deep breaths please LB, I am not "moralizing", I'm sure Bandogge's got good reasons for that training, they just weren't explained very well in the context of the post, all I saw was someone apparently teaching a large dog how to attack and immediately thought of similiar business ventures like cock fighting.Quote:

If you look further back in this thread you'll find more explanation of what is going on and why.Quote:

doublediamond223,
What you are seing is basically a Temperment Test for an un-trained dog as you would see performed in Russia. Caucasian Ovcharkas are working dogs and therefore the only individuals worth breeding to must display this type of bahaviour innately, when the situation dictates... They must be able to put on a strong threat display, be willing to bite, and not focus on "dead" or dropped equip., but the decoy instead.
Many dogs, of all breeds, including "working" breeds, are in fact not willing to bite and commit to engagement... The only way to be sure that a dog is going to perform is to test for it.

would you guys stop already? I just shit my pants again! ;)
Let me jump up and do the work for you then.... clearly it's what I exist for. Oh wait no that's your mommy, maybe she'll find it for you.Quote:

Of course by the time I got him to come back to me he'd dropped the piece and I had to spend 45 minutes searching for it in the dark.
Little fucker had the nerve to wag his tail at me when I came back in.
My new pup Neptune with a new friend Sancho a bull mastiff. That is not me in the pic. I will soon have new Gotamas to round the man's best friend thing.
These dogs are sooo cute. I can hardly wait till I can get a doggie that can join me on my adventures.

To those who don't know her this stare may seem rather blank. But to know her is to know this stare says it all; demanding, expectant, insistent. She's about two and spoiled rotten. She isn't good for much beyond hiking, lounging, shedding or destroying shit(that whats left of one of my shoes in the background). But she loves the snow and barks loud enough and deep enough to make a good alarm system so we kept her around.

Two words:
Labs Rule
10 weeks. Got him from riorocklabs in Del Norte. I had originally planed on getting a chocolate female but out of 6 pups there was only one female. I honestly didn't care what color or sex I got so long as he/she was healthy. He ended up being the biggest of the litter and currently resembles a little pig more than a dog but it is endearing.Quote:

well my dog isn't a carrot anymore I've just been too lazy to chage my avatar... this is charlie, he's 6 months now and just around 60lbs - of course the most recent pictures are still on my camera... so in these ones he still has his puppy coat and teeth and its warm out.

Meet Jack, our newest family addition. He is a four year old, part border collie, from a local rescue operation, and just about the most mellow dog that I have ever encountered; which runs counter to my previous experience with purebred boarder collies. He had heartworm, which was treated by the rescue group, and went through the prisoner/dog training operation.
I haven't had a dog in 25 years, but my wife thought our kids would enjoy something a little less aloof than our cats. She was right. I didn't want to deal with a puppy, and was worried about finding a dog that wouldn't see our cats as toys/prey. Jack seems to ignore them, and I'm surprised to find they don't seem to mind him either.
We've only had him a week, but so far, he has exceeded my wildest expectations of what a dog can be.
Presenting the photogenic and powder slutting Angus:

Finally after six years living in a condo my wife and I bought a house, so that means time for a new pooch!!!! My old dog passed away after a long 15 years in 2000 so I am totally ready for a new one. I love black labs with a little mix so thats what I got again. He's 7 months old and I adopted him from Westside Shepard Rescue outside of Petco in Westlake. He's really a lovely fellow and I am super stoked. Her he is..........................Kaiser
