Seeing that I like dogs better than people, I had to post up on this thread.
Bubba as a puppy.
Bubba’s first bird, training in the back yard.
Bubba after he busted his Femur in 7 places retrieving a throwing dummy this dummy threw across a drainage ditch.
Bubba last March on the ice of Lake Michigan, the leg is all better and he’s a good pal.

Nita -- Hey hey we're the Monkees!
Prod -- Bubba looks so dejected about that leg. And so happy when he's got it back.

Hey Chiloe,
Actually he was pretty ok with the pin, but I was not so the picture is fitting. He had the pin rig for 12 weeks.

Hah, that sounds like my experience!
On another occasion, he looked out the window and saw a mama and three cubs. Jack started barking fiercely at the window.
Of course we didn't let him out, but the cubs each scrambled 50 feet up separate pine trees anyway. Then they wouldn't come down.
Mama had to pace around the base of the trees for half an hour before they all came down and moseyed on.

It's amazing how resilient they can be.

Bob, pretty much all of your modern photos could illustrate Tar's "mountain life" thread.
Really, all these doggies could too, even Euroford's watching traffic.

Bump, Bump Bump!
(I love this thread... So I am using it to get "dream partner" off the front page. I don't mind nudity, but that was a bit too much for my little brain to handle! AF)

When I put a rope near the front door this morning, Jack knew right away what was up.
"Can I come? I wanna come! I really wanna come! Please can I come too?"
"I'm sorry, Jack," I told him. "Remember how you got hurt last fall? You're not a talus-hopping
pup anymore. And besides, you're in no shape for the crags -- you nap like 22 hours a day!"
"You should talk! Couch potato! Gimp!" Jack wasn't buying my logic. "Take me with you, please?
Look, I'm dancing just to go!"
So I caved, what else could I do? And Jack got to be a crag dog one more time.

The way he was bounding down the steep sections of the trail, I thought Jack made a darn good case for more than "one more time."

Yeah, the dog looked a lot more agile than I did! And no less glad to be out.
