Our female dog has virtually no interest in toys. She only plays with our male dog Reuben. He will play fetch inside a few throws with a stuffed toy. They have a few chew toys but those mostly stay in the toy box. Their main focus is the evil squirrel that is in the back yard. It has a nest in the tree in the yard behind our and often comes to our back yard to eat the pears out of our Bradford pear tree. I wish he could eat all of the pears. They are pea size and best. The dogs love to eat them after they ripen and fall off. That gives them real bad gas.

They tree is pretty, but it is nasty messy. It starts in the early spring with the husks of the blooms falling, followed in a few days by the drifts of blooms. The blooms STINK and will blow into drifts. Then the stems that had the blooms fall and those clump together like hair and also bunch up in drifts. Of course once the pears are full size the squirrel with bite them in half and we get a rain of split pears. Then the rest of the pears ripen and fall. They can cost the ground with a layer of messy goo that really sticks to shoes. Then the leaves fall and later the stems from the pears fall ready for the next cycle.

Good Monday morning folks!
