[Dailydrool] storm phobies and dogs & alternate species

[Beverly Szaton]

> Herding dogs ... and hounds, such as beagles and basset hounds, seem to be
more likely to develop a storm phobia....<

Ha hah lucky me. What breeds do I have? Belgian SHEEPDOG-- who is terrified
of storms and Bassets-- one of whom is apparently working on it.
 I swear next time I am raising hamsters.Do hamsters have storm phobias? Do
they cry in their crates if you don't sit in the room while they go to sleep
at night? Do they play incessantly with a squeaky toy at 2 in the morning?
Do they steal wallets, remotes, batteries, bread, butter, sharp knives, or
sit directly in front of the fan?
I have yet to hear of a hamster attacking a mailman, fed-ex or UPS person.
(I have been attacked by bunnies, so they are out.)
Are there hamster shows? Would I need 5 crates to take one hamster to a
hamster show? How about a grooming table as big as my dining room? Does it
take 3 people to trim the nails on hamster? Do I need to?
HAMSTER AGILITY!!! Think of the money I would save on the practice
equipment!! I could use straws as weave poles, a piece of bent cardboard for
the A-frame....
and what shots do hamsters have to have? Not rabies...and I betcha there
isn't a village limit  on hamsters, either.

Plus---you don't have to go out with them in the rain and snow!

Oops it's thundering, gotta run.
