you don't always get want you want....dog
 

Wife and I made a list;
Female
Small
Older
Minimal shedding.

Let me introduce "Hank"

Male
Big
Young
Major shedder.

Wife did the Jedi mind trick on me. Hank was headed to the pound, or a life as a guard dog for a pot farm.

Oh well.

Trying to change his name to Avatar, but he won't respond.

handsome boy.

Congrats and thanks for the rescue...he looks like the Paul Newman of dogs.....very cool.

Must be the eyes....

BTW...my girlfriend just lost her Dad. His name? Yup....Hank.

Keep us posted, Cliff.....in dog thread, if possible.... :)

He'll respond eventually, keep trying.

Love to hear rescue stories.

Nice dog! Good job saving him... just my thing when I get a pet I randomly call out names (usually something I see while I'm reading) until they respond.

However I have noticed the ladies in our lives prefer to pick their name for them.

I fortunately I was able to intervene on Marshal:

Hank reminds me of my daughter's dog, Snoop (RIP). Lots of character in that face ..

looks more like a hank anyway.

He sure does look like a Hank. One syllable's better anyhow. Spend lots of time with him and enjoy your expanded family.

Wow beautiful. Congrats.

I prefer girl dogs than boy dogs, but congrats. They're all wonderful.

Fantastic looking hound!

Only Hank I know is a jumper, cleared 25'7" at Squaw Valley a few months ago.

Pretty eyes

That's a beautiful "lap dawg" you have there Cliff...well done :)!
