Once saw Gracy make a wild leap and grab a Road Runner that had just gone airborne. When younger, she would stalk them relentlessly, but now seems to have lost her taste for em'. When she caught one, all she'd leave was the feet.
When my resident Tortoise emerges and makes Summer forays, some funny animal theater invariably ensues
...she's never made any attempt to harm this Tortoise, and never fails to stop, sniff,and wag her tail when passing by it's burrow.

Boxer likes to go with me feeding and doing chores.
Old Boston that was a rescue has to stay outside or in kennel constantly because he will mark everything. Wasn't cut until we got him at over 7 years old.
Other Boston is good playmate for the first 2 dogs.
My old dog I lost 5 or 6 years ago was perhaps my "one dog" in my lifetime. Was extremely faithful to me. Awesome with all children, even the ones that are a PITA. Lived in a tiny town in eastern MT and was attending the high school homecoming football game. A dog is running around on the field as the half ends and while they are crowning the homecoming court. A buddy says, "hey, isn't that your dog out there?" I say, "can't be, he's at home tied up" I look out at the field and sure enough, there's my good dog having the time of his life playing around. Was the talk of the town for quite a while.

I've got two Catahoulas, an Aussie and a JRT. The Aussie (Finley) like to turn on the water faucets and start trouble any way he can. The JRT (Opie) beats up the two curs (Boo and Doo) all day long, but they seldom notice. He weighs 15# and they weigh 110#. Ha! Great names. I'd have named 'Boo', 'Voo' instead, though...

Hi Leighton,
I presume that you would have posted pictures had you got a dog for the new Rancho Kamo_gari...
Are you still considering, or did the better half's allergies rule out a dog?
Best wishes form northern Sweden,
John

If you walk your dog on pavement regularly the nails won't need trimming.
Dogs love chicken schit.

Ain't no blacktop back here in the hills. Currently a nesting pair of geese on the pond so Max has discovered Canadian Hors d'oeuvres. Simply decadent. Denny.

Funny how western dogs find poultry simply irresistible. Southeastern dogs have a weakness for goose and horse $hit, my old bitch dog loved it, she would almost stop running a rabbit for a big pile of horse $hit. Ate it up like toss salad! She made it her main course! She would eat it while I was beating her ass and wouldn't stop! funny as he11 now but would pizz me off when I was hunting. She died last year, probably from a equine disease of some type. My buddy Taver has 3 dogs and all three love horse $hit too. He has a small mixed breed that loves goose $hit but my dogs won't touch it.

dogs don't shop
dogs are always ready to go
dogs don't care about other dogs you've been with
the later you come home...the happier your dog is to see you
dogs like it when you leave stuff on the floor

My Chessie does his lessons and workouts and is well on the way to becoming a top notch gun dog. I'm very pleased with his progress. The Papillon sleeps on the end of our bed and is a dynamite watch dog. He tells us when it's bedtime, when it's time to get up. He's the boss of the house cats (who both outweigh him).

I have 2 beagles Mac the dumbest beagle in the world and his father William, honestly the most handsome beagle I have ever seen, everybody says it when they see him. My dogs are escape artists! I finally had to put an electric strand about 7 or 8 inches above the ground to keep them in. Every time they would get out they would come back cut up with weed seeds in their eyes and smelling like a corps! Why do dogs love to find dead stuff and just roll in it? So what does your dog/dogs do? escape, dig holes, chew your flip flops or house shoes?
Yes, also crap/piss on floors. Three dogs

That's a great looking bird dog. Does it hunt?

Wife's dog, Roxy, brings home the mail. When my dog Lenny isn't being a goof, he brings in the morning paper and retrieves tennis balls. I'm also teaching him to jump through a hula hoop on command and to catch a Frisbee.

Mac, the dumb one whined to go out side just now. I heard a loud yip and about 3 seconds later he was back at the door wanting in. My electric fence was worth the time money and effort. About the 7th time I have heard him, dam that dog is stupid. Willy tried it twice and said screw this $hit I'm gonna lay down and lick my balls. I love that dog he's a stud.

I got an ole walker hound here that mostly keeps people from stealing the couch. When you put her outside make sure you chain her up. If you don't she will go look for a moose to chase. If she finds a moose to chase--you have a choice to make--chase her until you catch her or kill the moose. She would prefer you kill the moose.

The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.
