4:45 --WON'T THIS BE EXCITING----- I AM MONITOIRING THE EXPLORE CAMS (SPLIT SCREEN) AS I TYPE TO KEEP TRACK OF NOISES- AND THEIR. CAUSE...THE NEIGHBORHOOD DOES WAKE UP BEFORE 6AM.
PERFECT NIGHT SO FAR---
5: 10 SOUNDED LIKE SOMEONE LEFT FOR THE AIRPORT--- WITHOUT TOO MUCH DOOR BANGING...
5:58 AM I DID WATCH DOG IN #6 COME OUT... STAND AND PEE MOVE HIS BOWELS AND WALK BACK IN TH E BARN.. VERY EXCITING... AND TYPICAL-- LUCKILY HE WAS BACK IN BEFORE THE TINY WOOF OF THE 2 DOGS AT TEH OTHER SIDE OF OUR HOUSE- DONKEYS ALL ASLEEP... PPONY NOT FOALING...BIRDS NOISY

***************
SO THE PLAN IS TO KEEP TRACK OF HOW WE HAVE MADE ADJUSTMENTS.. WE HAVE DONE ALL KINDS OF THINGS-- FROM CLASSICAL MUSIC TO MUFFLE SOUNDS ----TO MY STAYING IN BED TIL 5-- WHICH IS NOT EASY TO LIE THERE WATCHING THE APPROACHING HURICANE WISHING I HAD A CUPPA COFFEE.. BUT AFRAID TO GET UP FOR FEAR I SET OFF THE DOGS LOOKING FOR BREAKFAST. .....TIME WAS, I GOT UP AT 4- ENJOYED SINGING IN THE SHOWER, EXCEPT THE DOGS OFTEN WOULD JOIN ME IN SONG/HOWL....... SOON THE ENTIRE PROPERTY WAS BATHED IN SONG...-- I OFTEN PUT ON THE MIC SO THE REST OF TEH CAMERA CROWD SO COULD HEAR THEM. I DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE--- AMID COMMENTS ABOUT "WHY DON'T YOU??" IT CERTAINLY IS A BIG CHANGE IN MY LIFE... - I STILL DO SHOWER, BUT IT ISN'T AS MUCH FUN.
***
WE DO KEEP A NIGHTLY CHECK LIST OF WHAT DOG IS WHERE FOR THE NIGHT--- AND IT CHANGES ALMOST DAILY--- BECASUE WITH SO MANY BLACK DOGS- I CAN'T TELL WITH THE CAMERAS, BUT I COULD FIGURE OUT WHO PEE'D IF I NEEDED TO-- TEH LIST IS IN THE KITCHEN ON THE MED SHEET... WE ARE ORGANIZED
**
ONE OF OUR BIG PROBLEMS-- SERVICE DOG OR REGULAR DOG, IS THERE ARE SOOOO MANY DOGS WHO'S BEHAVIOR IS TERRIBLE- THAT TO HAVE A FINELY TRAINED CANINE IS FOREIGN TO MOST PEOPLE.
PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE DOGS IN TEH FIRST PLACE JUST ASSIME THEY ARE ALL ALIKE WITH DARN LITTLE VARIATION.... NOT TOTALLY UNLIKE CHILDREN... THERE IS A GENERIC KID.. WHO IS NOT ALWAYS A JOY TO BE AROUND.. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE YOU RUN INTO A FINELY RAISED, PLEASENT KID WITH MANNERS... SAME WITH DOGS. I HAD A PERFECT DOG-- BROWNIE-- I LOANED HIMN TO SOMEONE FOR A DEMO ONCE- AND THEY PUT HIM IN A KENNEL FOR A DAY, HE GOT A "HAPPY TAIL" WHICH BLED LIKE THEY DO... SO THEY HAD THEIR VET CROP HIS TAIL-- WONDERFUL SOLUTION... EXCEPT WHEN BROWNIE CAME OUT OF ANESTHESIA HE WAS SHOVED IN A TYPICAL METAL KENNEL ---- SO IN THE PROCESS OF FLIPPING HIS HEAD AROUND TO WAKE UP, , HE BANGED ON THE METAL CAGE... FROM THAT DAY FORWARD- THE SOUND OF A GARBAGE CAN LID-- OR ANY METAL NOISE WOULD MAKE HIM COME APART... THUS RUINING HIM FOR SERVICE WORK. THAT IS WHY WE HAVE SOMEONE SIT ON THE FLOOR AT TEH VET HOSPITAL WITH A DOG AS THEY COME OUT OF MEDICATION...
RAISING A SERVICE DOG IS -- FOR US A 24 HOUR JOB-- WHICH IS WHY TEH VETERANS ADMIN REFERS TO OUR DOGS AS MEDICAL EQUIPMENT- WHICH IS WHY I AM ASTOUNDED TO HAVE SOMEONE REFER TO "JUST A DOG" AS TEH ELEVATOR COMANY DID WHEN TEHY ELECTRICUTED BENTELY AND ME.."JUST GET ANOTHER DOG" -- WITH NO REGARD FOR TEH HOURS OF TRAINING THAT WENT INTO BENTLEY-- ( OR THE SPERM THAT CAME OUT OF HIM)
