they're new? You're gonna have your hands full! They are cool looking dogs good luck!

Congrats pete!!!!!! I hope you have a crate for them to sleep in tonight....

No matter how much they DO NOT let them out

Very cool. 

Take good care of those little guys.

little gals. lucy and barrett. yeah.. but they are cute a a button :)

MY POSSE, FIG THIEVES;

Are they pups?  Watch them when you move trees out in the Spring for chewing the trees back, it happened to me last year and with the new one this fall before wrapping them.

Congratulations, they're adorable.

rafed, 

i need to get some tree rat pelts so the girls can seek 'em x) 

Can already personality in their eyes. you are in for a fun time.

What kind of dogs are those?

Luke, they are mutt. Not sure what mix. My wife and kids saw them playing outside and went to look at them. The owner gave them to my kids. Come spring they are getting some fig trees from Santa :)

Very cute. I hope they don't develop a taste for fruit. Mine love all fruits and veggies. My future house will have a separate gardening space and doggy space :)

OMG they are freakin cute!!!!  Love the floppy ears ;)

I love that they're a matching set. I bet they are really full of energy. Time for chew toys by the dozen.

god.. they are handful. two sisters from same litter. so different from each other in personality. lucy is more dominant, but she is also more cautious. barrett is happy go lucky. i got up at 5:30 to get to work and they saw me. they were so happy to see another living being around them. try to take them out to do their business, but it was raining outside. i brought them in to think of something to do and they just let it go.. urgh.. had to clean up before coming to work. so cute. i didn't know they can spend money like that. now the sales person at petco knows me by my first name... sigh..

Very cool ..Pete..
I also have two guards and figs taster at my back yard.

zaltun, what are they? they look mean enough most will avoid the area.. lol

Hey Bullett those are an adorable pair . I grew up with dogs and have a pair at home a Lhasa mix and a Akc Yorkshire Terrier whose grandfather according to the AKC documentation papaerwork was some sort of first in its class champion winner - probably most pain in the backside cause his grandson Romeo -ours is a real doozie !
Yours appear to have a terrier mix in them . They could be a combination of Cairn Terrier
with Scottish Terrier mixed in taking on its black coat and who knows what else but thats just a guess.

martin, apparently, the father is a pure bred schnauzer and the mother is a border collie mix. so they are some sort of working dogs i guess. they love being outside. when we take them out for walk, they are busy looking for things and sniffing everything on the ground. the one sitting down in the picture is lucy. she's the dominant one. the standing one is barrett. barrett won't go anywhere unless lucy is there to lead. but barrett is much more outgoing. lucy is very cautious. i'll have to take them to vet this thursday to check them out. being dominant, i would think lucy would be more perky, but she's always careful, check things out before doing anything.

from what i heard, they were born about 3-4 months ago. the owner of the dogs abandoned the mother and the pups. the mother and 3 puppies more or less roam around the neighborhood for awhile. the house right next to us love animals and they took the mother and puppies in. they gave away one of the puppies and lucy and barrett are the two that were left. my wife and kids saw them and decided that we can give them good a good home. my sons were determined to adapt dogs rather then buying them since they saw one of those tv ad about how the abandoned animials are abused. so it worked out good. they have good home, and i have two cute gals watching my figs. tho, i'm already training them not to go  into my fig room. lol

Well thats a great story Pete !
They wont be able to reach your figs in bigger pots but the small ones may be a different matter
as your aware pups love to play and get into mischief, they will pull on any tree tags also !

We came home one day from Dinner and had a laugh when we saw trail of toliet paper down a flight of stairs leading into the dining room floor and around a chair leg.

Pete....

Now, they will own you.  Beautiful dogs.  Enjoy!

Puppies! Puppies!  Two cuties.  The terrible twosome  : )  At some point they will probably push you to the brink of giving them up, but don't.  Let them get at least a year old and they'll turn out just fine.  I got my dog in my avatar from the pound when she was 6 months old.  She nearly drove me crazy and I almost took her back but two people at work encouraged me to keep her until she got a little older.  Best advice I ever received, she is now the best dog I've ever had.

Hi Pete
its called "Binturong" / local name  or bear cat /Civet.
Your Dogs are so cute.

Welcome to my world. I was thinking today about how much extra money I'd have every month if I didn't have pets... good thing I love them so much.

I tried to take one of my girls for a walk at lunch today and it was raining. I had to practically pry her out of her kennel with a crow bar. Rain makes them melt. (Don't tell them we live in Seattle!)

We taught them the phrase 'get busy' to go potty. We engrained it in them so much that they'll practically pee on command. Comes in handy when it's freezing and miserable out.
