These are the neighbors dogs that come by my shop almost daily to hang out, get the best bottled water, treats, some loving and shade.
It's sad that there not taken better care of there infested with ticks and obviously fleas because there's worms coming out there butt. I pulled 30 plus swollen ticks off the black one before she bolted and a bunch off the brown and cute bearded puppy.
I used to have the shop doors open and they would stroll in and say hi lookin for some goodies but no more, the brown one has marked all over the place, my new boxes, my vacuum, in the bathroom you name it, so no more of that.
You should see them work as a pack hunting rabbits, the brown one flushes out the rabbits and the the others in hot pursuit, there's a boat mold the rabbits hide under and the dogs work both sides at the same time, really cool to see.

Well, at least they don't appear to be starving. Maybe you could accidently spill some frontline or advantix on them?

I was thinking of an over the counter de worming pill is cheaper but they could use the frontline.
I think he's a wet dirty brown lab the hair isn't really curly at least not all over but what do I know, I've been wrong once before.
I was going to ask what kind the little bearded girl is shes my favorite, I'd take her in a second.

I think the liver colored one is a chesapeake. The hair looks coarse over the back, something like a ridgeback pattern. Some of them are like that, especially in the summer. The coarser hair is kind of greasy.
It would be cool to find out if they are a "family", related. The bearded one is super cute.

Betty I can tell you that they all belong to the neighbor so they live together, usually visit as a 4 pack and hunt together, I'm not sure if that's what you meant? There is 1 more but he never cares to escape.
I would take the bearded cutie in a heartbeat, she is so cool but there all neat & pretty mellow dogs for 0 training and do as they please.

They look so sweet, I always wish I could be more sanguine about these type of dogs, because for all I know they are perfectly happy.
Do they seem happy enough to you Joe, or are they miserable and looking for help?
I always want to scoop dogs like this up and do something but maybe I react in the way that is too knee jerk, and the actuality is they are fine, and don't know any different.

Tracy beside the ticks.fleas & worms and having to stay outside, 0 training and not having the lovin I give they seem fine. Now that I said that it sounds like not fine, I think the owners have a "it's just a dog" view but I don't know.
This is the same guy I posted about some time ago that left his dead dog on the road side all day after I informed him where he was, I finally brought his dog to him to bury.
They really love cruising around hunting rabbits & squirrels and hanging at the shop taking a nap but that could have something to do with bottled water, treats, attention?

For the life of me, I can't figure out why someone would even have a dog(s), when this is the way they care so poorly for them.
These dogs are lucky to have you Joe.
