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...
*****
so on we go
