I REMEMBER...... WHEN I HAD TO COVER FOR SOMEONE ABSENT IN MY HUSBANDS MEDICAL OFFICE.... I DEVISED A METHOD OF KEEPING TRACK OF WHO WAS WHAT----- ON THE BACK OF A CHART BELONGING TO SOMEONE WHO WAS PARTICULARLY. ANNOYING. I PUT A SMALL CIRCLE WITH A DOT IN THE MIDDLE. THIS NOTATION APROXIMATED A PORTION OF HUMAN ANATOMY USED TO DESCRIBE A CERTAIN BEHAVIOR.

I DID TAKE THE SUGGESTION OF DEEP BREATHING AND BRANDY DRINKING LAST NIGHT......
I DID TAKE THE SUGGESTION OF DEEP BREATHING AND BRANDY DRINKING LAST NIGHT......
THE PROBLEM WAS NOT JUST MO'S TEETH, BUT PIETS 103 TEMP GOT ANOTHER BUNCH OF CP'S GOING
BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER........ MO'S TEETH WERE FLOATED NOT VERY LONG AGO--- AND TEETH JUST DO NOT GROW FAST ENOUGH TO BECOME A CURRENT PROBLEM-- MO IS OLD.. AND HAS THE TENDENCY TO CHOKE WHICH MAY BE HER FINAL PROBLEM-- I DO. NOT KNOW-- BUT I WOULD BE AMAZED IF SHE MAKES IT THRU ANOTHER WINTER.
PIET HAS A TEMP-- LYNN AND I TALKED ABOUT IT-- DECIDED ON A PLAN FOR. THE DAY --- SHE DEALT WITH IT-- I FORGOT IT BECAUSE IT WAS ON LYNNS LIST FOR THE DAY.
BOTH CASES OFF MY CALENDAR.
I HAVE SPENT 10 YEARS TRAINING CP’S AS THE PROPER PROTOCOL FOR ADDRESSING SOMETHING THEY SEE ON THE CAMERAS.... IS IT AN EMERGENCY? IS THE BARN ON FIRE? PLEASE DO CALL ME—OR TALK IT OVER AND DECIDE WHAT TYPE EMERGENCY IS IT? THEN CALL.
YESTERDAY I BET I SPENT 2 HOURS DEALING WITH TRYING TO EXPLAIN “HOW FAST DO A HORSES TEETH GROW”—AND IF A DOG’S 103 TEMP IS ENOUGH TO REQUIRE A TRIP TO THE VET HOSPITAL AND AN OVERNIGHT STAY THERE.....
EVERYONE MEANT WELL--- BUT AFTER TEH 6TH PHONE CALL----REQUIRING ME TO TRY AND BE POLITE—IT GOT TO B E A STRAIN...
I CAN NOT PUT ANY OF THE THINGS I THOUGHT OF SAYING IN THE DD ABOUT HORSES AND TEETH...
THAT IS WHEN THE BUNCH HIT ABOUT WHY WE DID NOT TAKE PIET TO THE VET--- AND DID WE NOT REEALIZE ALL THE AWFUL THINGS A 103 TEMP COULD BE,.... OFF AND RUNNING ON THAT 103 TEMP. WHEN PEOPLE NEED TO REALIZE. 99% OF VET OFFICES CLOSE AT 9:00 AND THEY GO. BACK IN AT 7AM TO SEE WHO LIVED/ OR DIED --THRU THE NIGHT—THE ONLY VET HOSP THAT IS DIFFERENT IS TEH EMERGENCY 24 HOUR HOSP WHO ARE FULLY STAFFED OVERNIGHT- AND ABOUT $1000 A NIGHT , IF YOU CAN ----“GET A BED/ CAGE” --- I HAVE BEEN IN THAT SPOT MANY TIMES... – AT 103—I WAS NOT THERE YET.
MAYBE I. CAN MAKE THIS “INSTRUCTIONAL”.
WHAT WE/I. NEED/WANT ARE JUST THE FACTS.- TO SEND ME AN EMAIL “IT LOOKS LIKE MO WAS CHOKING A FEW TIMES” ---WOULD BE APPROPRIATE
HOWEVER......TO SEND ME AN EMAIL AND SAY ” MO IS CHOKING YOU NEED TO CALL BRYAN AND HAVE HIM COME OUT AND FLOAT HER TEETH”.
MAKING THE DIAGNOSIS/ AND DECISIONS TELLING US WHAT TO DO -- IS ---- UNLESS YOU HAVE A VET DEGREE, --- BEYOND ANY REALITY. AND AN EVENTUAL THREAT "IF THEY HAD ONLY LISTENED TO ME" BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE THAT ONE IN A MILLION THAT WE END UP TRYING TO PROTECT OUR SELVES AGAINST...
THE DIAGNOSIS CAN BE AMUSING FOR A WHILE. BUT GETS VERY ANNOYING AFTER TOO MANY PHONE CALLS.
WE HAVE THIS PROBLEM A LOT AROUND HERE.
MY CAR HAS A Flat tire
becomes
SHE has a flat tire, which was probably a nail
Which becomes
SHE has a flat tire, which was probably a nail from the driveway
Which becomes
SHE has a flat tire, which was probably a nail form the driveway because teh carpenter was nailing a door there
Which becomes
SHE has a flat tire, which was probably a nail form the driveway because teh carpenter was nailing a door there and he must n ot have been careful with. Nails
Which becomes
THEIR CARS HAVE flat tireS , which was probably a nail form the driveway. because teh carpenter was nailing a door there and he must not have been careful with Nails .----- Which then hits the internet
Did you hear carlene’s carpenter was careless with nails and sdp has cars with flat tires
which becomes
sdp is so careless in hiring that the people they hire cause accidents
which becomes
life at sdp is dangerous
which becomes
the spca has been notified of a danger to animals
which becomes
you must rebuild the driveway
there is no end.
Give me fact only ----and let it go at that. Not every leaf blowing in the breezes is a flying saucer....

I was sitting on the edge of my bed wrapped in a towel wearing slippers waiting for my husband to get out of the shower when I heard an awful noise coming from the dog house outside my window ..... when I looked I saw the fact that a young pup had tried to jump the 6 foot fence and gotten his collar caught in the twisted top of the chain link and was hanging there by the collar. we do live back "in the woods" altho running about in a towel is not normal, it can on occasion be necessary.
I immediately ran to help and as I got hold of the dog and tried to lift... I needed more lift so I put my left toe in the chain link and had the dog more or less sitting on my knee while I steadied the top part with m y hands..... Needless to say the towel had dropped by my feet and I was left wearing one slipper. I tried to lift the extra 2 inches to get the collar unhooked from that chain link and was not getting anywhere. the dog probably weighed 75 to 100 pounds... so as I stood there wondering what to do next.. up the driveway came the FedEx truck... and as he pulled through the gate and deposited the packages I called to him.” Mr FedEx could you give me a hand”.. he took one look and decided that. yes......I certainly did need help and he cheerfully came to my rescue ....we lifted the dog off the fence... I put the dog on the ground and picked up my towel and thanked the nice man for giving me a hand. He smiled and said not to worry he wouldn't tell anybody. ..
Somewhere there is a Fedex driver who smiles.... a lot !
Since i like to be as instructional as possible.... -- the purpose of that true story is........ chain link fence comes twisted wire or "knuckle-knuckle". and for dogs - the knuckle knuckle is by far the better choice.
i have an even bigger reason not to leave the collars on the dogs at play--- for some other day/
