He was about 2 when a German Shephard puppy decided to flip him over. Fred nudged him out of the way. The puppy tried again. Fred nudged him out of the way. The third time the puppy tried it, Fred sat back on his haunches, bared his teeth and growled. I'd never heard him growl, ever. The puppy stopped, looked surprised, and backed off. Fred trotted over to me and on we went with the puppy following meekly behind. The next day, a big boxer was harassing a little bichon who wasn't happy about it. Fred got between them and just by taking a step or two backed the boxer off. The boxer tried again and Fred backed him off. The little dog's owner watched this and asked me if Fred knew what he was doing. Yup. IF you asked him he would tell you that it was his dog park and when he was there, nobody bullied anybody. c d moultonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17899545521206329219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-1451109798944935442021-03-11T18:02:57.219-05:002021-03-11T18:02:57.219-05:00J C Eaton has the sleuth in their Arizona series t...J C Eaton has the sleuth in their Arizona series take her mother's dog Streetman to the dog park to get the gossip.

If I ever get a dog, I would like a small dog because I would be able to pick up the dog if I wanted to. Harder to carry a big dog, right?<br /><br />DianaBibliophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07764234701385787238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-30442684855884989422021-03-11T11:51:03.181-05:002021-03-11T11:51:03.181-05:00No stories here!

Terriers and terrier mixes are hard headed!

I love your rules! We don't take our German shepherds to the dog park--don't want them tangling with other big dogs behaving badly, and one of ours is a bit timid. We have a big fenced yard and they play together, as well as with our three cats.<br /><br />I definitely see a mystery starting with gossip at the dog park!<br /><br />Isn't it funny how dogs don't recognize size difference? Our first GSD was a big dog, over 100 pounds, and she was absolutely smitten with two little Doxies would we see on our daily walks.

I used to instruct my female visitors to "protect your ovaries" when the dog approached them.

I have only one rule when my sister's dog/s visit - they should not jump up on me. I'll sit with them, pet them, talk to them, give them belly rubs, I'll even fill the water bowls and food bowls when I visit the but don't jump on me.
