[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 60918, member: 3733"] [b]Re: I\'m thinking about getting a dog.[/b] 4ked Horn, I have a three year old GWR. She stays in the house only when myself or wife are around. During the day when we work she stays in her kennel. Like previous post have stated, lots of energy, and if bored she will comence on destroying something.
