jazz1 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 not being rude but that is a bad place to build a dog house, your kitchen will constantly smell bad due to dog piss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Well we were planning on house training them to be fair All the other rooms are carpeted and we spend a lot of time in the kitchen and it opens directly into the garden and we could spare 5' x 5'.5'' as the kitchen is big. So really it was the best choice. ALso it's not a dog house it's their sleeping area as the house is open plan and they need to learn where they are allowed and where they are not. Where would you have them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where would you have them? its ok for a while i suppose but best bet is to build a brick hut and the back of your garden, thats what we have done with our two dogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I like the name Diogi that's cool, would you pronounce it with emphasis on the 'O' (DiOgi), or the 'G' (like spelling 'dog')? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psymon Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Hehe, Just seen this thread, both beautiful dogs. I had 2 dobby's male and female, both sadly passed on now. Keep an eye on him, mine destroyed loads the first month or to, washing machine knobs and the entire back of a new sofa. lol. They were lucky to be alive on that day .. Best of luck, you made me jealous now Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted April 8, 2006 Author Share Posted April 8, 2006 Sorry!!! Been a bit occupied. Unbelievable- car broke down on the way to get them! Stopped at the services went to start it... BANG. Battery exploded. Called AA, membership had expired so it cost me £200 to get them out and to fit a battery. Nice. Stig (ridgeback) slept all the way home, didn't wee, poo or vomit bless him. Raptor (dobe) whined and barked and weed and pooed like a good un. Made a lot of noise when we left them to have our dinner for a good 40 mins then put them to bed later and they didn't make a sound all night, not a peep, in fact we woke them up this morning for breakfast! Been playing all day, been to the vets, been out in the car they are both great travellers not at all sick, Stig just lies flat out and snores and eventually Raptor joins him. Just downloading some pics now!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Gorgeous !! Hope you have many years of fun out of them, they look cracking dogs.

dandan Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 How are things going with the dogs Rosie? I ask as I'm considering getting a ridgeback myself...How is he, is he well behaved? How is he with other dogs and children? Any chance of seeing some more pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 He is amazing. I wish we had got 2 of them with hindsight!! He's just about fully grown now and absolutely gorgeous. He's chilled out at home but always up for long walks, bags of charactor, intellegent etc etc. He's fine with everything. Almost too enthusiastic, he tends to want to lick babies/kids in the face and his tail is a crazy whip. Same with dogs, he's all over them but he's still a baby so that excitement will calm down more. Here are some of the most recent ones I have http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=118366 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 awwwwwww, my first dog was a ridgeback, called Red. He was the most intelligent dog I've ever known. I miss him Not anything like my mental Dalmation Rotweiller(sp?) cross I have now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
