It is so uncharacteristic of JRT's to not bark, my first question is why aren't they your alarm dogs? Did you train them not to bark/alert?

for in the house, I know some people use scent to identify objects for blind dogs. a dab of vanilla on a q-tip then place 6" or so in front of the base of the steps/furniture will help him to know...

Sacre-ledge! Dear Gawd, please for geeve theese anti believer!:winkgrin:

Oh man, Waning Moon...that was really funny. Glad it turned out ok

Oh wow.....I'm glad I wasn't drinking my coffee when I read this. Talk about tag teaming! This is funny.

I remember the other post about Story.

I am sorry for you.

Having dealt with dogs like Story, and having one at the present time that is a gray area dog, I would suggest euthing her. She's...

unauthorized hunting? Yes. And if I remember correctly Angel didn't stay on her property but roamed the neighborhood.

Also, just a note: wildlife around here = deer. Vermin=rats/mice/squirrels.

It's ok to chase wildlife?

I commented on it but you wanted to go a different route that took much longer. If she were that smart, she should have been caught much earlier.

I don't agree with the mindset that just because...

My goodness.

What a thread.

first suggestion (and I believe it was suggested before) to the OP, if you feel unsafe....choose somewhere else to go. Prevention is always better than fallout.

well color me embarassed.

yes, I thought we were talking pellet STOVES. Sorry folks. They do burn as long but there is a bit more ash.

$250 a ton wood pellets

something less than that for cherry pits.

Cherry pits are new to me this year, they burn MUCH hotter than the pellets.

has anyone else used them?

I did not adopt any. Instead am concentrating on keeping what I have so I do not add another one to the already overcrowded and over whelmed rescues.

Maybe it's just me, but I kinda thought that if someone is asking, I'd answer their question. It's quite a jump from asking for advice and getting multiple replies of "see the vet" to free advice =...

this is a question for all the outraged members posting to this thread.

Frequent bathing, once a week is good and make sure you use high quality dog food.

This doesn't sound abnormal but I think I'd still make an appointment with the vet to make sure there is not a retained placenta or something. Some discharge is going to be normal till the uterus...

I've got a g'daughter of Story Man (GMG son) who is as mellow as they come. I love the Story Man horses.

get yourself a clicker, learn to use it and click only quiet behavior. The barking will not be rewarded and she will quit.

looks like enhanced IM and email. Easier photo sharing and incorporates other apps like Twitter.
