I got 2 labs, one yellow female and one black male. Great hunting dogs, and the family just loves them. The bad thing is when I have a human passenger they go in the bed.

We only have australian shepherds. The red bi we had once was the best security money can buy, whether at home or on the road. Unfortunately she is gone now and missed greatly.

I get reminded of her everytime I get into one of our cars or my truck, there are some serious scratches on the door glass where she dove at people who got too close to the car or truck she was in. Yes, I could leave my keys in the ignition and wallet laying on the seat in plain view without fear.

Three German Shepherds used to ride with me. Recently lost one to stomach cancer, but the other two still go. They are getting to be seniors now so I lift them in and roll down the window for them.

Ive got a 1 1/2 year old white lab named Boss that always wants to ride. He loves my 04 F250 and usually rest his arm on the arm rest just like me. Wish I could get him to hang his arm out the window in the summer. He cant wait for my 79 150 to be finished so he can ride in that. He gets mad because I wont let him ride in his namesake.....a 69 Boss 302

Plenty of great little stories in here. I cant wait to get rid of the crappy buckets I through in there a couple years ago and put the good old bench seat back in the 78. Anyone else have any dog stories?

Well Murry from post #16 saved my pride and the pickup from a big OOPS! One summers day I stopped to get some gas. I though I left the pickup in gear... Well I was wrong. I was at the pump about to grab the hose, when Murry started barking. Looked to see what was going on and the pickup has started rolling towards a busy street. I was able to get the pickup stopped before it rolled away. He was praised for his good deed.

The guy in my avatar was a Blue Heeler mix. He went everywhere with me, loved to go wheelin. He would ride the spare tire laying in the bed like it were a surfboard. One time I crested a dike and started down, he came flying through the sliding window, hit the dash, landed on the seat and stayed put for a while. Good thing he was thick skulled.

Keys in the ignition? Leave the windows down LOL. One time I stoped at my parents house for a visit, got in the truck to leave just as a thunderstorm blew in. I had the truck started, lights and defroster on, killed the motor. When I tried to restart the power died. I jumped out, opened the hood and started by shaking wires at the battrery. The lights and defroster came back on; the battery cable was loose. I shut the hood as the rain intensified and ran to the drivers door, I was already drenched. There was my buddy waiting for me: Front paws on the windowsill, face at the top of the frame, tongue hanging out, tail wagging, door locked...
Couldn't have happened at a better place. I un-hooked the loose cable and borrowed the old man's truck to go home for the spare key.

Miss ya Bruce!

Years ago, I was bringing my cat Ted, home from the vet. I thought I would let him out of the carrier to let him look out of the window while I drove. Guess he didn't like it 'cause he crawled up under the dash. I got home and left the door open. He finally came out about five hours later. He's 17 years old now and doesn't leave the house.

He hasn't riddin in the Ford yet (lol haven't even picked it up yet, that's tomorrow..) but my 2 year old American Staffordshire Terrier, Scooter, likes riding around in my Dodge, except he thinks he is a lap dog so he likes to put his front half in your lap. I could probably leave the keys in teh ignition even withOUT the dog, since my Ford is more rust than sheet metal, but I doubt anyone would mess with it if he was in there, since he does look like a pit bull (albeit an AMERICAN pit bull) but the only thing he shows agression towards is the vacuum, the mop, and R/C cars.
