THAT is a great picture.
Our company gunny (circa 1982) was a dog handler in Vietnam.
During the Vietnam war, Marine dog handlers had very high bounties on their heads.

The more things change, the more they stay the same :/

Someone has a wreck on base, the base wide speed limit gets reduced to ridiculous levels. It’s the same sort of over reaction from bureaucrats the world over. The Corps aint exempt, unfortunatly.

“Actually, a Standard Poodle could tear you up.

The French used them as *very* effective police dogs.

Quite sharp tempered and fearless.”

My Mother had a Kennel and Kept a standard Poodle in the house for a watch dog Highly intelligent animal.

I believe they’re in the top 5 [or maybe 10] on the dog IQ ratings list.

Brilliant animals.
