These are photos of Fortis swimming. You guys have seen most of these before I just put them into a slide show and added some music, I hope! Be kind please.

Yes, Jer – that is Dean Martin. I have an eclectic taste in music from Devo to Dean Martin! Brett's probably wishing I didn't and would have stuck to his instrutmental yawner! 
- (Just teasing Brett!
FYI….The song and video might contain language that is not suitable for all audiences. Yawner……right.
CometDog, Fortis and I really appreciated the video you did for us. Your the best.

Hey Fortis' dad,
For those of us that are on Facebook... guess we need to become your FB friends or something, in order to view your show... So what's your FB name, so we can ask to be friends?
Angel Jake and Wolfie's Mom
Jake, 10yr old golden retriever (fractured his front right leg on 9/1, bone biopsy revealed osteosarcoma on 9/10, amputation on 9/17) and his family Marguerite, Jacques and Wolfie, 5yr old german shepherd and the newest addition to the family, Nala, a 7mth old Bengal mix kittie. Jake lost his battle on 11/9/2009, almost 8 weeks after his surgery. We will never forget our sweet golden angel… http://jakesjou.....ipawds.com ….. CANCER SUCKS!
It's great! That is, if you like looking at a white screen with a Facebook logo!
Because Cometdog is smarter than the average bear – I bring you Fortisdog with no music! Maybe he can sing a few bars for us!
Brett, go and dispute the music issue on youtube and that should take care of it. You'll probably have to upload it again. Kami (Mackenzie's mom) ran into this problem and just disputed it. (I pick songs no one cares about and they don't remove the audio on me!)
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

Sorry, I guess its not going to work. It show up on my screen. I tried YouTube as well but they deleted the sound. Well I had fun making it. Here is a couple of photos from today before heading out to the lake. Sorry about the video. Fortis usually rides up front with me but today he wanted to stay in the back! 
IF being the key word. Some of us refuse to be assimilated.

Love the pictures you just posted... Fortis is so handsome! Bbut maybe you set your FB privacy to 'friends only'... that's why the rest of us can't view it even if we log in... I don't know. I also had problems posting my videos to YouTube with some cool music, cause they kept deleting it. I finally posted it to my Facebook account... but then all my friends and family who aren't on FB, couldn't view it... 
That really bugs me about YouTube... don't the artists realize that by us adding their music to our videos, we are helping to promote them... for free?!! Guess we all need to thank Prince for that.... since he was the first one that sued everyone and caused YouTube and Google to strip songs from our videos....
Sorry for going on about this... I love your Fortis... and would love to squeeze and kiss him!! He's adorable!!!

If you login to face book you should be able to see the video correct?
I could not see the video when logged-in to Facebook ... it said due to privacy settings, or something like that.
Amputation on 11/10/09, due to Histiocytic Sarcoma in left elbow. Angel Harley earned his wings on 06/24/10.
I hope I just changed the facebook settings. I'm not a facebook guy if you know what I mean! I hope it works. I worked hard on that bloody video.

ALRIGHT!!!! I can finally see it!!! So, what did you do exactly?? I couldn't get my Facebook video to work on the Tripawd forum before... Give us your step-by-step instructions... so others can do it too!!!

I appreciate the patience. I went to profile and then to my videos. I selected edit and next to privacy there is a drop down arrow which I clicked on. There I selected everyone. I had to do this from within my videos to get it to work. When I tried from the main profile page it didn't work. I hope this helps.

That's exactly what he would want you to do. He loves everyone and I me everyone. I have never had a dog that showed such a strong desire to meet everybody. He can't stand it when people are scared of him. I think that's why he's drawn to children so much. There never scared for the most part. The family I got him from had seven children under the age of 12. They had two sets of twin girls. In any case he would absolutely want you to squeeze and kiss on him! That's all he ever really wants is to be loved on. It's really unfortunate that because of his appearance he intimidates most people and I'm sure he doesn't understand why. I actually will go up to people when were out and about and ask them if they will come over and you know just pet him. It makes him so happy. I think he gets bored with me sometimes not to mention I have to remain the alpha guy which gets old at times. 
Well thanks for the kind words. I hope you enjoyed the video and music!
Fortis'Dad,
Brett
