May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human and
enough hope to make you happy.

Hi Paula, his name is Taz.  He's 8 years old and starting to feel, but not look his age.  His mother was a pure Husky and his father was a pure German Shepard.  The guy we got him from (a good customer of ours) said his father was about 150 lbs and his mother was only a tiny Husky.  He's my dog, but he lives with his Nanny and Grampy.  Dad won't let me bring him home with me, he's too attached.  We do get the occasional sleep over - about 1 a year, but I get to see him everyday - so it's all good.

Marshall,

That sure is one smart dog. I'm amazed at how well he trained that woman to follow his every move so well. I've never been able to train one that well, and I've tried. Sheesh, I still can't even get one to bring me a cool, frosty beer, let alone follow my every command.

But I did notice that he had to keep his eye on her the whole time. Probably can't trust her to stay focused if he didn't maintain eye contact.

Yup, he is one smart dog.

  Yea, seems he has her eating out of his hand.

Now that's impressive for a woman too....shaking her head, rolling her eyes, and sighing. Doing three things at once. Wow what next? Take a complex set of instructions and follow them:? "Go get the deteregent, fill up a bucket with water, grab a sponge and wash the car will ya. Oh, and before you start, get me a cool one."

Hey Paula,

I have a nice shiny quarter for you, if you'll wash my car. Do I need to write all the steps down for you or can you remember "hose down, soap, rinse, and repeat"?
