Jack is a goofball in the yard, but as soon as you turn him out, you dont have to say a word to him, hes gone. Hes gettin up there in age and his checkins are getting sooner and sooner (15 to 20 minutes) but turn him out with somethin and his competitveness kicks in hell go all night if whatever he is turned out with will. The other thing i like about him is he always knows where i am. I can drop him drive off and sit and wait and he always shows up.
BUt your right about smart. He has stock sense. He knows what he can handle and his daughter suprsingly has gotten to be the same way. his son on the other hand is also like him, gonna have to learn the hard way, which most of the males ive been around have had to do..
I sold a few off the last litter i had outta him, but most were given to friends or friends of friends that wanted one (which is the way its always been around here). Then what ever is left can be sold, i dont cull puppies if i can get them a home.
