<div><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"></FONT>Barbara, I am thrilled for you on Norton coming. Congratulations all around!</div>
<div>The meet and greet. Now this is a wonderful subject, I will be watching to see what the droolers say, I have tried all the methods over the years---neutral ground, haul them in thru the front door, the pull them apart method, front yard, backyard, and it seems that it depends on the hounds.</div>
<div>Elder Clara was a hoot--she wagged her tail at Elwood sniffed him and promptly pinned him to the floor. Daisy learned this well, she does the same with Bessie--on a regular basis that is--</div>
<div>Elwood has the walk away method, and Brudder Jake--well--well---Jake is just different. He thinks the rip your face off method is most effective--sigh.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>One thing I learned fast---I had to be alpha-and no let up on this. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>So Droolers--tell us your stories of the meet and greet-the good, the bad, the growl, and the grins--how did you do it??<br>
<br>
