he's missing the metal nose cover in that pic. the dog has some spot on his nose also part of the reason why he was named that.

doing much better today, all dogs got to run around loose in the backyard today get familiar with each other and no inside the house markings at all today!

John, you have a lot more patience than I do. Tycho lucked out when you took him home.
How was the motocross yesterday?

not bad, the CD is a lot more loose and slower off the line then the 124 and took a little getting used to. Finished 6 seconds behind the fastest time of the day.

Please this dog only has today and tomorrow or it will be euthanized." He was extremly friendly with the other dogs and just loved the attention from us. Hard to believe that goat story if it was actually true.

We have 4 dogs already, and figured, what's one more? If it saves him from being put down, it was worth it.
I've had milk goats and dogs. Some dogs cannot help but chase livestock. It's hard-wired just as some dogs will kill a rat on sight.

A large goat could defend itself but if the goat was young or the dog extremely determined to attack then there is no question but that the dog could do the deed.
