[Dailydrool] drool, & pet insurance

[Swartz]

Happy Gotcha Day's to Annabelle, Gus & Henry.  I know that your slave's
will make sure that you get a little something special today.

The boyz are sending Elder Clara, the Brudders and all of the rest of
the East Coast Hounds some dry out & nice weather drool, so maybe the
ol'girl will actually want to go outside to plop, plop, fizz,
fizz...LOVE IT!  Still giggling over that one and the image of 'the
glare" of Elder Clara.

Leg healing drool to Jack. Ruger said to tell you to "Heal up big boy,
you have squirrels to chase"

The boyz are sending you some special heart healing, strength & courage 
drool.  We are saying a little prayer that
Violeta is not blind but if so that she will have a smooth transition to 
life without sight.

We are so sorry to hear that Sir Charles made his journey to the bridge.
Take heart that he is young, healthy and has been reunited with his
sister. May Charles live forever in the magic of your memories.

Pet insurance: this is just my two cents on this.  I have talked this
over with my vet and took his advice on this. I don't carry pet
insurance on my hounds. But they do have their own credit card. Why
waste money on pet insurance? When they have deductibles, take your
money every month and you may or may not ever need it. Or when you do
need it they may not cover the illness that your pet has.  So he
suggested to do one of two things...Either get your dog their own credit
card and it is strictly used for them and them only.  (put it in the
freezer in a block of ice to protect it) or get your pets a savings
account and put the cost of the pet insurance each month into the
savings account instead of paying it to the insurance company. Hope this
helps.

Elizabeth, I loved your post...it is a small basset world.  All of us
crazy people just seem to flock together. LOL

Okay it's not a basset but some of our bassets look like pygmy hippos,
check out this pink hippo found in Kenya.

Marlene & Maggie, sounds like you two are going to have a rough couple
of months. The boyz are sending some no itchy drool for Maggie and some
sanity drool for the momma.  Momma Marlene, Colt here, if you need it I
can break into mommas wine vault & send you some of her sanity medicine.
