GMCS, I've had Chessies for some years now. A rare breed here. I have two at the moment. They are real characters and good general purpose dogs. The younger of the two I have at the moment will stand on its hind legs like a performing poodle to get a better look at what's going on. She will stand like that for some time. Old Sammie, the one in the photo, was a brilliant deer tracker. Lagopus.....
