I get to bring this baby girl home saturday. Previous owners beat her and she's pretty underweight, but she's gonna get nothing but cuddles now

My dog's previous owner used to put him in dog fights very often. So I had to host a couple of dog fights at my home a few times a week for a year until he got used to not fighting dogs all the time.

Wasn't that just brilliant of them?

grovesimus (21 hours ago) [-] if shibas are doges and corgis are corgis, would a mix of them be called dorge?

questionableferret ONLINE (01/12/2016) [-] As cute as that may be, I really fear for that poor pup's later life. I've heard that Corgis and Shibas both have enough complications of their own due to breeding so cross-breeding between them seems like it's bound to end up badly.
It's because of stuff like that that I always go with a Border Coli. Smart, hard-working sheepdogs. Healthy, long-lived, and plenty of fun.

ultimatebuttercup (21 hours ago) [-] ACTUALLY, cross breeding usually helps more than it hurts (in most cases anyways). Purebreeds are usually the ones that experience the most problems because of selective breeding weakening the breed rather than strengthening the breed. Crossbreeding "can" give the strengths of both breeds and reduce the likelihood of problems.

ciacheczko (21 hours ago) [-] Mixing two different kinds of dogs is good for their health.
A dog of each race gets gentic disorders because in order to make it look the way it does its ancestors have been bred only with other similar dogs, narrowing the genetic pool to the point where it started to work like inbreeding. And, as we know, the more inbred a kid is, the bigger chance of it being retarded.
Different dog races means different genetic pools and a mix should actually have much less potential for disorders typical to the races it originated from. It's technically a mutt, only a pretty-looking one.
Long story short, nastoy is correct.

cursedjester (01/12/2016) [-] It entirely depends what the health condition is about, I suppose.
Bigger dogs cross-bred with smaller dogs can lose the future strain on their hearts and organs because of their other genetic half.
That said, I had a German/Collie mix. Old man lived until he was about 15, nearly 16, and could've probably kept going if he didn't lose his back legs to Shepherd's Arthritis. The Collie mix kept him going remarkably well though past anyone else his age.

Poor baby. Pet him and talk to him softly. He was scared by all the noise and racket.

Heyyy pet owners.
'bout to open a kennel: Why would you not put your dog in a kennel? Seems as good as place as any to ask. Attempting to make the place..not suck for animals, and curious what people are afraid of when it comes to them.

itskennyandjosh (21 hours ago) [-] **itskennyandjosh used "*roll picture*"**
**itskennyandjosh rolled image**When i was a kid we went through a carwash with my friends mom and my friend on the way home, and my friend thought it would be a good idea to open the window and taste the water when it was pouring.
Let's just say he didn't enjoy it
