heeeey! I think we're going to start wearing a "In Training. Do not pet." something. Any recommendations? I don't currently have a harness to attach any patches to so a modestly-priced whole-shebang would be awesome.

Yep :) Julius K 9 :) All my bigs say do not pet. Kinda funny to cuz all three big dogs say do not pet and the little mans says working dog lol oh the looks I get lol
 
My friends dog lol what can I say I have a way with animals lol she’s really sweet though I’ve known her for about over a year we hike with them a lot lol but I’ve never watched her before, she’s been a pleasant new member lol
lol that definitely sounds like time for a dog knapping.
 
I'm not crazy about his ear crop. I think the vet wasn't that good or as experienced as he should of been to do a dobermans ears. I also see a crease or fold on his left ear when hes looking at you. This is gonna give me trouble. I believe its gonna just flop over right there what do you guys think ?

He's still small so he will grow into them but I'd start a thread to get more input from the experts. I didn't post Kaiser myself so I don't really know.

This ^^^^ reminds me of the time a neighbor and I went to Farm and Fleet for a huge sale they were having on bedding! We got 3 pallets! The third pallet had to be broken down and some of the bedding put in the back of the pickup along with anywhere we could fit it on the trailer! What a freaking scary ride home that was!! Luckily, my neighbor took his truck and he drove. I was so nervous! I thought for sure it would tip over or something! It was so tall! It is about a 25 minute trip to F&F without towing. That day I think it took us an hour or more. I think we crawled! :wtf3:

Holy moly!! I only had 2 pallets in the 12’ trailer and 1 pallet in the truck which pancaked the tires. Had to move a third of the pallet from truck bed to tossed willy nilly in the trailer. Once I got to the house I had to open both the trailer doors and hang a fan to keep it cooled off in there overnight. Had some composting just starting this morning.:eek:
It is usually a 2 1/2 hr drive back but I took a bit over 3 going slower. I was nervous. There is NO WAY I would have driven with the load you had!!! That would have freaked me out.
 
Awwwww, she's adorable! We can flip a coin on who's gonna do the kidnapping. :cool:


Ha, believe me! I was freaked! I would have never done that alone.

Before I sold my business I drove with heavy equipment all the time and had no fear but my work truck was more than capable of carrying heavy equipment with no issues. My private truck hmmm different story. It’s only a 1500 short bed. Not designed for heavy loads.

Well, it was his truck and only a Ford F-150. The weight probably wasn't as heavy as your sod, but the height is what freaked me out. But he wanted to do it. :whoop: I wouldn't have done it with my truck. Nor did I want to drive through town with that! Although mine is the same. Chevy 1500. It was our trailer but I don't think it took a beating. My truck tires sometimes will flatten a bit with a load of hay! We usually only take about 33 bales at a time, but the guy selling it (no matter who it is!) always says, "I can get 50 on that thing!" :wideyed: No thanks!

@MyBuddy ....here's a little info for you...35 bales X's 50 lbs = 1750 lbs, I bet you need a bigger truck.:spit::rofl::rofl::rofl:

"Rectangular bales of hay are either classified as 2-stringed or 3-stringed. 2 stringed bales are typically 36 inches long, 19 inches wide and 16 inches tall. These typically weigh anywhere between 40 – 75 pounds. 2-stringed bales are harder to find but easier to work with as they can be handled by a single person.

A 3-stringed bale on the other hand is 44 inches in length, 22 inches in width and 15 inches in height. This type of rectangular bale typically weighs 100 – 140 pounds. These are much larger and heavier and it will require at least two persons to handle. These bales however, are solid and sturdy when stacked.

You can also buy one ton or half ton bales of hay. One ton bales are 8 feet by 4 feet by 4 feet. These can weigh as much as 2000 pounds. Half ton bales on the other hand are 6 feet by 4 feet by 3 feet and they are weigh around 1000 pounds. With that said, it is very difficult to make all bales of uniform weight."

We do, but hubby would never take his out to get hay! LOL I wouldn't either, actually. It's too nice. We just guesstimate at the weight. It's "only" 32 bales at the most and I know that not all are 50lbs each! I'd never lift that! There was one load last year where I swear the bales we at least 50lbs! My goodness, they were heavy!!! But most we get are not.
