How many KBers own dogs?

I used to own an XS250,now that was a real dog.

I'm not a dog fan,and that's 100% because of peoples poorly trained mutts.I really like a well trained polite friendly dog.

But now my daughter has come home to live,and she has brought her stupid dog with her.He's a German Shepherd/Blue Healer cross,kinda like a small German Shepherd with a finer head and big pointy ears.And as usual with a cross,instead of the best parts of two very intelligent dogs,we have a moron.She saved him from being put down by friends,like all he needs is a bit of attention y'know.I think he's too far gone to retain,he just doesn't ''get it''.

But the other night he damaged one of our cars in spite because no one attended his neurotic wimperings.....and I've laid down some rules.In just a couple of days with controlled exercise and not reinforcing his bad habits by attention he has calmed down a lot,despite the fireworks this week.Trouble is retaining has to be consistant,and today her partner comes home to stay too....and he's a military type who thinks you train by shouting and superior force.But I'm the type who believes you can train a dog by quiet dominance,the Dog Whisperer approach.My uncle trained gun dogs,he never raised his voice or hit them,but he was the boss and they knew it.

just took my ol" shephard for a walk up to the cemetary as there is a nice grassy area on the other side. It is at the end of a culdisac and walking back the rotweiler that lives in the nearby house decided to run across the road growling at us.....ok....... shit undies time...........so i wandered back to the end of the road and waited some folk who were visiting their loved ones.....waiting....waiting........finally the owners of the rotweiller came out of their section: .....i calmly asked them to get their dog as i was hemmed in with my pup on his lead!
she says "hey no problem,hes 15 and couldnt hurt ya anyway"

..........tell that to my nervous system!!!!!!!!
