Bill,
Thanks, I appreciate your insight and will forward on to my son Bill.
His Golden really likes people and kids in particular.
My daughter-in-law is a special ed teacher who had 'behavior
disorders' classrooms until this year.  She is probably better with
the dog than he is, certainly better reading the dog.
But all good advice and insights from you.
A few more things about the breed. They can be quite reticent around 
strangers, which is a huge temperament difference from what you would be 
getting from a Golden. I think with Rotties, it is really important to 
meet the parents and see if you like them, as the apple tends to fall 
quite near the tree with dogs. They tend to be accepting of people that 
their people are accepting of, but an approaching stranger who his 
person doesn't know may not be well received. Lots of socialization 
early on is really important with Rotties. One of the problems that 
Jester plagues us with is because he didn't get a lot of early 
socialization. A good way to get your Rottie to accept a person faster 
is to take the person's hand in yours and take it down to the dog's 
nose, showing the dog your hand, then turning it to the other person's 
hand, and then hold both hands in front of the dog's nose for a few 
moments. The dog gets both scents and will tend to discriminate the 
scent of the other person as a good thing.


You might find this interesting. Apparently there is a link between 
black  tan coloration and what is called resource protectiveness, 
which is what gives breeds like Rotties, Dobermans, GSDs and other 
breeds their advantage as guards. A friend of mine has a black and tan 
male Chihuahua. The dog is an excellent guard, given that he weighs all 
of 6 pounds. I stay out of his way, I'm not part of his Clan, and he 
attacks and bites pretty much anyone who isn't family. Really, he is an 
extreme example of black and tan temperament.


All three of my Rotties have been very good with kids. The breeder that 
Jester came from had 5 Rotties living with three young kids in a not 
overly large house. When we did birthday party shows with the kennel 
club, I would often find a little kid to give Leica to for a while. It 
didn't matter how badly the child gave commands, Leica would do what she 
was told to do. As long as you could coach the kid into saying Leica, 
Heel at the beginning, it didn't matter what happened after that. She 
had been told to heel, and that was what she did until told otherwise.

She would obey commands that were inadvertently said by the television.

One time at a class I was in, the instructor told us to teach our dogs a 
new trick for the next class. The next morning as I was getting dressed, 
Leica was sitting beside me, and I took a sock and put it over her nose.

There was my trick.
A few times of saying Leica, Sock, and putting the sock on her nose, 
and she was pushing her nose into the opened sock. After that, it was a 
simple case of combining it into a recall, and the next week, I sat my 
dog on one side of the room, walked across the room, held a sock open 
and called Leica, Sock. She dutifully came across the room, stuck her 
nose in the sock and sat in front of me with a really put upon expression.

It was the best trick ever.
Soft female dogs are really easy to get along with.

best

bill

Point of clarification!

Are Acid Trip the ones that look like what you can do to Polaroid 600 
print with a pencil eraser or the ones that aren't tulips with the silk 
scarf laying in amongst them?


I apologize if this is a duplicate post. I'm getting the Yahoo An error

20 years is getting up there in cat years..

We had 2 Abyssinians that lived to be 17 or 18 years and were told by the

Other cats we've had didn't live nearly that long.

Dude, the beauty of the PDML is that it is a virtual pub, with the added 
beauty that one can participate in several different conversations at 
the same time, and can take a conversation off list if it goes off 
topic. Changing the default to reply to person rather than  reply to 
list would result in confusion and suicide.
Why can't you just leave well enough alone?

Every email list I've ever been on has had reply-to-list as the
default. Why would you participate in a mailing list and not want
replies sent to the... list? Makes no sense.

Thank you Zos. 
We came home from our cruise to find him a full blown diabetic. After 3
months, many $ and insulin injections later, he is now almost recovered
(cats are unique that way). But as a result he gets even more spoiled than
before. That used to be my lounge chair on the balcony :-)

I can see how one might accidentally slip and send a private message
to the list – been there, done that – but if I compare the ratio of
private emails to public (entire list) emails I've sent in reply to
PDML messages it's well over 100:1. 

Signing on to an email list and then replying to individuals as
standard practice seems like walking onto a stage before an audience
of 1000 people and then shutting off the microphone to the P.A. and
making a cell phone call to a single audience member. It might be
useful on occasion but it's a bizarre default setting.

Very cute.
My son's 130 pound Golden Retriever is almost 10 and slowed by the
heat and age.  It will be a sad day when he passes, and they'll need
another dog.  It will be hard to find one with as much personality and
friendly disposition.  Maybe another Golden, but not so big next time.
 This one's a giant!
I know you train dogs and favor Rotties.  I wonder about disposition
with their fearsome reputation.

  This one's a giant!

Goldens can be very big dogs. Fortunately, they are also very soft tempered.

I know you train dogs and favor Rotties.  I wonder about disposition
with their fearsome reputation.

Intact male Rotties need a very strong willed owner, as they are 
generally a pretty dominant breed. Having said that, Jester is a 
dominant asshole, high drive dog from a high drive litter. As such, he 
is somewhat of a special case in this regard. At he same time, he 
doesn't have a mean bone in his body, he just wants his own way, and is 
prepared to do whatever doggie thing he needs to do to get it. A weak 
willed owner who is in the habit of letting the dog make his own 
decisions would be what we call a fail of an owner.


Our last male (Rollei) had a very gentle disposition, was relatively 
willing to please, and for the most part, was on the same page as we were.



Most Rotties that get in trouble do so because they have idiot owners 
who don't understand the level of engagement they have to have with 
their dog. When I am out with my dog, that is all I am doing. I'm not 
talking on my cell phone, or texting or really doing much of anything 
other than being with my dog. This is quite different from when I had 
Leica. I could trust her to not cause anyone any problems. Jester, OTOH, 
is quite dog aggressive (Bella, our Belgian Shepherd is worse), and will 
also get very aggressive with anyone who he thinks might be a threat. 
Hold his gaze for more than a few seconds at your own risk.
As I said, he is a special case, a very exceptional dog, but not one for 
a weak handler, and honestly, not really a good dog in public.


Investigate your breeder carefully, Rotties, while not as prone to 
genetic problems as Goldens, are prone to a few cancers, as well as 
elbow and hip dysplasia, and also, take the time to investigate your 
puppy's lineage.
Had I done this prior to getting Jester, I would have asked for a 
different dog than the high drive male pick. After having him for a few 
months, I finally got around to tracing his lineage. Amazingly, I was 
able to trace his sire's side back to 1912 or thereabouts. Every male on 
his sire's side had a Schutzhund title, and his line had been used for 
all sorts of guard work in Germany, including guarding POW and 
concentration camps during WWII.

He's a tough dog from a line of tough dogs.

A good starter Rottweiler would be a soft tempered female. Leica (my 
first Rottie) was such a dog. Very smart, wanted to please, and didn't 
like to displease. As such, she was easy to train, and never made the 
same mistake twice (and only made a few mistakes in her nearly 11 year 
life).


I would recommend the breed to anyone with the following caveats:
*If you are not an experienced owner, pick the softest female you can 
from the litter. You will end up with a dog that acts sort of like a 
Labrador, except calmer and with a lot more brains.
*If you are an experienced owner, but haven't owned a guard breed 
before, a soft male would be an OK choice, be prepared to put the puppy 
well and truly in it's place the first time it steps out of line and you 
will likely never have a problem again.
*If you are an experienced owner, with extensive experience with guard 
breeds, then by all means, choose a drivey male. They are a lot of fun, 
and the rewards are tremendous, but they have to be handled with care 
around people who aren't experienced with dogs. They will push their 
boundaries, so it is very important to be ready, willing and ABLE to put 
the dog in his place at a moment's notice.


In all cases, Rotties need some sort of job to keep them occupied. They 
are a very smart breed, and they get bored easily. Like all bored dogs, 
they can get destructive.
Fortunately, they are quite easy to keep engaged. They like obedience 
work, and this should be started the same day that they come into the 
house. Jester carries my camera gear in a backpack when we are out. It 
gives him something to concentrate on, and it keeps him settled. Don't 
just take your dog for a walk, do some formal obedience training for a 
few minutes, and then walk for a while, and then do some more obedience.
Find out what sort of reward system makes your dog happy, and use it. 
Leica was good with a tickle on the ear and being told she done good. 
Jester, being a lot drivier, needs more engagement from me. A nice game 
of tug turns his crank quite nicely, and keeps him very happy, and very 
willing to work. If you aren't physically up to the task of playing tug 
with a 125 or so pound dog with a lot of determination, a high drive 
male might not be the best choice,

Bill,
Thanks, I appreciate your insight and will forward on to my son Bill.
His Golden really likes people and kids in particular.
My daughter-in-law is a special ed teacher who had 'behavior
disorders' classrooms until this year.  She is probably better with
the dog than he is, certainly better reading the dog.
But all good advice and insights from you.

 cell phone, or texting or really doing much of anything other than being
 with my dog. This is quite different from when I had Leica. I could trust
 her to not cause anyone any problems. Jester, OTOH, is quite dog aggressive
 (Bella, our Belgian Shepherd is worse), and will also get very aggressive
 with anyone who he thinks might be a threat. Hold his gaze for more than a
 few seconds at your own risk.
 As I said, he is a special case, a very exceptional dog, but not one for a
 weak handler, and honestly, not really a good dog in public.

 Investigate your breeder carefully, Rotties, while not as prone to genetic
 problems as Goldens, are prone to a few cancers, as well as elbow and hip
 dysplasia, and also, take the time to investigate your puppy's lineage.
 Had I done this prior to getting Jester, I would have asked for a different
 dog than the high drive male pick. After having him for a few months, I
 finally got around to tracing his lineage. Amazingly, I was able to trace
 his sire's side back to 1912 or thereabouts. Every male on his sire's side
 had a Schutzhund title, and his line had been used for all sorts of guard
 work in Germany, including guarding POW and concentration camps during WWII.
 He's a tough dog from a line of tough dogs.

 A good starter Rottweiler would be a soft tempered female. Leica (my first
 Rottie) was such a dog. Very smart, wanted to please, and didn't like to
 displease. As such, she was easy to train, and never made the same mistake
 twice (and only made a few mistakes in her nearly 11 year life).

 I would recommend the breed to anyone with the following caveats:
 *If you are not an experienced owner, pick the softest female you can from
 the litter. You will end up with a dog that acts sort of like a Labrador,
 except calmer and with a lot more brains.
 *If you are an experienced owner, but haven't owned a guard breed before, a
 soft male would be an OK choice, be prepared to put the puppy well and truly
 in it's place the first time it steps out of line and you will likely never
 have a problem again.
 *If you are an experienced owner, with extensive experience with guard
 breeds, then by all means, choose a drivey male. They are a lot of fun, and
 the rewards are tremendous, but they have to be handled with care around
 people who aren't experienced with dogs. They will push their boundaries, so
 it is very important to be ready, willing and ABLE to put the dog in his
 place at a moment's notice.

 In all cases, Rotties need some sort of job to keep them occupied. They are
 a very smart breed, and they get bored easily. Like all bored dogs, they can
 get destructive.
 Fortunately, they are quite easy to keep engaged. They like obedience work,
 and this should be started the same day that they come into the house.
 Jester carries my camera gear in a backpack when we are out. It gives him
 something to concentrate on, and it keeps him settled. Don't just take your
 dog for a walk, do some formal obedience training for a few minutes, and
 then walk for a while, and then do some more obedience.

Interesting -- even before the various lists I've been started changing
their policies around a decade ago, I'd say that at least half the lists
I've been on were not reply-to list.  As for why, aside from the issue
about boo-boos with intended private messages, it's a way to control list
volume.  Another reason is that some mailing lists have restricted access
and anyone not on the list participating in the conversation needs to be
cc'd, and the Reply-To header mucks with that.


I can see how one might accidentally slip and send a private message
to the list - been there, done that - but if I compare the ratio of
private emails to public (entire list) emails I've sent in reply to
PDML messages it's well over 100:1.


That's almost certainly true for me for all mailing lists I've been on.
But the point is that the cost of sending a private e-mail public is
also much higher, and I've seen a lot of mildly embarrassing, some
moderately embarrasing, and a few outright damaging (e.g. disclosing
major secrets).  I don't think it's 100:1 in that direction, but I also
don't think it's a slam dunk that the cost/benefit analysis is totally
oriented toward reply-to list on this one ground.

(I do realize, of course, that reply-to sender doesn't completely prevent
stupid disclosure of private/secret info, one only needs to look at
damnyouautocorrect.com to prove otherwise.)

 Dude, the beauty of the PDML is that it is a virtual pub, with the
 added beauty that one can participate in several different
 conversations at the same time, and can take a conversation off list
 if it goes off topic. Changing the default to reply to person rather
 than  reply to list would result in confusion and suicide.
 Why can't you just leave well enough alone?

 Really?  That explains why my other lists have died, then.  /sarcasm

I'm on an Old (woodworking) Tools list that changed to
reply-to-sender. I hate it. (I also think that moving communications
off-list, by default, is not good for the long term health of the
list.) I can't speak to the percentage of mailing lists that default
one way or the other.

beauty that one can participate in several different conversations at

Reply to list is superior. My error was in responding to a threaded
conversation. It happens. Without reply to list much of what we say
would just go back to the person we are responding to and not the
list. I know this would get me almost every single time. Hey if you're
dumb enough to post to a public list something you definitely don't
want the whole list to see, well you get what you deserve because
you've just proven yourself to be a dumbass. Then again I'm not one to
say something to another person that I would be afraid to have
repeated. Better to just be that way in general in everything you do.
Can we get back to perverted jokes or derailing every serious
conversation into absurdity or something? :)

 FS: Pentax K-7 body, low shutter count (2,295), EX- condition.
 Purchased from a list member (but I don't remember who!). Includes printed
 manual, original box, strap, new non-Pentax battery and non-Pentax 
 charger.
 $225.

 Pentax DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL WR lens, EX+ condition. I had bought
 this lens new and sent it back to Pentax before the warranty was up 
 because
 of sub-par performance. They calibrated it to factory specs and it now
 performs very, very well for this kit lens! A weather resistant lens, 
 it's a
 great match on the weather-resistant K-7. $100.

 Tamron SP 24-135mm  f/3.5-5.6 macro AF aspherical (IF) lens, includes
 front and rear caps and Tamron soft zippered case, EX condition. This is a
 film-era lens and is therefore technically full frame. Balances well on 
 the
 K-7 body though it isn't weatherproof. $125.
 It's this lens, for reference:
 http://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/tamron-sp-af-24-135mm-f-3-5-5-6-ad-aspherical-if.html

 Combine the K-7 with one or both lenses for a package deal and price.

 Photos available upon request.

I've found that the combitation of having met a number of the members of 
this list combined with the fact that anything I send will be read by 
them tends to keep some of my less savoury posting habits in check.
