Carly just can't get enough of the A/C. She will sit there half-asleep for long periods of time just sniffing away.:nuts: My other dog could not care less. Both like sniffing out an open window.

Pete, My 7 year old beagle, Ivan will do that every time weather is to ruff to have his shotgun window down. Still no a/c in mj, so he he spends a lot of time hanging out the window. Your ? reminded me that when he was about 8mos. old riding in back of my cj5, he saw another dog in a yard, & jumped. Leash held, collar didn't. Only going about 30 mph, but he he had roadrash from his scrotum to his snout. Still loves fresh air tho. Carly looks like a dog my daughter has called Scout. Beautiful pooch.

My families beagles do this. While I am at college, I have "dog withdrawls" from not seeing them for so long. Now you made me think of them and the bloodhound we have and I'm missing them already. :roll:

 

Anyway, yes they do sniff the vents. My Dad and I took his old 2wd Toyota out rabbit hunting back when I was younger and all I can remember was having two dogs in my lap that were either smudging up the windows right before we got to the hunting brush or very content sniffing all the air coming from the vents. The only thing we could figure was that all of the smells from outside were getting blown in and it was "easy smelling" for them to do.

 

Here are the dogs I spoke of above. We were given Oak a few years ago from a co-worker of my Dad's after we lost Cruise's mother. Cruise is from a bloodline we have bred in the past and she is the last of them, the 3rd generation. And Abby is my "Mom's dog" cause neither my Dad, Brother or I wanted a Bloodhound, but she has grown on us since and we all love her just the same. All female and Pure breds.

World's Biggest Dog!

This is AMAZING!!!

 

Hercules was recently awarded the honorable distinction of World's Biggest

Dog. Hercules is an English Mastiff and who has a 38 inch neck and

weights 282 pounds. With "paws the size of softballs" the three-year old monster

is far larger and heavier than his breed's standard 200 lbs. limit.

Hercules' owner Mr. Flynn says that Hercules weight is natural and not induced by a bizarre

diet. " I fed him normal food and he just grew and grew and grew..."

not in MY house!

 

haha, a friend of mine works for a farmer/tractor repair guy who keeps two of those at a time...when one dies (7 year lifespan is normal), he replaces it with a puppy....they're spread about 3 years apart.

 

but they're his guard dogs...funny thing is that they're MEAN to everyone who doesn't belong there, but I'm not afraid of them so they don't bother me...not even if i come in when they're closed or anything.

 

standing on their rear feet, they're easily a foot taller than me...and i'm 6'2"

 

they eat lots and crap more...horse apples are NOTHING compared to these guys' crap...

Wow... We just had this discussion 2 weeks ago on the local forum. What you are seeing in that picture is no more than a crappy photoshop. Look at the lawn to the left of the dog, and under him. It's blurry, dead giveaway to somebody trying to "blur" the lawn in where the dog no longer is.

 

here's the real story of herculese:

He won the title in 2001 .. here's the CNN transcript.

CNN SATURDAY MORNING NEWS

World's Largest Dog Weighs 284

Aired June 9, 2001 - 07:26 ET

 

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

MILES O'BRIEN, CNN ANCHOR: They say dog owners and their -- dogs and their owners, I should say, often look alike. Here is a case in point, a 270-pound Massachusetts man owns a mastiff that outweighs him.

 

Eileen Curran of CNN affiliate WBZ looks at the pooch who eats by the bucketful.

 

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

 

EILEEN CURRAN, WBZ REPORTER (voice-over): When John Flynn of Peabody walks his dog, cars slow down and heads turn. Flynn's a big guy, his dog, Hercules, even bigger.

 

JOHN FLYNN, DOG OWNER: I weigh probably 270.

 

CURRAN (on camera): So your dog weighs more than you.

 

FLYNN: Yes, yes, he does. Yes.

 

CURRAN (voice-over): At last check this 3-year-old English mastiff tipped the scales at 284 pounds. Hercules came to the attention of the "Guinness Book of World Records" thanks to a 9-year- old friend of the family, David Delauri. David was flipping through his edition of the book when he saw a dog that looked like Hercules.

 

DAVID DELAURI, FAMILY FRIEND: And then I came to this page and I was, like, oh, I thought, Wendy's dog was the biggest dog in America.

 

CURRAN: The mastiff in the book weighed 286 pounds and was the heaviest living dog. Flynn called the Guinness people and learned the dog had died. And after submitting documentation, he was told Hercules now qualified as the heaviest living dog.

 

(on camera): So what do you feed a 280-plus-pound dog? Some might say, anything he wants. But actually John feeds Hercules about a pound of dry dog food a day, and this is his dog dish.

 

(voice-over): The vet says Hercules is healthy but shouldn't gain any more weight. Flynn says he'll walk him more often and just try to avoid causing traffic jams.

 

(END VIDEOTAPE)

 

O'BRIEN: That tale brought to us by Eileen Curran of our Boston affiliate WBZ.
