i am hoping-- with a little praying.... that the 2 doggie doors tom put up last night did not get eaten.-- rugs function well until they are eaten-- this poly max stuff is fantastic.... extremely slippery on one side-- and nearly so on the other, i don't think it would be as much fun to chew. my latest is.... with walls in a normal building 16" apart....on center... and the studs 1.5 inches wide one wold expect the distance between to be 14.5 inches...-- except i built some of the deagel house and most o the nutt house.. so each as to be measured-- the barn is worse... studs there are ont 24" centers- so anything is possible... and a t'square is just not in my usual tool deprtmetn. tom did test the 2 tht are up to be sure the dogs would push thru... they do. to plug even 90% of those holes would be a big thing in the heat department
*****
the "stuff" is 4 x 10 slid behid the sofa ( on camera at mail call) and i am wonderign if 2 or 3 of thse might be our next chicken board--- that piece flooring is getting tired... but still shatable.
we could have some fun as a huge "white board" and purple duct tape????? hangign on our gate???***/WHOA???
****
i was doing well with my diet but this morning i got up with the old "it's a beautiful morning-- time to think about 3 more meals to have today"
*****
meanwhile--- the buckeyes are making great progress... wiht more outside nutthouse time and in out.. responding to being called... things like that... next is an actual leash... and some car rides.. then maybe we can get one out of here parked with friends for future breeeding if necessary... to gt ready for the next litter.... i forgetwhen... but i bet all the cp's kept track !! the family that comes in here during mail call with the 2 kids is where vance will be going.. ( all things being equal)
****
it is nice to have sizzle back in the house.... she is definitely "out of heat " now-- she nailed bently pretty good with a "get your cold nose out of there " bite... i dunno -- there is a human lesson to be learned there.... she did not say "yes"-- and because of that he now has a few holes in his nose... and bentley.....if you keep questioning her "no" you will be minus more than some skin off your nose.
100 years ago--- somebody wrote a book once "my dog, my teacher" so i went to amazon to see if they had it... they showed me 15 related books 14 about dogs and the 11th one...a book on ... What Your Fifth Grader Needs to Know: Fundamentals of a Good Fifth-Grade Education (Core Knowledge Series)-- what is that telling me???

pray for our doggie doors ---( and bella too)
