Gold Dog

Couldn't help myself.  I have to tell everyone.  Ok, I spent some money to get a dog that has been bred to sniff out gold.  
The breed comes from Russia so my new dog has to be a gold finder
Apparently it's in the breed to find nuggets but, the only nuggets he is finding at the moment are the ones he's leaving on the back lawn
Meet Oscar the nugget sniffin dog.  Picked him up last Friday night from Perth airport, 3 months old and bloody heavy.
He eats beef and I get to eat a mrs macs pie    
He's an East European Shepherd.  Brilliant dog and he loves my detecting foot wear  
He doesn't like my Nissan, I might have to buy a Toyota tonka toy  

Congratulations Cliff, can we see his face.

What a handsome boy.

Here's his face with his donkey ears

well hello Oscar, 3 months old and look at the size of him. funny you say nugget finding dogs, I did read about gold sniffing dogs, trained to identify the sulphates released around oar bodies of rich mineralized ground where you find nuggets can be found, apparently . well if oscar finds nuggets then he is worth his weight in gold. good looking hound mate. He will keep you on your toes lol.

Hello Oscar, welcome to the forum. What a beautiful looking dog you are. I am sure as you become accustomed to the behaviour and travels of your owner, you will always be by his side and look after him and his gold. Bob & Joan

do you realize cliff with your dog being a nugget finding dog he will need a miners right and I hope you teach him to fill is holes

You will have to put a muzzle on him when you are out prospecting not for the dingo bait but to stop him from eating the gold nuggets.

Bout Bloody time Cliff.. Good looking Dog...

I've only seen photo's of his mum and dad and they are big dogs and they sent me a photo last night of his grand dad.
I think I've got my hands full with my dog with Miners Right number DAWG 001    

This is grand dad  

Beautiful, great pick Cliff.

Good dog Cliff .. Now about the lawn nuggets, my grandads neighbours dog used to visit his lawn & leave a few of those, & a spoon full of gravy on each one fixes that problem up.

If I keep my owner away from the bottle of whisky, I'll be ok

Well Oscar, as you grow you will learn you have to give a little to get your rewards in life and I am sure the doctor will allow your owner a little nip of whisky now and then providing he has a very nice bone for you and you can have a Gold Nugget necklace. ha.
