Mobilia: Good morning, I explained everything in the first page but I'll all over again Murphy was a gift from my aunt whom i assisted in selling her pups (Murphy's litter mates) so she rewarded me with a male pup and i named him "Murphy" When i first got him, many people brought suggestions and opinions on how to raise him as well as the name to give him so i decided to choose Murphy lol Gustaf on the other hand is a locally bred working line German shepherd (Nigeria) and not imported, I got his name from my favorite Brazilian player called "GUSTAVO" So simba lived up to 15 years?? Wow that's nice to hear 1 Like |

vincentjk: How are you? Yes I think I need to re-read from the beginning. I just am so in love with dogs....once you look into those eyes....I tell you....it's all over for me. Their eyes speak to me like nothing else. I love those names...very unique and befitting for your dogs. Yes...Simba lived for 15 years!! Pomeranians have a life span between 14-18 years....on average. At full size, he only weighed 10 bs...so you can imagine that I was always holding him...until he wouldn't let me do it as he got older! However, many don't make it that long. We were extremely blessed....and he was such a faithful dog! He lived in the house and ate a specific dog food brand....but we did give him a slice of whole wheat bread every day as a treat which he loved! He actually got testicular cancer (which he had surgery for) and also developed cataracts in his eyes around 12 years of age. He ended up having kidney failure (at 15 years)...and passed I miss that dog so much.... 5 Likes 2 Shares |

emmayayodeji: Yes...I know! He was a very special and blessed dog... When he died, my dad didn't even want to call and tell me (I lived and worked in a different city)... It was my brother who called me...and I just had to hang up the phone and cry so long.... Pets become one of the family..... Ha....you just want to sell me a dog....lol. I saw your threads.... Very clever how you did that I will get the right dog (cause I'm not sure just yet what I want) when I am finally settled down...and can fully give it the proper attention that it needs... 2 Likes |
Re: Murphy the Boerboel and Gustaf the German shepherd by Nobody: 2:14am On Apr 04, 2018 |
vincentjk: Thank you for your condolences...I tell you it was so hard.... Losing a pet is like losing a loved one...that thing hurts to the core.... When you really love someone or something...and you lose it....I tell you.....no words to express the pain. He was Simba "The Triumphant Lion"....cause he looked like a miniature lion ( and of course named after The Lion King). Your dogs look really healthy and happy.....you clearly love them and I'm sure they know it. I am moving around a bit for now...so I haven't gotten a dog just yet. But I absolutely will get one when I settle down and can take care of it. I don't know if I want a "toy" dog like Simba was...or a gentle giant like Murphy and Gustav. I sometimes want a dog that I can hold....and if they weigh too much llke your dogs do....then I can't hold them in my arms or them sit in my lap... I like the idea of having a guard dog (which would mean that the dog would need to be large)...but I really want to hold him (I know I want a boy)...cause that means so much to me. But I just don't know. Any suggestions? P.S. I just saw that meat in the earlier pics above...and Wow...I almost don't want to know what it is.. Your dogs really eat wild meat...wow! That's amazing. 1 Like |

Mobilia: Good morning dear mobilia, Sorry for the late replies though I've been kinda busy lately Sorry for simba's death one more time loosing a dog really hurts (only dog lovers would understand this though) I see you really want to own a dog but maybe you don't have enough space/accomodation or something, so i advise you wait till you get a better free space then you can get yourself one probably a pup You kinda confused on the breed you should get lol, there are various (large)breeds of dogs today to choose to just suit your lifestyle like the boerboels, German shepherds, pitbulls, dobermans (though kinda rare here in Nigeria) then St Bernards or Maybe bullmasiffs, I personally don't like Caucasians while some toy breeds commonly seen includes; Maltese, Samoyed, Lhasa apsos and maybe other terrier mix sold by some kennels. You carrying a large breed dog will be good, I know it won't be a problem at all lol 1 Like |

OfficialEbiz: Bro i don't think one 300mg capsule will be sufficient for a gsd per day o The truth is that the content of the one i got is 300mg per capsule to it lools kinda "small" while their is a bigger capsule which is 1000mg per capsule with will do just fine if administered one everyday, I'll be getting the 1000mg capsule once this current one finishes I suggest you get the 1000mg so you will be giving it to your two gsd one capsule a day Buh blike say dah 1 go cost pass d 1 i bn buy o, I no juz knw bro |

**Throwback Thursday** These pix were taken around February shortly before Gustaf fell ill, a friend of mine who is also a hardcore dog lover visited us from a very far town about 50 miles away lol Proper introduction was done and in minutes the boys got along with my dude. He felt so happy taking pictures with Murphy and Gustaf 2 Likes 2 Shares

Gustaf exploring his territory, sometimes i don't just know the colour of this dog, some people say he's a black, grey or mixed colour... I personally know he's a sable colour gsd The changing of coat is as a result of shedding and other health problems he has faced so far

There's nothing I'll not see where these boys are o hiaa, I don't even know what to say though it's very funny to me but maybe they need a female to be among them Am not getting any female dog to avoid stories, I don't even have any plans to breed. I'm just a dog lover. 5 Likes
