by all rumors mark and barbara have a bunch of food--- sounds good
and Mary's friend "AUNTIE" is said to have 3 deserts and 10 pounds of carrots
what more could we need????
***************
for openers--- i think we should move the table eastward away from mary's nose-- at least once every Sunday she catches us not paying attention to her and she grabs the tablecloth as we all scream at her.
she waits for the diversion.. i can just hear her"here come those cute puppies--- and everyone will look at them so i can grab all the plasticware and get them to chase me to the barn."
****
i saw a tv show on pickpockets--- and all i could see was MARY's 4 steps.
1 wait for everything to look quiet and normal
2 create a diversion
3 grab the goods
4 run like hell.
happens every week
so much for comparative IQ's

kieth called... hudson had stopped jumping in his truck- in pain somehow---
now if i say that to 99% of dog owners---
they would say "dane hips are bad...--- dysplasia nothing you can do..."
luckily kieth did not go that road--
i don't know why he is better---
but a couple days on doxycycline
and a break in roughhousing with barney
and he is better... so it was either lyme or barney
or to be more correct-- could be neither but you certainly should not assume the statistically more probable of dysplastic hips.
i don't want to tempt fate--- but .....

danes have sooooo many bad reputations-
sometimes it is comical
i listened to some guy tell me they got a cute little dane pup--- "it was so sweet-- it would jump up and put his feet on my shoulders and lick my face--- but eventually we couldn't handle him--- danes get too strong"
GOOD MORNING !!!
i wonder what his kids are like????
******************
often when people see me in costco-- they offer me their grandchildren to get trained as well as the dog i have with me..
i turn that down....
