No, no, not the tag. The last time you tagged me, that really hurt. Oh well, it's better than being branded. Which reminds me, please don't hog tie me when you do that. God, you're mean.

Well, if you would quit biting him then he wouldn't have to tie you at all.

Now that’s funny! The first date I had with my wife (we had been friendly for awhile) I was home on leave from the Navy and I borrowed my dad’s brand, spanking new 1973 Ford LTD. It was a nice ride but the door handles were located down low and recessed. When we got to the restaurant (the old Victoria Station) and parked, I got out my side and waited for her to get out her side. I went around the back of the car and waited for her but the door never opened. So I thought, “What a hoity toity snot” and went and opened the door for her. She literally burst out of the car snarling, “you wouldn’t have had to open the door for me if I could have found the door handle!” Boy was she pissed. I knew then that this was the girl I was going to marry.....

So that was when she discovered your "love handles"

Indeed! A Sheepadoodle! And the little one is a Shorkie (1/2 Shih Tzu and 1/2 Yorkie)

Having had a high energy, full alpha male Welsh Terrier, the (female) doodle is one helluva change of pace. Very sweet but stubborn. Poodles are just terriers and I can handle those traits, but the sheepdog traits really take some getting used to. But she’s a sweetheart and we’re very happy with her.

Sorry about the bad vid. I just shot this of Roxie (Sheepadoodle) and Abby (Shorkie). They're both puppies, adore each other, and a load of fun!

That dog looks a lot like a bear.
When I was a kid, I use to take my dog swimming in Oswego lake. I would get an inner tube that was no longer useful in a car and sit in it while paddling in the lake. My dog would join me and I would grab his tail while he dragged me all over the place. It was great fun until we got tired and went to shore. I would get out of the lake as did my dog and then my dog would shake off the water and onto me right after I had toweled off. I loved that dog like I loved my family. In fact my mom, dad and brother all treated our dog like he was one of the family.
Thanks for the memories.
 
Webp.net-resizeimage.jpg Found this sweet boy on my girlfriend's front porch after work today. He had broken his cable that he was secured with. Walked around the neighborhood looking for his owner, but no luck. We posted his picture on a few lost pet sites and informed animal control. Gonna post some signs in the area tomorrow. Either way, it's 11 o clock here, so it looks like I'll be cuddling with two bodies tonight!

Ended up finding the owner a couple strees over.
 
One of the greatest athlete fits I ever watched in real life happened this weekend. Look at the following photo:

Notice the abandoned white board in the background and everyone smiling.

What we have here is right after Mr. pink vest, which was surfing on that white board in the background - noticed that he is going to crash into Mr. green vest - as they were sharing a wave. He took matter into his own paws and mid surf abandoned ship, jumped onto the other board and they rode tandem.

The whole beach erupted and both competitors got maximum points from the judges.

Glad you like them. Wish I had the mid-jump photo as well, but I was trying to go for the Goldie on the bottom right when I saw that the 2 boards were coming apart - so as I was changing to catch it - I got to at least see the jump and landing, but not capture it. I will go through the rest of my photos and post some good ones.

There is another event coming up in early September - unfortunately I am away on a business trip - so this was the only event I got to attend this year.
 
Canadian service dogs attend 'Billy Elliot' production, photo goes viral
By David Aaro | Fox News

An adorable photo of a group of service dogs sitting in a Canadian theater last week catching a production of "Billy Elliot" has gone viral.

The photo shows the crowd of mainly poodles and golden retrievers taking up at least four rows and attentively watching the stage during the Stratford Festival in Ontario. The objective was to prevent fur from flying during live theater so the pups can help their handlers navigate a theater atmosphere.

"It's important to prepare the dogs for any activity the handler may like to attend," said Laura Mackenzie, owner of K-9 Country Inn Working Service Dogs and who spearheaded the outing, told CBC radio.

"The theater gives us the opportunity to expose the dogs to different stimuli such as lights, loud noises and movement of varying degrees. The dogs must remain relaxed in tight quarters for an extended period of time."

The canines took part in the theater's "relaxed performance," made for attendees with autism or for those who need a calmer experience. The venue also has shows made for those with hearing or visual impairments.

"They were all extremely well-behaved," Stratford Festival spokesperson Ann Swerdfager told the radio station. "I was in the lobby when they came in, then they took their seats, then got out of their seats at intermission and went back. All of the things we learn as humans when we start going to the theater."

Swerdfager said both cast and audience members were thrilled to see the four-legged attendees and that service dogs are accepted there several times per week. It's a unique training method that gives service handlers a leg up on attending outings, like a play.

"Everybody was so thrilled to see all these dogs at one time in the audience. It's really exciting. And it's thrilling to be part of something that is going to serve theatergoers of the future," Swerdfager told the outlet.

"It's wonderful that going to the theater is considered one of the things that you want to train a service dog for, rather than thinking that theatre is out of reach for people who require a service animal because it isn't," she added.

All of the doggies were reportedly all very good boys during the show, and Mackenzie said she plans to return with more pups in the future.

"All of the dogs were fantastic and remained relaxed throughout the performance. Some even watched through the cracks of the seats," said Mackenzie. "The dogs loved the show almost as much as their handlers."

If I had a dog it would be one of three choices. A Golden Retriever, A Chocolate Lab or a Husky. No small yelping dogs for me.

A German Shepherd would also be an excellent choice. I had one from the age of 8 until he died of a kidney ailment when I was 12. A boy could not have had a finer pet. We did nearly everything together, fishing, swimming, even going to school. I would have slept with him but my parents wouldn't allow it.
