Here is my pup, Hank. He'll be 3 in November, Pit/??? Mix, the nicest dog you'll ever meet. He's such a baby.



And here he is making the most of one of the blizzards we got last winter.

So this is Lala(aka lollipop) She is 5 years old and is a mix of a staffordshire terrier. She is the best dog in the world and is the best dog i have ever owned.

Im having an issue and was wondering if anybody else has had similar issues.
Every time we go to the lake and she swims in the lake, she gets a rash all over her body by the next day. She absolutely loves playing in the lake, and sometimes refuses to go when its time to go home. Before anyone mentions food allergy or anything similar, that has already been ruled out and we know for sure its specifically from her swimming in the lake.

Does anyone else have this issue , and if so what have you done to remedy it.

We rinse her immediately and bathe her and use a little olive or coconut oil to soothe and moisten her skin.

thanks for any help .


oh , here she is.

Do you take her to the same lake every time, has she had this problem in different water?

Oh and here is my bud, Toby. He's a mix of west highland/cairn terrier almost 6 years old. First small dog I've ever had, luckily he thinks he's about 90 pounds so it works out. As you can see he makes himself at home when I'm not there.

I got "Doomsday" for Father's Day last year. He is a Red heeler/German Shepard mix.










most of them are of him sleeping the only time he will stay still long enough for a picture

My buddy Dallas......

i love German shepherds and hope to get one. Dont see it happening anytime in the near future but a kid can always dream

This is "snivilous" (where the username came from), technically her name is Cheyenne. All black German Shepherd, will be 9 in November. My greatest friend I've ever had! Hoping to rent a house this summer/next semester so I can bring her to school with me.

Yes same lake, its the only water she's been in besides the hose and bath.

Okay, so is it Teddy Roosevelt lake?

I looked at a map and it looks like you have a rock Quarry just north of you, Arizona has a problem with Mercury it looks like. The rock quarry Would have elevated levels of this element. I would assume it's an environmental allergy or sensitivity and not food, because if it were food you'd think it would happen more often.

I've posted my little monsters here before, but I am always up for showing them off a little.

Kona is first. We adopted her as an abused half dachshund/half chihuahua, we think? Molly is a full dachshund. She likes rolling around on warm concrete. They are both awesome and the best part of my day is coming home from work at about midnight and having them attack my face when I get in bed.
