Yeah they are good dogs once they get out of the puppy stage. My Sadie always listened to me. My ex wife used to complain that when I would leave for work the dog would tear ass thru the house messing things up, barking, etc (guess the dog figured out the wife before I did, lol). I didnt beleive her so one day I stood outside the door and sure enough when she thought I was gone the rampage would start. Unfortunately in the process of spliting up I moved to a small apt complex and was unable to keep her. She was just past the puppy stage, and a very good dog.

oh ya he has his rampage stages alright, he want the family all together with him to play with, when otheres are gone hies down in attatude but still plays bt not happy till were all at home, loves to go for walks and knows what the spoken word "walk" means, smart as hell the dog is but stubburn as hell too, hies like moving stump, slow moving, get in your way and have to step over him, cant do anything fast around the house with out having to step over him.
loving tho when its bed time he curls up with me like a teddy bear and sleeps with me till i get up and im a day sleeper work nights now, he adapts to me, but likes to play and get on my nerves

while i was away ive been playing this online game called aces high, well a few weeks ago a player a 13 yr old buy the name of tailspin was killed in an acadent, well we did a film within the game as tribute to her, her father is in it as well as her uncle, this really chocks me up into tears as i knew her as a player and all and im in the vid too manning a tiger tank linning the runway.

it would mean alot to me if yo wold see the vid on yotube and respond, the lose of a young player plus being 13 is a young age to loose there life.

warnning it is a sad vid to the loss of a young sole. you may want to shed a tear or two and thats ok in my book. im in a tank on the ground in the vid
its a vid made with in the game of aces high and WELL DONE hope you enjoy

I hear you on the under foot thing. Seems every 4 legged critter Ive had was that way. Even our parrots have gotten accustom getting off their cage roaming the house in search of their mommy (my wife). Ive almost stepped on them many times. You mention the walk word, my Sadie was that way with the boat word. She loved to go fishing with me. If she seen me walk toward the boat she was running around trying to find a way to get in it. And if she was in the house looking out the window, you could count on replacing the blinds or curtains or both. Thanks for bringing back some old memories , now I'm wanting to get another dog. Still a little heartbroken over having my Dalmation put down 6 months ago.In 15 years we had been to hell and back together , she was my best girl.

after i seen what they done with the video i cryd like a fraking baby, sorry i guess im that much of a man then, but i feel for the lose of life and have a respect to the father and uncle in the vid.
her father flys her pinkish spitfire plane in the end, truly sad vid and i miss hearing her squeaker voice on the radio, such a loss, bad spelling and all, share in my pain here, a young player and loss of life that was dear to me in this video, cry out loud as it is sad.

The loss of any childs life is indeed a tragedy. My condolences to her loved ones

[chrish]

i had a basset .
his name was stoddard.
he was a good guy and pure hell on an animal in a burrow!
otherwise he was a lazy clown around the house.

My deepest sympathy to the family of "Tailspin". The U-tube Memorial was one of the most moving things I have seen in a long time. And yes, it brought tears.

Chrish, I got so wrapped up in the Memorial that I forgot to welcome you back. Glad you are with us again.
