Re: Dog Breeds- 'the list'
Marty,

Years ago I had one like that come after me from behind while I was outside tapping on the fascia and wood trim with my pole (I used a wooden tool handle about 5 feet long with a rubber table leg on one end and a weed puller probe epoxied into the opposite end), I heard the dog and turned around just in time to lower the pole at the oncoming dog ... the dog swallowed the (fortunately) rubber end first ... all the way down until the dog choked on it, spit and coughed, and ran away yelping, cowering in the rear corner of the yard and afraid to come in my direction.

Too bad I had not lowered the sharp probe end ... it would have been one dead dog on the end of a bar-b-que spit as that probe end would have torn its throat to pieces.
