Rip, was Phoebe the one who needed attention at the beginning of our conversation on the most recent call-in Q&A?

She looks and sounds like a very good girl.

[Mark Rippetoe]

That's her A very good girl.

[Jason Donaldson]

Is she present for seminars and other events at WFAC?

[Mark Rippetoe]

She's with me all the time.

[Jason Donaldson]

Excellent - yet another incentive as I work toward being able to attend a seminar.

[gadders]

She's with me all the time.

One of the advantages of hybrid/WFH for me. My dog is with me 5 days out of 7.

Do you prefer bitches over dogs?

[Mark Rippetoe]

My girldogs have all been very sweet little creatures.

[Jenni]

Anything is better with a dog.

I believe dogs are part of the key to our success as a species. They've helped us hunt, stay secure, maintain livestock, etc. Other animals will tolerate us or may even work with us but no other animal has embraced us as kin the way dogs have. I don't like people who don't like dogs.

[Mark Rippetoe]

People who don't like dogs have a different brain than we do.
