides and wrestling with Kaci
Teddy the Chow mix Rides in his favorite seat in the bus and watches for horses, who he thinks he is related to.
Teddys job is to look after the little ones and he is very good at it.

Do these come with leashes now, too?
:biggrin:

No, but be prepared to be replaced by the new electric dog (ED) soon ...
No Kibbles, no fur to shed, no scooping -- you can't compete!

Just one objection:

My dog has many fears: Fireworks /…/ which is funny because none of these things present any real harm to him

Remember that dogs have much better and more sensitive hearing than we humans do.

/.../

Loud fireworks hurt dog's ears

/.../

The loud rapport from /…/ fireworks can [therefore] be painful to them.

More on your wolf-descendant’s hearing:

The frequency range of dog hearing is approximately 40 Hz to 60,000 Hz,[123] which means that dogs can detect sounds far beyond the upper limit of the human auditory spectrum./…/ A dog can /…/ hear sounds at four times the distance [a human can].[125]

Our new puppy (now 15 weeks old) kept escaping from the kitchen to other parts of the house. Caught her on video today opening the "child-proof" gate I had set up to keep her from roaming...

Love how our other dog looks surprised!

haha, there was definitely a WTF moment there for the other dog.

You can teach an old dog new tricks. (Although my wife insists she can't teach me anything!)

Hehe. Great reaction from the other dog. So, puppies are smarter than human toddlers, eh?!
