THERE'S A NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN.

His name is Beau...but he's known throughout the West as Big Dawg. Outlaws from the Pecos to Montana feared his steely-eyed gaze. None of 'em could look him the eye for very long. They knew that once he picked up their trail, their days were numbered. He was more relentless than Tom Horn. His relaxed demeanor put people in mind of legendary lawmen such as Wyatt Earp, Tom Threepersons and Bill Tilghman. He fooled a lot of bad guys with his easy going manner, but he could pull that .44 faster than you can say "sixgun". Some so-called "gunfighters" were known to just give up without even drawing their guns, once they saw him grin at them. Rumor has it in his later years, he advised Texas Ranger Frank Hamer on how to track Bonnie and Clyde, and taught Melvin Purvis how to shoot.

Nice picture and I know that look. I got a 9 year old 115lb. female named Mia. Shes to sweet to be a sheriff unless you happen to be a bad perp reaching through my wifes car window for her, then you get a torn up arm.

I see he prefers the plowhandle over the Bisley. So do I.

Big Dawg learned early in his career that if you have to buffalo somebody over the head with a gun butt, the plowhandle makes a bigger and more lasting impression.
 
Now that takes K-9 protection to another level ! The MIL might be interested in the idea. stevemb

That's a dang good pic.

Thanks for the compliment on the photo. Here's what's funny. Or sad, depending on how you look at it. I'm a photographer (though sometimes you'd never know it), so I put that photograph up on a couple of photography sites, asking for a critique. Well, people liked the photo mostly, but then they had to start in on their political views and opinions on guns, and all this other happy horseshit. Their comments took all the fun out of the photo and the little story I made up to go along with it for me. It just flat pissed me off. So I just removed the photo from those other sites, so right now, this is the only place anyone can see it. I reckon I'm probably not supposed to cuss on here, but I just don't like foolish people.
 
I think there are a lot rougher ways of saying what needs to be said than yours. I may have coined some of them. I've become a Christian in my "older" age, and do my best to avoid fowl language, but habits aren't easily broken sometimes, and some things are just fowl, and need proper description, such as people that hate guns, which protect our freedom, others that hate hunting, which goes backward against logic, and worst of all, those who hate Christ, and everything he stands for, and did for us ALL. I say, be glad you've at least got THIS place to post a pic of the sheriff, and forget the others :D

P.S. I keep a picture file of the many Ruger revolvers I've owned, and my favorites I see posted, along with other Ruger related & historical pics. Beau is officially in the file now :D
 
Well said Gunsbam69. The breed is a protection type breed, a weapon in its own right. Adding a firearm to the pic is just a progression in logic, and for gun enthusiasts, kinda neat ! Thanks. stevemb

A protection type breed...yes, by all means. Here's Beau (aka The Sheriff) and his best dog friend Annie in full protection mode...cranked up and fully prepared to defend me and our home from any and all intruders! :lol:

In reality, they are sleeping off their special Christmas dinner last year, and on my bed, no less. At least they left me some room on the other side.

I agree. Great picture. I am not tolerant of those wanting to put down Christ, remove the Ten Commandments from public viewing or other senseless acts that erode my Christian beliefs. If you do not want to follow Jesus, that is your choice but do not limit me or others that do. And do not tell me its unconstitutional....this country was founded on God!

Beau is extremely pleased that you've added him to your favorite photos file!
