Dog in the Tractor

[rockinbbar]

Guess he thought I was leaving without him.

He jumped flat footed up into the cab as I was getting the hours from a project.

There's not enough room for me and a dog that weighs over 100 pounds in the cab of that tractor...

Does your dog wanna ride?

 

[Gee Ray]

You should’ve bought a tractor with a buddy seat.

Mine likes to ride on the mule but will follow me all day when Im on the tractor.
She also knows I keep dog treats in the mule glovebox.

 

[Rockbadchild]

yeah a buddy seat would be nice

If I could fit a dog seat she would be with me every time.

That's great! Yeah, they know where you hide the goodies...

Mine do the Mule too, but they think we are going to shoot feral hogs. They are pretty good hog dogs once you teach them some.

Mine's got the buddy seat... But my dog sure won't fit.

Make sure they cannot find the keys... My 100+ pound lap dog would ride all day long, with or without me.

Where do you sit?

Where do you sit?

if I had a buddy seat that's where I would sit.

I suppose you need the biggest tractor seat you can find and then I hope your arms are long enough to reach around the dog to steer.

Put him to work!

Giant Schnauzers or Standard? We have had all 3 sizes. Currently have a black standard. Fantastic dogs.... or should I say family members....

I have 5. Four are giants, and my standard thinks he's a giant..

The standard is the salt and pepper one. He's big for his breed. Weighs 76 pounds, and the smallest of the pack.

Wow! He is big! Our standard only weighs 35 lbs. Great dogs. We only had 2 giants at the same time..... that was enough to keep up with..... let alone 4....

I want to get another standard, but the wifey says no-- only one at a time now.....

This is Max. He was the litter runt.

Max looks like a good dog!

My hat's off to the farm/ranch canine's loyalty. Really gets to me. One popular dog around here is the Australian Shepherd.

Besides the comments posted here, there is a close-by restaurant that is frequented by the local farmers and ranchers. At lunch time, regardless the time of the year, the dog will be in or on the truck asleep, patiently awaiting the owner's return.

There was an ad recently in a local newspaper that had a younger one for sale. In the ad they mentioned that the potential buyer needed to keep the dog busy and if they couldn't its not the dog for them. That "keep the dog busy" is why I never had one as I couldn't.

Queensland Sshepards and Heelers here along with a Borgie, an Airdale mix, a Golden, and a little Patterdale Terrier. All herding dogs need a job. If you don't give them one they will find one and you may not like what they find.
They are golf cart fiends.
