We had a dog named Captain-he was given to me at about 6 monthes old,he was 1/2 german shepherd and 1/2 huskey. He was very hairy-always shedding.He would lay outside sometimes on his back,sound asleep, in 10' weather. First time,I thought he was dead!He loved fetch and would bring you a stick or a ball and keep chasing it and bringing it back. One time I was cutting firewood and he kept bothering me so I took the stick and threw it into the briar bush.He jumped in and grabbed that stick and brought it back to quick as a flash:do it again!Sometimes I wanted to go in the house and he would keep bringing the stick,so I would throw it over 2 fences into the hay field.He had to run 400-500feetwhile I only had to go 40 feet and he would beat me to the back door.It was always the same stick.I timed him once and he ran 35 mph.Tell him jump from the ground over the side of a 4wd truck and up and in he went into the bed without touching the sides.Put his food out and he would look at it and eat it later. He was a decent watch dog too.I miss him a lot.Mark
