Hello! I kind of just jumped right in with posting! Didn't notice this forum, oops.

My name is Heather, I am 22 and an aspiring trainer who volunteers at a doberman rescue during her free time. My mentor trainer is a Victoria Stilwell Positively trainer!

My dog is a 4-year-old rottweiler, Antonio (Tony for short). He has some reactive issues, which we are working on.

Hi there, despite the fact that I have a 6lb long coated chi Rotties are one of the breeds of dogs that I really love

Welcome to the forum

[OnceInAWeil]

Thank you. Your chi is black and tan! Big dog at heart, haha. I love long-coated chihuahuas.

[ClareMarsh]

Haha, he had a muscle check at a show recently by a lady who loves Rotties and she was a bit taken with Ted as he Rottie markings on his face

Do you have some photos you can share of Tony (for some reason I'm hearing that in a Godfather style accent )

[OnceInAWeil]

I love that your blog about him is called tinkwerwolf. So perfect!

And I thought you'd never ask!

The two of us together:





A couple Christmases ago



With fosters from the doberman rescue (yes, the first one is definitely not a doberman haha)





And as a puppy.

handsome fella....

the fourth picture down....can I have my dog back? looks just like my dog.

That's Jessie! She got adopted by a nice young man. She was quick as a whip and ALL about the people. I really miss her. We had no idea what she was. My best guess was JRT mix? She had a stubby tail like a JRT, and you might not be able to tell in the pic but she was about the size of one.

And thanks gwd I miss the days when he could be bathed in the sink.

Tony is a handsome chap, I love photo 3 where he's listening to someone

I miss the days when he could be bathed in the sink.

Ha, I don't bath Ted but if he gets really muddy I pop him in the sink and swill his tummy off

I love that your blog about him is called tinkwerwolf. So perfect!

I've always called Ted tinker, you know how "one" has lots of names for a dog. Well one day I said tinkerbell and my OH told me off So I rephrased it to tinkerwolf. When I started the blog it was the obvious name to use

[OnceInAWeil]

Haha, yes, you can tell he's concentrating.

Saw some of your videos of the cute little tinkerstinker...he is just fabulous.
