WE HAD A GREAT VISIT FROM IHEART FROM HAWAII-- PLUS 2 VERMONTER CP'S SO IT WAS A BUSY DAY. HAVING CP'S HERE IS FAIRLY PAINLESS AS THEY ALL KNOW EVERYONE AND WHERE THINGS ARE AND WHO THE DOGS ARE... IT WAS A FUN VISIT. I HEART GOT TO FEED THE PUPS--- AND EXPERIENCE THE HTRIL OF BEING KNOCKED OVER BY HAPPY PUPS..... SHE BROUGHT HAWAII SHIRTS FOR ALL OF US--- BUD AND PAUL IMMEDITLEY PUT THEIRS ON--- EARLENE AND PAUL TOOK HER BACK TO THE AIRPORT AFTER MAILCALL. AND THE 2 VERMONTERS DISAPPEARED INOT TH E GUEST HOUSE WITH SLEEPING BAGS....
AND LIFE GOES ON AROUND THE FARM...
BUD- WITH PAUL'S HELP--- ORGANIZED THE ELECTRICAL PIPES IN THE HOLE PRODUCED BY MASTERSON'S MACHINES - PLAN BEING TO PUT A PROPER AMT OF CURRENT IN TH E T TENT SO WE CAN HAVE FULLY FUNCTIONING EQUIPMENT THERE ( COOKING THINGS SO EARLENE DOWSNT HAVE TO RUN TO THE GUEST HOUSE)
PAUL HELPED THE VERMONT CP'S AND I FINISH THE NEW FEEDER... NOW IT NEEDS A COAT OF PAINT??? PURP[LE???? SOMETHING???
****************
THERE ARE ENTIRELY TOO MANYU BLACK DOGS AROUND HERE-- THANKS TO THUMBER-- WE ARE INUNDATED--- I HOPE BENTLEY' GENES WILL GIVE US A BIT MORE COLOR SO I CAN ESILY TELL THE DOGS APART. --- SO FAR SO GOOD WITH THESWE 2 LITTERS.
AND WE DO HAVE A PROBLEM--
WHEN YOU COME HERE WITH A DOG, YOU MUST NOT JUST OPEN THE DOOR AND LET THEM OUT-- YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO IS ALREADY LOOSE, AND WE COULD HAVE A TERRIBLE MESS. JADE HAS AN AUTOMATIC OPENING BACK DOOR-- SOMEHOW SHE HAS TO CHANGE HER APPROACH... LET HIM OUT THE SIDE DOOR ON A LEASH?? SAME FOR CASPER-- HE IS TOO LIVELY A PUP TO JUST TAKE OFF WITH WHOEVER... EVENTUALLY BENTLY WILL CHEW HIM UP PROPERLY. IT IS THAT MALE THING.
I END UP NOT HAVING MY DOGS LOOSE-- ND SOMEHOW THAT IS NOT RIGHT--- IT LSO MEANS THEIR TRAINING IS NOT UP TO PAR AS I CAN'T SPEND TIME WITH THEM IF I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHO WILL ARRIVE AND TURN THEIR DOGS LOOSE... BENTLEY IS NOW ALL BOY--AND HAS A DEFINITE OPINION ABOUT STRANGE DOGS PEEING ON ON HIS POSTS.
AND WHILE I AM AT IT.. BRINGING PET DOGS ONTO THE PROPERTY TO MEET OUR BUNCH IS HIGHLY FROWNED UPON... I SEE NO REASON TO TKE THE CHANCE OF GERM SWAPPING--- BOTH DIRECTIONS... I DON'T SEE WHY ANYONE WOULD WANT TO TAKE A CHAANCE OF GETTING WHATEVER OUR PUPS HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH.
THANKFULLY THEY SEEM TO BE OVER IT-- I WAS AFRAID WE WERE INTO WHATEVER IS GOING AROUND OHIO- THE STATE VET HAS A WARNING OUT TO ALL DOG OWNERS IN OHIO ABOUT A VOMITING/DIARRHEA SOMETIMES FATAL APPARENTLY TRANSMITTED FROM PIGS.. IT SURE SOUNDED LIKE WHAT WE HAD..
LIKE MOMMY SAID--- IF IT AIN'T ANTS, IT'S FLEAS.
LUCKILY NOW WE HAVE PERFECT POOPS..

*******
SPEAKING OF POOS AND THE STEPPING INTO THERE OF.....
THE RULE - IF YOU SEE IT ... YOU PICK IT UP----- MUST BE CLOSER ADHERED TO.... TWICE YESTERDY SOMEONE STEPPED IN SOME... THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED IN MONTHS-- THEN TWICE IN ONE DAY... THIS PLACE HAS TO BE KEPT CLEANER THAN THAT... HVE CARDBOARDS AND BAGS WITH YOU-- AND WALK IN SOME OF THE DIFFERNENT AREAS AS YOU WANDER AROUND--- INSPECT AND PICK S YOU GO. ESPECIALLY THE GRASSY AREAS
I SHOULD CUT THE GRASS TODAY AND I AM AFRAID OF WHAT I WILL "COME ACROSS"
BECAUS E WHEN I DO COME ACROSS IT IT GETS FIRED IN ALL DIRECTIONS..
YUCK
