This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    My first "family dog" as a kid was a liver and white springer spaniel named Chipper. We had him for almost 16 years. He was one of the best companions a boy could ask for and will probably be the dog all future dogs are compared to as he set a bench mark.

    Hemi does a pretty good job though, he's really taken to "babysitting" Hunter...

    Here’s my new buddy Blue. He’s about 9 months old. My 1st Boxer. Good breed, good match for my family.

    Likes walking off with anything he shouldn’t have though.

    No garage dogs, but a garage cat here. Last year I was under the 'lark and she decided that she'd like a lap. No lap, so she just curled up on my chest.

    Karma is an American Staffordshire Terrier who I adopted (rescued) through Craigslist. She loves going for rides with the top down.

    REALLY???? :eek:
    Reminds me of a friend I had in junior high, they lived on a farmers property, the farmers dog had a litter of pups (reddish orange fur, the breed escapes me right now) Id sit in the field and they'd climb, crawl, and trample all over me, I loved it:p

    Most of the dogs compete in Nationwide dog sports... Whippet racing straight (150-200 yards) and oval racing (270-300 yards) and flyball (dog relay racing with a Christmas tree). In flyball the team finished 5th and sixth in the US and overall like 7th quickest team in the World for the past two years

    The whippets were clocked over 38-42+ mph. We did some lure coursing at one point as one was competing for the number 1 in the country.

    Before that I did agility. Other dogs also do dock diving.. and some hunt - go to ground and did herding. When I was in PA farmers would always ask for my Jack's to get rid of mice, ground hogs, possums..etc..

    Keeping them in shape is a job in itself. From walks, hill work, casual swim, Sprint swim, treadmill, core work etc.. they are fed raw.

    I have included a shot of 12 dogs being walked every morning.. Of photographer stop by to see what was going on and she asked to take some photos.
