Many years since I played in the front row of the scrum but the introduction of a 'rescue' Dane and it's interactions with our resident Shepherd as they play-fight to sort out hierarchy and status reminds me only too clearly of what used to go on there - with the almost total lack of gentlemanly conduct and fair play - character building for the real world we were told !!

Wow your rescue looks like our Weimaraner! Great pics
I only know of Weimaraners in passing - her colour shifts with the nature of the light ... sometimes very blue slate/dark smoke grey but sometimes lighter grey with tinges of light-milk-chocolate colour. Does that occur with Weimaraners ?? I recall that when Weimaraners began to be more popular in England (in the 1950-60's ? ) they had the nickname of 'grey ghosts' and the lack of precision in the colour that might be implied in that would certainly suit her colouring.

My "children" played hard also..it is hard not to worry about this when you see it. But it is fine!

Yes I know exactly what you mean Dan - with my actual children and now my substitute ones I want(ed) them to play hard and learn from it but also be safe - sometimes a difficult line - same here with these two but they have to be sure of their relationship.
I was reluctant to post these at first - I would not want to be within a million miles of actual dog-fighting and was worried about the images being misunderstood.
John, I didn't mis-understand your message or images, I just get "scared"(Not correct term) when I see teeth being shown but I know that that doesn't relate to a bite nor an attack.....I just got unjustly nervous in my mind knowing full well nothing was occurring beyond play!
Give them a "good boy/girl" for me!!
