Shop Dog
« on: September 14, 2015, 08:03:03 am »
I have to say one of my most important tools (sort of) in my shop is Sailor, the resident Shop Dog (170lb Newfoundland!).  Without a good Shop Dog I would have to talk to myself LOL...

Good looking puppy! Put him to work. Tie a beer cooler around his neck.  :icon_biggrin:
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

I mentioned mine earlier, but here are my shop dogs :)  Mallory thinks she's a lap dog, as you can see, and Max is just a generally chill dude.

Nice looking dog.  The breed has a good nature, sort of like you.  I have 2, but together they only weigh 30lbs.  Toy Manchester Terriers.  The dirty one is Buddy when he was a puppy, now 5 and the other is Sammy, now 7.  Both males and fight like brothers.

We do love our boys!

It looks like someone has gotten photos from my wife's facebook page and used them.  It is wierdly amazing how many photos you can search and find.
