Re: Bully dogs "
Malcolm, excuse my meditation on dogs, while I have had several breeds over a long period of time starting with a Spaniel followed by an English Bull Terrior, two Rhodiasion Ridgebacks, a Great Dane and lastly a German Sheppard. All living to their time. Upon reflection I have never OWNED a dog,strange perhaps to some people, they were my friends and companions the Sheppard also my partner.We all had our rules of conduct, some natural others taught, the only time ownership fit into the equation was my responsibility on any deviation from acceptable behavior which surprising enough never occurred. My work companion, the Sheppard, while on duty was usually , for obvious reason, tethered to me by an adjustable eight foot leash. Even though well trained there was no reason or excuse for error in judgement. At home and into retirement she was a wonderful loyal friend. That being said all of my companion friends including myself had to on occasion review the rules of conduct. OWNERSHIP never entered our relationship. Good luck in finding homes for the two dogs.
