I'm with Wid on this one. We've been giving our Dachshund Diamond dog food for 4 and a half years. Sorry to hear about the loss of your dog Mike. Glad to hear that you have a new puppy on the way. Don't forget to post pics when you get her.

Thanks everyone for the condolences and the excellent suggestions for good dog food.

Our first "child" was a Golden that lived for 15 years. He had cancer that eventually caused complete loss of motor control and we had to put him down. Talk about breaking down and crying like a baby - anyway we switched up and now have a German Short Haired Pointer. Like a Doberman, I like the short hair and the clean lines on the breed. Levi is extremely active and we are careful to feed him portions that support his active nature without gaining weight.....Just something to think about no matter which food you select........Rob

This thread needs pictures! Here's our much-loved Sunshine, aka Sunny (9.5 years old now).

Great looking dog Peter. We get to visit our puppy in a couple weeks when it turns 4 weeks old, the kids are really excited.
I don't have any of our own pictures but here is the litter with our puppy Leia. Leia and brothers

Argon, help!

We have an 11YO GSP. She is the tensest dog in the world. I doubt I can teach her new tricks, but jeebus, some days...

I used to think Goldens were smart - and my first dog was welll....my first dog. Agreed the GSP's are intense - and we bought Levi from hunting stock as opposed to show stock. THere were times when he was a teenager that, if I could have caught him, I would have killed him. Having said all that - Levi is, hands down, the smartest dog I have ever seen. Show him something twice and he's got it. Looks damn spectacular when he is jumping for a frisbee too. I am 5'8" and I think that on a good day, he could clear me by a good 2-3". He is good with kids as well.

I thought "beer" was always the answer?

I have - regrettably - come to the conclusion that beer is bad for both me and the dog. Beer: There's a temporary solution!
