Post a picture of your 4 legged geocaching partner.

[+Cav Scout]

Here's my geocaching partner with a toy he found in a cache. Hes a little kid and still has a lot to learn.

 

 

[+joranda]

So that is what he looks like.

This is my black lab waiting to do our other favorite past time.

I think it far better that someone start a new thread than to necro those 3 old dead threads.

[+uxorious]

The one in front standing is Luna and although she's a mix breed, she definitely has Anatolian Shepherd in her. The one laying in the back is Zeus. He is a Belgian Malinois.

How do you get the larger size pictures into your link. This is the first time I've tried putting a picture in this forum.

I put the picture into photobucket, then put the link in the post. Is there a better way to do it??

[Scamp]

This is Penny. She was cleaned up for her obedience school graduation that we had just attended; she's generally a whole lot dirtier.

 

 

She's a little bitty dog, but she does an amazing job of keeping up with me when we're out hiking; she can go for miles and miles, and still have energy to spare when I'm ready to call it a day.

[+team moxiepup]

Here's Moxie, checking out a large ammo can. We wouldn't trade her for all the swag in the world though!

Abbie, who loves to go hiking and geocaching.

 

 

Dixie, who has only been going "off-road" for a few months. This was her first time on a trail with me.

You all have some great looking dogs!

Nice Malinois. I used to have one that I trained in Schutzhund, and later sold to be a drug dog.

I don't have a caching dog right now, but All41's "promised" that we'll get one as soon as we can find an inexpensive one. My daughter and I are hyperventilating until we get a dog!

 

I want one exactly like this sweetie. Her name's Stella, and I live vicariously through her mommy and daddy's photos:

This is Charlie... a Fox-Terrier.

 

As you can see he's pretty good at CITO

Have you tried Petfinder.com? It links to animal shelters, and you can enter whatever breed, gender, age or size you are looking for. Some shelters charge more than others, but most charge far less than a breeder would. We found Moxie through Petfinder. She originally came from West Virginia, but her shelter ran a transport up to NJ and we met them there. There are a lot of great dogs out there looking for homes.

[+linuxxpert]

This is my English-Bulldog, Oliver... not good for long hikes, but he loves the easy runs in the local parks. I also have a black lab, she loves to geocache and swim in the local creeks . They are both getting older though..

Thank you for the advice. I look at petfinder almost every day. My problem is that I've got my heart set on an adult Great Dane without the cropped ears (though there's a very small chance that I'd take a golden lab/retriever mix). Not a lot of those out there. I'm keeping an eye on a nearby Great Dane shelter, except they charge $200 and up, whereas our local shelter is $75. I've told my family that if God wants us to have one, He'll plop one into our laps.

[+Cav Scout]

He's a black tri Aussie Shepherd. Looks just like his father. Blue eyes run in his family.

 

You all have some great looking dogs!

Thanks! Yours is a cutie too! Beautiful eye! Is he a Bernese Mountain dog?

[+JadedOne]

Here's Tipper, he is terrified in a car, but not too bad on the trails.

What sort of dog is Lilly? She looks a little like the puppies we used to have, that were Plott Hounds (I couldn't find a good sideways picture of mine):

Catahoula Leopard but she is of the Brindle variety. She is very quick and springy and is a "talker".

[knowschad]

My avitar is my dog, Chili. He found a cache for me last weekend in the snow. I just walked up to where he was sniffing and pulled the ammo box out from under the snow. Unfortunately, he's getting old and crippled up and can't get out an run like he used to. But let me tell you this: he has peed on MANY trees in his time!

PS: The glasses are just an affectation he uses to appear as wise as he really is. He is fully aware that most humans think that a dog is just a dog, so he asked me one day to get him a pair of glasses (which, of course!, I didn't even think to argue with). He really doesn't wear them out in the field, but he does like to put them on when he is going to meet with a bunch of sophisticates.

Cool. Our Plott Hounds were a bit less energetic, especially our male. Very sweet and attentive.

Read this helpful post about it in the forum faq section: linky

[+Icyjane]

Here's my big boy, Scout. We got him at the pound, so breed is questionable, definitely some shepard in there. Caching trips with him are getting shorter, as he is aging and just can't handle too much hill climbing...wait, am I talking about the dog or myself, hmm?!

[+desmo13]

here are my two

 

 

[+uk89camaro]

Great looking dogs, and some fantastic locations..here's my two, Jasper & Molly.

 

[+the_hugos]

Our two:

 

Kiddo

 

Quentin

 

They are both from the shelter. If anyone has guesses on what they are mixed with I would love to hear them. We haven't been able to figure it out.

[+phstars]

This is Marley the GeoDog. He had knee surgery so he can't go on the really long ones anymore, but he loves going on the short ones!

[+Ambrosia]

Kiddo

 

Quentin

Just some ideas:

 

Most likely some Border Collie, especially Quentin. Kiddo has an interesting curved tail, but there's several breeds that could cause that I suppose (a couple off the top of my head are Malamutes and Akitas)

 

It's possible they could also have Heeler in them, or the universal mixed dog part of Black Lab.

 

I'm sure that there's others here that know much more about dog breeds, I'm just guessing (except about Quentin having some Border Collie (and possibly Kiddo), I'm pretty sure about that).

She's a little stinker-- always tries to take the bows out as soon as they're in unless she's distracted.
