Well junk I have a badge for him but he decided to break a whole tine off one side!!!!!!!!

We dont use ballistic vests here for our dogs. You have to constantly "adapt" the dogs to the vests in all facets of there trained fields. Our dogs are dual purpose dogs trained in both narc and patrol work. We also dont have the luxury of only working with the K-9 we have to perform all other duties also. Therefore we have plenty on our plate to keep us busy. We have also found that any added objects on the dogs make it much to easy for the suspect to grab ahold of the dogs. This prevents them from biting or swimming ect which makes it much more dangerous for them.

Now that i have used the snowblower I noticed he sure loves to chase the snow as it comes out of the chute and lands. Its hilarious!!!!!!!

When we had a German Shepard, she loved the water. She jumped into the kids' little wading pool until she tore it up, she liked going to the lake, and even the salt water at the coast. And any time we picked up a garden hose, she'd bark to get us to spray her, and she liked a hard solid stream hitting her while she tried to bite it. Her teeth would just be clicking as she was snapping at a stream of water.

We've had German Shepherds since the early '50's. Here's a picture of two brothers (same sire, different dam). Billy, the black and tan, is nearly 3. Thomas is 18 months. I started showing Thomas last summer.

Here's the whole gang - old lady Chim-Chim (13), perfect dog Koko (7) and Lulu the monster (7 months), who moves so much and so fast most pics are a blur....

A rare moment in the monster's life...standing relatively still.

They sure are a beautiful bunch. It is a good thing that you didn't show where you are from, otherwise, I might be inclined to come over and save that pup from a terrible life of fun and playing with the other two. They sure are great dogs. I have owned the breed since 1970. This is a picture from 2 years ago that I just came across the other night while sorting out some computer discs...

Heh...her primary wrasslin' pal (Koko) would probably thank you. They're buddies, but she just can't keep up. The pup is smart enough not to mess with the old lady...even in her slow and lazy golden years, she's the alpha, and the pup knows it.

Here's another one of their favorite activities - gopher hunting. Not quite as much fun as pheasant, but they can do it daily... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

This one isn't exactly one of our pets, but we are taking care of him while his master is Afghanistan. He is a 9 month old Paint.

Is that cute little girl your Great Granddaughter, or a neighbor? Too attractive to be a direct descendant of yours......LOL.... Better be careful with those antlers, who knows what some hunter might think that it is? How about a close up of the jealous dog in the background?
