Here's fatty right after the bath yesterday.


He's good for about 20 minutes then he starts getting annoyed with all the water :lol-sign:







He's actually not overweight, the camera adds 20 pounds :)

He's only 140 right now.

Wow, that's a thick coat! How does he do in the heat?

I'm having to throw icewater in the bathtub for the border collies to lay in now that it's getting hot outside, and they don't have half Mishka's coat. Then again they're kind of dumb about running around when it's near 100 degrees out. :p

He never overheats, just has to get alot of water when we are outside during summer.

You really have been holding out on us, you know . . . . Haven't had nearly enough Misha pics lately! :(

I've been meaning to ask you as well - Does Misha have a scissor bite like the Fila or a regular canine-type bite?

He does have a correct scissor bite :)

(Which is btw a standard for the breed, no scissor bite == disqualification).


That picture you can barely see his big fangs but they are there :)

About 1.3-1.5 inch in length

I wondered if the CO had the scissor bite. The Fila standard accepts either, but the working (true) Fila people prefer the scissor. It's far more useful to the Fila, as it would be to the CO.

You've done very well by your friend :)
