What did you do to your TJ today?

@AndyG, sorry I missed your wheeling outing. What happened? Did @JohnCooper mess you up?


Don’t believe him Boog. They are so messed up.

It was a terrible.

First I had to dread seeing them all week, then drove all night to meet them, then follow them through parts unknown, (think Banjo music and you are now in the movie) then my jeep “mysteriously” malfunctioned....

Its like Menchausen syndrome with jeeps- they’ll tear it up to help fix it, real weird. Then stand there and argue about how to do it.

Your mind basically goes “oh dear God” all day.

Think Laurel and Hardy, Deliverance and Cannonball Run with Jeeps, all rolled into one movie.
 
Great dogs, herding breeds are sharp.

I am super impressed- I used to not like them because they were sneaky- bite ya

But I’m telling you I have been blown away at their athleticism and intuition.

Buddy is unbelievable with Cattle- it’s like mind control.

He does the funniest thing when I walk up to him in the yard at night if he wants to play he spreads his front legs and crouches down...Like come on bring it bring it.

Every day I get home from work and he put a stick in the floorboard of the truck or a rubber duck or whatever.

That's herding behavior for ya. I have seen warnings for people who have small children as the dogs tend to nip the kids, herding them by default. Still great animals. You're in good hands having two of them. (y)

We have 5 dogs and 3 at my inlaws- all a hoot

Roscoe will skulk around if I put the labrador retriever- Then the second the labrador turns his head Roscoe will nip him - It is so funny because it’s like he gets possessed he can’t even stop it-

Our Basset hound is pretty cute - name is Wink after my dads nickname. Grown now.

Cattle dogs are absolutely the best.
They're not "pets" they're co conspirators and will encourage you to do stupid stuff
 
Get ready for those two to show you how to light farts.
When I was 12-13 a buddy demonstrated a couple fire farts, funniest thing I had ever seen. The next day he grinned and said he had hurt his ass doing that and he could barely walk. :ROFLMAO:

P.S. I wouldn't mind trying to make your next one if my currently bad back recovers by then, I'll be sure to bring a big bottle of Fireball. :love:

Yours in the avatar is beautiful.

Man I’m sold. I’ve never seen anything like them.


Roscoe will walk across the tailgate of the truck going down the road. The thin lip.

And Buddy will get up on the cab or at least the toolbox.

My son had an old F 100 and man the front door was like 5’ off the ground and it didn’t have a side window and Buddy would sleep in it at night and in the morning and come out and here he would just sail out the window 5 feet up-

I have an LJ Rubicon on 35’s and 4”
Lift and a body lift- Buddy can get in the backseat and never even touch the paint.

I didn’t want him in it at all....but I would go out in the garage and there he would be sitting like, OK let’s go.

I had to put a cover on it to keep them out
