Beautiful dog. Already looks like he knows what to do. Is he going to be biting bad guys or guiding good guys?

Great looking pup! At least his ears are not as big as the Poobahs, so he doesn't have to carry that stigma around with him!

Both.... He is my new 'demo' dog and will have to learn basically everything I can teach a dog, so he will be doing Service Dog stuff ( Mobility Assistance) and Police K9 stuff- Narcotics, tracking, and Apprehension. My current demo dog is ten years old, by the time this guy is trained, she will be ready to retire...

He is pure. Working stock from breeder carrying on old country tradition( only Schutzhund titled dogs are allowed to breed) His father was from the Czech Republic. He has a whole lot better pedigree than I do! Perfect retirement job is teaching college- in my case Canine Stuff for the first ever Anthrozoology Program.

George George: question...Ive never raised one of these from a baby but when this little dude gets what I consider a harsh correction from either me or one of the older dogs, he lights up like a Xmas tree with that " Oh, boy we get to play rough now!" expression Is that normal? as I said, he's not a hard dog... Should come in handy later though....

Thanks George, I figured its just part of the "on/off" switch...I'm all about the positive reinforcement angle but the little dude totaled out my computer wiring 4 times in a row, so he got about a six foot toss across the floor...something that would have shut my other dogs down...he thought it was fuggin' GREAT! Same deal last night when tried stealing an ice cube from my older dog, she hammered him and he got ten minutes worth of the waggin' tail zoomies! Its odd to see the personality surface, he has no use for a ball, but likes the Kong ( +1 ) and he is REALLY liking the puppy tug made out of french linen bite suit material ( +2 )

Ingwe: Looks like you got a good one. A little hard headed is not so bad as long as he gets the "Pack Master" strait. I had a h*ll of a time getting that one through to my GSP. Best bird dog I have ever had though!

Its odd to see the personality surface, he has no use for a ball, but likes the Kong ( +1 ) and he is REALLY liking the puppy tug made out of french linen bite suit material ( +2 ) FWIW, I never introduced Gipsy to a tennis ball. It's a Kong or nothing where that is concerned (I haven't seen a school yet that puts half-Kongs on the bottom of their chairs!). In fact, one of the guys dropped a tennis ball at the "end" of a track and she walked right over it and continued tracking past. I keep a minimum of two "suit tugs" on hand at all times as well. That's my "secret weapon" for polishing obedience. George

" Ya got anything better...?" They always want more/better! One Kong isn't enough, you damn sure better have the second in the air as soon as they obey the "out" or it's pissyville! I love the coloration, though basic black is where it's at.... George

Basic black goes with everything... his mother was black... Got lots of kongs around and I ordinarily only use one..Training from a baby allows you to develop a good 'out' and so far, this guy is good on the 'out' ...puberty may change that, and I know how to run the Two Squeakies...if need be...

NH K9,
Yep, that looks familiar. It was very cool to see them work. The overall speed to overtake and then launch to pull down the rider was awesome to see. Thanks for the pics.

inger My Red Doberman bitch was like that all her life you swatted or thumped her firmly and she thought you were playing, scold her and she just welted and spent all day if necessary to get back in your good graces. Best dog I ever had much smarter that I. Still miss her. Cheers NC
