As in, I wonder why in the world I have two dogs?<br /><br />I apologize to my folks' neighbors and their town's noise ordinance. Boomer was just lonely since he was in the fenced yard alone. The leaping Rosie had to be on a tieout, so naturally she howled and he yipped until my aging parents went out to get them in the house.<br /><br />Thank you to my sister who heard them and rescued my mom from a possible second broken hip caused by a dog.(It was her own dog the first time though).<br /><br />Thoroughly enjoyed reading your letters.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02417120299405154570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-41421699658881643172009-07-20T15:53:18.778-05:002009-07-20T15:53:18.778-05:00The red bandana man sounds too cool for school.The red bandana man sounds too cool for school.Lawyer Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04487040434589941351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-63879499241078894162009-07-20T14:59:48.397-05:002009-07-20T14:59:48.397-05:00I try not to get mad at our young lab when he wipe...I try not to get mad at our young lab when he wipes my feet out from under me.<br />Because really, it is pretty funny.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12346270516836690158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-62814976861696387002009-07-20T12:43:39.859-05:002009-07-20T12:43:39.859-05:00There you go again, making me laugh out loud, in t...There you go again, making me laugh out loud, in the office,, in front of my boss...hopefully he'll catch on...that my quality of work life has gone down the toilet and maybe fire me before I quit!<br /><br /><br />-KimAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14011213468397062735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-42317505363884657942009-07-20T11:43:50.301-05:002009-07-20T11:43:50.301-05:00Funny.

As a fellow dog owner, I can only offer the following:<br /><br />I hate it when people let their kids run up to my dogs without finding out first if he's friendly - and then blame me if he's not. However, I would NEVER leave an unsafe dog unattended, let alone in a children's play area.<br /><br />Also, the dog with the red bandana was perhaps wearing it to demonstrate his tendency to bite, in the same manner as a horse gets a red ribbon tied on his tail in the hunting field if he's likely to kick. It's a convention you find in many multi-dog gatherings. However, you'd think he'd be more careful having an aggressive dog offlead in a public place, wouldn't you?<br /><br />I love the way you wrote these. And I'd like to admit now that once upon a time my perfectly friendly and well-behaved greyhound had a little mutt right off it's feet and somersaulted it head over heels ("yip-yip-yip-yip-yoooowl!") when he ran at full speed into the near-invisible extending lead held by an unsuspectedly profane little old lady. Who'd have thought she even knew such language? ;)jayhttp://www.thedeppeffect.comnoreply@blogger.com
