 aug 29 2022

  i had  a few comments from cp's on the  car problems  mostly windows...
EXHAUST FUMES COMMONLY SEEP UP INTO THE BACK INTERIOR AREA OF CARS WHERE THE DOGS ARE RIDING.  DOGS DO NOT LIKE THE SMELL OF EXHAUST FUMES, SO REMEMBER TO ALWAYS HAVE YOUR CAR WINDOWS CRACKED OPEN A BIT IN ORDER TO LET THE EXHAUST FUMES OUT OF THE BACK AREA OF THE CAR WHERE THE DOS ARE RIDING.
****
at highway speed open windows can cause a strange air pressure in the car...
***
and then one i forgot... carrying a dog in a crate in the car,or a van...be sure there is no hot spot caused by things like muffler.... 
 not a problem if the dog can get away... but in a crate... be careful
----
that concept  of containing a dog in a crate goes to ---???? is that crate in an unpleasent draft in winter.??? ...or  things like that....
---
today is. hay day.. maybe....   the"hay guy" now in salsibury  expected a load  from canada saturday-- sounded good to me so i want to be therte early.  he has a very small yard now..... i hope i can get turned around-  but if a 52foot gets in there, i shoudl  be able to--- unless teh 52 foot truck is still there... which it could be...  should be interesting.

second trip-----then pick up the 35 dog beds from tractor supply.

which presents the problem of the day---   tractor supply will sell  chickens for 5 cents.... or give away the remaining baby chickens---  now i had wanted the carpenter to make me aq portable chicken coop.. and we never got to do it..  so this afternoon i could be blessed with chickens which we need... and just have our normal chicken coop for them ... we have one hen left....if she does not like  children, we could have a problem. 

so expect some chicken maneuvers today,,,, and i will try and get the carpenter to do the coop thing....

and i did make people think more like dogs.....

Hi Carlene, 
Listening to my dog has made a big difference, we communicate so much better and I owe it to your teachings. When you said you let the dog choose his person, it was a revelation to me.  I now try and think about what my dog is saying.  It's added a richness to our relationship.  Taking time to figure out what he is saying is so important.  
Thank you, you are truly a master!-----Pamela
