BELLA AND GEORGE WERE HERE LAST NIGHT. BOUNCY KID- THRILLED WITH THE PUPPIES...HAPPY KID. GOT TO KEEP OUR EYES ON THE GOAL...
AND IT AIN'T EASY.... WITH DEMANDS ON ME/US THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH RAISING AND DONATING WONDERFUL DOGS...
I WOULD LOVE TO VENT... BUT I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START...
I AM SURE I COULD WRITE A VERY UNPLEASENT BOOK ON THE TOPIC...
THE FIRST CHAPTER WOULD HAVE TO BE "YOU CAN'T...UNLESS YOU...."
AND WITH ALL THE THINGS NOW REQUIRED.. THERE WOULD BE NO SECOND CHAPTER.
*****
BELIEVE ME ... I -SPEAKING FOR SDP.. AM MOST APPRECIATIVE OF ALL OF YOU WHO HANG ON WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH... LIKE YESTERDAY---- COURTNEY CALLED TO SAY THE CONVERSATION ON THE COMMENT COLUMN WAS GETTING SO BRUTAL THAT SHE HAD TO SHUT IT DOWN FOR A FEW HOURS... SEVERAL PEOPLE MANY THOUSANDS OF MILES APART STARTED TELLING EACH OTHER HOW THEY SHOULD COUNT THE ANGELS ON THE HEAD OF A PIN.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE TWIST OF FACEBOOK.... MY IMPRESSION IS IT PROMOTES A HUGE RUMOR MILL DEVOID OF ANY SUBSTANCE. I KNOW IF SOMEONE GETS ONTO THE TOPIC OF HOW I SHOULD BE BREEDING DOGS- AND WHY WHATEVER I AM DOING IS WRONG... I WANT TO TRY AND ANSWER THEIR CONCERNS WITL LOGICAL REASONING... BUT VERY OFTEN THE PERSON SENDING THAT MESSAGE OUT TO THE WORLD ATTACHES NO EMAIL ADDRESS.. SO IF I ANSWER IT ONLINE I AM JUST FUELING THE FIRE...
I TOOK AN AWFUL HIT WITH SCARLOTT'S LAST LITTER WITH 2 DEAF... ON LINE I WAS DESCRIBED AS I THE WORST OF THE WORST POSSIBLE -... SO... ON LINE I SAID "IF WE GET ONE MORE GEORGE OUT OF THE LITTER, IT WILL BE WORTH IT" AND THE PERSON CRASHED DOWN ON ME FOR OVERPOPULATION OF THE DOGS JUST TO TRY AND GET ANOTHER GEORGE. I HOPE THEY ARE STILL WATCHING BECAUSE SAME BREEDING.. 9 LOVELY PUPS... NONE DEAF--- BUT IN THE MEANTIME I KNOW THERE IS A GROUP THAT FORMED AROUND THE POPULAR "ALL DOG BREEDERS ARE IRRESOPNSIBLE" AND THERE IS A GROUP WHO PUTS US IN THAT CATAGORY.
ALLIES ARE PEOPLE WITH COMMON ENEMIES... ON FACEBOOK OR IN DOG FIGHTS
NOW RE: DOG FIGHTS----THERE ARE A WHOLE BUNCH OF PEOPLE .... ONLINE.... WHO SAY YOU SHOULD NEVER KICK A DOG
AND I CERTAINLY AGREE THAT 99.4% OF THE TIME IT IS WRONG..... BUT WHEN THERE ARE THE 2 DOGS-- MALES.. EACH ABOUT 160 POUNDS DECIDING THEY DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER.. GRABBING FOR EACH OTHER'S THROATS-- SOMEITMES VERY QUICKLY A WELL PLACED FOOT WILL STOP IT BEFORE IT GETS TOO BAD.
I CERTAINLY KNOW STANDING AROUND SAYING "PLEASE DON'T CHEW ON EACH OTHER" DOES NOT WORK...
AND BEFORE ANYONE SENDS ME A LIST OF HOW TO BREAK UP A DOG FIGHT--- COME SHOW ME HOW YOU DO IT...
NO TWO ARE THE SAME -- AND QUICK ACTION WITH AVAILABLE EQUIPMENT WILL SOMETIMES PREVENT A HUGE MESS. IF ALL YOU HAVE IS A FOOT-- THEN USE IT.
SO KEEP OUR EYES ON THE GOAL....... WE HAVE A BIG JOB TO DO...
TIME WE GOT OPALS PUPS OUTSIDE--A LEAST TO THE POOP DECK.. WHICH I AM NOT SURE THE CAMERA CORD WILL REACH.. BUT THEY HAVE TO GET OUT. WHEN MEGAN GETS THEM GOING ROUND THE HOUSE... WE CAN PUT THE CAMERA OUT A WINDOW... THESE PUPS ARE CHUNKS !!!
LOOKING GOOD.
YESTERDAY TWAN RECORDED GUSSIE LIFTING A PUP BACK ONTO THE BARKERBED WITH HER MOUTH.. IT IS A SUPER BIT OF FILM. GUSSIE SAW THE PUP THERE AND WATCHED IT FOR A FEW MINUTES.. THEN VERY GENTLY TOOK IT BY THE HEAD AND PULLED IT ONTO THE BED.
2 PEOPLE OVERNIGHT IS WORKING WELL.. STAY IN TOUCH WITH PAM... SHE IS DOING WONDERS AT KEEPING US GOING STRAIGHT. ( AND SHE CAN COOK)
