Seems I have an affinity for all things German. Currently have no German cars, but with this new addition will have had only German dogs for 10 years.

Since Chance the dog (Weimaraner) died on new year's eve 06, we've been missing having a pooch around, and now that we're on the lake it seemed a good time to give another needy dog a home.

Buster (Upland Buster, formally) is a purebred German Wirehaired Pointer. I found him at a shelter in Rhode Island. He came with full 5 generation pedigree, stud registry listing (although he's now been neutered) and some records from his first four years. He came from South Carolina originally, but he's got a coat built for new england.

So far he's very sweet - he will come, sit, stay, get in the back (of the jeep), go lay down... no barking or destruction or bad behavior... and that's just after one day of positive reinforcement. I'll start introducing a crate tonight.

My friends always marvel at my rapport with pets; hopefully the dog whispering ways will not fail me with Buster!
