Sexy

Everytime I look at a DS I think about how great looking they are.

"Special" It helps if you picture me doing air quotes with my fingers as I say this...

Too True!!!

today in a very dark dusk, i did one of those weird things only i would do in a snow storm with frigid temp and blasting winds; i drove all 3 pups to an ocean beach that has farmland on the other side of the dunes. opening the door for them, the 3 together made a seemingly automatic dash over the dunes toward the ocean - ignoring the farm-field in front of them - the sound of the waves and the storm winds almost deafening.

it was like they were in formation. they ran or would trot fast in unison a few inches from each other. they would turn, slow, stop, sniff, and plunge ahead as if harnessed together. they often run together on our beach or in the yard, but they are attacking or chasing each other, trying to steal prizes from each other. tonight they moved together like a brindled river through the falling snow - their mission unknown to me. they were utterly silent in the roar about them.

then over the dunes and racing down an empty line in the field until they were just dark specks among the white specks. called back by whistle, the brindle troika raced at top speed almost half a mile to my feet. as if they were tethered front and back to one another, their search mission continued until i could no longer stand the cold wind.

all the while - if close enough one could see - their muscles flexed and glistened in the snow.
they are a very SEXY lot this DS breed.

mischievous.... Eris gets into all sorts of trouble as often as she can.

A lot of work...
Or maybe "lovers" for own people and "haters" for everyone else.

LOL, only enough to grab a mouthful of kibble and hide it under the blanket. I swear that dog can pack food in her mouth like a hamster and has it stashed everywhere. She kiped a snack pack of Keebler crackers, had it stuffed all the way in her mouth and tried to walk by like nothing was wrong. It was the sideways glances that gave her away....

I am seriously laughing out loud right now!!! The visual I have...LOL

That should be added to the "anecdotes" thread!

And John... I love, love, love that snippet of writing there, so descriptive and evocative.

I agree with the "Sexy" description, too, so true. Whenever I watch Mokume running and leaping, the play of muscles under glossy coat, the effortless gazelle-like ability to launch himself into the air and made it look like gliding or flying, or even levitating, as opposed to jumping, his intent gaze when he's focused and the simple raw power he's capable of, all while seeming to make no effort at all. *shakes head in awe* I never tire of watching him or cease to be astounded by the physical grace.

yes [ and thank you ], physical grace is a very good description. i should post photos of 2 running side-by-side and simultaneously doing gazelle leaps. talking precision timing that is down to hundredths of a second. how do they know to both leap at the same time in full racing gallop!?

TENACIOUS!!! I agree with lots of other peoples comments and descriptions as well, Hank is a complex canine!
