We have 2 dogs, male and female, both spayed/neutered.

She still goes into heat about twice a year, likes to casually walk over and stick her Bob Costas in his face. Frequent attempts to berkeley occur.

Perhaps the funniest part is sometimes he will just be walking around, err...thrusting...as he is walking. We call it the hump walk, always good for a laugh.

Our female husky will "talk" (kind of like howling/grunting at a reasonable volume) if she is really trying to tell me something, like needing to go out. She will put her paw on me, and "talk". She only does it sometimes, or if is really excited, so I like to mimic her and keep her going for a few minutes.

I used to have an Australian Shepard that would retrieve anything. Kick the basketball over the fence, down the street and over the hedge, she would nose it back with great enthusiasm. Baseballs, golfballs, hats, litter...anything that suddenly left a human was returned. Gust of wind and 3 blown hats at a swap meet was her Disneyland!

She would hang out at the tennis courts and was very popular for fetching stray balls while a mild "NO' would plant her so that play could resume.

One day I happened to hurl an 8 pound sledge hammer about 60 feet away and I turned to try the "staring with evil thoughts" method of stump removal..

After about 5 minutes I get a nudge and this 10 pound dog had dragged the hammer back across uneven tall grass, roots and gravel to return this odd fetch toy. My brother, who did not witness the event asked why me why the dog was panting so hard. I simply replied with a "watch this!" and hurled the hammer once more.

Small dog looked at the hammer, looked at my brother, looked at me...... Then basically told me to go berkley myself and went to lay down under a bush.

I'm gladi got the XL model. My Aussie is 80 lbs and is in intense training to retrieve beer. So far, she can open the fridge.

And Alex, thats funny, because the north side natives always want to axe me questions.

Australian Shepards are God's pickup trucks.
