 MAR 24 22

BENTLEY IS NOT THE MOST MOBILE IN THE WORLD.... HOWEVER... IT IS A LITTLE SELECTIVE

 HE DID A BIT OF VOCALIZING-- NOT REALLY BARKING  BUT "TALKING". AND I THOUGHT HE WANTED TO GO OUT...
WITH DIFFICULTY I GOT HIM ON HIS FEET AND  HE TURNED AROUND AND LAY DDOWN AGAIN..
 I NOTICED BUT KEPT COMPUTERING.. 2 MIN LATER HE GOT UP AND CHANGED BEDS WITHOUT DIFFICULTY..
I ALSO NOTICED HE POPS UP AT 4:00 FOR SUPPERTIME... AND CAN MANAGE OUTDOORS AT THAT POINT. 
HE HAS THE BIGGEST BLADDER KNOWN TO DOGDOM.....  .. SO HE CAME BACK IN ... WITH LESS TROUBLE THAN USUAL
GOT IN BED AND BEGAN THE GRUMBLING  - I THOUGHT MAYBE WATER WOULD DETER HIM AND OFFERED.  HIM A SMALL DISH.. 
HE DRANK AND DRANK,,  ACTUALLY 2 SMALL BOTTLES WORTH .

SO... HE HAS HIS VERY SEVERE PROBLEMS-- HIS WEIGHT BEING  THE WORST OF IT.. BUT HE CAN STILL WALK
GETTING UP OFF THE SOFT MATTRESS CAN BE AN ISSUE.. HE SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED TO WALK A BIT A FEW TTIMES A DAY.
SO SHOULD I.
-----
I GOT MYSELF INTO A FURNITURE STORE YESTERDAY.. AND JUST INSIDE THE DOOR WAS A RECLINER CHAIR... SO I SAT DOWN IMMEDIATELY... 
HMMMMMM.  I NEARLY BOUGHT THE THING...
 BUT 2 PROBLEMS. WHERE TO PUT IT AND  IF I BOUGHT IT, I MIGHT NEVER WALK AROUND AGAIN...
SO I LEFT WITHOUT IT.... BUT IN MY MIND..........
THE SALESMAN SAID THE COMPANY HAD BEEN IN  BUSINESS FOR 100 YEARS..."GOLDEN" 
WHILE I SAW IN THE BROCHURE STARTED 1985- NOT QUITE 100 YEARS AGO SO THAT "TRUTH IN ADVERTISING" DID TURN ME OFF A BIT,,,,
--

I DID TALK TO GWEN... WHO IS NOT THE MOST EQUINE  ENTHUSIAST IN THE WORLD-- 
SHE ADMITTED THE 2 BLACK MINI HORSES WERE "VERY CUTE".  AND THE SIZE OF OUR DONKEY HITCH...
WELL OUR DONKEY HITCH  LEADERS WERE 32 INCHES..
32 RING A BELL?? AS IN BENTLEY IS 32 INCHES WITH LEG HALF THE HIEIGHT???
I MAY NEVER COME UP WITH ANOTHER 8 HITCH OF DOGS- DONKEYS OR HORSES. 
  BUT A 6 DOG 2 HORSE IS ALREADY IN THE MAKING.  THAT DARN 32 WILL GET ME IN TROUBLE....

 I WONDER WHO HAS THTAT BEAUTIFUL "FRIEDMAN HARNESS".... I AM SURE IT IS ALL MOLDY..
 BUT LEATHER HARNESS SURVIVES... -- A GOOD SOAKING IN MURPHYS AND I. AM SURE IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL AGAIN...
I ALSO WONDER IF FRIEDMAN HARNESS GOOGLES-- THEY WERE THE ULTIMALTE...
SAM FRIEDMAN HIMSELF MADE 4 OF MY HITCH AND HIS SON MADE THE OTHER 4
I COULD TELL BY THE FEEL- WHICH WAS WHICH... A VERY TALENTED HARNESS MAKER...
BETTER THAN ANY COACH LEATHER I EVER"FELT"  
N/A


OH BOY THEY MUST BE EXPECTING A CROWD.....
