    Commando is such a great movie. Its ridiculousness is only surpassed by its satirical nature. Fun fact, The Simpsons McBain is based partially on Schwarzenegger’s character in Commando.

    Breed makes a huge difference in prey drive levels. I know there’s a big contingency of people who like to say that breed doesn’t matter as far as personality goes or whatever, but it does have an impact.

    Because I had a semi-free-roaming house rabbit, for a number of years I only had Newfoundland dogs. Zero prey drive. Loved the rabbit. Once the rabbit head passed on, I decided to branch out and now have a spaniel breed which was bred to flush out of the brush and then retrieve birds. So much prey drive.

      Yeah, my lab isn’t much of an animal watcher, but he does every other lab thing, like snorting the ground and an absolute obsession with grounded water. If it’s from the sky, he yells at it.

    I trained my service dog my self and for some fucking reason when she sees a bird or a squirrel her training goes out the window and no matter how much I try she goes straight into what I call guard mode where her ears perk up and hyper alert and try to go after them. Other then that she does everything perfectly for me though.
