squirrel 0 #1 December 7, 2007 Weirdest thing. Walking around the house, putting things away and getting ready for the storm coming in. I walk through the side gate, and on the ground, there is a dog collar, no dog, just a collar. Hmm, fighting through the fence with my boxers? I check, no makrs on the boxers, no dirt out of pace...so I call animal control, give them the license number so they can call the owner and send him over to retrieve his dogs collar. I go out to cut some fire wood...its my therapy, more on that later if interested. ok then, back to.... ...Doorbell rings. Its the kid for collar, but as the same time I open the door, a car pulls up, window rolls down..."Hey, i am looking for my dog..." His dog is a different dog. So there I am, one kid on a skateboard looking for his dog (the one missing the collar), and this guy looking for his dog, and aussie shepard....what are the odds? Just glad my doggies are chillin like villans on the couch. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine's lookin' at me like I'm some kinda' idiot. I asked him if he wanted to walk and he gave me the "You go ahead....tell me all about it, when you get back" look. It's down to 12F and dropping fast....maybe that has somethin' to do with it."T'was ever thus." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that's why Herc has been spending his days and nights on the couch, cuddled up under a blanket (it's been -18 to -20oC here ... windchills down to -28oC or so). Yep, he's smart for saying "no way am I going out there unless it's pee time"! And he just came back in and I gave him his favourite treat ... a GREENIE! Boy does he LOVE those!!

ZeG 0 #8 December 7, 2007 I am more concerned about "It´s 6 o´clock in the morning.. where is my neighbours big badass pitbull...". I had it once in our garden, snapping after me (I was keeping it at distance with a hammer I luckily hat closeby). But since I told him I will nail his dog to the ground with my speargun the next time I see it running around our grounds without a leash, he seems to keep it in his backyard...

I've been told this is a midwestern thing; or at least not a SW thing where I am now. I struggle to not finish my sentences with prepositions. ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder?

Ya'll feed your dogs moderators? No wonder HH has to keep getting new ones. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
