All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.

Rules (Will be refined later on).

Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

This dog looks identical to my dog

Have you tried letting your dog near musical instrument cases? We need research.

The dog trap is working.

Some dogs love to howl along with music, but your dog must really want to be an instrument. :D

Well it was obviously designed for him so I don’t know why you’re complaining.

This looks like an honest to goodness professional photography shoot. Reminds me of this thrift store book find called "Maddy on Things" which was a photo journal of this guy and his dog driving across the country taking pictures of his dog Maddy standing on things. Which was apparently a quirk the dog had and he decided to do something with it.

I've never wanted to be the main character in any book more.

Is your dog a cat?

The guitar case has the neck support he needs when you're not strumming his belly.

Mine would fit in a fiddle case. He'd probably enjoy me closing the lid too.

New portable dog carrier!!

Or maybe the doggie was a guitar in a past life?

What kind of dog is that? The mottling is why I'm asking. We've got a yellow lab, but no papers or DNA results, but he's got mottling like that on one of his legs that leads us to believe he's mixed with something.

I am not sure, but you might want to ask this person as his dog looks identical: https://lemmy.world/comment/8737478
