Joel,

Your a madman. Didn't your film show at Cannes?

Loved it man, & your attitude along with it.

I'm a dog luver & one thing I know about dogs.........
They're all gas asses. Just tell him, "You vill learn it, and YOU vill love it."
Of course, you will have to say it with a Gestapo voice...........

Love the dog/crossbones picture!

Thanks! I just changed my avatar and didn't realize you commented on it. I'll have to repost that picture!

That dog belongs to a friend of mine and his name is Roger. I put him on the pirate flag so it would truly be a "Jolly Roger" :)

One day I will get that printed up onto a real flag.

The little black dog in the video is mine.
Her name is Roux and she's a schnauzer-poodle mix (schnoodle). I picked her up in Louisiana a year ago and finally brought her out west to enjoy the ocean.

She loves it.

Thank Goodness! I was afraid I would have to become one of those RV guys! ha ha

In the mid '70s we decided to take our yearly weeks cruise to Catalina and thought why not take Anchor our loveable Cokerpoo Mutt. (name him Anchor because first day we had him at 6 weeks old he jumped into our pool and sank like an anchor and I had to to jump in, in December, and grab him), My wifes girlfriend was going with us on the way over and flying back home on the old sea plane. Muttsy decided to get seasick all the way over and it was decided that he should fly back home with friend. If you've never seen the Catalina seaplane, it hold 8 passenger and one pilot and is of WW II vintage. When it lands the back windows are underwater. The lady at the terminal said dog would have to be placed in baggage area, that is until she saw him. She allowed him to sit on our friends lap and as the plane took off you could see his furry face looking out the window. Wish I had picture. By the way, LOVE Minnies. They got stuff that came off of Noah's Ark.

One piece of advice: Never give a dog a treat from your finger tips while pulling your hand away. Dog will tend to snap at the treat and get your fingers in the process. Either put in the palm of your hand with the hand fully open, or put it inside your fist and make the dog lick and "dig" for it. I know, my lab/pit bull has pinched my fingers enough times. (although I've taught him to take it from my fingers by telling him "easy".. but then, labs and pits are very easy to train).
