I wish I could advise that poor dog. I've spent 62 years chasing my tail and it led to nowhere....

That dog would probably be the first ever to catch a car...

...same question though - "Now what do I do with it?"

Some day's that's what I feel like......:rolleyes:

CHARLIE is a nut case on many levels and an overall fun dog. Really looking forward to this fall. We have been through two obedience levels and have gone into agility training, which she enjoys immensely. She has started to retrieve on occasion but she really does not have that as a natural ability. If it never comes, I'll still be content with finding and flushing, which she has done well since early puppyhood.

As for that tail, it is very much out of proportion to her body. I think it was supposed to be long enough for a full husky curl but the lab influence straightened it. She routinely chews on it. Good thing she has a soft mouth.

Words that come to mind with this particular shot are "futility, pointlessness, getting nowhere fast, waste of time......." (feel free to add).

Kind of like engaging in a conversation with a vegetarian on the health benefits of eating game meat.

Cheers,
Jack

My springer has a docked tail so she doesn't know it's there... Good thing cause I'd have a whirling dervish on my hands.

OT _ Instead of a canine hunting himself, how about golden eagles hunting bigger canines (wolves)

Had a look at some pics of an old departed friend tonight. CHARLIE has some mighty big paws to fill. This fella was also a big goof but pretty serious in the pheasant fields. TAZ in his prime.

He was a good lookin dog. Looked smart. The snow looks pretty deep also unless you got 2 wire fences up there. ch Oh, about the eagles hunting wolves impressive. I always fell kind of sorry for the baby rabbits the hawks get when i'm working in the field, but the hawks and eagles have to eat and I respect them, true hunters. And I respect all the preditors on the planes that live by the hunt including tha yellow dog I can't even figure out how to spell. ch
