I've always wanted to get a Whippet, name it 'Goode', and see who gets it.

This is Duke with my Roscoe (which is for sale in the classified section). Duke is a rescue from the local Humaine Society; he's a Black Mouth Cur. This semi-recognized breed is a southern hunting dog. They are used to tree small game like so hunters can shoot them down. They are also used to hunt rabbits, raccoons, wild hogs and on cattle farms to corral the cattle. When my nice New York Jewish wife told me this, I said, "So my New York Jew has a redneck dog?" She said she was going to take him bargan hunting.

We've always had Laborador Retreivers which are great dogs, but Duke is even more playful and loving than our Labs were.

Here's the tabby twins, Hunny and Bunny, and my upright. The front of the upright has soft claw marks all the way up the left side of the upper bout where Bunny tried to climb the bass on its stand. Sigh... They are cats of very little brain.

Max (white and orange), George (grey tabby) and my combo. Cats sure love that fuzzy stuff the amp is covered in. Check out anyone's amp at a gig ... you can tell if they have cats!

Isn't anyone afraid of their cats using their bass as a scratching post?

"Great dogs"? Understatement. LOL. They're totally wonderful, amazingly awesome dogs. Nothing like a beautiful yellow or black lab.

And this is a great photo.
