TV TELLS ME 90+ FOR WEATHER???? THAT DICTATES TODAY WILL BE TRYING TO KEEP
A BUNCH OF BLACK DOGS OUT OF THE SUN-- THEIR BACKS GET ALMOST TOO HOT TO
TOUCH... SO LOTS SPRAY BOTTLES-- MISTERS-- FANS AND A/C'S TODAY TO KEEP ALL
THAT RUNNING THERE WON'T BE TIME FOR MUCH ELSE.
BIGGEST NEWS--
BUCKWHEAT LOST HIS CHANCE TO FILL MARY'S SHOES.. HE IS GONG BACK TO
TENN- THE BUS MAY PICK HIM UP TODAY THERE ARE FEW PROBLEMS I AM NOT WILLING
TO RISK. HE DOES HAVE AN ATTITUDE OF DOMINANCE-- PROBABLY COMES FROM BEING A
FULL MALE FOR TOO LONG. THE FIRST PROBLEM I NOTICED IS YOU CAN NOT MOVE HIM
SIDEWAYS-- DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MUCH-- BUT WHEN I WOULD ASK HIM TO MOVE HIS REAR
SIDEWAYS BY PUSHING ON IT, HE WOULD QUICKLY PUSH RIGHT BACK WITH A "DON'T TELL
ME WHAT TO DO".... JANINE WALKED HIM AROUND AND TRIED TO GET HIM TO TAKE HER
SERIOUSLY ON A LEAD.. SHE HAD THE FEELING HE WAS JUST BIDING HIS TIME LOOKING
FOR HER GUARD TO BE DOWN.. WITH MARY IT WAS A GAME- USUALLY FOOD ORIENTED.. WITH
BUCKWHEAT IT HAS A SERIOUS FEEL TO IT.... SINCE HE IS A BIG ANIMAL- IT IS NO
JOKE.
THEN HE CAME ACROSS THE PARKING LOT TO TROMP A PUP ( WHO SEEMS FINE NOW)-
AND THEN HE BIT SHELIA- WHO WAS JUST SCRATCING HIS NECK...
SO JANINE CALLED HER TRAQILER CONTACT THAT DRIVES BACK AND FORTH WEEKLY-
SHE WAS GOING TO TRY AND GET HIM ON THE TRAILER TODAY.
IN THE MEANTIME-- HE IS IN THE MIDDLE STALL/PASTURE - DO NOT GET WITHING
BITING DISTANCE -
THE PART THT REALLY WORRIES ME... IS
HORSES NIP/PINCH ETC AND LET GO. AN D THEY ARE KNOW FOR BITING/
A DONKEY IS NOT KNOWN FOR BITING... BUT WHEN THEY DO THEY HANG ON AND
DRAG THEIR PREY AROUND. I HAVE BEEN ON THE RECIEVING END OF THAT PERFORMANCE
ONCE AND I NEVER WANT TO BE IN THAT SPO T AGAIN.
THEY ARE USED IN HERDS OF SHEEP TO PROTECT THEM BY KILLING WOLVES-
BUCKWHEAT SHOULD GET HIMSELF A JOB DOING THAT...
SO HE GOES BACK... THANK HEAVENS- AND GROVER SAID HE WOULD KEEP HIS EYES
OPEN FOR SOMETHIG ELSE TO TRY.. MAYBE STAY WITH THE FEMALES-- JENNY'S
THAT IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC EITHER BECAUSE THAT SPOTTED JENNY WE HAD HERE
FOR A WHILE AND GAVE TO MYOPIA HAD THAT SAME DEFINSIVE LOOK TO HER-- WHICH IS
WHY SHE MOVED ALONG..- WE NEED A VERY SPECIAL DONKEY-- IT MAY TAKE US A WHILE-
***************
THE HOT THAT WE ARE DEALING WITH TODAY MAY ALSO BRING ON THE BUGS-- SO FAR
THIS YEAR WE HAVE HAD VERY FEW. I REDALIZE I AM TEMPTING FATE... SOMETHING I
HESITATE TO DO. TO THAT END I DID NOT THROW OUT THE 1/2 GAL COKE BOTTLE.
AND I WIL PUT UP THE PENNIES IN TH EPLASTIC BAG BIT... I HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH THAT CONCEPT-- BUT MAY AS WELL TRY- I KNOW THE PLASTIC BOTTLES WITH THE
TOPS CUT OFF AND I NVERTED WORK WONDERFULLY AS LONG AS THEY ARE BAIED WITH
SOMETHING VERY ATTRACTIVE TO FLYS..AND FYI NOT ALL DOGGIE DOO IS ATTRACTIVE.. I
HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED WHY- IF THERE ARE 4 DISTINCT PILES WAITING TO BE PICKED UP
ON THE DECK, THE FLYS WILL BE ALL OVER ONE PILE AND NONE ON THE OTHER 3.. THE
ONLY OTHER PIECE OF INFO I ASSOCIATE WITH THIS "ATTRACTIVE SH#T" STUDY IS
SOMETHING ABOUT DOGS NOT DIGESTING THE PROTIEN IN THE WHITE OF AN EGG.. MAKING
THEM INCLINED TO EAT THEIR POO.
ALL UNFOUNDED RUMOR.. HOWEVER FLYS DO MAKE A DECISION AS TO WHICH PILE IS
APPROVED.
BAIT THAT BOTTLE CORRECTLY AND I HAVE HAD 4" WEEKLY OF THOUSANDS OF DEAD
FLYS--- THE BLACK SHINEY KIND.
THUS ENDETH THE BUG LESSON FOR THE DAY
***************
MY CHIPPED FRONT TOOTH IS NOW REPAIRED-- NEITHER THE DENTIST OR HER
ASSISTANT KNEW ABOUT EXP[LORE-- BUT BOTH HAD SEEN A DANE SERVICE DOG IN A STORE
IN THE PAST WEEK.
****
AS I WANDER I AM GETTING MORE OF THE "I SAW A DANE SERVICE DOG AND
WONDERED IF IT WAS YOURS" I THINK WE ARE NERLY THE ONLY ONES WITH DOGS OUT
WORKING.
PI'S OWNER IS TRYING TO START "WALK" WITH HIS FRIEND MIKE.
I THINK THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE IN MIND FOR THE 4 PUPS OF PI'S THAT THEY
WILL BE GETTING.
*****************
NOW ABOUT THE FEEDING OF MERLOW'S PUPS-- WITH THE GROUND UP PUPPY FOOD AND
GOATS MILK... TAKING IN TO ACCOUNT THE SMEARING FACTOR.. TODAY I WILL START
WITH 6 OZ WATER, 1 AND A HALF CUPW OF GOATS MILK- AND A HUGE HEAPING TABLESPOON
OF GROUND UP PUPPY FOOD. THE PUPS HAD A GOOD STRT WITH STEPH AND NOW IT IS
POSSIBLE TO CONSIDER HOW MUCH FOOD THEY ACTULLY SWALLOW- AS OPPOSED TO
SMEAR...
******************
I AM NOW ON PUPPY DUTY
HOPEFULLY VOLUNTEERS WILL ARIVE THIS MORNING TO TKE OVER.
******************
P.S WE HAVE DELIVERED CHAOS TO PAUL AND EARLENE-- SHE HAS BEEN TERRIBLY BORED AROUND HERE- SO THEY TOOK HER FOR A FEW DAYS.
