    hmmm, the funny noises would worry me. But add some suspension, home made cage and bumpers and you're ready to rock'n'roll.

    Do any of you guys know if they have alpha-tread in colorado?

    Here in tucson you can get 37" goodyear MTR's for 60$ a piece. As well as many other military tires for the same size and same price. The catch is they've been punctured with thorns out in the desert.....but with more than 70% of the tread left.

    Patch the hole and you have a baller ass set of tires for dirt cheap

    Oh wow, actually catching the squirrels. My girls know the word "squirrel" quite well but haven't caught one yet. They have however caught a couple birds. One baby (probably learning to fly) and one older one possibly the parent.
    I just got my second one last November from the boulder humane society at 8 months old. She is alot more hyper than my other, is in the destructive chewing stage, and had no training by the previous owner.
    Biggest thing right now that i need to get resolved is whenever she sees another dog, she goes crazy. Whining and doing everything she can to run to that dog. Also behind the fence she barks like crazy and runs up and down the fence line. She used to use the fence as leverage and jump high enough to see over the fence. I stopped that by putting up a smaller wire fence and some plants.
    Devin: What can I do to stop this behavior? Is it just starting with the basics of getting the dog to listen to you?

    Nice pics, I was up there like 3 weeks ago, there was still so much snow we could only make it up to about 1/2 mile from the mine. I guess all of this hot weather really melted it off quick. Did you do any of the stream crossings while you were up there?

    Yes it was. You were leaving and I had my wife and nephew's with me or I would have talked to you more.
    Snapped a pic on my way into Lowes and was going to post up. Here it is. Nice truck.

    Ya it's pretty much all melted except for the peaks! I didn't do the crossing since I was alone with my gf. I actually don't know which trail takes you to the crossing... Would like to do it though

    Ya man. They catch em in my back yard. They go crazy on them. And ya my dogs are 1 and 2 years age. They were in the chewing stage at around 5-10 months. My dogs used to not like other dogs and people as well, then I looked up on how to make them dog friendly. I just started taking them to dog parks to interact allot. Starts out rough but you gotta let them get over the stage so they just get used to it and realize other dogs aren't trying to Hurt us or them.

    Bella is 1yr 10m old and Chesca is 1yr 4m old (so the humane society says). We think Chesca is younger however. They get into fights with eachother everyonce in a while but mostly just play rough with eachother. They are great with kids and adults. Its just the dogs that they go crazy about. If they are together around another dog they will fight eachother and the other. If they are alone with the other dog Bella shy's away and Chesca plays rough with them.
    Really its just Chesca that is the crazy one. So you think just continual socializing will break her of the want/desire to rush over to another dog?
    I am highly considering taking her to a dog daycare/training program soon (twice a week) to get some basics covered throughout the day while I'm at work and then take some group classes when that is completed.
    Do your dogs have any health problems? Both of mine started having seizures around the same time about the beginning of the year. Checkups and testing concluded that it is just the common epilepsy that boxers are prone to. Both are on meds for it.

    Ya my girl dog(older one) was always around other dogs since she was 9 weeks. I took her on walks every day till she was about 8 months. She was never mean towards dogs. I think its just because Ive always let her meet other dogs since a pup. My other dog Champ, I really didnt take him on much walks as a pup, never really introduced him to other dogs and people besides family. He was the one that used to get very aggressive towards other dogs and people. It was kinda new to him. The worst thing to do is start yelling at him, yanking him back and panicking when he starts getting aggressive with dogs. One day I read online to just let him be aggressive, a few times to get over the fact of what it feels like to approach another dog without you yelling at him making him think you or he is in danger. So my buddy brought over his black lab. Bigger than my dog at the time. They got rough, barking and acting crazy like hes gonna kill him. but after about 1 min of letting them duke it out, a little sniffin here and there and they were best friends. The whole time my girl dog was locked in the garage because they tend to gang up on others before when champ was aggressive with dogs. Ever since then he is a whole new dog.Every time I took him for a walk he got better and better, and now sometimes dont even pay attention to other dogs. Sometimes rough but he just wants to play. He only gets mad and wants to fight when he meets other dogs who arent dog friendly.

    My girl dog is super friendly. But for being the smaller one she will whoop Champs Butt! She has the balls in there relationship lol. They get aggressive too, but they dont hurt eachother.

    And ya, My girl dog had a stomech problem to where she she couldnt hold food down. She lost a good amount of weight to where you can see almost every bone. high blood pressure. But she is all better now. My parents chiuaua had ceisers too. Medication every day for 16 years. She would have about 10 a year. She finally passed a few months ago.

    Yeah, I would have liked to chat more, but I was also kinda in a hurry. I am just glad you didn't get your truck in a picture next to mine to make it look smaller than it already is. How do you like the ride of that 6" Fabtech? I love the look of it but a lot of people say if you are doing rocky trails that big of a lift is not a great idea. Your truck looks great BTW.
