mail call at 5pm is a hoot. and we have been watching the number of
people watching us... normally 300 ish it more than doubles for mailcall.
there are wildly colored envelopes-- some crayon colored-- with a dollar or
two for the fun jug-- then the 1/2 inch of cardboards with funny things on the
back... PLUS A NOTEBOOK MADE OF ELEPHANT POO...and the packages--- usps, ups,
fedex are all represented..
last night shelia's husband- was trying to hide off camera when shelia and
i started on the envelopes - we didn';t get far and his phone rang.. his
sister--- a camera person from conn ---called to ask what he was doing
here..
that along with "blue" greg going up on puppy hill to call his mother in
england.
ah the reaches of modern technology...
***************
i don't know if you ALL REALZE WE HAVE A MEETING AT 9AM EVERY DAY --AKA
COFEE BREAK...-- AND WE HAVE SOME SERIOUS CALCULATIONS TO DO ABOUT POSSIBLEY
BREEDING SCARLOTT TO YELLOW... BOTH ARE HERE-- SHE JUST STARTED I HEAT.
IT WOULD BE MERLE TO MERLE WHICH COULD BE GENETICALLY A PROBLEM ( A WHITE
DEAF) BUT WHITE DEAFS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE WITH HARL TO HARL -
THAT IS A PERFECT MATCH AS FAR AS STRUCTURE IS CONCERNED... YELLOW IS A
TANK ! MORE SO THAN HIS BROTHER BENTLEY...
IT SEEMS LIKE WE HAVE ALOT OF PUPS AT THE MOMENT-- BUT DON'T FORGET 1/2 OF
PI'S GO TO THE"WALK" SERVICE DOG PROJECT.
****************
I GAVE UP ON THE BOOK AND SENT IT TO JANINE... TO DO WHATEVER TO IT... I
PUT IN A BUNCH OF DAILY DOGGIES WHICH SHE MAY HAVE TROUBLE WITH... THERE IS NO
LOGICAL BEGINNING OR END TO THE THING... EVERY TIMNE I THOUGHT I HAD IT DONE, I
REMEMBERS DOMETHING ELSE.
******************
TODAY I NEED TO TRY AGAIN WITH DENIM-- HE GOT A BIT OLD WITHOUT BEING LEASH
TRAINED-- SO NOW HE IS GOING THRU THE SCREAMING BITING STAGE OF LEARNING ABOUT
RESTRAINT...I HAVE THE FIGURE 8 ON HIM SO HIS NECK SHOULD SURVIVE ALL HIS
FLAILING ABOUT. HE HAS DEFINITE IDEAS ABOUT WHAT HE SHOUJLD DO AND WHERE HE
WANTS TO DART OFF TO...
CONTROL IS NOT YET IN HIS VOCABULARY.
SOMETIMES THE WORSE THEY ARE THE BETTER THEY TURN OUT..CASE IN POINT
BOBBY.. WAS DREADFUL WHEN FIRST LEASHED. AND PERFECT LATER.. SO LET US
PRAY..
*****************
I PUT WEE WEE PADS ON THE SDP WISH LIST... I CAN REALLY GET SPOILED BY
THEM---
*******************
AND FEEDING THE PUPS NOW IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY-- BOTH MOMS ARE STILL
NURSING,,, BUT WITHOUT ENTHUSIASM .
PI'S ARE FEW DAYS YOUNGER THAN MERLOTS-- AND IT SHOWS
THAT TAKES ALOT OF TIME TIL THEY FIGURE OUT HOW TO REALLY TAKE IN FOOD... A
ND THEY HAVE TO LEARN TO DRINK WATER ON THIER OWN.. SO IT IS COMPLICATED AT THE
MOMENT.
******************
NO EXCITING COPY AND PASTE
SO ON WE GO.
