Here is our family of pets (all of which are rescues):

Peter loves hippies but HATES :uzi::flame:MICHAEL VICK!!!:evil::evil:

Bob showin off...:roll:

Peter is my K9 soul mate, even though he cant hear a word I say we communicate through body language and even SIGN LANGUAGE...he is the smartest dog ever and I cant help but wonder if its because he dose not have to face the distractions sounds present, and his focus is that much sharper for it! Unfortunately he was in the Humane Society from the time he was a puppy until we came and rescued him 2 years later!!! They told me he was going to be VERY different from other dogs but with a face/story like that I had to give him a shot.....and he is the GOLDEN BOY and I'm so glad all those people passed on him so we could be together. One word for him.....WINNING!!!!!:wink:

Does your dog need lots of exercise?

My Vizsla literally bounces off the walls if he doesn't get enough exercise.. I'm sure it is the same with all those cattle dogs and shepards. My trainer sent me this link, not sure if we'd really ever train Zeus to the treadmill but it's pretty funny "do your laundry while your dog runs 3 miles" It would be nice during those below freezing mornings!

My Labradoodle has crazy amounts of energy. We used to have playdates with our neighbor's two Chocolate labs but she would run them so ragged that they don't seem to want to do as often.
She is hard to ski with too cause she darts back and forth in front of me a lot and I'm afraid of running her over and cutting her up with my skis.

My chocolate lab is completely insane, haha. They have so much energy, but I think they get that from their owner (me). For those of you have met met you probably know how fast I talk, a mile a minute :cool:

Ari the wonder dog....

....a wonder we haven't killed her yet.

:lol:

I can relate to from_the_NEK's problem. I can't ski with my dog. She has no self preservation instinct and lacks basic spatial awareness. She charges through life head on and doesn't let anything get in her way. No way I could ski with her, sadly. :-?

Yup, I go through the same thing with Chilly all the time. But I still take her skiing and riding with me. With 2 people we leap-frog so one person can ski without interference (a good BC practice anyway). When it's just her and me I toss a stick in the opposite direction and take off. That usually keeps her behind me. Although we do still have our close calls...

Ari looks like she's scheming something in the first photo... Very nice looking dog though!

Where do you skiing with your dog? I've gone mountain biking with my dog but I can up and downhill on my bike :)

It is just a local hike up / ski down thing?

Yeah, BC only. I don't think the resorts would dig a big dog chasing skiers all over the hill. Plus, she'd be a pain on the lift:-?. Although the tram.....
