I have it on good authority that the dog has studied The Art of War.

Was it a Shih Tzu or a Sun Tzu?

We used to have a Carin Terrier that would smile, showing her teeth.

Our friends have a Black German Shepard that was trained in Germany and responds to commands in German. All six Family members, Parents and four Boys, speak fluent German since they were Expats for eight years.

The Dog would look cool in a Hoodie. Just have to figure out how to hold him down when you try to put it on him. It isn’t anything I would attempt to do. LOL

Please explain that to the (former) ground hogs, rabbits (bunnys), chipmunks and mice in the yard.

My dog recognizes humans (well, adults anyway - those not wearing hats), postal treat givers, and her household cat.

I am in first claiming this wannabe officer had ill will and malice because he had a round in the chamber ready to go.

Funny, the dog was showing his teeth and that alone was apparently enough to make them feel the dog was aggressive? My dog like many others shows his teeth when he is smiling, and also when he is hot and trying to shed heat. So was the dog really being aggressive or is this just another case of the PANSY POLICE.

Well, I’m not talking about MY Dog. I make it a point to not trust any animal I do no interact with on a daily basis.

When I took my 80 pound Male Chow out in Public, I was amazed how people would just let their little children walk right up to his face and try to pet him.

He was a great Dog, but I always kept myself between the Dog and people’s Children. If they wanted to pet him, I held his head so he wouldn’t turn around and nip anybody. He never even tried, but I never forgot he was an Animal.

My Chow was a Redhead, and the kids always cried out “Kimba” when they saw him. That Lion King Movie must have been a monster hit.

The Chow we have now, a forty pound Female, is nervous when she is around people she doesn’t know. Something must have happened to her before we got her from an Animal Shelter.

I don’t take her out in crowded areas. Retraining didn’t help and I’m not giving her Drugs to cure the problem because it isn’t a problem in our household situation.

I can’t speak to those poor hogs, bunnies, chipmunks and mice, but my silly little Dog thinks she can catch Birds who dare to invade her backyard. As of today, it’s Birds 1000-, and my Dog 0-.
