Just to bring it all down a notch, my 12 year old Jack Russell bitch died of natural causes this morning. Law of the jungle says she should have gone years ago, but nature couldn't keep this one down
Hell of a hunter who survived being run over, having a stillborn removed ( half in, half out, yeesh!), snake bites and a million dogfights with street dogs. Clever wee bugger but never to be trusted alone around kids as they were just bigger prey to her ( sort of).
Greatest thing having a cool dog. Worst thing is outliving them all the time.
Please give your own dog an affectionate pat for me
Heart-breaking news, Siam. Gutted for you. I love our two dogs and when the mother died a few years back, I broke down in the Kitchen, I was so distraught. I will be a wreck when these two go.

Finally got a couple of photos of our mutt...
Looking good.
Mine is having some time running with the working dogs to let them put him in his place.
Going through a teenage phase at the moment and choosing when he wants to listen.

A couple of hours in the crate on the back of the Ute made him understand that he wasn’t quite as shit hot as he thought
He’s pretty good, just being a teenager and breaking the rules every now and then. Makes you feel like the training has been useless but I have been told it’s just a phase and he’ll decide himself what makes an easier life.
But then he’ll be cutesy and you forget what a shit he was 30 minutes before

Yep. Our wee bitch did a teenage phase and the wife fought her all the time (lots of shouting) but she has completely calmed down now, and the dog is also much better.
The dog has never fought with me and when we took her to training the bloke running it said that dogs are "sizeist" and the bigger that you are they are more likely to listen to you, or be aggressive if you are a threat. I had never heard that before.

So if the dog listens to the wife over the husband is the dog saying she's fat? That's a risky ole line to walk for any creature.

Tall mate, tall. Never, ever fat. Then there is the aggression thing, probably from both parties.

I've been doing home delivery since level 4. I just need your address...
Sigh. Not again. Ok here's me in a dress.

@Crucial Ours has mostly got through the teenage times, still has his moments though. He’s getting more social interaction with other dogs now which has calmed him down a fair bit.

Really important apparently. They need their pack, you, but they need to see more of their own as well.
They are very social creatures, hence the anxiety when left alone and I don't understand people that get a dog and do that.
