After our 3 days away from home for Christmas, Hhinch was ready to settle back in to his new home and get some play time in.

I haven't figured out yet how to post the photos right onto the board without 'attaching' them, but I'll figure it soon enough! Hope you enjoy seeing our boy!

Staci,

To have the photo's show up directly and not as links (there is a details description in the FAQ) here are the basics:

1) size the photo to be 700x700 pixels (we do this so people on slower internet connections can download without waiting for days)
2) upload the photo to your favorite photo sharing website
3) use the img button above and put the URL for the photo in the middle of that

Nice looking dog Stacy. He does have a bit of a malinois look (no offense!) with the stop and the ear set, but darn, it is very becoming.

Nice pics Stacy!

when I said the same thing about a very familiar looking French Dutchie I was told it was just another "type" of DS I think this dog has that same look! No offense either

Why thank you! I wouldn't even know to be offended by that comment! I am not a breeder, so to me he looks like all the other short haired brindles I've seen. But, he is still one good looking dog!

You are totally right. He looks like a lot of other short haired brindles, and among a lot of them, he stands out in a positive way. Just a very handsome dude, your Hhinch.
Since he is bred by the DoD, I can almost assure you that they just selected two good dogs, not likely of the same breed, just 'what works' They had some nice looking French/Belgian Malinois bitches when I saw their stock (Deux Pottois) so maybe he is a distant decendant of those. With that, I am not at all passing judgment on your boy. Just possibly recognizing a certain look.

Maybe if I asked the DoD for pedigree paperwork...LOL! Right! No offense taken. Hey Judith, I checked out your website. You are not far from us. We are in Lufkin! We are not originally from East Texas, but have been here about 6 years.
