I came home over the lunch hour to let the dog out. Poor Viper, it's a weird schedule this week and I knew he wouldn't make it if he didn't get to pee mid-day. So he peed and we played tug of war for about 15 minutes.
He's strong. He growls with this game and dude, I know he's a sweetie, but I would not want to face an 85 pound Dobe who's mad at me.
We tried having him play tug of war with the kids a few days ago, and he won't do it. The kids were a little disappointed, but I was actually pleased. He is well-trained in the rule of Do Not Ever Take Anything Away From The Children.

Right after I wrote this, I discovered the dumb dog chewing on a bottle of Hair Balm. Not only do I not know how to get it out of the carpet, but that stuff cost me $12!

Also, my children were at school today for almost 10 hours. Mother of Year material, right here...
What a pretty dog. Coco, our boxer mix, is about 12 and she still chews up everything. She drags it right out back in the yard and creates a mess.

I love how serious he looks (part of the reason I love German Shepherds too).
