Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Got a new phone this week, so enjoy some higher-resolution pics of the dogs...

Loki loves his tennis ball:

Jack, what behavioral changes can I expect out of Dog_k as she gets older? I grew up with golden retrievers whom generally didn't age well.. I saw videos of a friends 13 year old boxer and hes chasing his damn tail till he gets dizzy and falls over. Loki looks goofy as fuck still. Im sure they act older, but would you say to a less extent than other breeds?

He's going to be six this summer and acts pretty much the same as he did when he was younger, just lazier.
 
Here's another picture that basically sums up boxers:

Took him to my friend's place after we were out back in the dog park drinking Saturday night and it started to rain on us. This was after a fairly long day for Loki, where I took him to a local brewery (they allow dogs off leash in their tap room, so there are always at least half a dozen of them there on the weekends) and he was out and about for several hours. He quickly stole my the bed of my friend's fat corgi mix even though it was at least three sizes too small and there was a much bigger dog bed about five feet away. Loki gives no fucks.

Here's him at the brewery in question along with his mastiff buddy:

I took that pic near the end of our time there, so he was pretty worn out. However, he spent about 90% of the time running from table to table being an attention whore. There were a couple of kids there (he, like most boxers, loves kids) with their parents, and he played pretty hard with them before he finally crashed. He also begged for food whenever people had it, as there was a food truck outside.

All in all, a good day for Loki.

And here's a bonus pic of Sandor playing with his German Shepherd puppy friend Zella that I took today to send to my parents (who love Shepherds):

I call bullshit.

No no, I was boiling water and stepped outside for a cigarette. 10 minutes later people were clearing out of the building. Little by little I realized that it was my floor, then my fault. Boiling fucking water. This is why I dont cook. I called my dad while the complex was on fire, 18 years old.. "Dad, I uh.. complex is on fire.. No i did it.. On Accident." "What the fuck do you want me to do about it, I'm in Cleveland?" "ok bye.' "Mom, I.. there's a fire". "Very funny". "No, like.. I dont know what to do, shits on fire and its my fault". "Very funny, I'm at work, goodbye".

To be fair, i would regularly fuck with my parents. Told my dad I was gay a handful of times, made him watch that pedophile movie. got mad at him once and put gay porn as the computer background, called my dad at work with a voice effector and pretended like i was kidnapping myself, Told girlfriends and parents I was joining the military and kept it a secret until now because I didnt want them to convince me otherwise and that I was leaving hte next day, Told people in S.D. i was moving back home, told girlfriends i was breaking up with them and jking.. My first gf thought I was joking when I told her I wanted to break up. Idk

I was out doing yard work with Ron Burgandy and he was trying to get me to play with him. Well I had just recently cleared all the sticks out of the back yard so he was running around looking for one to grab. Little dude grabs an entire fallen tree branch and starts dragging it to me. Then he looks at me like, "You gonna throw this bitch or what?"
 
Just dropped off our boy Fred at the vet to get his balls chopped. Pull out some of the leftover puppy teeth too. Pick up between 3 and 4. Real quiet in my office today (work out of home).

I think you're a sociopath.
 
Looking at the other two measures, we find that cat owners are relatively low in dominance. People who are high on dominance are generally described as being forceful, assertive, persistent, selfassured, and self-confident. They are the people who stand out in social gatherings as opposed to people who are low in dominance that come across as being more timid, bashful, shy, and unaggressive. The final dimension that I looked at was trust, and cat owners appear to be fairly trusting. People high on this dimension are often described as obliging, modest, straightforward, and “good sports.” People low on this dimension can be more suspicious and manipulative.

The general pattern that comes out of both studies is that dog owners are more social, interactive and accepting. One dog person’s explanation of this was: “You have to have a good sense of humor to successfully own dogs.” Contrast this to cat owners (remember this is people who prefer cats exclusively) who are more introverted, self-contained, and interact less socially.

Cat owners scientifically confirmed to be betas.

Couldn't resist. :chuckles:
