You're so funny.

I saw a story on the news recently showing a cop pushing his police dog through a car window after a man who was sitting there with both of his hands up . Of course the cops had just chased him for miles so that makes it ok.

It's not their fault when they are misused by their handlers. It is sad.

Thanks for the K&R!

wanted to be a police dog, but she was told she was just too darned cute. Here she is feeling sad at being rejected.

Thing is, a terrier will fuck you up given the opportunity.

if they don't like the way it looks at them. After all, they were bred to follow foxes into the den. Totally fearless. I wouldn't say mean - they love people. But they do have attitude. Brigid first heard fireworks at 6 months old, and every time one went off she'd rush the fence in savage mode, just daring it to come any closer and harm us.
