Darlene and her rope toy

[iluvk9]

Actually, this tire has been around for years, but everyone lost interest. I put it on a rope for her.


Truman is afraid of her and won't take anything she has.



Truman and Harley try to play with it.


Just for size reference. If you look REAL HARD you can see Truman standing behind Lenny and Harley.

Truman Rules

What a cute bunch!!

Looks like the rope definately brought that toy to life for them!!! Seeing Truman with the rest of your crew definately puts his size into perspective- he is HUGE!!! You do have a great looking crew, Joyce (and I am jealous of your living lawn- mine is mostly dirt)!!

Wowsers!! You weren't kidding. Truman is HUGE and beautiful!!

I always thought Harley was a "large dog". He is half of Truman.

Thank you. My lawn is really green weeds. I always say when Better Homes and Gardens comes for a photo shoot, they will have to take photos from a distance. I have learned to cut it very high as we have not had a lot of rain on Long Island for most of the summer.

Darlene wins by default. Truman has the attention span of a fruit fly.

He just has to spread the love around to the whole family. He didn't want to ignore Lenny.

Nice looking pups

You don't post enough of that gal!!! The crew looks great. Have things settled down with Harley's tummy?

Have things settled down with Harley's tummy?

Yes and no. The past three days he has finally eaten "without me dancing in front of him". Now we have to see if it continues. No puking for 5 days, so that is a positive. His weight is holding at 69 lbs. He should be about 7 pounds heavier.

Most people actually have the "spring pole". I am sure you have seen them.

[iluvk9]

I just quoted myself....so I changed it to this post instead. It says nothing.

I googled spring poles, and didnt realize they say they are used for fighting pits. I just want to make sure that it is clear Lucky is not nor will he ever be a fighting pitbull. I just want everyone to know this just in case that is a thought from anyone. Trust me I am extremely against fighting pit rings, etc.

I am with my fiance that it will be a fun thing for him to get some energy out and great exercise...maybe he will get rid of the little sag in his chest . I had never heard of spring poles and really wasn't sure of this whole rope thing, but I trust my fiance because he hates and looks down on the fighting as well. Makes us both sick.

MANY responsible owners set them up for pure fun and exercise! And it doesn't matter the breed. Check out Erin's dachshund in her video!

Thanks. I will check out the video. I watched some youtube videos. I even found a cute whistling puppy. Lol. That makes me feel better. I look over him just like another child. . It looks like they enjoy it though n he has so much energy I think his crazy butt will. I need to post the video of him seeing his reflection in the mirror n thinking it's another dog. Thank you though for helping make it a little clearer.
