Very nice country and critters you got there, redhen.
I laid next to a St. Bernard on the floor of a ski resort in Chile' my senior year... it was bigger n' me. Never moved a muscle...just kept snoring. Up until some hikers left the door...small bell on door rang...and he jumped up and followed them out. What a good dog.
First time I encountered a great dane...I knocked on the door of a friend's house...the dog stood at the door....his head level with mine and he said...ruff ruff....and I was like...holy heck...what's that dog standing on? Do they got a landing or a step there?
Friend came to the door and opened it up and there was no step, no landing, just all dog.
What's that say? I'm short and the dog is tall? ha ha ha ha.
me,
