Welcome to Gooberstan!
It's nowhere near Pakistan, Uzbekistan, or Afghanistan, but it's the land of Stanley - one goober of an Airedale. No passport required.

Straw Poll
We're taking a straw poll here in GooberStan. Which do you prefer?
Ears Up?
One up and one down?
Or both ears down?
We know it's not going to affect the state of the union, but we wanted to give you an alternative to all the other political buzz you've been hearing. Now, this is a poll we are actually interested in. I wonder how the presidential candidates would weigh in on this one.
We love the ears down the best! You both look so hugable and kissable (mom made us say that)! Do you ever get that flipped-back ear look? Mom calls it mess ear! Thanks for telling us who Delta is! What a cutie! See you in Oz!
wellllllll i, theBUSTER here, think that the goobette is rather cute one up one down..sort of makes you think she may be listening..and for you dude...the down position is more mature and stately,...persephone sez she likes the windblown look of you running to her!!! WHOOOoooo000...are you blushing yet?? and ms. blue is into asymmetry and up and down together floats her boat!! got that stan? those are our votes! theBUSTER <----SPEAKING FOR THE IRISH BLUEZ
Decisions, decisions, decisions....I have been spending hours looking at these photos of Stella with one ear up and one ear down and the other with her just looking too gorgeous for words with both her ears down!! If I really had to vote I would vote for both.......ha ha .
Taffy.
PS Molly says you look good with your ears down Stanley, sll sophisticated and suave.
Ahem...As the present dog of a former politician (DAD, not muzzer) I would like to say that it is not how your ears are positioned on your head, but what you hear through them. TREEETS!
Stanley, dude, did somebody post photos of me on the dance floor? Oh the horror.

P.S. Momma says that ever since I started blogging her brain has turned into a little raisin and she is behind with EVERYTHING! Not sure what one has to do with the other.
We have to vote for one up and one down. That's how ours are most of the time. We also use that directional hearing...where you turn one up ear towards whatever you are listening to.
Personally, I prefer one up and one down.....Of course both down was kinda cool too...I guess it would depend on where you were or where you were going...
They're all so cute! But we pick one up and one down. Reminds us of when we where pups and our ears were still floppy and they straightened one at a time! BOL! Our humans us to think we were defected!! How silly of them! Wags and licks, Maya and Kena
well kids, it's like this: we like the natural ears down look when you are relaxing. but when you are playing and acting all gooberish and stuff, flying ears are the way to go! so what we are trying to say is that we like them all. would we make good politicians or what?!! hee hee
Those pix are all so gosh darn cute, I don't know how were gonna sleep tonight...
BUT...
we think, by the narrowest of margins....
WE LIKE BOTH EARS UP!!!
Sorry to shout....
You both are so 'dorable...did Stella just get a bath?? She looks fluffy!! Course after fallin' in that swimmin' pool of dip, she smelled like a canine nacho...
I like them all too. The up speaks of action, yeah!!! The one up one down says "I'm listening.", and the both down is just cute (especially Stella, especially when she tilts her head like that!). Yep, all! Love Finni xx
Hi Stanley Thanks for visiting-- as a member of the huge blogging Airedale community. I like the ears down. Specially in the next to last photo. Very handsome and goober-y. But I like Obama's ears up.

Hey. I'm Stanley the Airedale Terrier. I was 1 year old when I started this blog. I came to live with my hooman girl when I was 10 months old and she adopted me through Airedale Rescue. She said she promised her cat, Merv, a puppy and that I belong to him. (You and I both know that's just a cover for the fact that I am a surrogate child for HER). She thinks I'm a bit of a goober (she's right) and nicknamed me Gooberstan. Since I sometimes seem to live in a world of my own, I thought I'd make this blog about MY world from MY perspective. My little sister, Stella (who is a Lakeland Terrier rescue) occassionally shows up.

Delta
Hey Stanley and Stella can you see my ears?
hmm we can't decide we like them all. Mom says she would pick ears down though
Hey Stanley! Being a big fan of symmetry and of my own always down ears, I have to vote for down. That's right. Two paws up for two ears down.
xo
SB
Hey, buddies!
The doggie named Delta who left a comment is from my former home! Now that we're both older and wiser, she wants to be friends.
I am overwhelmed.

ONE UP ONE DOWN! We love it... it's the first time me and Dixie have agreed on something!
-Sophie
ps- we do like them all though, you are both TOO CUTE!
Yes, yes, I am VERY interested to hear what the presidential candidates have to say about this.
Myself? I love the one-up one-down look.
Why can't I have talent like that?
We have to vote for one up and one down. That's how ours are most of the time. We also use that directional hearing...where you turn one up ear towards whatever you are listening to.

I choose them all. I can vote for Dawson and Foley also. I don't think Gooberstan has very strict election laws.
