Just like Teddy, she's a purebred WONDERHOUND!
(You have to wonder what breed she is!)

those are a lot like Summit but they are missing the hard consonant syllable that I feel is important.

Doug,
She's precious. But do you think she'll be ready for an outing by Saturday if she's getting fixed tomorrow? My girl was down a few days after her surgery.
Best,
gm

Pay attention to the breed of dog you get. We have this male mutt who is a mix of Aussie Sheppard, Dalmatian, and other stuff. he is a little aggressive but mostly mellow. He learned, in about two days, to ring a bell whenever he needs to go out and pee.
Then recently, we get this smaller dog who is a real cute female that looks a bit like a Jack Russel Terrier. There is another similar breed called a Harrier that might also be her. It's hard to tell be cause she's bigger and taller than a Jack Russell and of course she's a mutt too. She's such a sweet dog but she needs a lot of attention and needs to run a lot. Without the exercise, she's full of pent-up energy and is jumpy and a pest. She can't quite learn to poo outside but she does know how to throw a tennis ball a few feet into my lap when she wants to play.
So keep in mind what kind of attitude you don't want in your dog and make sure to avoid breeds that might not act the way you want.
Good luck on the dog hunt.
Dave

I talked to the folks at the Humane Society about the outing for the weekend and they felt she'd be fine. I'll certainly keep the surgery in mind and probably carry her most of the way. And I have to keep her out of the water. But it's kinda a must do. I really need the closure of spreading some of Summit's ashes at Winslow and this is about the only chance I get for a while.
But if come friday she really isn't ready I can always abort. We don't have to go into the canyon.
Good deal on the smarts category. When I was playing with her I watched her watch someone walked by. She moved her eyes and not her head. That's a smart dog.

I dunno about that eye moving thing Doug.
Better see if her lips move when she reads.

Doug, best wishes for many years of furry friendship.
(and to Guido and eKat: yes, Tess is a Bernese Mountain Dog, and yes she's a beauty. Also happy and well loved. Must weigh about 200 pounds though)

Thanks, Ron. You've made my day. Doesn't take much to entertain me obviously.

Hard consonants start each syllable.

I think the "b" counts as a hard consonant.
