WELCOME TO THIS VERY SPECIAL PLACE

Here is where dog people can come together for some fun and fellowship without the fear of getting caught, getting fat or getting drunk, all of which by themselves are fun, but not here. Here is where we will pay tribute to those special breeds of dogs that we can refer to as ones having WHISKERS. It is a place where we have fun and can take the time to show off our dogs and maybe buy some of the things that will be offered for sale. After all, unless we sell something, we can't pay our bills, either. So please take the time to enjoy life with me and have fun in the outdoors with those special to us; and with our dogs who make our lives complete.

The picture at the top is out at "the farm", early morning after a shower had gone through. The double rainbow was unusual and the colors were spectacular, even though they may not show up well in the photo.

THE DOG IS BACK*

Most of you will not even know I was gone; you are visiting me for the first time. I have a limited number of items that I sell, but they are all original just for us dog people. I would like you to tell me about products that you know about that you think I should handle, either because no one else is selling them or you just think they are that good, that I should handle them, also. This will be a place where I will write stories, as in the past, this is DOUG'S TALES. I have added a new page where you can submit stories that you think others would enjoy reading.

*I NEED YOUR HELP- I can not continue this site with out sales and there have not been enough sales of my products to warrent the expense of maintaining the website. I am able to continue through the month of May and then will probably shut down UNLESS YOU CAN GIVE ME SOME IDEA OF PRODUCTS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE ME HANDLE AND YOU WOULD ENCOURAGE YOUR FRIENDS TO BUY. I AM OPEN TO ALL SUGGESTIONS AND IF IT IS POSSIBLE, I WILL CONSIDER THEM. I HATE TO BE SO BLUNT, BUT THE FACTS ARE WHAT THEY ARE. YOU CAN VISIT WITH ME VIA EMAIL BY GOING TO MY CONTACT PAGE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

I WROTE A BOOK

This is the cover of my new book and it is available for the first time here. It is an easy reading book that will touch you heart as well as make you laugh. It will make a great present to you or from you and is priced so you can order multiple copies for friends and family. Don't be left out from having this be part of your reading collection.

I have to admit right here, that I am new to this book business, so I am trying real hard to get it into peoples hands for their reading pleasure. In so doing, I have been giving it to newspaper editors and book review journalists; the results have been very rewarding. As these publications come out, I will include their comments. In the meantime, It will be a classic-- given time, right now you should have one.

A new shipment has arrived and the comments from the early sales are very flattering. It will win you points from anyone you give it too.

DO YOU HAVE A STORY TO TELL?

Maybe you are like me and want to be a writer and don't know how to get your feet wet when it comes to putting something out to the public. I will offer that to you. The page is titled Original Stories By Our Readers. This will grow as stories come in, so check it out. NOTE that there is still the page called THE PHOTO GALLERY and that is where you can send pictures and I will place them if I think they are acceptable and meet our criteria.

READ PAST STORIES OF DOUG'S TALES

I have been asked to keep my past stories available, just in case you missed one or want to go back and re-read one. You may now do that by going to ARCHIVED DOUG'S TALES on the bottom of the DOUG'S TALES page. You will see I start at Chapter 20. That is because the first 19 are all in my book, and I want you to buy the book to read them.

JOIN NAVHDA

There are many breeds that qualify as a WHISKERED DOG, the majority of them are breeds recognized by NAVHDA. If you are not a member at the present time, you might want to go to my link page and go to their site. It is an excellent organization dedicated to promoting these breeds.

Just a point of order. Do not call my dog ugly! She looks mighty fine to me.

HEY-IT'S COLD OUT HERE

This is a picture of FREDA, my Drahthaar. Those are not buck teeth, really. She has been playing in the snow and this is the results left in her WHISKERS. I know there is supposed to be an "i" in her name, but she was named when I got her, and as far as I can tell, she doesn' know the difference.

SITE INFORMATION

If you are curious about who I am and why I do what I do, at the bottom of each page is a item labeled COMPANY INFO. Just click on it. There will be a section that I will use to talk about dogs, living with dogs, and training of dogs. This will be accessed by the DOUG'S TALES key. This catalog will be different in that you can talk with me and offer suggestions, make comments or tell your stories. Go to the CONTACT US page to do this. It is time we let the world know we own the best breeds in the hunting world. It is time we proclaim "REAL DOGS HAVE WHISKERS."
