Got me a new killer guard dog for protecting the family here in the new digs. Just one look at him and you know your spit is weak. As a mailman, I shudder eveytime he gives me the bad eye. As a matter of fact, here he is giving me the bad eye as I do my best to hold him at arm's length. Otherwise, he'd be right on my throat.
Can you see the evil in his eye? Can ya?!?
So, ... do y'all think he'll make a tolling dog? Better yet, do you think the wife and kids would ever let me take him with me hunting?
(His name is Harley and he's a 5 week old Feist/ Rat terrier. I made the mistake of trying to get out of one corner and ended up in another when I told my wife several months ago - after she enlisted our daughter's help in trying to convince me to "get a new puppy?!?!?" - that we would get one only after we had moved into a new house. Slap me, would ya?)
So much for rule no. 741.b : No livestock in the house.

Comments like that and I can guarantee that dog won't hunt. ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

Rich,
Those were my first thoughts too.
"Cool a bait dog"!
I keep thinking that I'll pick up a stray chihuahua and bring it home to become a hunting dog. And if I ever do, you can bet I will name the dog "Bait" just so the Wife and kids don't forget his position in life!

Hey,
I'm a winner either way, guys. If he gets ate, I can do an article on using "bait dogs" to call coyotes and still make better than 3X what I paid for him for the work. Won't be enough to cover the divorce attorney, but it'll at least cover the secuirty deposit on my new trailer house rental property. LOL ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

Looks like he'd make a good squirrel dog. I love working mountain cur, fiest and JR's. They look like a kid in a candy store everytime you take em' to the woods. Give him a couple weeks before you put the shocking collar on him:

LOL, I don’t know if he will toll or not? Will it fetch rocks?
I made the same kind of deal with Heather, now I’m feeding a black lab who drowned the first time I took him with me irrigating. LOL
Cute pup, I bet Tabor doesn’t let it out of her sight.

Lance,
You don't want the little guy to get lonely, Maybe you should get him a friend?

Yowzers, Tim! Let me check with the wife. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Actually, that pic reminds me of a little joke. It goes like this...
This Italian girl goes to the dress store to buy herself a new dress. (I use Italian because my sister's husband is Italian and, well, it just fits. You'll see. Anyway, I digress...) She takes a particularly skimpy dress into the fitting room, puts it on, then steps out where she parades across in front of the sales clerk and asks, "Do you think this dress is too low cut?"
The clerks asks, "Do you have hair on your chest?"
She says, "Uhhh, no!"
"Well," says the clerk, "in that case, yeah, it's too low cut."

Bryan, You're right. I had to pay her off to get a second of time to take that picture.
Other than that, this is the only one I can get, and pretty much Harley's new natural habitat.
Actually, I'm pretty impressed, He's been away from his mama two nights now and pretty much sleeps thru until about 6 a.m, then he whines like a siren. Only piddled inside 3 times, and if you take him right out after feeding him, he does the squat and dump, wipes his ass by dragging it around on the ground, and he's ready to go back in. He's got this thing down better than either of my kids.

Cute little girl, Lance. I'd check that pup for worms.
Good hunting. LB

That was the first impression for both me, and the guy I bought him from. The sire of this litter has always done the same thing. Vet checked him over and told them that some dogs are fastidiously clean and would rather wipe their asses like that than clean themselves their normal way. All the pups have been checked and de-wormed just as a precautionary. I had a redtick once that inherited a lot of his sire's eccentricities although the two only hunted together twice their entire lives.
I've probably raised better than 600 puppies, between racing greyhounds in high school, coyote greyhounds in college and coonhounds since, and this pup, thus far, is pretty much what we call an "easy keeper". Knock on wood. That can change any day now.

Hey, Cdog how big do those feists get? I was thinking about the possibility of using a male miniture schnauzer if I could train him to stay within close quarters and come to me on command in the event that a coyote comes in close, but that may prove to be disastrous no matter how close and well trained I can get him. Im only thinking of doing this as they have an incredible tendency to bark, "little dog with a big dog complex" you know what I mean.
