This is a fine idea.

I cant help notice how clean your dog appears to be.
Whenever my wife walks around the garage, she finds a big black grease stain on herself.

Our black lab and Sheltie mix were a little reluctant at first but they've become quite the Model T pups. The Sheltie mix has taken to standing on my wife's knees and the back of the front seat to get a better view and more air. :D

This is one of my favorite photos, which may have been posted before, but it's good enough to post again ! Thanks to Wayne Sheldon for finding it for me ! Just shows dogs and Ts go all the way back !

Not to dismiss our other furry companions, kitties don't seem much taken with motoring, but they're often dedicated helpers in the garage !

Here is a cat, a good companion who kept the rodents out of the '23 Runabout. Sadly, the cat is gone but once the car was completely rebuilt I called the car Fireball after him.

In the early twentieth century, according to the American kennel association, boston terriers were the number one breed followed by the airdale terrier. In 1925 the German shepherd took over the number one position most likely because of the popularity of the Rin tin tin movies. A young man by the name of Marion Morrison had an airdale terrier named "Duke". Marion's friends started calling him Duke, and the nickname stuck for the rest of his life.

Marion Morrison actually graduated from Glendale High School, my high school, however he was at least 10 years ahead of me. He became a very popular actor but used the name John Wayne as his stage name.
