Quoted: Concur. Before I got my mastiff, I looked into bernese pretty heavily. Their short life spans and health issues turned me away.

She's a farmer, and routinely helps out the local Mennonites. Brought someone to the hospital a couple weeks ago, thinks that might have exposed her. But, does anyone actually know anyone personally that has died from this? Not a "report of" or gov't numbers. I can account for quite a few dead folks.

Quoted: I'm pretty sure my wife had it late last year also. They told her it was the flu, but they didn't actually run a test. She had a nasty cough in her chest, high fever, and she lost her sense of smell and taste. She was down for about 2 weeks, and still has a lingering cough. View Quote I had something similar at the beginning of Feb but I was never running a fever. Lost my voice and all taste and smell. Bad cough and sinus pressure and drainage. |

Quoted: You know you have my phone # right? View Quote Yes. I do. That was the last ride I took in NJ/NY/PA before I moved to FL. Showed up at the Ex's house at 7:00AM and collected my Kiddo.

Quoted: A keeshond could work if you don’t mind shedding View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: No. Quite frankly, I want our last dog. She would lay around the house, and then she would hear a leaf fall in the backyard and she would race out there barking her fool head off to keep her pack safe. Sounds like you need an English Mastiff. They were bred to do exactly what you describe. Lay around and then sound the alarm when "threats" appeared. "A mouse farted 3 miles away! Come fix it! Now now now!" A mastiff is about 5x larger than what I have in mind. I like the 40 - 60 lb sized doggies. Small enough they don't eat you out of house and home, and big enough burglars won't fuck with them. A keeshond could work if you don’t mind shedding Attached File |

View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Wife said an Aussie was a hard no from her I keep telling you: Ridgeback, although Canaan Dog would work well. But it might be too close to Valentine’s appearance for her. Canaan says they don't like a sedentary lifestyle. We're homebodies. If you’re truly pretty sedentary, that changes a few things. And pretty much eliminates most of the herding breeds entirely. We hang out at the house most of the time. The wife and I do go for walks when it's nice outside. Having a dog again would at least push me to not make excuses for not walking. A lot of the sighthounds can work well with that. A corgi or basset hound would be fine. Some of the long and low terriers could be fine. Or you could go to the other end of the spectrum and look at Bullmastiffs, Leonbergers, Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs, and other large and lazy types. Wife wants a GSD. That’s exactly opposite of what you’ve described. I know |

Many people live with it for decades, no problem. It still counts as an ‘underlying condition’ when considering beer flu. Beer flu still caused the death, not complications from diabetes. |
