Yea he is definitely getting there...big boy

[huskylord]

My boy being a big suck

[aop]

How much does he weight? Looks like pretty big lab.

[huskylord]

He's just over 90lbs. The camera angle adds to the size factor.

[aop]

I had our family dog Ressu at my apartment for a bit over a week while my parents were traveling aboard. I weighed him and he was ~93 lb and he looks much smaller.



On a side note I need to get a new phone sense this Sony Xperia M4 Aqua has ****ing atrocious camera.

[switchAMG]

He does look like a big boy

[Cyko]

I believe the 90lbs weight. My boy is a rott / lab mix, about 93lbs, and looks about the same size. Takes up the whole back seat of my car when he lays down

Yea Norman is tipping the scales about 175lbs right now, should pack on another 25lbs of muscle this year.

Geez that's a big lab husky!


The breed of my dog isn't recognised outside of Australia afaik. It's called a Kelpie and were bred from collies and dingos. Exceptionally smart dogs and very loyal to one owner, to the point they are often overly protective and a bit snappy or nippy. I wouldn't let my Kelpie near children tbh. They don't seem to socialise with other dogs too much either.

Anyway, my girl again.. Marley!

Guard those steaks!!!

Great looking dog. My girl is a Kelpie / Australian Shepherd mix. Kinda looks like this dog:



She's smart as a whip and won't let ANYONE within 50ft of us without barking at them Also doesn't like other dogs too much except for my other dog. They're best buddies.

[demo]

Hey nice looking dog bro. I wonder what else it has mixed with it (there's no such thing as an Australian shepherd here, it's an American breed my mate curio told me).


Check out this type of Kelpie, called a silver fawn. Silver hair and blue eyes. I've tried so hard to get one but always seem to miss out when litters are born, they are rare and would have to travel interstate.

[Cyko]

Thanks man. She's a great girl (got returned to the shelter 3 times before we adopted her). She needs a firm hand and lots of attention, but is the most snuggly and affectionate dog I've ever had the pleasure of sharing my life with.

Dunno about where the Australian Shepherd originated from, but she's def mixed with it (when we give her a close-er haircut the pattern of the shepherd really comes out).

As for the silver fawn...

[demo]

Yeh I'm not surprised she ended up at the pound a few times, they can be a real handful. Most people don't know what they're getting themselves into when getting a Kelpie, they're just so energetic and in need of constant brain stimulation in a typical backyard. They really should be on open plains chasing animals. I had to extend my fence by a meter because she climbs it like a cat and kept getting out, but lol only to wait on the front door mat for me to get home from work.

I've had 3 Kelpies now. Two were black and tan and the other was pure red. Love them, so smart. I taught my last one to fetch my pack of smokes

Had one of these until my ex and I split, awesome doggie!

[aop]

I wonder if Ressu should be put on a diet (again).



Time to leave after my parents came back from abroad. He has pretty extreme fear of car rides (especially after the older dog, Jaki, died) for some reason so someone has to be on the backseat to comfort him during road trips.

[barleystout]

This guy turned 1 on the 23rd of Feb. Picture below is from around Nov. of last year. Will try to get a more recent one.

[Munkus]

Best buds at the beach.

[demo]

Noice one Munky! You too Barley and aop.




So I stepped outside and almost walked into this bad boy.. er girl.

I have no idea what kind of spider it is but it looks like it could chew my face off. It's almost as big as my hand but looks smaller in the photos I seriously didn't want to get much closer, I'm guessing those colours mean 'Stay the f_ck away'. Web is really thick too, like trawling fishing line.



Ok, just look casual to start off with babe. Look up. Nice, nice.


Now growl like a Tiger! Rawwwrrr. That's it, perfect shot babe!




Last one bade. Be sexy. Now angry. Now more sexy. Flick your hair! You're a natural, great shot!

That's a wrap everybody!

[Silent-Runner]

now hug him/her/it and kiss

[demo]

I tried to but it ate my hat.

Looks smaller in the pics, if I get the courage I'll put a pen next to it for reference, I'd say it's about that long.



edit/ Ha I tried but no chance I'm going near that thing. It's about an inch longer than a BIC pen.

[bittermann]

No way man...I watched Arachnophobia.

[Munkus]

Because Australia.

You know what needs to be done...

[MasterGoa]

Spider webs ignite quite well...

Just sayin'

[logical]

Did you just leave the spider there?

[demo]

Yeh because its web spans across my side path from the house to the fence. I figured I'd leave it there as a nasty surprise for any intruders in the night. Bet they didn't see that coming.

That and I didn't want to go near the bloody thing. I don't know what sort of spider it is, Ozzie might know. It looks deadly to me and might be able to move really fast or jump like some others can.. I can see myself going over with a shoe to kill it, only to be outmaneuvered and bitten on the back of my neck while I'm still trying to figure out where it got to..
I've been outmaneuvered by a big ass spider before. It was an intense dual in my bedroom where I was genuinely caught off guard by how quick and smart the thing was. But much like the Thunderdome in MadMax, two men enter, one man leaves... Yeh son.

[logical]

Get a long stick and take down its web. Theres no way I would just leave it there cause I could be caught slipping and run right into that **** at some point.

[demo]

Well it's serving a purpose for me atm. My side path is a blind spot and I've scared someone off from there before.. I think it was someone I knew tbh. Anyway, if someone jumps the gate they're in for a surprise. It's in the perfect position as that's exactly where one would climb over due to fence rails on the other side, making it easy to climb. It's the weak point of my fortress, but now it's reinforced and manned 24/7.

I'll take a photo of it's web tomorrow, it's freaking huge like a bunch of clothes lines crossing each other and spanning a few meters. Thick like fishing line too. I've never seen one before and actually had a hard time breaking it and getting it off me when I walked into its 'outer perimeter'. No, this ones a keeper. It's a freaking man trap out there.


I get the feeling that big sack on it is about to explode with thousands of babies though..

It's an Orb Weaver of some subtype. Not sure which, but I recognize the body shape and the typical web structure size.

A client of mine has about seven of them strung along the side of her house between the fence and the roof. You just walk underneath them and pray that that isn't the moment one of them decides to go kamikaze on your head.

[aop]

Could it be Nephila edulis?

Our last chicken, Hen Solo, sitting on some fertilized eggs that were given too us. One more week and we should have some baby chicks running around

That was that time your whole block burned down?

Good job!

[Destroy]

Ultasound (see shaved belly) done last week cause he just had no energy and was throwing up. He has dozens of cancer in many lymph nodes. He is slowly dying.
He is on meds to make him comfortable but I dread the day soon where he will no longer cope and we have to put him to sleep.

He has his good days and bad days. Some days he eats and can walk well, other days he refuses to eat and walks with a limp. He ALWAYS use to run, now he only walks.
