But she's also no puppy & was truly desperate for a "home". The shelter that she was at let me take her around on a couple occasions to "meet and greet" because I had an elderly uncaged ferret at home and wanted to make sure she'd be nice to him, and she was wonderful, he died a very content old ferret. But I also had a shelter-dog for many, many years who hunted anything & everything he could. I'd stay clear of any breed of hunting/tracking/or incredibly dominant dogs. From my experience, some small dogs are nastier than the HUGE ones (makes up for their lack of size?) Also, I really hope that your cats still have their claws, yes? That is a cat's defense, especially when it comes to a dog's teeth - I think that's what makes a dog think twice & what chance does a cat have without them with an angry dog in front of them, no matter what size? Just my opinion  8. marca 2008, 02:20:30 Subjekt: Re: I need to call on your experience and knowledge Jim Dandy: One more thought, if I may - being that the cats were there first should help BIG time. Even my "Duck-Killer" (and everything else) dog was tolerant of a rabbit that I had at the time who was cage-free whenever I was home, they weren't best-buds by far, but I think he knew who was there first 8. marca 2008, 04:32:59 Subjekt: Re: I need to call on your experience and knowledge srnity: yes on everything you said,lol!!! The one thing tho that I REALLY need to point out is the dominance thing that you mentioned,and the fact that Jim says he will be getting a puppy.....the most dominate dog as a pup may well grow up to be a bit more submissive then you would think (that is the case with my Damien) and a pup that was EXTREMELY submissive (that would be my Niki) might well grow up to surprise the crap out of you and BECOME dominate!! D was dominate as a pup,pretty laid back now..and Niki,well I picked her BECAUSE she was very submissive to Damien,which was wonderful because at that time he was still pretty dominate...as she gets older she is becoming extremely dominate..so much in fact that she is challanging D for the dom statues between the 2 of them Maybe,Jim would consider an older or 1 or 2 years old that maybe had come from a cat family?? not all dogs are strays,alot do have a history. 8. marca 2008, 13:05:49 Subjekt: Re: I need to call on your experience and knowledge anastasia: My numero uno priority is that they all get along,age is only a factor in regards to my thinking it help both dog and cats grow into eachother(so to speak)I will definitely be adopting from a shelter,I would be hypocritical otherwise,but it has to be the right match,I refuse to return it once it's brought into my home. srnity:Yes,smaller males sometimes seem to have a chip on their shoulders regarding size,but we compensate with big cars ,it's a Feudian thing I think8. marca 2008, 15:59:05 Subjekt: Re: I need to call on your experience and knowledge Jim Dandy: possibly you could bring your 2 kitties to the shelter to meet the dog?? 8. marca 2008, 16:32:57 Subjekt: Re: I need to call on your experience and knowledge anastasia: Jenn would be fine,but Molly literally goes catatonic outside my place.I think a natural environment is the best scenario.I may submit a few breeds to my guy at the humane society,if they pop up he could contact me 8. marca 2008, 16:35:40 Subjekt: Re: ..as she gets older she is becoming extremely dominate..so much in fact that she is challanging D for the dom statues between the 2 of them anastasia: That must be a fun argument to watch  Are spayed females generally more dominant than males in a group canine situation? Wow does mine get snippy with certain male dogs at parks, etc. if they don't give her her "space" sometimes But she's not like that with cats and others, maybe she knows of their ability to put their claws up? 8. marca 2008, 16:40:30 Subjekt: Re: ..as she gets older she is becoming extremely dominate..so much in fact that she is challanging D for the dom statues between the 2 of them srnity: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? 8. marca 2008, 16:45:13 Subjekt: Re: Yes,smaller males sometimes seem to have a chip on their shoulders regarding size,but we compensate with big cars Jim Dandy: You know where I live there are many, many women with BIG cars (trucks really) & they say it compensates for their aggressive nature Oh, and beagles are gorgeous, my neighbor has one, I LOVE her bark (howl), it's like she's singing  She doesn't care for any other dogs tho (we've got lots living here), she's more a loner. She's not crazy about people either, but maybe it's just a trust issue (she's rescued), and she lets me pet her, she growls softly when I do (lol) but she lets me I think she just likes the attention she gets from the couple that has her the best - very sweet dog, lots of emotion in her 8. marca 2008, 16:53:08 Subjekt: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? Jim Dandy: Wow, I'm definately out on a limb on that one  While I'm thinking of it, I know someone who has a male "Pug" and cats too and they get along just peachy ( I think the cats were there first, maybe that's the trick to harmony, and the pug is a total sweetheart, I don't think he's got a mean bone in his body) 8. marca 2008, 17:00:03 Subjekt: Re: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? srnity: I work with someone who is a pug nut,she has 3.I think it's a breed you either love or.......I frankly an not fond of the constant snout licking of both bull dogs and pugs,almost like they have a never ending cold LOL 8. marca 2008, 17:20:50 Subjekt: Re: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? Jim Dandy: Yeahhhhh, that'd get to me too There's a limit to "dog drool"  9. marca 2008, 01:14:57 Subjekt: Re: ..as she gets older she is becoming extremely dominate..so much in fact that she is challanging D for the dom statues between the 2 of them srnity: I have never owned a female dog in my adult life,spayed or otherwise,lol. I DO know tho that just because a dog shows certain things as a pup,does not mean they develope into adulthood with the same traites.The very first time Niki was introduced to Damien,she licked his mouth first thing...I thought..OH GOODIE!!!! she IS a submissive type!! well,let me tell you that Lil Miss Niki is NOT that way anymore,lol!! She is in her "teenage years" right now (she is 8 months old) and I think just like any teen,they want to test the limits with the family....I know she is testing them with me right now..she is going through her I THINK I hear my Mom calling for me but I will run the other way and keep playing anyways stage,lol.Oh curse the day that Damien hit that phase!! They both bring me such great joy tho!! Niki also does this new thing,she bounces everywhere that she goes...like tigger,lol!! She doesn't walk,not run,not even that famous GSD trot..she bounces!! TO CUTE!!! 9. marca 2008, 06:29:55  I have two female dogs and they are as different as night and day. My ShihTzu is a very laid back gentle little lady but has a temper when she doesn't get what she wants as fast as she thinks she should. Then I have a MinPin that is hyper and very possessive. As for getting along with cats, they are not good examples because they have never been around them. They like to chase them and play but would hurt a kitten because they play too rough. Guess they think they are like those squeaky toys I buy them. If I had gotten them and a kitten all as babies, they would have learned to get along together. I think they are like people and get a bit grumpy and hard to get along with as they get older. 9. marca 2008, 13:35:55 Subjekt: Re: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? Jim Dandy: Hi, I had two females cats, both were rescues which I had had for years. I decided to have a dog rescue exactly the same as youre thinking of doing now, & had the exact same concerns & worries you have too as my cats were both so happy. Well a dog came along, hes was a rough collie (like lassie only black & white) I brought him home on trial for a week to see if he would get on with my cats. I thought if it doesnt work I just simply cant have him as I didnt want to upset my cats who had been through alot previously. I desperately hoped all would be well though. Anyway, the first day or so there was alot of hissing and bushy tails from my cats & he was scared of them! He was such a big laid back dog, had been badly neglected & was in a very bad state...it took a few months to get him back in shape. He had previously lived with a cat aswell. Thankfully they all eventually got on a treat & it was a happy family. My one cat used to snuggle up next to him! I think the main points that really helped us, that have been mentioned in previous posts, were: 1 He was older & very laid back not boisterous in the house 2 He had lived with a cat before 3 The cats were there first Hope this helps a little :o) 9. marca 2008, 16:40:38 Subjekt: Re: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? Ewe: I think the "being older" would help,don't you?? Puppies are SOOOO rambuntious while growing up that even not meaning to,they may go after a cat in a way that a cat is unsure of.Again..alot goes back to pray drive,pups just want to chase things that move,ans espeacially when they hit the "teenage years" 9. marca 2008, 18:02:53 Subjekt: Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no - This Is One Picture That I Just Can't Post...how horrible... Cooked dog paws at a CXhinese restaurant. A French association of animal lovers on Monday launched a petition aimed at encouraging China to ban, by the Summer Olympics, the killing of dogs for food. (afp.com/toru yamanaka) 9. marca 2008, 22:03:00 Subjekt: Re: that's another issue I need clarified,which sex would match best with two female cats? Ewe: Very helpful,as anastasia mentioned in a prior post,puppies can be unpredictable long term.I should be looking for a dog who has a past living with cats,reassurance too.I also think it wise to give the girls about 3 months in the new place to themselves. 12. marca 2008, 02:57:11 Subjekt: THIS Is Why I LOVE Dogs :) http://d.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/rids/20080211/i/r2153762520.jpg?x=400&y=298&sig=ltxQRK0WouYgsQA_kLIFeQ--

Glenn and other members of his hunting party caught the hounds and led them away after they cornered the jaguar. The male jaguar, which weighed around 200 pounds, left the site at a slow trot unharmed. Jaguars are extremely rare in the United States, and Glenn is believed to be the only person to have encountered and photographed one in the wild. Photograph taken February 20, 2006. 30. marca 2008, 23:46:19 Subjekt: Re: W ...O... W ... how incredible to see :) srnity: Am I wrong thinking that Jag could have had a hound lunch if he/she desired? 30. marca 2008, 23:54:04 Subjekt: Re: W ...O... W ... how incredible to see :) Jim Dandy: He was probably in shock just as much as the humans were Or maybe he's sampled dog before and not so much his thing 30. marca 2008, 23:55:43 Subjekt: This Dog Is Awesome Too :) Zmenené užívateľom srnity (9. mája 2008, 21:09:35) One-and-a-half-year old Chihuahua dog 'Conan' prays with his owner and chief priest Joei Yoshikuni during a morning pray at the Shuri-Kannondo temple in Okinawa islands, southwestern Japan, Monday, March 24, 2008 30. marca 2008, 23:59:08 Subjekt: Re: W ...O... W ... how incredible to see :) srnity: That presents an interesting question.I wonder if a hound will track regardless of the animal being a threat,and clearly much more powerful 31. marca 2008, 00:24:46 Subjekt: Re: W ...O... W ... how incredible to see :) Jim Dandy: That is a good question - anybody know? Even tho I live in the woods, I don't hunt (or hurt) any living things (bugs included). I'll ask at work in the morn, hunters galore there, they even close the schools for the first day of the season, somebody'll know  31. marca 2008, 01:05:22 Subjekt: Re: W ...O... W ... how incredible to see :) Jim Dandy: When dogs get the scent of something,they will track it untill they either loose the scent or find WHAT is giving the scent. 31. marca 2008, 01:44:47 Subjekt: Re: W ...O... W ... how incredible to see :) anastasia: ok,so when they determine the scent originates from their personal armageddon,how do they respond? 31. marca 2008, 03:01:15 I don't think the dog DOES know that whatever is at the end of that scet might cause them harm them...why would they? When a police K-9 is on the track of a criminal...they are not thinking,oh man,this nut job may have a gun and shot me...they just track,period 1. apríla 2008, 21:54:01 Subjekt: Re: anastasia: Animals don't sense danger? 1. apríla 2008, 22:45:45 Subjekt: Re: Jim Dandy: It's said they do,and I personally believe that they do,but again,if the dog is "working" or doing a job..again,the K-9 unit tracking the criminal,thats the bottom line for it..to do it's job.Hunting dogs track prey,thats their job.Thats what they were bred to do.Dogs in Georgia track and hunt down boar,even tho the wild pig could kill them,they still track and find it. 1. apríla 2008, 22:57:59 Subjekt: Re: anastasia: True,and they will defend to the death,anyone who's seen OLD YELLER knows that ;-) 2. apríla 2008, 03:16:45 Subjekt: Re: Jim Dandy: OMG,lol...my niece and I were just talking about that movie...I have heard what the ending is and I won't watch it,HA!! Can you believe I am 35 and I have never even seen that movie!?? 13. apríla 2008, 00:14:10 Subjekt: Matchbox 20 Won't Play Because of Some Bull Matchbox 20 is canceling a show at Cheyenne Frontier Days which bills itself as the world's biggest outdoor rodeo, over their newfound concern for the animals involved. Did they not know what a rodeo was? Lead singer Rob Thomas and his wife, Marisol, posted this statement on the band's website: "We ask that (fans) please understand that it would be impossible for us to put ourselves in the position of making money from what we believe to be the mistreatment of animals." But get this: the band is still scheduled to perform at the North Dakota State Fair,which also includes rodeo events. They'll figure it out eventually. 13. apríla 2008, 02:12:56 Subjekt: Good for them  Maybe they'll cancel their NoDak State Fair appearance, too. 13. apríla 2008, 03:37:59 Subjekt: Re: Matchbox 20 Won't Play Because of Some Bull Jim Dandy: I hate rodeos..think they are a terrible thing..I hope they cancel their other dates as well. 25. apríla 2008, 03:30:52 Subjekt: Spring post Well,now that spring has FINALLY sent winter on it's way...it's time for me to make my spring time post about the baby animlas again!! I would just like to remind everyone that when you see a baby animal,and he is squacking and carrying on like a fruitloop,PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE do NOT assume that he has been abandoned/orphaned...chances are that his Mom is somewhere off on the sidelines watching the baby.Animals do not "coddle" their young as long as we think they do...they often let them venture out to experiment in the real world fairly early,but ALWAYS under a watchful eye....Unless you SEE that the mother is dead...hit on the side of the road,for example...DO NOT PICK UP THE BABIES TO HELP THEM!!! There are not to many things more heartbreaking then listening to a mother wailing for her young that has been "helped away" by some human!!! 25. apríla 2008, 21:54:17 Subjekt: His is too cute for words 27. apríla 2008, 01:59:52 Subjekt: Re: His is too cute for words Jim Dandy: Awwwwwww, how cute 27. apríla 2008, 02:07:14 Subjekt: Re: Spring post anastasia: I've made that mistake - and learned my lesson - with baby birds that blew out of nests in thunderstorms and then the kids wound up bringing them home - not good  Two questions tho - why do all groundhogs seem to be HUGE (and everywhere lately, like that arcade game where you "bop" em on the head)? And why are possums SO ugly (they really truly have a face that only their mother could love)? 27. apríla 2008, 02:15:00 Subjekt: And This Pic Makes It Look Kind of Sweet - These Guys Aren't Very Huggable (IMO)...lol 27. apríla 2008, 02:24:09 Subjekt: Now For Some Doggie Pics To Make You Say "Awww" Zmenené užívateľom srnity (9. mája 2008, 21:08:31) Hungarian Puli sheep dog, Fee, jumps over a hurdle during a preview for a pedigree dog show in Dortmund A Westhighland Terrier dog named 'Molly', tries to jump over a bar during photo call Five cloned dogs, all sharing the same name: 'Toppy', a combination of the words 'tomorrow' and 'puppy', look at a ball during their exercise at Defector Dog Training Center in Incheon, west of Seoul, South Korea, Thursday, April 24, 2008.
