ALL DOG OWNERS show us your pooch

To say I'm blown away by the response to my post is an understatement, thanks everyone, really appreciated.

Who would have thought the flea bitten little mongrel we bought home would have such an impact. We only took him on as we felt sorry for him and let the grand-kids name him.
He used to cower when you looked at him or he heard a loud voice, spent the first couple of weeks attempting to escape but gradually gained our trust. Turned into a great little mate and watch dog.
He developed a heart condition in the last year and his long daily walks turned from vigorous treks to short slow strolls around the neighborhood, he never eased up on marking every available pole though. The last couple of months he had a rapid weight loss and that turned out to be diabetes and liver problems. He spent the last few weeks relaxing on the couch or my knee but was always alert if anyone came to the door.
We agreed that we were not going to prolong his life for our benefit, he peacefully died in my arms at the vets.

He will be over the rainbow bridge ( google it if you don't know) kicking back and pissing on every pole/tree out there. He play with my AJ that we had put down earlier in this thread

I'm trying to upload a photo of our pup at the moment, the app isn't working. We are off to puppy school tonight

You know puppy school is about training the owner more than the dog right? We went right though obedience training for my last dog AJ and it is honestly more about what we learnt and we have now applied this to our new pup

He does some awesome tricks, one day when i bring him to a patrol meet I'll show you
