I have a boxer and a basset hound. Love them both! Sam,the basset, is 12 years young and just a wonderful companion/lap dog. Nira, the boxer, is the protective dog. I've had people ask me if she was a pit just from her bark. But she's the most playful dog I've ever owned and the sweetest. She's so good with my kids.

That is a BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL GOLDEN! What was his story?
The golden is actually the first dog we got from a breeder (he's a pure-bread). We had to put our black lab down, so he was the replacement I guess. Every other dog has been from a shelter or from some other situation.
The beagle was badly abused and dumped into the shelter. Took him a while to calm down and allow people to touch him but he's my little buddy now.

Too bad they have so many medical issues and do not have the longest life span

I know they have bad problems with their hips. What other issues are they prone to? My wife and I absolutely love Berners and Swissies (I'm more partial to the Swissies cause of the short coat) and we've said that if we ever go for a pure bred it would be either one of them or a full blood Ridgeback.

ok so my neighbors are going to be getting rid of their english bulldog of about a year old. they are getting rid of him because it was a gift for the kids but they dont play with him and the parents both work full time, so no one plays with him or pays any attention to him. when i started this thread i wanted a st bernard, but for several years my second choice was an english bulldog.... but then found out about all the health problems associated with them... the neighbors paid like $3k for it because its from some grade A champion show bloodline or something and neither parents have had any health problems. They are asking for a rehoming fee but its no where near what they paid, they just want it to go to a good home and with someone they know so they can ask how hes doing etc.
should i get it?

Please research the breed first. There is nothing worse than someone grabbing a bully for the wrong reasons. They are the only breed I have owned in my adult life (12yrs) and would not have anything else. I would be glad to answer any questions you may have.
