This thing either wants a treat, or to go outside.....and then back inside. He's a weird little cuss. I hope I'm not killing him slowly with metal dust.

Every time I come in from working in the shop, he wants to lick the dirt off my hands. I tell Deb that's why he weighs so much. I could melt him down and get enough metal to make a blade

Very cute Mark.Mine does the same in and out all the time.Lately he has started licking up the floor around my grinders.I am waiting for him to start rusting.What would we do without shop dogs?Except get more work done.Dave :D
 
Well, other than the fact that steel shaving can't be good for a dog- that's pretty cute. What kind of dog is he?
 
Cute lil feller. ;)
I've got one too, a golden retriever.
She likes to lick my hands too, and I think I know why. After a day out in the shop, if you smell your hands with the grit on them, it kinda smells like blood. (From the iron in steel I guess). The dogs assume they are licking blood, and aren't smart enough to tell that they only smell it, don't taste it. :confused:
That is my hypothesis, whadya think?

That there is a Chipeake. Chihuahua and Pekingese mix. He's a riot. If we move anything in the house he knows and barks at it. If my shoes arent sitting where they normally reside. He lets me know about it. I swear he'd notice if we hang a new picture.

We also by accident discovered he has a hidden talent. About a year ago he jumped off the couch and started howling like no tomorrow. We couldn't figure it out for a while. The dog loves the theme to the show "Sanford and son" Every time it come on he'll jump up out of a dead sleep and sing his butt off. It's always good for a laugh.
 
Wow, that pekingese has helped him allot. Chihuahas creep me out, but my first thought was "oh, he's so cute"
My friend's dogs will howl if you get really out of tune for the happy birthday song. It hurts like nails on a chalk board, or styrafoam on styrafoam, but its funny.
 
Hey Mark That Dog sure doesn't look under fed. If that Dog cold talk I bet we would hear some REAL stories :eek:

I have 3 shop pests at my place CATS You all know the kind "another abused cat". Wish I got fed as good as they do. But the world would be a sad place without our pets.

Mark, Dogs for the most part can eat anything and it doesn't look like the steel dust has hurt him any. Does a magnet attract to him? If thats so I'd watch his iron intake. The neighbor's dog is constantly in our compost pile. I can't believe its still alive. Alot of what goes in there is the stuff that has started growing while in the fridge. I'd sure like to get a dog of my own but I have a hard enough time taking care of my few cows.
 
Thanks for the pic, Mark. That little feller is cute as a button. I ain't much of a small-dog guy, but that one sure has personality and that counts for a lot. That little guy got a name?
 
Cute, and I know what you mean about wanting in/out. I've got a new shop cat that has got to be the ugliest thing you ever seen, a mix of calico and simease and god knows what. She and the dog like to play and when she gets tired of the dog dragging her across the yard comes into the shop.

Trick, I don't think any body realy want's to know what the armidilo dropins are for. :eek:
 
Higgy, His name is Squirt. He is from a litter of 8 of these rascals. The fella that had the litter worked at a vets office near out house. The receptionist at the office is a friend of Deb's. We had her on the lookout for a small dog. The guys that worked there needed to separate him from the rest of the litter. Apparently "Squirt" was always so diligent in protecting his food that he was actually starving himself.

On a weird note. The guy that had "squirt" and his gay lover got in a spat a few months after we took him home. The guy was stabbed to death 24 times. The guy that did the stabbing as far as i know hasn't served any time due to being a nut-job.
 
Damn Mark...you sure do have alot of connections to NUTS.
I see Squirt has his poppas eyes :D .

Squirt, heh? Excellent name, hehe! We had a "little guy" dog. His name was Otto Von Bismark Belletete Jr. (his dad being Otto Sr.). Otto was a sparky little mini-schnauzer. He was a good boy, but in many ways an irritating p.o.s. if you get my drift. Stubborn. Obstinate. He would bark if a leaf fell off a tree. I cried like a baby when he passed away (diabetes). He was only 14 years old, but that is young for a schnauzer.

Yep, I'm a sucker for dogs. They leave their paw prints on my heart. The little barky types drive me mental though. :p
