ONE OF THE CAMERA PEOPLE GOT ON MARIA ABOUT FEEDING THE 10 PUPS LAST
NIGHT..
. I DO LOVE A GOOD ARGUEMENT SO I DID RESPOND...
********************************
WOW DIDN'T YOU ALL HAVE FUN LAST NIGHT..-
LET ME START WITH-- ANYONE THEY CAN DO ALL THIS BETTER... I WANT YOU UP HERE
ON CAMERA TOMOROW AND HAVE AT IT.. AND I WANT THE VIDEO RIGHTS.- APPARENTLY IT
IS ONE PERSON... I AM READY---
BUT LETS TAKE IT FROM THE TOP DOWN.---. EVERYIONE IS AM AZED HOW MEGAN CAN
GET ALL THE DOGS TO WAIT-- AND COME WHEN CALLED-- WELL GOOD MORNING- THIS IS THE
START OF WAIT.. SO I SIT THERE WITH CAN IN ONE HAND AND SPOON IN THE OTHER AND
THEY CRAWL ALL OVER ME- I NEED THEM TO STAY BACK-- BOTH HANDS ARE BUSY SO THAT
LEAVES ONLY MY FEET TO NUDGE THEM AWAY--- IF ANYONE THINKS THAT IS KICKING THEM
.. THEY NEED TO GO BACK TO FIRST GRADE ..PLUS THESE PUPS NEED TO LEARN TO FEET
AND WHERE THEY ARE--- THE SECOND STAGE OF THAT PARTICULAR TRAINING IS TO STAMP
MY FEET SO THEY DON'T RUSH THRU A DOOR AND GET HURT.BY THE CLOSING DOOR.
I NEED MORE COFFEE--
WHAT I REALLY WOULD LIKE IS FOR THAT PERSON TO COME HERE AND TRY WHILE I
FILM WHATEVER THEY DO.
ALSO BRING WHATEVR DOG THEY HAVE TRAINED AND LETS SIT
IT DOWN NEXT TO BAILEY--
OR BETTER YET HAVE HER GET HER DOG ON A TREE LIMB..
*******
I AM BACK- 2ND CUP
- NEXT PROBLEM------- YOU FORGOT TO FEED THE LITTLE
ONE. --- OK... IT LOOKS RANDOM TO YOU ALL ON THE CAMERA -PLUS--
MOST PEOPLE FEED THE DOGS ON SOME SCHEDULE AND THAT IS IT.--
- WE WATCH AND STUDY OUR DOGS-- AND THEY DO TALK-- OLIVE IN THE PROCESS OF
NURSING ALL THOSE PUPS WOULD GO AND STAND AT THE DRUM OF DOG FOOD AND CLEARLY
SAY--- I AM HUNGRY- SHE WAS UP TO 5 REQUESTS A DAY- SO WE JUST FED HER. THE PUPS
WILL DO THE SAME- IN THAT THE HUNGRY PUP WILL NOT SETTLE-- SO WE DON'T JUST
IGNORE IT AND MAKE THEM WAIT TIL TH ENEXT " FEEDING"-- WE FEED THAT ONE SOME
EXTRA SNACK...- PROBABLY NOT ON THE CAMERA--
PLUS-- AS I--- OR MARIA -- SIT THERE WITH SPOON-- THERE ARE 3 BLACK NOSES -
ONE WITH WHITE TOES, WHITE FEET AND WHITE ANKLES-- THE REST DON'T LOOK ENOUGH
ALIKE TO GET THEM CONFUSED-- I PERSONALLY FEED THEM IN ORDER- WHICH LOOKS RANDOM
TO CAMERA PEOPLE .-
AND WHEN TH ELITTLER ONES BEGIN TO WALK AWAY-- THEY ARE PROBABLY FULL--
RASSBERRYS TUMMY IS PROBABLY 1/4 THE SIZE OF KHAKI'S SO IS THERE ANYONE SAYING
THEY SHOULD GET THE SAME AMOUNT?? AND I AM POSITIVE MARIA IS FAR BETTER AT
KEEPING THAT STRAIGHT THEN I AM...----
THEN THE ULTIMATE CHECK.. EARLY IN THE GAME WE WEIGH THEM OFTEN TO BE SURE
THEY AE ALL GAINING... NOT TO TRY AND MAKE THEM WEIGH THE SAME JUST TO BE SURE
THE RATE OF GAIN IS SIMILAR...
IT IS A GOOD THING MARIA HAS A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR....
. MOST OF YOU AE VERY REASONABLE-- BUT THERE IS ALWAYS
ONE...
**************************************
I
FILMED SOME FANTASTIC SHOTS YESTRDAY WITH THE CARDBOARD BOX...... SOMEONE
SENT US 2 CUSHONS IN A BIG BOX-- AND THE NUPPIES HAD A BLAST WITH THE BOX..
LUCKILY THE CAMERA WAS CHARGED AND READY...
WE HAVE A COMPLETE STORY OF OLIVE AS THE
BEACHED WHALE LYING ON HER SID BEFORE BIRTH-- THEN THE BIRTHING SEQUENCE AND
MANY OF THEM GETING BIGGER
************
ALSO A HUGE BOX OF MOVING BLANKETS
ARRIVED-- THEY ARE SUPER FOR THE VANS--WE LOVE IT.--
**************
THESE NUPPIES ARE ABOUT TO START LEASH
TRAINING... THAT SHOLD BE FUN
MEGAN SUGGESTS I WEAR THE GOPRO ON MY
HEAD IN THE RIG WE HAD FOR BENTLY TO WEAR IN SAMS
SHOULD WORK..
IF IT DOES WE SHOULD GET THE OFFICIAL
HEAD GEAR FROM THAT REI SPORTS STORE
MAYBE MEGAN CAN DO THAT
TODAY
****************
WE ARE STRUGGLING TO GET THE VANS
INSPECTED... WE ARE AT LEAST A YEAR BEHIND WITH STICKERS...
PROBLEM IS WE CAN NOT GO 100 MILES IN THE
BIG VAN WITHOUT THE ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON.
I HOPE BOTH TOPSFIELD AND IPSWICH POLICE
REALIZE IF THEY TICKET ME, I WILL NOT GET UP AT 4AM WHEN THEY CALL TO GO
CHASE HORSES UP AND DOWN TH EHIGHWAY AS I HAVE DONE IN THE PAST..( the one on rt
97 turned out to be bonnie's !!)
**************
THAT WILL BE OUR EXCITEMENT FORTHE
DAY
I HOPE TO GET OUT TODAY --- MAYBE LATE
MORNING
NORTH SHORE RUN??? I STILL HAVE STITCHES
IN MY EYEBROW..
.MAYBE...... I WILL TRY THE WALKIN.. THE
DOCTOR IS GOING TO YELL AT ME-
