PETS: wot you got?

[derek foxen]

Guess you've explored the net for info on the breed Juan...Tom's advice spot-on (Bengals...spot - on rofl)...but you can expect some 'fun'!
We rehomed two 5yr old sisters a year ago ...still trying to work them out!

Dogs wot I had!

VERY NICE.
My wife's sister breed Akitas and shows Akitas. Would love to have a couple but they are just too big for my already growing family.

Great personalities.

Cheers!!

Well Taiga the cat is starting to become 'less shy'. She now ambushes me by jumping onto my leg all claws and teeth and then running away laughing! Great when you go for a pee in the dark at 3am! Still camera shy but will try and post pics when possible.

A new addition to the Glowworm family.

Max a 1 year old black lab.

He is a rescue that came from ireland.

Hendy our weimaraner loves him and he now has a friend to run and play with.

Baldyfish that's a corker of a dog, and the best is yet to come, I think lab's reach their best at around four. The smarter ones start developing great personalities at about that age, the ones I had did anyway. Nice pictures too.

This is from my "about me" page from my website Select Violins. I now only have three dogs: two Komondorok and a lab pitbull mix.

 

[foxfish]

Great pics perhaps could could use you woodworking skills to build a gun?
The Komondorok I have seen have had dreadlocks all over although i think the spelling is slightly different?

 

[Dannyk]

Komondor do get the cords, but it is a lot of work to keep them even looking, and impossible to keep them clean. It is the house pets/show dogs with the pretty white cords. Komondorok is the plural in Hungarian. They look like dumb sheep, but by nature are vary aggressive guard dogs. They have to be trained to be nice and even then you can never trust them with strangers/visitors.

I don't have a wood working shop or I would already be working on making a speargun. Violin repair is a very different type of skill though. I do mostly set up and touchup. The goal is to make it look like it is an untouched original. I try to stay away from the violins with bad cracks, as they are just more work, and have less profit.

The ice is almost gone..........we are having a very early spring I can't wait to get in the water.

Great post Dannyk. Love those pictures of your home area. Looks an amazing place. I've travelled a bit around the States but never to Winconsin. Think I missed out.

Dave.

 

[Dannyk]

Wisconsin is a very beautiful state. A lot of variety, and many wonderful little lakes full of pan fish. I live in the driftless area which is hills and valleys and trout streams, but no lakes. So I have to travel at least an hour for good diving. It is only about a 24 hour drive to a choice of two oceans, or the gulf of Mexico, as long as you limit the number of bathroom brakes and ignore the speed limits

Nice pics/posts Dannyk.
The furthest you could drive to the ocean here would also take 24(minutes!)

 

[Dannyk]

Chef Al,

Texas is so big.............going through it, to get to the ocean, could add another 24 hours onto the trip.

Well...you'll miss having a Lonestar or Shiner Bock beer, but I understand.
