Well, I used Wyne two years bbut he was too slow, so I got Fisher in
December, 08. He is a gem. So six dogs in 20 years--should have been no more
than three. *smile*
Congratulations!

Yes I did unfortunately.
My second dog, Guinevere, I had her for two years and two days. And in that
time we struggled with bad house behaviors, distractibility towards animals,
and aggression towards other dogs. The final straw was the day she was
distracted by a cat and neglected to tell me about the four and a half foot
drop off the side of a set of steps into the bushes, I fell, panicked didn't
know how far I was falling and broke my ankle. She retired the following
week because I knew I couldn't trust her.
So yep, I have had three dogs in now what will be ten years, smile. I got
Ludden in February, brought him home on Valentine's day and he is turning
out to be a fantastic dog. House behaviors are great. he is laid back and
gentle, easy to work with, great around other animals birds, dogs and cats
included, Guinevere's three down falls, and knows how to behave himself
around other people's dogs. Which is a big thing when you are a
Rehabilitation Teacher and going into people's homes. Smile. His one
interesting habit is he will absolutely destroy kongs, or rubbery toys. We
have bones, ropes, and things called Goughnuts for him to chew on. He has
destroyed other toys even those claimed to be indestructible, smile.
