The dog musing/vent thread

Clean Run is having a $45 sale on Paw Pods and Targets. Ok it's only like $7 off the regular price, but I want. WHY? I will probably use them twice and then forget about them. But still. I wish I was independently wealthy.

Welp, Patton's making his conformation debut next weekend.

:rofl1: :rofl1: :rofl1:

Because why not spend $8 to embarrass ourselves and have a blast doing it?

He and Tulsa can fail together.

Say what? :rofl1:

I think Didgie is coming into heat. She's all swollen and the boys think she smells great.

I also have a big disc comp I've been looking forward to all year in 2 weeks. There is a chance she'll hold off or be done if she comes in right now but....not looking good.

I hate girls.

That's why I spay, I know every one has their reasons, but for me, putting 3 very thing on hold because my girl is in heat just wouldn't work for me.

The dog world is really really really really really REALLY small. It is amazing. It's very small locally, but I was also looking at different standings and title holders and recognize some of the people. Even Barn Hunt...I was looking through the title holders and spotted multiple Chazzers' dogs .

And that's why I wanted to steal Traveler instead

I miss baby Mia.

Naperville AWI & UFO? Is she the only one you compete with?

Yep, Naperville. I'm going to do the toss and catch with the boys but she was my freestyle dog.

Fingers crossed.

I'll cross my fingers for you! I really want to see her routine!

Time goes by so fast.... Summer @ 4 years.

Either way, I'll see you there!

Kept the collar. Sat it on my pillow. But every time I look at it I want to cry again.

Can't wait!

Elsie went to work for four hours with me today, and was perfect. I love having a dog that's just fun to be around!

I was on a walk with Juno & Cajun tonight and we pass someone on the sidewalk, as we're side by side he says to me "they don't bite, do they?" I say nope, he says oh okay, we all carry on walking. I just.... don't get when people ask that lol. He wasn't interested in petting them, they weren't approaching him, they were just walking with me.

I mean really, was there any expectation that I was going to say "yeah, all the time!!" And since you've pretty much already walked past them, does it change anything at all? I don't know I just find it weird lol I guess I understand they can look intimidating... if only he knew them and what babies they are.

Gave both boys bully sticks.

Life is peace.

Life is wonderful.


Also I am SO proud of them both (mostly Payton) - neither is crated. We were down in my parent's office for a bit so I could use their printer, and they were less than a yard apart and nobody grouched or tried to covet thy neighbors bully stick. Just quietly, peacefully chewing. And they each carried their own bully stick back upstairs and found their own spot to chew upstairs here, no grouching, just quietly, peacefully chewing. I really wasn't sure how it would go when I gave them both a bully stick down there within such close quarters - so thrilled.


NOW WE WILL ADD A THIRD BOY AND IT WILL BE CHAOS AGAIN

You know what's strange? Leaving my dog alone and coming back to find that she's moved my water bottle... like... FAR from where it had been. Either her or a ghost.

And there's no bite marks or anything. Aside from a bit of marker (we mark our bottles with our initials in this house, otherwise we'd get confused as to which bottle is whose) off of the cap, nothing is messed up with the bottle.

It's just weird. She's never done weird stuff like this before, but this is the fourth time my water bottle's been moved. I thought it was odd the first few times, but now I'm a bit creeped out.
