with two razor blade slits in it...
one is 1/4 inch wide for knotted rope
the other is one inch wide (opposite side)
for stuffing it with
doggy beef jerky pieces - 1 inch wide
let dog smell tennis ball full of jerky on rope
then feed doggy pieces of jerky
til it wants ball , (play keep away)

Get one from a shelter,any shelter.
I grew up with mutts from Angel Memorial/MSPCA.
Every last one of them.
Do you want a hunting dog?
The trendiest; most popular dog to have?
(English Bulldogs right now.)
$1600 to start. From a breeder.
Or just a family pet?
Mutts usually have much better personalities than purebreds.

Here is my take on dogs.
I LOVE Boxers, and have spent big $ on the ones I have had. pure bread, champion blood lines ect...
But for the most part, pure bread dogs live shorter lives, why I have no Idea, but they do end up getting things like cancer, heart problems ect...
more than mutts!
Getting a mutt from a pound can be a crap shoot !
Lots of times, you get a great dog that is great with kids/people, lives a long healthy life,ect...
but lots of dogs who end up in pounds have been neglected, abused and beaten by previous owners and could end up being problems with things like biting people !
Hope you find a good one Don !

If its a Lab Your Looking for I can Help. First decide what you want in a Dog and what you want out of a Dog. Good Luck. Getting another Lab in 5 weeks myself.

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....
