I SEE OUR CHICKEN BRICK FOLDER TOOK A BIG LEAP FORWARD YESTERDAY WITH ALOT OF NEW NAMES.. THANKS TO EVERYONE---
THAT IS VERY REASSURING-- SEEING AS WE HAVE A HUGE VET BILL AWAITING US FOR ALL THE SPAYS AND NEUTERS WE JUST HAD DONE. WE WERE A LITTLE BEHIND in having them done....--
AND SINCE YOU ALL NEED ALL THE DETAILS-----I DO NOT HAVE A CLUE WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN AFTER 30 YEARS OF BREEDING THESE DOGS, DO WE HAVE A ROVING PROBLEM OF AN UNDESCENDED TESTICLE -- IN 3 OF THE LAST 2 LITTERS.. I DON'T REMEMBER ANY IN THE PAST 30 YEARS.....
PLUS OF ALL THE WIERD THINGS.... IN ONE OF THEM WHEN THEY HAD THE DOG ON THE TABLE THERE APPEARED TO BE A POSSIBLE THIRD TESTICLE--- HOWEVER NOT BEING POSITIVE AS TO WHAT IT EXACTLY WAS, THEY LEFT IT THERE.
NOW FOR A DISCUSSION OF THE UNDSCENDED TESTICLE-- IN HORSES OR DOGS IT CAN BE AN AWFUL PROBLEM IF NOT REMOVED... PARTICUARLY IN HORSES--- YOU CAN ASSUME YOU ARE HANDLING WHat looks like a NICE QUIET GELDING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU HAVE A STALLION ON YOUR HANDS. GELDINGS CAN BE PET HORSES.. STALLIONS CAN NOT !!
SIMILAIR SITUATION WITH DOGS--- THEY CAN TAKE AN INSTANT DISLIKE TO ANOTHER MALE DOG WITH DISASTEROUS RESULTS..
so we will have to watch that pup... could be he is a pet-
*********
NOW FOR PROGRESS REPORT ON KENNEL EXPANSION.....
SHEILA AND TRACY GOT THE HOT SPRAYER GOING LAST NIGHT AFTER SOME HUMOROUS DETAILS-- IT DOES A TERRIFFIC JOB BLASTING DIRT OUT OF TINY PLACES CAUSED BY HORSES KICKING WALLS... I HAD TO LEAVE--- THE FUMES FROM BURNING KEROSCENE DID NOT AGREE WITH MY HOT EYEBALLS.
I T IS NOT FINISHED--- NOTHING IS EVER FINISHED AROUND HERE--- THAT OUTSIDE OF THE BARN NEEDS TO BE "PREPARED FOR PURPLE PAINTING" BY BLASTING AWAY AT IT.
IT IS KIND OF FUN..
WE ALSO HAVE A COLD WATER SPRAYER WHICH IS FAR LESS FINICIKY.
*************
AND THEN THERE IS THE FENCING... STEVE ( CHARLIE STEVE) CARRIED RAILS AROUND DEPOSITING THEM IN THE VICINITY OF WHERE THEY NEED TO BE INSTALLED--- SOME ARE SO SIMPLE YOU WONDER WHY THE FUSS... AND THEN YOU HIT A SECTION YOU CAN NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY GOT A 11 FOOT RAIL BETWEEN 2 POSTS THAT ARE 10' APART-- AND BEFORE Anyone gives me a simple answer..... no.... it is not simple.
SO IT IS A CHALLANGE--
APPARENTLY 2 COMPANIES ARE COMING TO TACKLE IT AS COMMUNITY PROJECTS
JOHNSON AND JOHNSON AND GE.
*******
we have a new applicant here for a dog--- he used to have german shephards..
. boy is he in for a shock !! GShephards are very work oriented--- they snap to command... where great danes smile alot and enjoy life...
