Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| My guess, at first was black lab/pitt mix, but upon my second guess and googling before I said anything, I think she is a pure bred Blue Lacy, her body structure and the white chest appears to be common with Blue Lacy's.
Great pics, I'm glad Keno and her can be buddies! She is one nice looking non husky dog, lol. |

| After googling what a Blue Lacy was, lol, she seems spot on for one in looks and the temperament from what I read. She's definitely an intense dog, more than is good to be around the kids that they have and they often won't let the kids play with the dog. Curious how people like them ended up with a potential Texas state dog. She is a sweetheart. When she was a puppy we though greyhound/pitt mix. She's changed a lot in the last year.
My dad has a pure Weimaraner and some of the derp-like expressions on Spooky's face fit with my dad's dog to a tee. _________________ |

| Lol, that's why I did a google search, why is there a Texas state dog in Mo? But yup, she appears to be that. I've seen plenty around here, although they are in back of pick ups and never seen their white chest. Her face, ears and that dark blue coloring made me take a second guess, then the chest. Are Weimaraner's considered working dogs? Like here the black labs and blue lacy's are often used as working (bird dogs and hog dogs), just wondering? I also find it odd that working dogs such as the lab and lacy have floppy ears when they depend on hearing so much for their work(besides their eyes and nose), any ideas? |

| Heidi is a bird dog and considered a working dog. She depends on her nose and eyes. We refer to them as sight hounds such as grey hounds. _________________ |

| Weims are sporting dogs. I think the floppy ears probably protect the inner ear from getting debris in it while working in forest and brush as they often do. Their noses and eyes are much more useful senses for these conditions as well anyways. |

| Hips are doing great! Vet tech said if she hadn't read his file she wouldn't have noticed anything different about him. He used to limp and walk really strangely and he doesn't do hardly any of that now unless he's been really pushing himself. He will always have a little strange of a gate just because. He's up 12 pounds from where he was when we got him and is at his ideal weight. And no relapse in giardia, which I worried about since it's supposedly so easy to get again once he's already had it. He's just a normal healthy butthead. _________________ |
