Thanks Lost and Sas! I love my little Maggie....even tho she peed on my pillow last night! ARGH! Do you all have the same issue. Kind of the puppy "raspberry" when they are tired or mad?

Lost, thanks so much for posting her pic for me!

You're welcome Luv....my pleasure!!! Yes...Millie forgets everything she knows about house training when I'm away for a few days and leave her in the care of DH and my two DD's. For me she's great so I think it's definitely her way of showing her anger....only I'm not there to benefit from it. lol

Awwww Sas....Your Jack is beautiful and I demand that you quit picking on him right now!!! hehe

Luvmyjrt -- What a gorgeous little Maggie! Thanks lost for posting it. I don't have any puppy "raspberry" problems with my dog, thankfully! Though he did growl at the vet today -- and tormented the vet's cat by trying to kiss it and play with it.

And Lost, I think you should re-post the Millie/tree photo -- I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Sas -- I agree with Lost -- your Jack is really beautiful too!!!!! It's what makes them cool -- they're all different.

It's too close to see, but in my pictures above, Finnegan is actually about 4 feet off the ground -- I'm holding the ball/stick just below shoulder level.

Boy, us JRT people have really tried to take over this thread, haven't we? How annoying we are
:) :) :)

LOL Yankee...we are about as annoying as our dogs...but then, that's why we have them. I really need to get one of those ball/sticks, looks like it really saves the hands.

Millie will latch on to the ball or what ever we happen to be playing with and I can lift her about 5 feet off the ground while she holds on with her teeth. She kinda looks like a fish on a hook when she does that. Her favorite is a frisbee as she can really sink her teeth into it.

Jack is too stubborn to jump for a frisbee; he knows that all he has to do is wait for it to land and then he won't have to work to get it.

Don't these guys just make you laugh all of the time?

And no, he doesn't leave us any presents; only when we took him to the kennel for the first time did he get angry and left a 'chocolate' on our bed.

Maggie is like a gator with toys. Frisbees, balls, anything! She refuses to let go so you can play with her. An excellent frisbee players as long as you have two and can get her to drop! My Border Collie, Shannon, is younger than Maggie but is truly the Alpha Dog. She keeps Maggie in check and frequently swats her "just because" she can! I say we start a JRT thread to share their hysterical stories! Sas --- you up to to the challenge of beginning the thread?

I think that Chuck, my JRT is the smartest dog that I have ever owned. I know that he is Michaels (my 16 year old son) very best friend. I have joint custody of Michael with his father, and the week that he is at his dads...Chuck is a mess. Pacing from room to room, whining at the end of his bed, constantly looking for him. His favorite game is hide and seek. Yep he will actually stay in another room until Michael yells "ready" and then that darn dog will go to all the hiding places until he finds him. Then its romp and play time. I am 5'9" tall and I can take a treat, place it on my shoulder and Chuck can jump to my shoulder to retrieve it. But he is also a very demanding dog....knows when he wants to eat, go out, and play....and there is no ignoring him. And when I have a date....needless to say I meet them at the door....and if they dare to kiss or hug me goodnight....well lets just say that I've seen teeth, lots of teeth!!
Come to think of it, maybe thats why I'm single!! But...we love him.

I agree on the JRT thread only because I'm feeling a bit guilty about taking over the dog thread. hehehe

Lost: Ask yourself this question: "Does my JRT feel guilty that it's all about him?" Tee Hee

A couple of dog questions:

I recently adopted a Sheppard/mix from the shelter. She's a complete sweety and we love her dearly. Do any of you know how Sheppards shed? Do they "blow" their undercoat all at once? I ask because that's how my late corgi shed and that's what the new dog is doing now. I'm wondering if she might be part corgi (the shelter think she's part Bassett because she's small and short).

Also, any ideas of how to keep her off my couch when I'm not home? I tried putting a laundry basket on there and she just knocked it off. I tried tin foil -- same thing.

Here are some shots of the boys in the snow yesterday. I wish I had video to share because it was hysterical to watch them both hop through the snow because it was too deep to walk or run!

Here is Henry :)

2
This is Toby - see the little bit of snow on his nose?


3
Another shot of Toby. See how he cleared out a spot to walk?
