Loving my Oldies

Good morning, Jed. Another day and another small step towards getting better. ;) Good morning, too, to all those people who are keeping her world going. Off to check that my candle is still burning.

It is, along with lip licking, turning head, lowering eyes and a lot of other things according to Turid Rugass. I started reading her little book again last night and I have been using the yawning technique with Sari this morning. Sari gets very agitated (barks and runs around madly) when the other dogs start running around and having a bit of fun. When this happened this morning, I was yawning so much that I was just about passing out . But it worked !! She settled much more quickly than usual and sometimes, this agitation has ended in a fight. Everyone calm again ;) Not that this is helping Kirty - LOL.

Extraordinary! I cannot understand how vets can be so offhand [read negligent ] when dogs are so ill and need to be on a drip. Hope Staffy Boy gets well soon.

Eyes off Chi Chi . I'll be up that way in August and if anyone is going to creep in in the dead of night for a bit of dognapping, it will be ME !!

Only if she is well mannered and covers her mouth when she yawns. This is my understanding since reading "On Talking Terms with Dogs: Calming Signals" by Turid Rugaas. Definitely a little book to have close at hand. But it isn't getting heated, Ravyk ;)

OMG!! They sure know how to cuddle into each other - what a beautiful photo. Hmmm ..... first of all you had only two. Then you heard of Penny so you thought you'd help --- You definitely couldn't have three dogs Then you heard of Banshee so you thought you'd help --- ;) ;) You definitely couldn't have four dogs Yellowgirl, you is HOOKED big time. I reckon they are four very happy and lucky little creatures.

Thinking of Tyson and his ever loving family. The people who own dogs who do this sort of damage must be brought to justice.

Hoping Tyson has made an advancement towards full health.

Very gentle strokes for Penny and good vibes for her quick recovery.

Good morning Jed. I'm checking up on you and giving cyber cuddles to all your babies. ;) ;)

How wonderful to have all those dogs and plenty of room. Do they all get on?

Great photos of beautiful dogs. I'll have George, please.

What fun! They love the long grass.

Yes - Jane, her family and much loved animals are in my thoughts constantly. A wonderful blessing - purr long and loudly little cat.

I don't have much to add, but I hope you can find something the fits the bill. Because I've always had dogs for whom food doesn't seem to be an issue, I have been a bit shocked lately to find Sari and Kisho picking up stuff from the street: Kisho I held his muzzle and made him drop it, but with Sari you'd lose a hand if you tried to do that. I think it was just a piece of crust though and she is still with us, so couldn't have been too bad. Kisho's was possum poo and he dropped it when I told him to. Good boy.

Never a truer word said, Pockets. And considering lawyers, solicitors, judges, legal profession ARE part of society, even scarier.

Carbohydrates - lol. For people: hot sweet tea and sweet biscuits. Same for dogs if they like it. LOL As above, Pandii. ;) Gosh that is awful. Until Sari joined The Moochers, I rarely had problems. The occasional tiff would occur, same as kids and I'd just tell them not to be stupid, pull them apart and all was well. Different story with Sari, but she is an unknown having been rescued from Renbury earlier this year - turns 14 this year. Would pick a fight at the drop of a hat ;)

Some of the earlier ones may have dropped off as they only stay lit for 48 hours. I have lit another one.

So funny - I am feeling down so opened again, and laughed again. I'd love to know what the cop feels about this photo going around the world ;)

Ah, that gave me a much needed laugh, thank you Bub. Lots of love to Bitty and Bubby (and Stolen Hubby of course ) ;)

That's what I thought, too particularly when such a horrific and unprovoked attach has occurred.

Steve's PM is kept full. Send her an email instead . She helping a few families who have lost everything in fires, so I am sure she will appreciate your offer.

Pot and kettle and all that

How utterly ghastly. Poor poor Tyson.

There is a sticky with this information together with the bank details for MDBA.
