sunadmin Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I had a black lab shop dog. He went everywhere I did, noise or chaos didn't bother him. Wasn't interested in getting into things.. Great dog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Eric. Posted January 11, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Ugh, dogs. The most overrated animal ever. I don't know what could possibly make a dog "the best" in a shop. Mine just lays around and farts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdwerker Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Boxer, she only goes to the shop occasionally , because she is a bit too rambunctious . I had another boxer that was a great shop dog. She would jump off the loading dock, go do her business, jump back up and lay down on her blanket.

Freddie Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 My mini dachshund, Emmitt is basically like my son, my little precious baby man. He loves to run into my shop whenever I open the door. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisphr Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Not a Vizsla, unless your shop is air conditioned and contains a king size memory foam mattress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwacker Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I agree with Eric and believe Boston terriers are responsible for global warming. My cat a great evil little thing. We found her in a dumpster only a few days old in a plastic bag. She is pure evil we have given her away a few times and they alway bring her back. Every morning she kills her own meal. Mice are a snack squirrels and crows are her preferred diet. She can pluck a crow and down it in about 30 minutes. She brings her kill into the shop and sits behind the drum sander eats the sleeps the rest of the day. The neighbors Doberman had puppies she went into the dogs pen grabbed a fresh puppy and brought it home for breakfast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodger. Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 PUG! Though mostly, he just sleeps. He is quite elderly now, at about 11 years. He is a great friend and companion, but he does not really like the shop as much as the sofa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom King Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 You breed dogs and horses Tom? You're a busy man! We quit breeding horses back when the economy went South. My wife's job is the dogs. We have a long waiting list over a year ahead, and three stud dogs that stay busy. We have 15 in the house with us, but they are odorless and non-shedding, and they have their own wing of the house too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mds2 Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Originally I had a rat terrier, but now she's more of a couch terrier. Doesn't care for the noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Crawford Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Chocolate Lab - problem when she goes swimming in the creek and the comes back in and shakes the water off, usually I spot her soon enough so work does not get wet. She leaves when I run the planer. Sometimes walks by me and farts when table saw or router table is running. It happens often enough it is hard to imagine she is not giving me a "turn that damned thing off" message. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orbb Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 My dogs see my shop (1/2 of a two car garage) as a warm, dry place to go the bathroom if it is wet or snowy outside. As a result, they are banned from my side of the garage. Also, they have long hair (spaniels) which tends to pick up chips and shavings at will for later dropping in the house. They are incompatible with the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim0625 Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 I'm with you Freddie! Bella the weiner dog. What's cute is someone walks by on the sidewalk and she gives that shrill bark with all the hair standing up down the middle of her back!

Byrdie Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 This was my dog and the picture taken in the shop. The green cabinet behind him is an antique workbench I bought which currently serves as the stand for my drill press and spindle sander. He was an Australian Cattle Dog - commonly called a blue heeler. He's been gone 5 years now and miss him terribly but getting another dog isn't in the cards right now. Only four legged "pets" I'm left with are a horse and a pony. They aren't allowed in the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
