<DIV>Alright I suppose I need to share this one. If nothing else I know it
shall bring huge gasps of Ewwwww... or laughter, maybe a bit of both.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Caring for 100 hounds daily certainly has its ups and downs, some days more
downs than ups and always an upside down, usually myself at some point tripping
over a multitude of ever demanding belly-uppers who cleverly lay a slippery path
of drool - (the Daphneyland Slip and Slide), yet into the medley of daily life
at Daphneyland one can certainly always find entertainment - more often than not
at ones own expense.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cody. Tri boy, a "red collar" boy. What does a red collar
mean? Red collars we use here at Daphneyland to signify to those
uninitiated in the daily routine that a certain dog is a caution approach -
perhaps the dog was jerked around incorrectly by a previous owner, perhaps the
dog has severe back trauma and thus tugging at a collar would cause pain, loss
of eyesight and still in a startle response mode there are many
reasons for use of a red collar, and in Cody's case its due to stubbornness and
possession hoarding. While we work with Cody on these issues, remember -
there are multiple hounds underfoot and thus every now and then you do something
so stupid you just have to laugh at yourself. Yea, Cody had me in
one of those moments.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cody decided since I was spending so much time scooping poop into the poop
bucket one day last week, that he might decide to guard it. We had a bit
of an argument over that, and I won, or so I of course believed at the
time. Cody sat back, thinking it thru - plotting. You could see it
in his eyes - watching every move, timing it out carefully - scoop - walk, lift,
dump, scoop, walk, lift - dump. And at the lift - he jumped - and
gulped. EWWW!!!! NO POOP EATING!!! NO CODY!!! I took the
slip lead and swung it down, time to wrangle Cody for a time out... and he
ducked, the beast, so I came down lower for a second wrangle attempt -
when....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>PATOOIE!!!</DIV>
<DIV>Ripe Poop on the thigh.</DIV>
<DIV>Perfectly aimed, completely smashed and utterly repulsive.</DIV>
<DIV>Good shot Cody - time out for sure for you..... perhaps you can time out
with RALPHIE!!!!</DIV>
<DIV>Its a good thing it was not a public day as I had to bath in the hounds tub
once again - and yes.... hound shampoo was certainly used - thanks Aunti Leslie
and Montana Hounds!! Your package had just arrived and it was the first
bottle I grabbed!! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Don't you just hate it when the hounds outsmart ya?</DIV>
