Not a Briard.
Quick history, 1st dog for myself & my wife, BK (before kids) (30 years ago) - Border Collie bought off a farm for $50. The 3 since then have been rescues / pound puppies. This time around due to grand kids / son in laws, allergies, etc we went $$ for hypoallergenic.
Black dog is Newfoundlander / Standard poodle mix (Newfypoo) - I think the runt of the litter, now ~80 lbs, great temperament, ~15 months old now. Fur is mostly straight with some curl / wave.
White dog is Great Pyrenees / Standard Poodle mix (Pyradoodle) - giant of litter, now ~85 lbs at 8 months with looong legs. He's a bit of an idiot and his fur is alot curlier than he was at ~4 - 5 months or so in photo.
Live in Cincinnati, but travel a lot for work (industrial)
Shoot Canon, hobby, but have some nice lenses. Upgraded to full frame when grandkids arrived 6 years ago, also have two dogs (one now just over a year, one just under - one of my current favorites below). Also take photos of flashlights (yes I have a problem there).
I registered after reading a few threads and it appears to be a nice community, some forums (particularly photography) can be pretty rough. I haven't read the rules yet - that is my next spot to go.
