Sarge's mom was KB a solid white Boxer who belonged to Josh T, one of my oldest friends. She loved people, catching frisbees, and had a special technique to lick you in the face even when you preferred that she didn't. She was a fast little lady and probably never got over 65 pounds.

KB died an untimely death due to kidney failure. That dog endeared me to the Boxer breed more than any other..

Dear old dad was Hans, a black and tan Doberman with uncropped ears and an occasional attitude problem. Hans belonged to Josh's roommate, Joey W. Joey, Josh, and Josh's brother Dan lived two doors down from Sarge and me when Sarge was a pup. The guys, KB, Hans, and the litter of seven seen below were packed into a 3 bedroom townhouse for a few months in 1998. Changing out the news paper was a full time job.
