I advise you all stick with smaller dogs

For more than 30 years, I have had dogs in my life. At times, as many as 7 at once when the homeless were to get the needle before their time. (Can't have that)
We always stuck with the smaller breeds, all sheltie or border collie...along with one little doxie.

5 months ago, I had to have a rottweiler after a friends bitch gave birth. She is a great dog actually and has never spent a night crated (did not need it). She is quite smart and listens quite well for a 6.5 month old pup.
But...
Being large, when she plays, now nearing the 90 pound mark, she tends to "throw" toys in the air.

(You know where this is going, don't you?)

I saw it happening but it was too late. She got a hold of the brand new knotted rope toy and swung it into the air...

...right into the midbass driver of my MET7!

Oh the humanity!

Stick with smaller breeds guys, this could happen to you!

Mt10425,
Thanks but this was some time ago. If I ever get out of my apartment and back into a house, I think I'll get me a RR.

Csontos,
It's best to age is with someone or something like a pet you love. I hope the two of you age like a great wine in a bottle: one can't do it without the other.

All the best,
Nonoise

Brownsfan, Mans best friends are noted for their fine taste and discernment in matters musical.
Many studies have shown a marked canine preference for Mozart and Schuber above all others !

I have to comment on mofimadness comment on the Yorkie liking Steely Dan. I have a Scottish Fold (Chloe) that comes into the room and will sit and listen when she hears Elton John

My bestest friend in the world, Jackson, a yellow lab/sheppard wandered into my garage as a newborn pup, he adopted me! After walking the neighborhood, put up flyers, nobody claimed him. Since I had no interest in owning a dog at the time, I put him up for adoption on a local website. Within a few weeks, I started to get inquiries, but it was too late, I told everyone that he'd already found a home!;) Jackson loves retrieving inside and outside but he knows not to run close to the system! If his ball ever even rolls close to it he'll look at me apprehensively and wait for me to tell him it's ok to get it! Such a good dog!!

Forgot to mention, Chopper runs over and starts jumping on my arm when I go to choose a cd, I think in an effort to deter me. I like my music loud. But not always. When he hears Donovan's To Susan On The West Coast Waiting, he begins to howl. Every time. It's hilarious. I think it's the harmonica.
