Like my wife says. He’s just a little dog dad.

He's a lean athletic 65 pounds and pretty dang strong, so I'm just glad he didn't rip the entire set down.

He got scolded so that he knows it's not okay, but nothing extreme.

It won't matter in a few days, so no point crying over spilled milk. Sometimes dogs get a little mischievous. They're still worth it!

Lol- so true. My departed Japanese Mastiffs met me at the back door one day when I got home. I go into the living room to find a totally disemboweled Lazy-Boy with stuffing everywhere. They had jumped over the pet gate, had fun, then jumped back over. I had to laugh about it and from then on left the gate down.

My Fila/GSD will launch over the pet gate on the stairs but it keeps the Pit from going upstairs when we aren’t home. Gotta pick your battles😀
 
Funny story. Years ago when living in Guatemala, we got home from a day of fishing to find the housekeepers freaking out about our Doberman being sick. She was laying on the floor with bloated stomach hardly able to move. At first we suspected she had been poisoned as guard dogs were targeted then. Suddenly she lets out a noxious, seemingly unending fart (so horrible I swear you could see and feel it). Turns out she had somehow gotten a big Gouda cheese from the top of the fridge and ate the entire thing! Gas and poop lasted a while, and she was never a big cheese lover after that🤣

Dogs are hilarious

Yes. Her dad was a beautiful brindle Fila who escaped his place for an encounter with a GSD in heat. He was 130lbs and seemed pretty ferocious when we went to see the pup. 2 guys were holding him on a chsin and he was lunging, barking, and slobbering. Owning Tosa’s, I love big dogs so I guess he picked up on it quickly and in minutes was letting us rub his belly as he rolled around. The owner offered to sell him to us because he had never seen him act like that. We couldn’t take a grown dog at the time as the Tosa’s would not have liked it, but we brought home the pup. She is a truly great dog but does not like anyone/anything outside of our family. Super affectionate and great with our pit. She is 115 lbs and fast as can be. She helps me with chores and loves to be anywhere we are, but especially when at the remote property.

I have been around a couple of them. Among the scariest capabilities in dogs I’ve ever seen. The owners had little kids and other dogs and such but strangers beware. Pretty dogs

Our vet said Fila’s are the breed he has had the most trouble with regarding aggression towards staff (being strangers). Most Fila’s I have been around are stand-offish, but great with family. My girl is pretty ferocious at times but such a great family dog.

My Tosa’s and Cane Corso were similar. In a perfect world I would have a huge ranch with lots of big dogs! When we moved back to the States, we had an English Mastiff/Great Dane mix and since then I just prefer big pups. Nothing like wrassling with one and have them put your entire head in its mouth!🤣
 
Thank you !

Loki (Girl, BTW) was the only dog of ours that actually ever caught a squirrel. Not for lack of trying of the others :)

We'll probably stick with Rotties, better in the cold, I think. Time will tell ...

Fine looking dog. Nicely marked. The lighting in that shot makes him look like there is a racing stripe running down the middle of his back carrying on out through his tail. High speed and handsome

Thanks.

Yeah, that "stripe" is why I posted it. It's really a cool feature of his coat and is pretty coarse. It runs the whole length, as you say, right through to his tail.

He's a real herding dog. He herds me all day...it's funny, but tiring. Kobe has a lot of shepherd features, coat-wise and appearance-wise but for his skull...unless seen from the side where it's not as obviously different.
