Did I meet your dog?

Years ago (mid 90s) I was climbing at The Cemetery when a couple of guys headed up to the Evil Pillar asked if their dog Mo could "hang out" with us. We said yes and Mo sauntered over and hung out. When Mo's owners came down, Mo got up and rejoined them. Most well behaved crag dog I ever met. I vaguely remember Moe being a Dalmation but after all these years I can't be sure.

IVAN.... yes, sounds like Mo'..... it starts with good training. When Mo' was like 14 weeks old, the wife and kids were going out of town... I took him to Josh, in Febuary. It was snowing and quite cold so I had him in my pack. The pack fell over and he started walking around looking very cold, and cute as only a puppy can. Anyway, some college girls where also there, one of them picked him up and let him go under her Down Jacket to snuggle..... doggie heaven.

From that moment on Mo' know how to act at the crags.

But that was a long time ago, now days it is best not to take your four footed buddy to a National Park.

Locker I can only assume your friends are "things" too. I seriously hope you're not married...I'd hate to know how you refer to your wife/SO.

Dictionary.com doesn't say anything about animals being "things." Maybe Locker is using an old dictionary from BITD when they believed animals were unable to have emotions.
dictionary.reference.com/br…

noun

2.
some entity, object, or creature that is not or cannot be specifically designated or precisely described:

I'm not sure if I would trust a dictionary that makes up character for their pronunciation....What the hell character is that "n" with a "j" tail on it?

Locker, the "thing" is you will always be my belay bitch! Does that also make you my crag dog?

I posted the "old dictionary" thing before you gave the link. I was making a joke that maybe you were referencing a dictionary off your shelves, from like the 1800's or something.

Jeepers - testy!

LOCKER..... so is it dogs at all crags?

or Some dogs at some crags???

Or dogs at certain crags?

and Hippie.... you know Mr. Locker, sometimes he gets testy. Give him some mangled old boots to fix.... that sends him to the highest heights.

Hope to see both of you at Todds on the 4/11.... Locker.. Bring that GF - we can pimp her out at the party.

Looks like big time fun.
