one of those places(might have been the parent co) sold me some extra badger pins but they had to ship them to a machine shop in Omaha for me(I think they were a dealer).Too far back for me to remember all the details.

ill give those guys a call tommarrow, i tried to call paw yesturday but no one answered. ill also check with my friend/machinest. he was able to replace a badger piston for me about 4 years ago for my sister in laws 360 amc after a bolt went through the motor and bent the skirts in causing a nice rattle.

Man he's a good looking pup. Whats does he weigh ? Here is my girl. We have had her about 5 months. We got her from my brother as he moved out of the country. I told him if he comes back he wont get her back as we love her. She is so good and so sweet. She wants to lick you to death as she loves everyone. She goes 92 lbs as thats what she weighed the last time at the vet's. My wife and son along with me just fell in love with her right away. I love dogs anyway and had two Boxer's when I was a kid and she is just as nice as the Boxer's were to people and I love nice dogs. Ron

Forgot to tell you she just turned 3 years old. Here she is in bed with me as she loves this little stuffed dog that my sons girlfriend got her and she dont rip it apart either. It is like the dog from the movie "Something about Mary". She loves to play and she loves water and she will chew most of her toys but she does not chew on this little stuffed dog. Ron

ron, he was around 90 pounds in the pictures, they are anywhere from 2-4 years old. hes a little fat right now. his biggest problem is he pulls like a fright train when you take him for a walk. one question for you, if theres any bickering going on in the house, or even on tv does she get nervous? our dog is spoiled and has never been spanked. and he gets nervous when people bicker. everyone i know with a lab says there dog does this.


funny story, one time my wife and daughter were attacking me, they said i was to nice to him and i pay more attension to him than i do them, and its my fault he begs for food ect. i was sitting on the floor and he came over and sat down right against me and put his arm around my shoulder. my wife and daughter couldnt do anything but laugh at that point.

Yes if my son and I wrestle around of we act like we are atacking the wife she jumps right in. She also like to pull like a frieght train when walking her but we are working on getting her to not pull so much and make the walk a little easier. She just wants to go and check out everything outside. And when she played around with the nieghbors dog she went in their pool and did not want to get out. She loves to run also. Ron
