Think the Victrola dog was a smooth fox terrier - very, very popular in the old days.

Good rat dogs, but too hyper for me.

There are 2 terriers i kind of like, Welsh Terriers and Airedales. And maybe Soft Coated Wheaton.

Soft Coated Wheatens seem like nice dogs and I kind of want one eventually but they are so rare. Same for Otterhounds.

So slow going today.

JRTs are awesome dogs! Our Bully was a Parsons.

Ordered a skijoring line and skijoring belt from Howling Dog Alaska cause they had a 20% sale today. I would have ordered a harness too but 1. I didn’t want to spend that much at once, even though I will have to buy one eventually, and 2. I wanted to measure her first. Based on weight, I’m pretty sure she will be an XL but I’m not entirely sure and sometimes some things can run slightly small there plus I’m kinda OCD so I wanna like measure and be 100% sure haha but since I already have an order in, I’m not going to like measure and order it immediately and pay shipping twice, that’s dumb, so I’m gonna wait until we’re ready. Gonna practice the basic commands first. Plus she’s still only a year old (will be the 15th) and could grow some more by next year so I’d rather wait and see. But I’ll work on training her and Franklin. For now I can use collars and/or their old walking harnesses. These are the products. Eventually I want to get the two dog line and possibly the pro belt and/or pro line (quick release clip). And the Distance Dog or Second Skin harnesses.

Cap, either I missed what happened at the ER or you haven’t said....and I was asking the other day, too! So how are you doing?

For anyone who thinks they’d like a big dog, check these out! In the one with her head, that’s my size 10, wide foot next to it! I posted these on another thread so if you’ve seen them before, forgive me. But even though I was no stranger to Irish Wolfhounds, having one and seeing her grow....and grow...and grow is astounding, especially in this little house. And she is so darned sweet! All of her orneriness is done outside, and she can be pretty destructive out there. But she’s the gentlest thing!
