utvolman99 Posted January 16, 2004 Author Share Posted January 16, 2004 Sounds like a great dog. Keep an eye on the growl' date=' but remember that she's actually protecting you. It's a good sign that she listens and settles down when you tell her it's all right. - Joe[/quote'] Well, actually I dont realy mind if she growls at strangers. As long as she has no desire to bite. It happened again tonight when some friends of mine came in from out of town. The first guy to get to the door just knocked and walked right in. Bailey met him with her head swung low and a deep growl. I just said "Its okay Bailey, thats Greg" . She instantly started wagging her tail and went to him to be pet. Also, if I am the one answering the door she just acts normal. It has only been when people show up that I have not acnowledged.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Fuel ZX Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Thanks man she's pretty sweet... I dont know what she's pushin but when I go to the front door and whistle she makes it from the neighbors rose bushes to my front door in about 5.2 seconds! Not bad at all. Got to take her for walks...open her up a bit and see how she fairs to the competition. Maybe add a couple mods as well...perhaps a direct port cat-scent injection system?

MTenneZ Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 With the shape of the head and ears I could see why someone might think there is some wolf DNA in there. Nothing wrong with that, pretty dog. Let her eat the cats, who needs them anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VRJoe Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 No doubt about, great rescue. It sounds like she's very smart and darn near perfect as a guard dog. - Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silicone boy Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Those Australian herding dogs (border collies, australian shepards, heelers to a lesser extent) are the most promiscuous dogs on the planet. Seems like everyone has a mix with one of these breeds. Great dogs, though. Smart and obedient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if the competition in my neighborhood is up to snuff but but it does seem like all the male dogs are always right off her back bumper! She is at the shop today getting modified I feel certan that this will help put some space between them. Also, I suppose it will save on a little weight!
