| #9 Spaniels are easier than terriers - pretty food driven. ;-) |

| #8 I'm suffering the rejection of our fox terrier this afternoon because I took her to the vet this morning. Lunch wasn't enough to restore my status. |

| #7 Did you bring treats? If not, there's your reason .... LOL My oldest English Cocker spaniel is fully capable of carrying a mad until she's good and ready to drop it. Example: a couple years ago she saw me putting a crate in the car but she didn't get to come along on the trip. She loves trips but doesn't get to go on them very often now that she's not showing anymore. When I got back that night with another dog and went to pet her she turned her back on me. Moved her head just enough so that my pat missed, too. Took a bunch of special treats and extra lap time for me to be forgiven. |

| #6 Had a Springer Spaniel that after I left to go play Navy, would not let either myself or Spousal Unit out of the car whenever we came back to visit Mom and Dad. Dad had to come out and actually hold his collar until we got out and then he would bee line for me to check me out and ensure i wasn't a bad guy; never bothered Mrs. Ret. Guess its cuz she was ( and still is) a little bit cuter than me... |

| #4 Some rotations are indeed quite long--EOD, PJ, CCT for example. And often airmen opt to voluntarily extend deployment for various reasons. |

| #3 Good stuff for sure. This fellow is wearing USAF rank chevrons. Forgive me, I love both dogs and Airmen, but the "14 months in Iraq" title may be incorrect. I beleive the Air Force uses 4 month rotations currently. Please correct me if I am wrong. |

| #1 Dogs have a really good long term memory. My late father in law had a wonderful Australian shepherd mix who ALWAYS remembered me when my wife and I went down to his place every Xmas, even thoough she hadn't seen me in a full year. |
