On the up side - she comes most of the time when you call .. On the down side - she comes without brakes.  OUCH !

I love that pic.  If it ever stops raining here I will try and get a picture of what I see when I whistle.  I think we should all get pics of our freight trains coming at us.  That would be awesome.

i must have looked like such a dork when i went to get my pup. i met her parents and the other dane bitch they had and when the opened the doors they literally "released the hounds" they came full speed at me and my man, now im used to horses doing this so i instinctually said "whoa! whoa!!" yeah ummm someone forgot to tell me, theyre dogs, not horses! lol

Most definitely.  Sierra likes to come from behind and knock you on your behind.  She takes your legs right out from underneath you.  All we have to do is turn and look at her though, and she veers off to one side.  It's like once she knows you know she's coming, all the fun is out of it.

Quite often, big dogs don't come with very good (or any) brakes. We've had a few collisions with Rosie in the past. Lately she's learned how to veer to the side, just as she's almost about to run us over, to avoid a painful crash (mostly for us).
