Wow, they really do look a lot like some Tam lines!
I wonder what their character and temperaments are?

Tatzel

I think most people with alcoholic beverages are unsafe to their environment and other people. That doesn't count fo everyone though and doesn't mean no one should be allowed to drink alcohol or should be restrained with handcuffs if they are drunk. The same goes for dogs. Some dogs should not be le...

Tatzel

Really cute! I love ow the black snout fades out now

He reminds me a lot of Wylie!

Tatzel

It's pretty evident to me that Sheba is a product of boredom and lack of exercise. Simply having a big yard is not enough. Then they complain about her digging up the flowers, destroying the sprinklers and pots - well, look at their backyard, it's blank, bland and boring - a pit of dirt. There is no...

Tatzel

Yeah I saw this episode, so much BS. I agree that Ramses is the only one who seems to have any wolf content at all, even though probably very low. Anyone else thought the wolfdog expert's way of dealing with a supposed wolfdog (Sheba) was dangerous and misplaced? @ grabbing her at neckfur, holding h...

Tatzel

Very cute! Looking forward to see her dveelop

Tatzel

Also please don't try to get her rehomed via Blustag. They have rehomed Bear before and did an awful job at finding a suitable place for him

Tatzel

They're both so great looking!

Tatzel

I would really love to see some ANCD being added, looking at Yarrow, he looks very wolfy in build and facial shape even though he's solid black. Noque has a more square-ish muzzle, but his color and build are both splendid. I still also think that a long muzzled type of collie would benefit the bree...

Tatzel

The thing about correction/punishment based training is that as soon as the punishment disappears from over the dog's head, they will go back into shenanigans, because there really is nothing that stops them from doing so, and because pulling is self-rewarding and reeinforcing behaviour. Here is how...

Tatzel

I remember having seen a blue merle wolfdog somewhere here in the forum before... I thought it was curious!

Tatzel

Perna canaliculus (green-lipp mussel shell) powder supposely really helps to grease up the joints and reduce pain. I'm putting it on my dog's regular food everyday since he also got mild to mid-severe HD... you should test first if your dog can eat and digest it, I heard there are dogs who get sick ...

Tatzel

He's really one of a kind ind the Tam breed! So neat!
Thanks for the update

Tatzel

The one on the very left is going to turn out huge! That puppy is already bigger than it's littermates and the paws are enormous!
Great litter, I'm looking forward to see more pictures of them

Tatzel

I think I said it before but I love how her black faded out into this wolf grey, she looks really good! I wonder if she'll gain more mass, right now she's leggy and lean, which looks good in it's own regard but not very Tam-ish. Looking forward to see more pictures of her in the future, thanks for s...

Tatzel

How do you exercise her? JUst a walk and being off leash might not be enough for her if she's got a very high level of energy. Going out with the bike might work for her where she has to run a lot, or even pulling a cart or sled. Since there is husky and mal also in the Tamaskan breed, they have a t...

Tatzel

I feel bad for animals that have to live in a zoo where other animals are allowed, it must be so stressful :( I think that really depends? These wolves don't look stressed, and neither does the oran utahn. This might even be the highlight of their day, considering how boring it can be behind bars w...

Tatzel

France is allowing wolf hunts in places where sheep are at risk from the carnivore's growing numbers GET SOME DOGS; ACTUALLY HERD YOUR SHEEP. PROBLEM SOLVED. Seriously, you don't leave a buffet out in the open and then compain the next day when people stole the precious hummertails over night, derp...

Tatzel

Heyyy, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what line Ki is from? The owner lives in Ontario and claims their Tam is a wolfdog. Now I'm wondering if their dog is from an actual TDR breeder or if it's a dog from RPK or Ratliff? Here's the link to the Instagram with many pictures: http://www.iphoneogra...

Tatzel

The GSD is strong in her, but you can tell there is something else in her, too

Lovely pack you have!
I would love to hear from you how you think Tamaskans and Czech differ in temperament and upbringing. Are czech more complicated to handle? Or are they both more or less the same?

Tatzel

I tried ordering the Thundershirt last year.. but I never got it which sucked big time :( That blows :c did you tell the support? I think they'd try to send you a replacement. Also so far the Thundershirt honestly has done nothing for us... I don't feel like he is more calm outside on walks now, bu...

Google is your friend

I'll post some pictures with Monobi wearing them when I'll get one. The next thing on my Stupidly Spoiled Doge (TM) list is the Thundershirt though. The boots will have to wait.

Tatzel

I didn't know that about Ruffwear! I actually only read good things so far.
Is musher's secret a spray?

And yeah I'm going relatively short walks with Monobi now so his footsies can recover. Certainly no cycling for a while, especially not on asphalt.

Tatzel

I haven't found a topic about this yet, just a sentence or two in a thread about general paw care, so I thought I was gonna make a seperate one. Does anyone of you use boots for your dog(s)? I went cycling with Monobi on Saturday for an hour and since we had to go through half the city before we cam...

Tatzel

Small update; when I moved to Hamburg I had to let go of some furniture, since I moved from a single flat to a single room in a shared flat. Monobi's orginal dog bed was too big to be kept, and it also smelled horrible even after stuffing everything into the washing machine, so I tossed it out. He'd...

Tatzel

Eeee, cute! The 4th one from above is my favourite! Looking forward to see them develop

Tatzel

Not a fan per se, but I like some of their songs

Tatzel

They certainly come off a little holier-than-you, although it could be just the cold, hard text that gives off the vibe. Just that they say "verdict: not a wolf" instead of "conclusion: most likely not a wolf". I mean 'verdict', really? Like they're some higher trial that knows it all with absolute ...

Tatzel

I actually laughed at the "we hold shows" part and then the "our dogs won all of these shows" part. It's like "I'm holding a cooking contest and I won that cooking contest". It's not something I would call an achievement or indicator on how great of a breeders they are if they won at a contest they ...

Tatzel

I think he looks like a very bright black grey?
At least he reminds me more of a faded out black grey than a wolf grey or red grey.

Tatzel

Threema supposely is really good and really secure. There is also telegram, although I have not used any of those, and neither WhatsApp

Tatzel

ALL HAIL LORD HELIX (formerly helix fossil) I've been watching this on and off since I became aware of it (which was shortly after they beat Misty and trying to get past notorious THE LEDGE route). Democracy would work like a charm if it wasn't for the start9 trolls and the ridicolous lag. I kinda l...

Tatzel

Very tragic... I agree that the parents were stupid to leave the dog unsupervised with the baby, but I also feel sorry for them. A lot of people with dogs do not know that dogs and kids should not be unsupervised together. Some people even believe in the myth that dogs treat kids and babies like (th...

Tatzel

Thanks Tatzel! We actually use that interrupter but didn't think about the different ways you can practise it like the video shows (like the toy distraction) so will def work on this! You're welcome! Yes, you need to generalize and 'prove' the attention noise by gradually increasing the difficulty ...

Tatzel

Conditioning your dog to a positive interrupter might work well for you!

Tatzel

Anyone know the reasons why Blustag wanted to get rid of him? Either way good riddance - for Timba!

Great to see him being with the Münsterlands again.

Tatzel

Do you know if his sister who was separated from him at an early age also has these issues, too? I do not know, and I guess Eugenia does not have the time to look at each dog individually like this, or has the money to get them all x-rayed. Unfortunately his sister also had puppies this year... aga...

Tatzel

Re: perna mussle powder; I do not know wether it makes Monobi better (given that he has low and mid HD), but I had to deal with hip pains recently and since I started taking perna mussle powder myself, the pain vanished.

Tatzel

The color faded out nicely!
I love that the shoulderpatch is still very dakr!
Would love to see more pictures

what a pretty dog!

Tatzel

Fees can vary here in Germany depending on the community. Usually it's cheaper on the countryside and more expensive in the cities. ... I have not once paid the fees because I do not agree with the idea behind it of making dog owners pay for nothing, while cat owners don't pay a cent yet their free ...

Tatzel

I will never not be in total awe with him! His overall looks and his fur color, also his stunning bright yellow eyes!

Tatzel

I'd be interessted to know how you feel like your dogs compare in regards to level of energy, demand and biddance.

From the looks of it Jasper seems to be very laid back and not as energetic as Onyx, but that might only seem that way because Onyx is still so young?
Would love to hear your opinion!

Tatzel

Wow, so regal looking! They are truely a fascinating breed!

Tatzel

I'm feeding Monobi canned wet food, the name is Rinti. It's good quality and makes his fur shiny and soft. I used to feed BARF before but since we moved and thus have lost my supplier I went back to canned food. Additionally I add a teaspoon of salmon oil and half a teaspoon of perna mussle powder (...

Tatzel

I really dig these photos!
You've got some mad skills there making shots just at the right time, the composition is always very lovely, too! And so are your dogs

Tatzel

It's also not uncommon in Germany to make contracts for shelter dogs or dogs from animal welfare that forbid the new owner to resell or give the dog away without permission from the shelter/welfare/previous owners. I assume the same can be done with pedigree dogs. In case such a contract was made, i...

Tatzel

I suspect bribery

Tatzel

Tex, a friendly advice; try to get health care for your future pup, I'm afraid you might need it. Please also get into contact with people from the "Tamaskan Truth 2.0" facebook page; they are all owners of RPK puppies, and they can confirm you that their vet costs reach into the thousands and might...

I wondered what has become of the charges against Kevin today and went on google to look only to find this: http://www.salisburypost.com/article/20130907/SP01/130909774/ Charges against Right Puppy Kennel owner dismissed, daughter receives probation [...] But court records said there was insufficien...

That's so great! Congratulations!!
