A very long way.

Fast.

Really fast.

Especially if she's pissed.

Or in full prey drive.

ooooohhh ouch.

hmmmm (I had found a truly truly hidious foot pic but due to friendship did not post it. But it totally would have beat your infinity plus one)

Why thank you.... for not posting it

I refuse to click on the link though

:yikes: If she teams up with a Jrt..........good grief.

'Bout how long Kharma holds a grudge

*cough* *cough*

I can just picture the JRTs looking at Kharma and contemplating the things they could do with such mass. I am sure they would be in awe. (Kaiden would be in love, he has a thing for larger women)

LOL! I've had both now . . . a JRT from full working lines straight from Ireland even . . . It's a different kind of drive. Where the JRT's drive is hot, a Fila's drive is cool and calculating.

And then there was the time the JRT from the trailer park trifled with Buffy, lol . . . that poor little dog. I felt so sorry for him. He loved to go hunting with Bimmer, but if Buffy got wind of him she'd send him home. She knew what she was doing. She could have caught him any time she wanted, but she'd let him stay just barely ahead of her jaws so he could feel hot Fila breath searing his little rectum.

Only time I've EVER seen fear in a Terrier's eyes. Ever.

But he kept coming back to go hunting with Bimmer, lol.

Hehe... oh this tickled me.. lol....

*has a giggle fit*

yeah, so? neither have mine. but i still respect that they have that capability and do what i need to do to keep them safe.

SO do i and so am i making the effort to try to keep Pepper a peaceful and loving dog. THat is my responibility as her gaurdian. I am glad yours have not created harm as well. I do not believe it to be yeah? so? Kind of thing. I do not take that responsibility lightly.

Great! Neither do we!

That is why we all accept the possibility that our dogs could harm something, vs saying 'they would never'.

But still you have answered no ones questions.......

I never at any time said a dog would never. I said i would do my best to train a dog to be gentle. I don't go in for the sport that you do, i would not take pleasure in it. YOu do good for you. I only stated what has worked for me in the past and what i pray will give me the guidance to work in the future. I do believe that there are steps that a person can take in training that will help a dog gain control over their passions so they will not dodge in the street after prey. THat is for their safety and morning noon and night, we will train in hopes of installing that wisdom in their wee little noggins. It is my goal to do so. SO far she is safer then she was when she came. SOmeone dropped the ball on her along time ago. I don't want to be another in a line of people that gave up. I do not believe she should be here if she was capable of harming the dogs around us. SO i am working with her. YOu find that laughable ok. IF she can become a good canine citizen that makes her benefit not only to me but to those around me. Now i am going to take my ever repressed, totally neglected Mary to the vet. Funny i wonder how in the world she learned anything. I have a photo of her and Bronki in the yard with a cat that i drew. That cat stopped as some cats do and would not tree. THe dogs stopped and looked at the cat. IT became a mexican standoff. THe cat sat out there all day. I was able to go in and take the camera and photograph them to draw from before i called them in. WHen i called them in they came. That cat sat out there all day just to prove it could. I was never so proud of both of my dogs. That is just the way we are and i truly hope Pepper learns this from me, and from Mary and VIctor too. I can't imagine caring for a dog that was otherwise. Guess that makes me a monster.

I fully believe that the qualities that made Ares such a great worker are the same qualities that make him prone to aggression.

I also fully believe that there is common ancestry somewhere between working corgis and working terriers.

Short version ~

Toys = play drive
Cats = prey drive

Would make an interesting topic - we're discussing it on another forum.

Um...Actually, you're all wrong!! None of them are as bestest as Morgan. And I have two melon heads and a crabby corgi that agree with me.
