<DIV>So sorry to hear that Tesla, Memphis & McGee have made their journey to
the bridge. Take heart that they are once again young and healthy
hounds. May they live forever in the magic of your
memories.<o:p></o:p></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>OMdoG!!! Pw Penny we are so glad that you had a human
guarding angel close to you and that you are okay. I think the mum may
need something a bit stronger than wine for that scare…may I suggest a bottle of
Jack Daniels! </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>No more runny pooh drool to Bandit…the little doxie nephew of
Sirius and Gus. We hope that your little nephew is feeling better real
soon.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Re: Fruits & Veggies - Just a warning about apples.
Please be careful feeding your dogs apples and ensure that they do not get any
apple seeds. The seed contains arsenic and if the seed skin is
damaged it can poison the dog. Apples are fine just NO apple
seeds!!!<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Re: DD calendar -Ellie, so sorry to hear that you will not be
working the DD calendar this year. I don’t know about years past but last
year’s calendar was awesome. But I totally understand and support your
decision to give it up. I am very happy to hear that a brave little elf
has stepped up to take on this task. YEAH! I know that I for one would
sure miss my DD calendar next year and I’m certain that my mom who the DD
calendar is now a Christmas gift for would too. Thank you Ellie for all of your
past work. To the very special elf Laura Salmon that is taking
over THANK YOU! I would not want to miss my smile and giggle for the day
when I flip my calendar page to the next day. No DD calendar snag drool
from the boys.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Re: bad mom – Poor Llewis, you and Ruger have a lot in
common. He will not bark to be let out or back in either; instead he goes
to the door and sits, and waits, and waits, and waits, and then lays down to
wait until momma finally notices him at the door. However…when it is Kong
time (a kong stuffed with treats) he sure lets you know when it is Kong time by
barking and raising the dead!!!<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Colt is the voice of the dynamic duo. He will go to the door
and whine if he and/or Ruger want to go out. If I don’t hear him he
will come and give me “the I want out look” I’ll then ask “Outside?” and
he’ll run to the door. When Colt and/or Ruger want back in it is Colt
coming up to the big picture window in the living room to look in and give me
the “I want in look” he will bark if he thinks that I am ignoring him, then he
runs to the door when he sees me get up. I try to stay on top of it,
and ask the boyz every so often “outside”? if they run to the door then I
dutifully get up and go let them out. I do the same when they are out and
keep looking at the sliding glass door to see if they are there or I will go out
and ask “inside?” sometimes they look at me as if to say “nay, not yet” and go
about their business of patrolling the compound or sunbathing. Sometimes
they gleefully come trotting back inside. My living room picture window is
pretty low and to keep Colt from scratching at my new windows and tearing up the
screens we put up the bottom hurricane shudder (which is horizontal metal
sheeting that has several over lapping pieces to it to cover the window.)
We then took a piece of pvc pipe and cut it so that it would slide down over the
sharp edge of the metal to cap it so that Colt would not cut his
little pawsies. </P>
