unfortunately last September when my divorce was finalized my ex wife and i were wondering what to do with the dog.

I told her that as i would be travelling the nation and she would be back home alone managing the closure of our affairs alone, i thought it only fair that she would take "custody" of our boy.

i loved, and still do love that dog very much, he is very intelligent.

one thing we were annoyed with was the constant jingle of his tags, so i had custom military style dog tags with the rubber "silencers" which had his name, address and contact number on one tag, and his vaccinations and vet info on the other each tag concluded with a single word... "reward".

he could sit, stay, lay down, go to bed, wait for his meal (even if it were steak in front of his nose) and even ring a small bell any time he had to go potty.

Brilliant boy and even though his name was "Gunner" he also responded to "bubi"

one day perhaps i will raise and train another like him, but he was such a wealth of personality i doubt if he shall ever be replaced.

I think about you often bubi, love you much my young man!

Yea, I thought I would never love another dog like Bear's mom, but I love him as much, glad she had a litter before he died.

I also have Bear's son, a pup, so 3 generations

This is one of my wifes show dogs, AKC Champion and UKC Grand Champion. Sadly he busted a disc and had to stop showing, then Bear got him once and he lost an eye.

The show dog is Yorkie.

Bear is half Yorkie, half Pom....

Didn't know about the famous Yorkie war dog, just asked my wife, she said it was "Smokey"

If it's about dogs she knows it......Pro handler of several breeds.

I trust you've owl-proofed your dog by now.
