Golden pee is good, better than red Fred.

At eighty I find a half hour watching my Springer go nuts chasing a tennis ball I can't throw very far any more and watching him jump over big waves and for a while I'm a kid again. Then while catching him so we can go home reality sets in. He seems to know when the last throw of the day is and he doesn't want to leave the beach. Usually I have to have someone else catch him by the collar. He will go to anyone but me when it's time to go home.

What happens when you just walk away from him and pay him no mind and walk back to your truck and just sit down? Or walk over to a bench and just sit there and start to read or something?
Most dogs don't like it when you do that and they will come over to you and see what's goin on with you. Why aren't you payin attention to ME anymore.

He ain't buying it. I have gone to the truck and he does come up to the parking lot but won't come near me I have gotten peed off a couple of times and started the truck and taken off down the road for a few hundred yards and look in my mirror and watch him. He just turns and heads back to the beach for more fun. Anybody can call him
and he will run right up to them I let them know the deal and when they grab his collar I go get him. You should see the dirty look I get from him when we head home. He is a hoot.

Lost my dog after 16 years. Never replaced her. Your dog is sounding pretty good to me now.
What’s the dogs name?

He can't print what he calls the dog when it won't come to him.

All of my dogs have Bible names, his name is Luke or his fancy name on his papers is Mingo Blackie Red River
The first time I got him at 12 weeks I took him down by the river to see if he was afraid of water and he jumped in and started to swim across the river. I was screaming at him thinking he's gone an alligator may get him. He finally turned around after about a hundred yards. I knew then he was going to have a mind of his own. He is so entertaining makes me laugh all the time.

Mauwehu when i met my wife she had a dog. About 18months later we had to put the old boy down. I got her a pup for Christmas. She was 12 when we lost her. I said no more. 2 months later i came home to a new pup. Wife said the girls got her for us. Couple yrs later it came out. The 3 of them went to pick her out. I tried not to like that dog but it didn't work. At the age of 10 we had to put her down. Happened on a Monday evening. Tue morn at 330 am i woke up n new i needed a dog inmy life
