16 Jan 19 - 11:40 AM (#3971735) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: Donuel In the spirit of Dan's Wisdom, I see Donnie as a clear and present danger when he says any attempt to remove him will result in the people rising up and fighting the 'deep state democrats'. I JUST DON'T SEE THAT. For people to be willing to fight and die for Trump, any Trump, sounds like people are willing to fight and die for Jimmy Fallon or Steve Doocy or Tucker Carlson. America is NOT willing to die for its entertainers*. So if the choice is for a fence or a functioning government, I choose an impenetrable fence around the White House. *I would deeply miss Stephen Colbert and Bill Mahre. |

16 Jan 19 - 09:28 PM (#3971835) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: Stilly River Sage My Lab has a "toy box," that is in fact a large brass planter or such - he heads over and pulls out his bumpers (for fetch) or ball (for fetch) or chew toys or knotted rope (for fetch or tug-o-war). And this week he turned from the bin with one of his bumpers and the new blue heeler took it from him and turning, handed it to me. They are working suspiciously in-tandem to get what they want - to play fetch. |

20 Jan 19 - 10:43 PM (#3972525) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: leeneia Come to think of it, if a dachshund were an outdoor dog living on a farm, it would probably never encounter anything in the nature of a bed. A bale of hay might be a similar height, but why would it climb a bale of hay? There are steps for dogs, but would be remember to use them? Dan, maybe you'll have to sleep on an air mattress from now on. |

The results show up inside of 3 weeks to a year. For example total paralysis within 3 weeks of injections has healed 3 of four legs to function again. yes I am making the innuendo that what works for our dogs can work for us. A key is to not wait for stem cell treatment. |

11 Feb 19 - 09:56 AM (#3976127) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: keberoxu If the grey is a former racing dog, why on earth would she NOT zoom on occasion? |
|
11 Feb 19 - 10:14 AM (#3976130) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: Senoufou I think all dogs should have a daily opportunity to 'zoom'. They're naturally predisposed to run, chase and hunt. The problem arises when they won't come back for ages, despite their frantic owners calling and whistling. Our neighbours' two dogs (Logie and Molly) go out in the fields and have a huge 'zoom'. Sometimes they're naughty and don't respond to a recall until they've nearly run their legs off. Once or twice they've darted in and out of the river, and come home a bit smelly and covered in thick mud. But I reckon they adore it. |

11 Feb 19 - 07:01 PM (#3976225) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: keberoxu There is an obvious reason why even a dachshund living on a farm would climb anything whatever. Dachshunds are earthdogs [which is what terrier means] and they are bred to hunt. Just because they are named for badgers doesn't mean they would turn up their long noses at smaller vermin! Sure, dachshunds are better at digging than climbing, but try reasoning with a dachshund who just spotted something small that smelled like it ought to be chased and hunted ... |

18 Feb 19 - 09:25 PM (#3977673) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: Bee-dubya-ell I just put up a new fence for my dog too. Actually, it's not a fence to keep my dog in the yard or anything like that. It's a fence to keep my dog out of the compost pile. It should keep her from wallowing in rotten potatoes and out-of-date blue cheese dressing. Now, if she wants to get all stinky, she'll have to go find some deer guts to wallow in. |

18 Feb 19 - 11:23 PM (#3977680) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: Neil D On a serious note, I recommend getting pet insurance for your pets, preferably when you first get them, when there aren't yet any pre-existing condition.

01 Jul 19 - 05:28 PM (#3998751) Subject: RE: BS: For my dog From: keberoxu Apropos of Fourth of July fireworks, I read a first-person account of someone who adopted a rescue dog from the Cairn Terrier rescue people. The terrier needed a lot of medical treatment before he was put up for adoption, because he had skin problems and was itchy all over and stuff; neglect on more than one count. But he was an extrovert and he loves humans, and no matter what people were doing to him, he kept wagging his tale happily. Foster volunteers house-trained the little rescue terrier, and then he went to his forever home. Where the Fourth of July happened. And what did the little cairn terrier do? He celebrated. Every time the fireworks went off, he hopped up in the air and barked his scratchy voiced little bark, and looked delighted. In fact, he really wanted to head out to the patio through the sliding doors so that he could hunt and catch whatever was making that joyful noise. The terrier thought the whole thing was great fun. |
