Possession, first point of law.

works like that in the truck too.

I've got a crew cab truck and the back seat is hers. All of it. Side to side. Hers. She only comes to the front seat when there is food involved.

:) Like that Rick! Miz Tillie, the Old English Bulldog, will not let the Pug in her back seat of the pick-up. Yoda Shinn, the Pug, has to sit on Grandma's lap. But I don't think he minds that much.

I agree, food on my plate is MINE. In her dish - hers. She does grunt & growl when moved. Her problem.

None of our dogs were ever allowed on the furniture. Period. Truck seats are exempt, as is lawn furnature.

Jazz could be laid back at times. But he would play Frisbee, till you got tired, without any treats. Wasn't all black, about 3/4 when he was still less than a year.

jazz 1st day home -14 weeks.jpg

First day we brought him home, at 14 weeks.


Jazz 3.jpg


In his prime at @ five years. Best and smartest dog I ever owned. Irreplaceable, sadly he only made it till ten. Developed an autoimmune disease of the spine and lost the use of his hind legs. Inoperable condition. Tried to play up till his last day.



Jazz and Max (8-17-01).jpg

With his buddy Max, a few weeks after we brought him home. Jazz was Max's replacement. Max had developed a inoperable tumor on his bowel, after we had one removed from his front shoulder. Vet gave him @ one month to live. He lasted eight more months. Long enough to teach Jazz the ropes. We lived in Detroit, back then, and never had a break in. Cindy would walk at 5 AM , every morning with Jazz, off leash. I left for work, she didn't start till 8 AM. Never was accosted.

That's a good looking pup there John, was there some extra wolf bred back in recently in the bloodline?

is there a law that say's a show dog can't be named like,, I dunno? Bill, or Lazy.
I know some of it is to show their bloodline, but are they judging the lineage or the dog?

We had Presty's silver chip long ,long ago , he was too big to show and just answered to Chip or Chipper . 80# Wiemaranner , there's still a picture around of him with a pheasant in his mouth .....neck ring and head out one side and little more thanks feet and tail on the other side . He'd let anyone put anything they wanted to in the truck but don't try to take anything out . A cop and a pump jockey figured that out pretty quickly . I don't know that he ever hurt anyone .....maybe that lab in duck camp that peed on his tires 1 time too many , but he didn't let go of the cop or gas station attendant until he was "OK'd" to do so . He spent a lot of time between strangers and me and my folks too .
The Germans certainly have a way with putting dogs together .

I didn't show Jazz and had no intentions of doing so. His AKC registered was "All that Jazz" followed by a number because there was more than one person that named their dog the same. Registration shows his lineage.

Purebreds are beautiful, but we've been hooked on wolfdogs for 20+ years.

Timber is about half Grey Wolf and half Malamute. He has required a lot of extra attention recently, as he was diagnosed with bone cancer about 5 weeks ago.

This was Smokey. He was about 75% grey wolf and 25% Belgian Tervuren or American Alsatian. He was the size of a bear cub. We rescued him from the L.A. County Animal Shelter.
