I'm a long time lurker both here and on the AFB group and it takes dogs to
make me come out of hiding. Now that I'm out of my shell I'll try and stay
out. My wife and I are both foodies
My family and I are proudly owned but a Black Lab, A siberian Husky and an
Alaskan Husky. all rescued and are rulers of the house. What an alarm
system, the lab sounds like a bear when anybody comes to the door and the
huskies just stare at you with those blue eyes never blinking. I always
thought the lab was the protective one until a very aggressive 100+lb German
Shepard looked at my 4 year old daughter like a TV dinner.. The lab ran to
me for protection and the huskies practically tore that Shepard apart
protecting my girl. They were even tied up at the time.
