 Well, now I see why you get to ride the roads at night without your wife complaining. ;D I can't ad much to this, I've had Lab's.

NTD:
Yeah Eddie, wouldn't be a pretty sight if someone messed with my wife with the dog around.  But with that being said, she works graveyards and I usually do the road cruising on the nights she works.  And being the lovely woman she is she even tags along on her days off sometimes ;)

NTD:
Frank,

You mentioned the Vizslas, My Great Grandfather, a Hungarian immigrant, bred vizslas.  He used to tell me that real hunters hunt birds.  He was an incredible man, unfortunately his health never allowed us to hunt together :'(  I'd like a Vizsla but it seems if you want a solid nerved Vizsla you have to sell body parts to afford one, they were too pretty and the pet people bred the snot out of them.  Pet and show breedings have ruined a lot of good dogs, it what happens when they forget that you breed for function and form follows...not the other way around...

Sparrow:
 My Grandpa said that the cocker spaniel was as good a small hunting dog as a guy could want back before the show people got ahold of them. I hear there are some guys bringing back the hunting cocker.  I did not know that they had started on the Visla's.  '  Frank

     Dang Nate, I wasn't going to get in this, but since you mentioned that your "GrandFather", used to say " Fuzz ", well, in that same " Era " there was also PIG..... ;D  The PO PO is fairly recent.   No, I am not ragging on de Po Leece, My family has a history, of police officers, including one in the FBI, and I had an offer to join the FBI when I got out of the Amy.   When I was a Kid, about the time your "GrandFather" was,  ::),We had an English Setter.  What a great Bird Dog he was.  We had deer dogs, and one mixed breed, we hunted with, part black and tan, and red bone, and blue tick, would point turkeys, and quail, and retrieve doves, as well hunt the heck out of deer, and was a real sweet heart.  I think if you have a good dog, that likes to hunt, and is trained well, and rewarded with lots of affection, you will not be disappointed in the results.   ;)  When I lived in the Virgin Islands, I worked with a Sheppard, and Dobermans.  All good dogs.  The Shepard was smarter, but people would ask if the Shepard would bite, and never ask that about the Dobies.  It was just automatically assumed that it would.  My Buddy had a Rottwieler, and had it for home protection down there.  It was a very smart dog.  It would lift it's claws up and just walk on it's pads, when attacking the trainer, when he would call and tell them he would come in the kitchen door.  My Buddie had to get his wife to watch him do that.  He would lift his claws while walking across the terrazzo kitchen floor, and once on the carpet, he would nail the trainer!  My Buddy had to take the kids into the bedroom, and close the door before he could spank them.  The dog wouldn't let him otherwise. They also used German Short Hair and Giant Schnauzers for guard dogs down there also.  Well give my regards to Sherriff Aiparo, or however you spell it.  I think HE Should be the head of Homeland Security!  Then you could take his place as Sherriff! 8)  They let your Wife ride with you?  Cool! 8)
