bigbrowndog Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 Yes, he's Rhodesian, and the best dog ever!!! I think I'll keep him. Trapr
GentlemanJim Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I bet Scout had a nice B-day I hope he got a nice T-bone..or Porterhouse Jim
G-ManBart Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I expected him to make it to 10, and have always said I was going to look at every year after that as a gift. That's a great way to look at things. My big black dog made it to 14yrs and I can't say how lucky I was for all those years! So, from all of us, happy birthday Scout! Bart, Laurie, Webster and Daisy
Colt1991 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Monica and i also wish scout a happy b-day
lmccrock Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Birthday? What kind of cake did he get? Lee
Larry White Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Birthday? What kind of cake did he get? Lee Trapr & Scout were at the shop yesterday. Traper said the cake was 2 cheeseburgers and tater tots. Poor old Scout is unloved , mistreated and leads a hellish life. Wish more people treated thier dogs like that.-----------Larry

Scout454 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Hey Scout! Happy belated! Mary sends her best too!
chp5 Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 (edited) Great looking dog Trapr! How big do the RB's get? Edited February 23, 2008 by chp5
chp5 Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Pets are greatHappy Birthday Yup. nothing beats a dog. Happy Barkday!!! a stick can! woof Scout - what is the dog in your avitar? A merle something . . . . Check out my merle Great Dane puppy in my avitar. 5.5 months old and 81 pounds today at the vet
bigbrowndog Posted February 23, 2008 Author Posted February 23, 2008 CHP5, there are 2 size standards for RB, the American and the African, American is 75-85 pounds, African is 95-105. Scouts grandpop is a genuine African dog, from S. Africa and he has weighted 105ish for the last 8 yrs. he was pretty much 10pounds for every month old he was until he was one year old. then I tried to keep him at what appeared to be his healthiest weight, 100-108. he still behaves like a puppy and gets around very well for his age and the fact that he does have hip problems, however the fact that he is not overweight and very muscular, has helped keep the problem from causing him discomfort or pain.
