New Dog for the Corps?

Recommended Posts

I was playing with our dog - Toy Poodle - this evening. Throwing tennis balls around, on the couch, behind the couch, through the front door out to the patio, smacking them with a cane to send 'em down the hall, and using the crook of the cane to snag them back to me.

A year ago she was scared of canes and the like. Tonight she was attacking it as I was using it to hook the tennis balls....feinting, lunging, reaching over, under, trapping the cane with a paw. And chasing the ball - will lunge from cover, anticipate where I'm going to hit it, figure out how to get it when it ends up in or behind flower pots, on a shoe rack.

My wife, Lisa, said, "She's a Marine Poodle." I looked at her with a :huh: look.

"Well, she's intelligent, aggressive, quick to learn, adaptable, tenacious, loyal, tough, ....a Marine Poodle!"

Makes sense to me.

This isn't her, but,
