Ohh yes, please don't think he's like that all the time, perhaps only 50% of the time. In summer he's more like this in the conservatory:



Our postie quakes in his boots Im telling you

I was only asking if you had recently got your dogs I didn't at all say you had invented them :cool:

Why so defensive it was only a question

Sorry, the direction the thread's gone in has got me a little on edge!

I've had them two months and they're wonderful!

Pullip your dog is hilarious!

Do you have pictures of him standing on his paws or is that akin to spotting the Loch Ness monster in frequency?:p

Congratulations on your new doggies hope they are settling in well. I really didn't mean anything by asking I am just nosey.

There was a poster on here a bit ago who seemed to be following me round the board making nasty comments, so I might have overreacted a bit. Hope your GSD (hope I remembered right, the name's a clue!) is doing well too.

We took in a new dog earlier this year- rescue home was full of Staffies..

Ours is a cross... suppose likely got some Staff in her, maybe even Rottie as well given her colour ... home nor vet wasn't sure .. any guesses.




As an unknown quantity we are ultra careful around children.

He is seriously the laziest dog I have ever come across in my life. He'll cripple himself wanting a wee rather than go out in the rain. I can show you dozens of photos of him in exactly the same position - you'd just have to imagine the snores, which are exceptionally loud sometimes. My other dog (a Scottie) will follow me everywhere, Bob really just can't be bothered at all. Love him to bits but he is more of an ornament

Spot on Bugslet. Photos of him in any position other than on his back are as rare as hens teeth. Its a very very rare occasion his eyes are open. I used to think perhaps he was nocturnal but now I do know he's just bloomin lazy!!

What size is she? Rottie x GSD crosses seem to be cropping up more and more and can result in similar looking dogs. Mine is this cross but definately taken after the Rottie side more than GSD. Has a similar broad head, floppy ears and longer snout though


If you look up "GSD x Rottweiler" on google images, you'll see the mixed bunch that can result. The extend of the tan up onto the face doesn't look typically Rottie and the extension of it up the legs and on the chest looks more GSD to me - though other breeds have similar, e.g. Collie

Wouldn't say any need to take extra care because you don't know the breeds, just take the sensible precautions that any dog owner should take around children.
