Watching for cats, squirrels, people, birds.
He’s a sweetheart, he really is! Nutty as fruitcake, too! Lol
He turned 1 year on the 10th July.

@Oh Little Oji what the heck?
That is blood, yes.Oh, man, Tad!!!! He does NOT like crates! Is that blood??
I mentioned it on here before, but Oji is actually good about chewing things – he's not a destroyer. Thus, we were able to give him free reign of the house back a few years ago. I worked him into it carefully and he showed himself capable. He would go ballistic at the door with aggressive barking and jumping around when I'd leave, but things were left intact, save the front rug that was always folded up.
He has since lost the privilege though (and with it, we lost a protector of our house when we're away). It rained and maybe thundered one time when we were out and we came home to pee and some destruction. Gave him another chance or two after that, but the peeing kept on.
So that crate is the one we bought on the way to pick up, not Oji, but our previous Dobe! It survived that Dobe very well intact, but Oji has been slowly destroying it his whole life. He's not an extreme crate chewer or escape artist, but it adds up, and I've had to add sheet metal and creatively repair the door latch.
Yesterday I found what is pictured above. This may take the crate out of commission, but I will give it another repair attempt.
It looks pretty nasty and dirty what with the shed hair mixed in with the blood; but I'm not claiming that I clean his crate either.
I'd definitely get a new one since this one could be dangerous, even if you try to repair it. One vet bill alone could cost way more than the cost of a new crate.

Jasper was so mad at me for leaving him alone in the morning. I had a baptism in the morning and he was pretty much woken up, fed and returned to the crate for a few hours. I always feel guilty having to lock him up like that.
This was the look I got when I let him out.

^^^^^ Do you feel guilty yet? He is trying really hard to make you feel guilty!
I think Jasper is more skilled than we're giving him credit for. The right eye is sending guilt, while the left eye is sending a warning to not cross him again. High level stuff here for a youngster.

Got drool?
This morning was nice and cool out, so I decided to work Jasper a bit longer today. I cut it short and he still got all frothy. I have never had a dog get all frothy every time we play ball. Does this in the winter too.
Zoom in on the tile under him. All drool.

I'd like to hear from other Euros that have the very handsome jowls (not that Jasper's are that pronounced compared to some) and see if they get much froth or drool.
Oji has very minimal jowl (flews) yet more than my previous two Dobes, he leaves a bunch of saliva drops on the floor if I bring him in just after exercise in the heat and he's panting quite a bit. The amount he leaves is significant. Oji also drips more than my previous ones when waiting for food. I say "drips" because it's clear liquid, not whitish stringy stuff like drool.
I attempted my first posting today after work. While not perfect, the posts have stayed in for a few scratches and a romp around the yard 
I would have had more pics to choose from if my camera battery hadn't died. We'll be posting for awhile anyway!
