I have a cat myself, but I dogs too. My daughter and her husband have a beautiful black lab who is the sweetest most friendly dog in the universe. She’s nicer than most people (and all Saudis) that I know.

“Leave my dog alone…..and anyone whose religion thinks dogs are bad has serious issues. Truly.”

I had a beautiful black Labrador named Champion who was not only my Dad’s best buddy and my best buddy he was also not a dog to mess with as in if he didn’t know you and you inadverdently decided to try and pet him while he was sticking his head out of the back seat window he would take your hand off. He also hated my ex fiance. In retrospect I understand. Black Dog has more sense than 22 year old girl. I got that.
But he would have defended us to the death and if anyone had done anything to him they would have been met with more than just a bitch slap. Same thing with my Golden Retriever. Buford’s biggest glitch is he loves too much. He is also beautiful. His vet goes on and on about what a wonderful example of the breed he is. And if anyone ever went near him they would be met with the mistress of the house and a 12 guage shotgun. Leave my dog alone…..and anyone whose religion thinks dogs are bad has serious issues. Truly.

Just to clarify: the only way my dog would attack you is to lick your face until you couldn’t take it any more! Hmmm – maybe I should contact the CIA.

My “insurance policy” would be my AR-15 – if it ever gets here.

Last time over there was a military working dog and its handler that worked out of our CP. The dog was black and the handler told us that almost all Iraqis were scared to death of that dog. We were also told that they consider dogs “unclean”.

The dog by the way was trained in explosives exploitation (that means finding bombs) and was a Lab/Shepard mix. The sweetest dog you’d ever want to meet, until he went into attack mode. It was interesting to watch the change that came over the soldiers when he came into the TOC…it was like a load had been lifted and they were all kids again. For some reason the young ladies went especially nuts over him.

Oh, well just my 2 cents.

Kenn and John – Two collies live in the trzupr household. Both are tremendous pains in the ass, and I couldn’t be more fond of them. (And their reactions to an intruder would be more in line with John’s buddies than Kenn’s, for the record).

“… and by resort town, I of course mean God-forsaken s**thole …”

I applaud you.

And I too have a lab. Yellow. The dog is dangerous. If you’re laying on the couch for 10 minutes, it will probably be on top of you within 3, smothering you with affection.

They even get NEAR my lab and it’s “Say hello to my little ‘insurance policy!”
