Best Tricks: Sitting down, then laying down, then we walk away making him stay there, put a treat on the ground and then walk farther away while he is still laying down, then we tell him he can have it. (Update 5/27/08) Can now do all in spanish except stay, now rolls
Arrival Story: The neighborhood female dog, the only one at the time, had a litter and we adopted him. And actually we were to adopt his sister, as they wanted to keep Tucker (Bob at the time). They were the remaining two, but because the mother had accidently run over the girl they could give her to us as she still needed to be taken to the hospital for a 2nd visit. She lived and was named Lucky. Her and Tucker remained friends, as well as Shiela the Mother, until the family moved when he was around 2 years of age.
Bio: He is a mix of every dog in our neighborhood, not to mention the local coyotes. (joke)
For sure is an Australian Shepherd, Border Collie, and Chow Chow mix. Probable breeds are Rotweiler, Type of Hound, Beagle.

Me, I'm just an ole' country bumpkin mutt who's joys in life are guarding my family's backyard (hence the title - Straight from the [Guard] Post). Blame it on Nature vs. Nurture - being how I was raised, not being fixed until late in life, or that I am a Chow Chow, read the breed info if you don't know but Chow Chow's are very much like lovebirds, and an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie and like to run alot, but hey who cares? All I know is I live simply, hey - it's the southern way of living.
Now imagine my surprise when my best friend in the whole world comes out to play with me and not only showers me with praise, but wants to take pictures of me! I thought the camera would break!
To date, that was my best Memorial Day ever! And now everyone can see my "modeling" pictures. They've been up for awhile, but you probably didn't know that they were from a photo shoot - hence the captions.
Speaking of which, the dog or cat that sends me the best caption for my main picture gets something special from me! Picture Perfect just doesn't seem to capture the true essence of the picture.
That is all for now, though more is still to come,
I am but a simple dog. I live in a multi-level half acre that is all mine. Every day I wake up early and start my sentry duty. I patrol all day with an occasional nap or two. I used to do all this with my neighbors, Jack and Maggie but times are different now. At one time there was a Frank, but he lept the fences one to many times and had to move off. Jack was a good friend and fellow sentry, but he learned to climb fences and escaped. He has yet to return. It's been almost two years now, and a year with Sally their new rambunctious girl who I have been put in the position to teach all there is to teach. My days of sentry are still alive, but now I have more responsibility. Maggie herself has become partially deaf and blind and can't mother Sally, so it is all up to me. Oh joy.
