This is Ghost the evening Jade grabbed her and tossed her in the house last month.

Oh wow his coat does look much better! And it's so long! Very shiny. Nice work, Nana!

My tiger striped dog. :p Jade insists on calling him a tortie rather than a brindle, not that he's really that either.

All I did was feed him regularly and get him healthy, he isn't even on a premium brand yet. He's gotten so muscular, it's a good thing his manners are improving as fast as his physical condition, I wouldn't be able to control him if he weren't inclined to do what I want him to.

Did the vets give you any guesses on his breed? He's so unique. I wouldn't even know where to start.

We know his mama was a registered border collie. As for dad, there have been guesses of chow, aussie, lab and even pit. He has a big chest like a pit, but most (if not all) pit mixes I've seen have had that distinctive forehead, regardless of what the rest of the dog looks like, so I'm not leaning to that.
He's a jumper, that probably came from Mama, not the least aggressive, and has endless energy. A big deep bark, but no growl in it, doesn't yelp when the cats smack his nose, just jumps back. I really can't determine from looks or personality what the rest of him is, probably a little bit each of a lot of things!

What a transformation for Ghost, it's almost like their whole appearance calms down as they themselves start to relax. Heinz's coat is beautiful! I've never seen anything quite like it before.

Heinz is gorgeous! I guess aussie over the other breeds. I see no Pit, Lab or Chow in him at all. It's nice to see him calm with the kitties near him.

Ghost also looks fabulous. Plush coat and shining eyes.

I think they make him nervouse, he's in a hurry to get away to the safety of his bathroom. After the first night he quit trying to turn the litterboxes in a snack bar, but Gary fell asleep on the couch while I was in the tub last night and Heinz was unsupervised. The only thing he did wrong was mark two litterboxes. I guess he smells cat pee in them and thinks that's what they're for? If his aim were better I guess it would be OK, but he also got the rug and wall. Every obstacle we overcome just leads to another.:rolleyes:
