Hahahahaha

I didn't even pay any attention to those bits in the oak trees. Those are nothing more than clumps of mistletoe in the bare trees.

Now I am no arborist or horticulture but I believe mistletoe is a fungus that grows in our Oaks in CA. Ok, I had to look up one of the words you mentioned "saprophytes", so by definition, you are spot on... well played!

Cheers

Had to put down Lana this morning, an 8 year old Maltese. She was a great, very loving little dog. I've never had to put a dog down before and it was absolutely terrible. She didn't suffer, went quickly and quietly. I think someone was chopping onions when they injected her! She was pretty much my wife's dog and she is devastated.

I started a thread 2 years ago about a disc issue she was having. She recovered from that but her heart started to go, over the summer (valve issue). In the past two days she really started to get worse.

Got a Sick Dog, Need Help, Advice...

The DOG thread

Sorry to hear that GG. Making that decision is one of the hardest to make. Feels like someone cleaves out the heart in your chest with a dull butter knife.

She looks like she was a great family member.

Dog's are soooo damned smart. With the master bath remodel in full swing, an army of workers are in the house by 7am. We noticed right away that Tank was staying close to my wife. He started walking her to the door in the morning when she leaves, a new behavior. When they're not here, he doesn't do it. When the workers are here and I leave, he literally won't leave her side and growls at every sound. Now the workers won't come unless I'm home. Good boy Tank!

Oh, I'm so sorry GG. It hurts so bad to loose a dog.

Bravo Tank!!! They know!!! Our ancient cat hates our oldest. I always tell him that animals sense evil.

Good pup.

That is all that is needed.
