    I think Amy (wolf_Q) was right about Taggart!! (pix included)

    I took Taggart to our family vet last night for a follow up. One of the techs said she thought he might be mixed with Great Pyrenees. Then the vet came in and she said the same thing. Now, I did not ask anyone's opinion on what they thought his breed was. They all just told me this. On the way out another tech said the same thing!!!
    So we were calling him an Australian Pyrenees. And now I must go look up that breed and learn more about them.
    Oh, and while I was talking to the doctor Taggart just zonked out on the floor. And when the doc got down on the floor with him he just rolled over with his head in her lap for a belly rub. That is complete opposite of Zoee. She is a nervous wreck at the vets.
    I'm sure being in a shelter for who knows how long made him more comfortable with that environment.
    And the doctor said she thinks he might get as big as 50lbs. Whew! I was worried I might end up with a dog weighing almost 100lbs!! Now I can handle TWO dogs weighing about 100lbs together. LOL
    The doctor kept saying what a good dog I had. She never said anything like that about Zoee. hee hee She said Zoee was very pretty, of course.

    Ok, I figured I'd better post some pictures of him again. I apologize that most of his pictures look exactly the same. But I promise you these are different. I just took these this weekend.


    This is the normal scene in the office while I'm on the computer.


    The next few are very similar to some pictures I have of Zoee. Same poses.




    A slight head tilt. LOL


    Zoee says - I'm NOT looking at him!!!


    Then she says - What? A treat! Ok, I'll look.


    That's all. Thanks for looking!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I just looked up Great Pyrenees. And I've always pronounced it (and so did the vet staff last night) Peer-Rah-Knees. On one of the sites I just found there is a sound clip and it's pronounced Pie-Rah-Knees.
    Interesting.

    Yes I think you can pronounce it both ways. I have always said Pie-ra-nee-s

    He really is so darn cute. Well if the doctor thinks he will only be around 50 pounds that isn't bad at all (that is what a male aussie would be anyway, right?), and he should be the perfect size for playing with his big sister.
    Oh, and I always pronounced it Peer-a-nees, too.
