the "CHICKEN POO" food and fuel bill for January is coming
along-
-earlene and i became painfully aware about the increase in
the oncoming food bill last night when the pups demanded a midnight snack.
earlene dumped in cup after cup-- which lasted 23 seconds and finally we dumped
in a large dog food dish into each pen before the settled.
THEY ARE A BUNCH OF DARLINGS WITH A FEW SOB'S OR MAKE THAT
DOB'S----- MAGGIE FINALLY HAD TO BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP TIL SHE WORE HERSELF
OUT..
YESTERDAY'S SPOON FEEDING WENT REALLY WELL-- BY THE TIME I GOT
THRUI 1/4 CAN PER PAIR OF PUPS, THEY WERE SITTING AND WAITING FOR TH E NEXT
thus proving they are capable of reasoning.
SO MORE SPOONING TODAY-- AND MAYBE THE FIGURE 8 HARNESS TO
GET THEM STARTED ON WEARING A COLLAR/HARNESS-- AND WHEN YOU DO... RULES
CHANGE... YOU HAVE TO BEHAVE..
BEHAVING IS CRITICAL TO BEING ABLE TO GO OUT AND AROUND WITH
THEM--- AS IT IS WITH CHILDREN
THE CHUPPIES ARE READY FOR THAT.. NOT THE MUPPIES
YET-
NOW I MUST STOP ALL
DISCUSSION ABOUT THE NOEL AND OLIVE POSSIBLE PREGNANCIES--
BRINGING UP NAMES NOW IS A BAD THEING-- IT SEEMS TO JINX THE
PREGNANCY
THIS IS WHY I HAVE A RULE HERE THAT THE FIRST PERSON TO SEE A
PUP... OR ANY PART OF A PUP IS THE ONE TO CHOOSE/AND NAME THE PUP.
AS SOON AS ANY ARE BORN -- THEN YOU CAN ARGUE ABOUT THE
NAMES... FIRST WE NEED LIVE,NURSING PUPS.
AND BUNPY IS DOING DUE DILIGENCE.. BUT THERE IS MANY A SLIP
TWIXT CUP AND LIP....
TODAY...
YELLOW HAS TO GO FOR XRAYS. ABOUT NOON.
I CAN'T REALLY SAY HE IS LAME-- OR EVEN HARDLY LIMPING... BUT
I NOTICED WHEN HE IS STANDING AROUND HE HAS ALL HIS WEIGHT ON ONE FRONT
FOOT --- DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MUCH... EXCEPT..... HE IS ONE I WANT TO USE
FOR BREEDING AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING
GENETICALLY WRONG WITH HIM I WANT TO KNOW IT NOW.. ELBOWS ON A DANE CAN ALSO BE
A PROBLEM--- I HAVE NOT HAD ANY WITH IT... BUT THEY TELL ME....
WHEN GEORGE AND HIS EDUCATED FINGERS POKED HE DISCOVERED
YELLOW HAS MUCH LESS MUSCLE DEVELOPEMENT IN THAT SHOULDER... INDICATING HE
HAS BEEN FAVORING IT FOR A LONG TIME... HE RUNS AND JUMPS WITH THE REST OF
THEM... BUT IT IS VERY SUBTLE... ALL 4 FEET ARE ON THE FLOOR--- BUT HIS WEIGHT
IS NOT EQUALLY DISTRIBUTED.
GEORGE GAVE ME A BUNCH OF PUPPY BREATH VIALS TO KEEP THE
SUPPLY GOING.
GOING TO GEORGE'S AT NOON AND DOING THE SPOON AND FIGURE 8
TRAINING IS ABOUT ALL I CCN MANAGE TODAY
I DID ORDER THE CHAIN LINK FOR THE LAUNDRY AND NUTT
HOUSE...THOSE WILL REPLACE TH EONES I GOT FROM THE BOXFORD DUMP 10 YEARS AGO...
THIS IS THANKS TO A BROOKSBY VILLAGE RESIDENT WHO OFFERED TO HELP-- TO WHICH I
ADDED SEVERAL BIG CHECKS FROM THE CAMERA PEOPLE.. TO REPLACE THE RUSTED
RELICS IS $5200-- THAT IS WITH A DISCOUNT AND NO SALES TAX...AND BANK CHECK
INSTEAD OF A CHARGE CARD...
WE NEEDED THAT--- BENTLY FOUND HE COULD GRAB THAT OLD CHAIN
LINK AND PULL THE LINKS SO FAR OUT OF LINE THAT HE COULD THEN SNEAK THRU.---
MUCH OF IT WAS THE LIGHTER CHAIN.. THE NEW WILL BE THE HEAVIER--- AND KNUCKLE
KNUCKLE ----
THAT MEANS NO POINTY WIRES STICKING UP-- BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM
WILL BE BENT
THE REAL PROBLEM AND CHAIN LINK COST IS CHINA IS TAKING ALL
OUR SCRAP IRON-- THERE IS VERY LITTLE MADE HERE ANYMORE
YOU ALL KNOW THAT.
THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT THAT IS ALL THE POLUTION THAT GOES
WITH RECYCLING METALS GOES TO CHINA ALSO--- EVENTUALLY IT DRIFTS HERE BUT AT
LEAST IS DILUTED.
BUT THEN THERE ARE ALL THOSE PRODUCTS THAT COME FROM CHINA IN
SEALLED PLASTIC BAGS.. WHEN YOU OPEN THEM ISN'T THAT THE SAME CHINESE POLUTED
AIR THAT THEY SHIP OVER???
