Hey Yall [:D] <br /> <br />I only worked 8 hours tonight and am home now. We will be working this Saturday and Sunday AGAIN so no day off this week either. [:(!] This is good for the paycheck but not so good for sleep and the body. <br /> <br />Duchess is barking at something outside. She was the runt of the litter but she sure didn't miss out on lung power. Man she can bark loud. She hurts my ears at times. [V] [:(!] She is onary too. My first Doberman was an excellent dog. Her name was Little Red Princess Sasha. Sasha was very loving and all the neighbors loved her. The neighbors spoiled her. She always thought I should take to to visit the neighbors all the time. You could not ask for a better dog than she was. She was soooooo intelligent and very obedient. I still cry over losing her. SHE WAS THE BEST. Duchess Von Levy is unfortunately no Sasha, but I still love her. They become family and all have different personalities just like people. Duchess is my problem child. [;)] She will be 2 in June. Sasha will have been gone 2 years this July. <br /> <br />Duchess is very athletic and can jump like you wouldn't believe. She stands up and walks on her hind legs. She loves to play but plays very rough. She can be sweet when she wants to but that is mostly when she is asleep. A while back I dropped a section of HO track and she ran off with it and chewed it up. [:(!] She is a big chewer, couches, coffee tables, books, magazines, pencils, ink pens, mail, pillows, sheets, blankets, etc., etc., etc. She even chewed the electric cord to my dust buster. So now I make darn sure she can't chew any other cords. <br /> <br />Maybe for my next Doberman I will name it after a railroad. But for a doby you need a really tough sounding masculine name. Yall got any suggestions. Duchess and Sasha were both "red" Dobermans. I might get a black one next time, or maybe the blue. I have never seen a blue one but they do have them. By the way, Dobermans are very good protectors but are not the mad vicious animals you see on tv. Any dog can be trained to be mean, but Dobermans are not naturally mean. They are very knowledgeable of "their" territory and are very protective of the owner and the owner's family and property. But they are not mad flesh eating overgrown dogs you see on tv. Sasha loved people and I knew by the way she acted who was at the door. I had company one time and two ladies were setting on the couch. Sasha "sat" between them and soaked up all the attention she could. <br /> <br />Oh I guess I better shut up and let somebody else talk now. [:)] <br />
