 "LADY"

This is a story about lady (see The Greatest Dog That Ever Live, below) my Siberian Husky. She been dead for a number of years now. But this is a story about how her life was saved and how i came to get her.

Two older peoples decided they wanted a big dog. So they look around and see a ad in the paper, about this dog. The peoples that had her, wanted to sell her for $50.00. So these peoples phone them up and found out where they live and when they could go and take a look at her. So the day came and they went to that place for to see her.

So the man came out and they talk for awhile, then he said, the dog is tie in the barn. So they started to the barn and the man who own her bend down and pick up a long pick of wood. So the woman ask, what with a piece of wood, in your hand. He said, she is a very mean dog and if you are not very careful she with bite you.

So they got to the barn and they went in and the dog was tied in the corner. She was snarling and not happy at all. The man who own her yell at her and was going to hit her, but the other man stop him, so he did not hit her. At this time she was about eight mouth old. The woman said, what is her name, so he told her. The woman called her by name and put her hand out to her and started walking toward her very slowly. The man who own her said, she will bite you, but the man who was with the woman said, my wife know what she is doing.

So after the awhile the woman got up to her and talk to her and petted her. Then the woman undone the cow chain from the wall. Then she lead her outside where you could get a better look at her. She was a nice dog, but she was very poor. She was not getting enough to eat. So then the woman said, we will take her.

So they went to the car and the woman and the dog got in, then the man got in. Then the owner of the dog said, oh yes are not you forgetting something. like paying me for her. The woman look at him and said, we are not paying you for this dog, but we are taking her. He said, i will phoned the police. The woman said, go ahead and phone them, but you will be the one in trouble not us. Because when the police see how you care for this dog, you will be in very big trouble. They also told him he was not fix to have a animal on the place. He decided not to phoned the police.

They then took her home. She was scare of everything and she never left the woman side. They had her for about two mouths and they decided they could not keep her. She shed to much and the man had bad lung trouble, from something that happen in the great war.

So one day that woman drove into my driveway and got out and she had this dog on a lease. So i went out and we talk for a bit and then she handed the lease to me. So i took it and said, what? She said we can not keep her but we know you have a way with dogs, so if you want her you can have her. But she said, there is one thing, she hate men, so be careful.

So i took her and within a week she was eating out of my hand. She was about 10 mouth old when i got her and she live to be abit over 17 years old. She was a great dog and she put her life on the line for me more than once, in her life time. She was never tie and she live in the house all her life.

"SPITE-FIRE FIND FOOD"

This is a story about Spite-fire. This story happen many years ago. He had been dead for a numbers of years now. Spite-fire was a small (20 lbs.), black dog. He was name Spite-fire because the name seem to fix him.

So this day i was outside and my dogs was outside with me. This truck pull into the driveway and drive down to the house and stop, and then the two peoples got out. I knew these two peoples quite well. They would come to my place a lot. Now in the cab of the truck, i could see the bucket of KFC. So i told them that they had better roll their window up or one of my dogs would have it. They said, no way, they can not jump that high. I told them again to put their window up but they would not. lol.

So we was standing there talking about something, when all of the sudden Spite-fire took on the run for a truck and make a leaf and landed in the cab of the truck. We all yell at him but that did not good. lol. He grab a bucket of KFC and jump out of the other window and took down in the woods as fast as he could go.

When all of my others dogs seen what he had, they took down in the woods behind him. I think they had a picini with all that KFC. That man and the woman said, we are going to kill him. I said, oh no you are not, you lay one hand on him and you will be taking me on. They then demanded that i pay for the buckel of KFC. I laugh and said no way. I said, you was told what would happen but you did not listen so it your fault. From that day onward, when they came to my place, they made sure they put their truck window up. lol.

"SHOPPING WITH MY DOG"

This story takes place many many years ago. This dog been dead for about 20 years now. His name was Shadow and he was a purebred miniture poodle. Whenever i went to buy my grocery (food), he would go with me. Back then you was allow to take a dog in the store with you, but now you can not. We would go in and look around and get everything i wanted, then we would go up to the counter and pay for it. Sometimes a woman at the counter would give him a treat. He was very good in the store. Then we would walk back to where i was staying.

When we got back home, i would lay all of the food on the bed. Then he would jump up on the bed and look everything over. If there was a piece of cheese in the food, he would take that and away he would go, and lay down and eat it. He love cheese and chocate cake, but his favorite food of all time was KFC. When i got KFC, i had to watch where i put it or it was gone. lol.

"SHADOW GOES HUNTING"

Shadow was a poodle and he love to go hunting with me. In the fall of the year, whenever i would go hunting i would take him with me. If i shot something he would go and get it for me and then i would put it in my kit-bag. He knew where all of my traps was and he would  try to get there before me. If there was something in the trap, he would be very happy, as if to say, look what i got.  He would chase rabbits but he would not bark, so it was hard to know where he was.

When we would get done hunting and checking my traps, he seem to know. Then he would come to me and he would want to carry something home. So depending on what i got that day, i would give him something for to carry home. Sometimes it was a rabbit, but he had to carry something home. So when we got home, he would go in the house with his catch and walk around showing everyone what he got. Everyone told him he was a great white hunter and i sometimes wonder if he understood them. When all had seen it and make of him, then he would bring it to me and lay it at my feet. As if to say, my job is now done.

There was not to much left of it. So my poodle decided he would go and look around the old boat house, while i was fishing for bass.

So after awhile i look behind me and shadow my poodle, had found a muskrat. It was in a corner and shadow was in front of it, looking at it.  So then the muskrat made a run for a river and my poodle attack it. They both was about the same size and weight. They fought and they fought, untill they could fight no more.

I then decided that was enought of that and went and put a lead on my poodle, but oh no, he was not going to go. But i finally got him out of there. Then the muskrat got to the water and swam away. Both of them was mud from head to paw. But neither one of them was hurt. Then i took my dog to the river and wash him off abit and we headed for home.

A Day A Bird Came In My House

This happen to me a few years back now. I was sitting in my easy chair, halp to sleep. All of my Siberian huskies dogs, was laying on the floor around me sound to sleep. When all of the sudden, in the other room, i heard a sound of the window break and stuff going everywhere. My sleeping dogs was not to sleep now. They all made for that room as fast as they could go.

And then i heard them attack, whatever it was. I got up and got my shotgun, because at this point, i had no idea of what it was. Plus there had been a cougar, hanging around my place to. So i thought that maybe a cougar had came threw the widow.

And then after awhile everything stop, and one of the dogs came in to where i was. And she was feathers from head to toes. So then i went out in that room, and there was feathers everywhere. It was a real mess out there.

As far as i was able to find out, this bird that came threw the window was a very large hawk or a eagle. I  had some hens at that time out running loose. And i think he was after one of my hens and misjudged, when to pull up, and that was why he came in threw the window.

But from that day onward, when my dogs seen any big birds flying outside, they would watch them. One day a hen hawf was after one of my hens, and one of my dogs took for it and she jump for it. She did not get it but she did get a mouthfull of feathers. lol.
