Buddog:
I am a English Cocker with buff color hair and I also was born in Fremont, California. I helped Malty with CHT* classes but Malty has traveled a lot more than I have. He enjoys flying but I don't like it very much. I travel by car or truck when possible. My favorite hobbies is to go fishing. It seems to make my human dad happy to go along with me when I fish. I do not care what type of fishing I do as long as I can go fishing. My human dad likes trout fishing the best so I always make a special effort to take him when I go trout fishing. I have been teaching him how to troll with lead core line. The worst thing in training humans on the lead core technique is to straighten out his real when he gets a backwash of his line. Like Malty said don't try this at home, only CHT* professionals should ever attempt this.
Don't tell Malty that I borrowed his Rabbit to play with.
Sneaky Dad took this while I was kicking back in my bed.
Malty had just told me about one of his air flights back east (scary).
Malty was telling you about NASCAR Racing game, well our human dad really got really into it enough so he wanted to go to a race. We took mom and dad to Sears Point Raceway a few years back to see a NASCAR Cup event and the noise is too much for Malty and me. We used different designed ear plugs but nothing would muffle the thunder of the race cars and the ear plugs were very uncomfortable. Dad said that he would get us frequency scanners so that we could listen to different crews and drivers as well as muffling the Cup cars exhaust noise and I have yet to see the scanner after almost 12 years. We allow mom and dad to go to the races on there own but both Malty and I have given them stick rules that they must follow or they will not be allowed to go ever again. Can you believe dad broth me a Goodyear racing tire that came off of one of the race cars. I had asked him what in the h _ _ _ he though I would want a used tire. He then explained that he was going to use it to make Malty and I dart board so we could play cricket and other dart games. So dad did, Malty and I will have to say it is pretty neat for a human especially when they are handicapped and can't use there feet to help hold things like we can.
I will have to get Malty to teach me how to use the scanner, but for now we borrowed mom and dads digital camera for this photo.
I have to admit humans sometimes have some pretty good ideas, yes we gave him treats.
Don't say anything to Malty but here is a photo of Malty before he became a CHT*. He is so confident in his work, it may take months before he finds out about me uploading this old photo of him. I will have to keep a close eye on the web page because Malty will do a payback when he sees it.
Check his due out, ha, ha...
This one is a laugh

Malty and Buddog will do more work on this site after the holidays come to a close. This is hardest time of year for us because of the extra care it takes to ensure that our humans are happy and safe.

Buddog passed in his sleep on the road to Florida. We had stopped at rest stop about 120 miles from Bunnell, Florida and everything was fine, Buddog and Malty being their normal self. We resumed out last two hours of our journey to new home. Buddog got up once to drink water about 45 minutes before arriving. When we got to our destination Buddog had gone to his final destination. He is buried here at our Florida home where he has 2.5 acres of green grass and shade trees to see after.
