[Prudence]

We had the opportunity to finally meet my cousin's dogs. Two very large labs - Zeus (black) and Bailey (brown). Utterly and completely untrained. Do not enter their home unless you want to be slobbered upon within an inch of your life. Even when "calm" there was much slobbering as Bailey felt that we both needed baths. Or at least our clothes did. Much licking of the pants and shoes.

My aunt's dogs, on the other hand, are polar opposites. Rather than intense, overwhelmin friendliness in giant packages, they are vicious killer wanna-bes in toy cihuahua and pomeranian packages. I have never seen a dog that small in a muzzle.
