<DIV>The Red Zone--I read this phrase in one of the posts--and do believe I
could make a sign that says this and post in the front yard. 2 days of
rain, storms, thunder, buckets of water. We all know what this means-20 wet
paws, soaked bellies, wet dog smell---and Brudder Elwood. Those two words should
be enough. He is bored silly. Elder Clara is still smiling and in another land
from the calming drug I gave her last night. She was about to vibrate to death
from the on going storm. Daisy is glued to my legs, also afraid of storms, but
nothing like Elder Clara. Casey could care less-EXCEPT--for Elwoods sudden
interest in Ol Bob. He has irritated Old Bob until if I were Bob, I would just
let him have it. So Casey has now noticed this new attraction, and decided she
needs to take some action and protect Bob. Elwood landed in the cage for that
round of action. Elwood has hauled toys out the dog door just to see me chase
him. I shut the dog door--well of course he peed on the floor and gave me the
"look". My fault. The backyard looks like a war zone-my dish towels are out
there along with wiping towels-he drug them out thru the mud. He is so quick, so
bored, and is trying all the tricks he can think of. My dinner was snarfed off
the counter, and right now going back to work tomorrow is beginning to look
good. Elwood says I am only telling one side of the story-I told him to make the
house payments and he can have a say.</DIV>
<DIV>The Red Zone--yea, I can relate.</DIV>
