I know a doubermen named vok who was the sweetest dog and also an amazing coward. Awesome dog just didn't fit the breed profile at all. First time I met him he walked up to me and leaned his head on me and gave me puppy dog eyes while his tail stub wagged. Cute dog though looks really sharp too.
Actually, doubermen are very friendly dogs. While they can be protective of their owners, they are generally not as intimidating as Hollywood would have you believe. I don't know this for certain, but I've heard it said that miniature doubermen are actually the original size that were bred. They were mainly used as house alarms because they were so yappy. They were later bred to be larger in hopes that they would be good guard/attack dogs. Either way, they are outstanding family dogs and they are great with kids.
New to the site and thought I should intro myself. Name is John (Tat) new to snuff also and finding it quite enjoyable! Sampling many flavors hoping to find a few favorites. Found one great thing so far is the boost of scent when riding my motorcycle, very nice. One down side is the snuff clings like hell to mustache wax, but I'll become neater with time I hope! Still enjoy my pipe and cigars and happily I seen to have found another treat since work and public spaces are so anti smoke. Look forward to reading on and contributing. Tat
Yeah Ill get round to it at some point but for now if you think of a red neck with tattoos, no hair and a beard you'll get there. I also have the same...stature as your goodself!
Welcome all new ones who i haven't! Snuffster,you and tat should organize a biker snuff guild.. Traveling around with your bikes and spreading the wor..the taste of snuff :D
Snuffster, wish you fun in the ink collecting, I'm almost covered and slowing down due to space, get one when I travel. Have a question to ask the group... I'm finding myself grabbing snuff whenever i wake in the night (which has always been often), any harm in sleeping with a nose full? How often should one clean out the schnoz and does it ever get really clean?
Personally Tat I clean my nose out once a day, usually in the evening. Some people use a saline (salt water) solution to clean their nose but frankly I just blow it first then dig out any excess with my finger, gross but effective!
tat - I don't think theres any problem sleeping with snuff in your nose, and if you take it in the night, well better a pinch of snuff than a cigarette. I do exactly the same by the way.
Satyr - My surname is McCarren. I don't know your buddy but we come from a small gene pool - no doubt he's a cousin 20 times removed and my great great great granfather rustled his pigs!
Thanks for the advise guys, I do like to snuff a bit through the night and was trying gwaith and hoggarth whisky last night and did find the nicotine to be a bit more than the wilsons I've started with. No problem though. I haven't been cleaning the nose out that often and I seem to like the feeling of having the snuff in there so I guess I'll just go with it. Took some Mc crystal's mild lemon to work today for a first try and had to waste some for entertainment. The red box was on my desk and a co-worker asked if he could have a piece of gum. I said sure just open the box and shake it out, he did make a mess and got a few laughs from others. So far I like all I've tried except the Wilsons SP 100 (not bad, just not special). In the next couple of days I'll try the Ozona spearmint and raspberry. Have a good one.
That's funny... I left my Magnet Peach tin at the office of one of my IT customers, and one of his co-workers was lying on a couch, holding it upside down wondering what it is (nobody knows snuff in Costa Rica)... curiosity took the best of him when he opened it and a rain of snuff fell right on his face. The guy then told me... that stuff burns like a motherf***er but it sure smelled nice!
