Brooklyn 99 is a very well written show, Captain Holt is hilarious in a dead pan way. He owns a Corgi named Cheddar.

Chelsea Perretti had balls to turn down Saturday Night Live to develop the show.

Barstool Sports maven Kayce Smith is too hot for radio (SiriusXM channel 85). If you were a dog wouldn't you want to go home with her?

Hitler's dog?

Yes! When Blondie was playing with a black-haired stray, Hitler exclaimed, " Race Mixing!"

When Hitler was planning his suicide, his aides tested the cyanide tablets on Blondie, so, unfortunately, Blondie died and the Russians found the dog's corpse.

In the old country we kept them as guard dogs, trained to only accept food from one person to defeat the burglars with meat. It took little effort to train them and they were downright vicious and extremely territorial. I never had one as a pet preferring quick mutts for rabbit and partridge chasing.

They are not vicious unless they are trained to be. They are great dogs, very loyal and trainable.

In Denmark, German Shepherds are called police dogs in everyday language, because most of them were working dogs. They are that smart and reliable.
They were called police dogs in WNY as well. Nobody has mentioned Rin Tin Tin, I'd watch that before I'd watch Lassie...

I love sheepdogs very much. I have my only and favorite shepherd "lightning" I have dreamed of a shepherd since childhood and once I bought a puppy, but he had an allergy and it was a big problem because I did not know how to feed the dog. Then I went to the vet and he advised me to feed special food and combine it with natural food, he said that there is the Best Dog Food For Pitbulls and Sheepdogs. I decided to do so and it helped especially porridge, I cooked porridge for my little lightning. Now lightning is a very energetic and healthy dog:)

I love the show Hudson and Rex, brings back fond memories. Once you've owned one they spoil you for other dogs.

Guido came into my family to guard the tool crib where my father worked. I took to training him. German Shepherds will keep you fit, to train them properly they have to be run at least four times a week. A leisurely walk to take care of business wont. It didn't take long for a leash to become unnecessary. After awhile, he was running me. When my father retired, he became strictly my pooch.

The stars of Hudson and Rex, John Reardon and the four legged God called Diesel vom Burgimwald.

Also a great breed and requiring tons of time and training is the smaller Belgian Sheppard.

The Malinois though not suitable for my home is my favourite, If I had more property I would definitely own one.

Had a couple around in the old country, one in particular was a reason why I do not get too close to animals anymore.

Spent many wonderful years with her, she used to shower with me, and be always close by and would eat from any of the family members.

I travelled to further my education, and shortly after she passed away.

It was a few years after her passing, my mother finally admitted to me that after I left for studies, she refused to eat from anyone.

The movie K9 was good too.
One of my favorite TV shows is The Littlest Hobo already mentioned above.
