THERE IS AN ELEMENT OF UNUSUALALITY ABOUT SDP----- I HAVE A NEW REQUEST--- donations-- i bet you thought "here she goes....she is like the rest of teh world askingfor money" no... it is about DONATING BLANKETS... AND THE blanket binding... so there ! FOR THOSE OF YOU SENDING US OLD BLANKETS-- AND TEHRE ARE ALOT WHO ARE/DO . WOULD YOU PLEASE REMOVE TEH BINDING-- WE VERY NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT IN KENNEL 10 WHERE A PUP REMOVED PART OF IT AND PROCEEDED TO GET TANGLED IN THE LOOP.-- SOMEONE DID CALL AND GRACE RAN--- IT WAS CERTAINLY SNUG AROUND TEH PUP'S WAIST. WE TRY TO WATCH THOSE THINGS HERE...AND .you GUYS ARE A BIG HELP...
ALL YOU CP'S ARE GETTING PRETTY GOOD AT DISCUSSING RULES OF WHAT IS GOING ON- AND DECIDING WHEN TO CALL--- LIKE ----DON'T CALL ME AND TELL ME SHE IS FOALING UNTILO YOU SEE A FOOT STICKING OUT OF HER REAR. TO CALL ME AT THE LIFT OF THE TAIL IS TOO OFTEN JUST ANALYZING EVERY PHART. YOU ARE LEARNING.
WELL HERE IS ANOTHER-- IF YOU ALL BEGIN TO USE TEH WORDS "TANGLED IN" , "CAUGHT IN" OR "WRAPPED UP" - THEN YOU SHOULD CALL ME.- WE DO HAVE HELP HERE 24 HOURS A DAY AND THOSE WORDS HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR WORSETIFYING ON AN IMMEDIATE BASIS.. THOSE EVENTS
SHOUD BE CALLED.....AS OPPOSED TO A 2AM CALL---- "I AM WORRIED MO IS LIMPING" --- LIMPING DOES NOT Have teh immediosity of worsetifying.---she will limp the same at 8am.
2 THINGS RE...TEH PHONE-- IF YOU CALL-- REMEMBER THERE IS NEARLY A 45 SECOND DELAY FOR ON CAMERA-- AQND IF YOU GET NO ANSWER- IT COULD BE WE ARE ALREADY RESOPNDING- BUT MAYBE NOT.. SO KEEP AT IT TIL YOU SEE SOMEONE.
***
THIN ICE-- WE DO HAVE IT-- EVEN IN TEH VERY COLD.. OUR LITTEL POND DOES HAVE A SPRING UNDER IT WHICH KEEPS PART OF THE ICE THINNNER THAN THE REST.... SO WE HAVE ALWAYS LOCKED TEH 2 GATES TO THE POND AS SOON AS ICE APPEARS...-WELLLLLLLL
I HEARD MEGAN WISH THE DOGS COULD HAVE A GOLFCART INSPIRED RUN BEFORE TEHY TRY AND TAKE TEHM OUT FOR TRIANING...--
PERSONALLY I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT AA HUGE FIGURE 8 --- AROUND THE POND AND THEN INTO AND AROUND "A" FIELD WOULD BE A GOOD RUN..
WITH SOME ( $500 ) OF FUN FUND MONEY, I BOUGHT ENOUGH 6' FENCE TO ADD TO WHAT WE ALREADY HAD ----- WITH 2 VOLUNTEERS ( OF THE LARGE MALE TYPE) WE GOT IT IN IN 1/2 A DAY... IT NEEDS WORK--
MY SPECIAL WAY OF FENCE INSTALLING IS TO TIE IT IN PLACE WITH A SAFETY KNOT OF HAY STRING. THAT WAS MY JOB- ONE 18 INCH PIECE OF STRING WILL HOLE THE FENCE VERTICAL-- TIL WE CAN GO BACK AND ADD 2 MORE STRINGS PRE POST. THAT WILL WORK WELL TIL NEXT SPRING WHEN WE CAN JUST PULL THE SLIP KNOT ON THE 3 AND THE FENCE WILLSIMPLY GET ROLLED TIL WINTER OF 2019.
ACTUALLY-- TEHRE IS SOME STRIONG IN PLACE HERE THAT IS "THE ORIGIONAL" PINK HAY STRING... WORKING WELLL AFTER 30 YEARS.
DUCT TAPE AND HAY STRING-- HAVE THAT ENDURING QUALITY ABOUT THEM.

Hello Linda.
I thought that I would let you know that I picked up my calendar today from our Main Post Office as my Postman failed to deliver it to me yesterday.
I love it and just in time. I was however horrified to see how much postage you paid which means the 5 dollars you charged was not enough. I will make a donation online to pay the difference with some extra for the Fun Fund.
I have been a silent CP since the birth of the Buckeyes. I think you are all marvelous and do such a wonderful job.
I live in the seaside town of Bridlington in East Riding Of Yorkshire in England. Your web cams bridge the miles between us which I watch many times a day.
Could you please tell Carlene, staff and all volunteers what a fantastic job they are doing and wish them a very Happy New Year. I also send hugs to all dogs, donkeys, mules and pony.
Once again Happy New Year.
Janet.
