Dogs

All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.

Rules (Will be refined later on).

  1. Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.

  2. No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
    Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.

  3. All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.

  4. Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.

  5. Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

Someone didn't assemble him correctly

Dög in Swedish means "sufficed" or "good enough", so while the assembly might not be correct, it's good enough.

I was wondering if it will mean something in some other language. Mission accomplished!

Nice! One learns something new every day.

For the linguistics nerds, "dög" is past tense of "duga."
Det får duga - It will have to do.
Det duger - It is good enough.
Det dög - It was sufficient.

This is what happens if you use WinRar without a licence :)

Where the heck is its head? 😳

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There is no head… only balls. (Just kidding, it’s under the front legs if you look carefully)

Sometimes you just need a little air cooling and aren't too picky about how you get it.
