I was kidding.

Our two won’t eat until my wife gets home...they just seem to know when she’ll be gone for the night and let me feed them.

Dogs are great.

I know you were kidding. I been hit in the head pretty hard, but not that many times.

Our pit will wait until my wife tells him he can eat. She walked away and forgot to tell him okay one time. He sat there and drooled until she came back ten minutes later. First time she went to see her folks after we got him, he ate the morning she left, then didn't eat for two days.

I pity the fool that breaks into the house if my wife is in there with those dogs. Can you imagine the mess when you pulled them off?

John, you say some whacky stuff

I aint the Lorax but believe it's true

Now, researchers from the University of Michigan and Texas A&M suggest that these pesky particles could be playing a more productive role. Their study in Geophysical Research Letters, a journal of the American Geophysical Union, suggests pollen grains released by trees may make it rain.

Working from home has its perks.

Had to say goodbye to the love of my life and best friend 1 month ago today. Loved her dearly. Was the hardest worst experience ever - same as with Billabong 2 years ago (Lymphoma).

I held her the entire time...told her I loved her...and it would be OK. I buried her in the front yard wrapped in her favorite blanket when I got home.

She would have turned 17 this month. I raised her from an 8 week old puppy....

Sorry to hear about your pup, Baz.

“Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really.” Agnes Sligh Turnbull

well that sucks

Sorry to hear that Baz. It sure hurts.

But you gave her the best life she could have had.

Gee Baz, I am so sorry for your loss. She was always an adventure, some of us really enjoyed it from far away. She is certainly missed.
Dan

Baz, very sorry to hear of your loss. The bonds between human and animal are very strong

Baz, for you and your pup, one of the great love songs. You all knew, they sing this to you, Baz:

This Must Be The Place

Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me around
I feel numb, born with a weak heart
I guess I must be having fun

The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground, head in the sky
It's okay, I know nothing's wrong, nothing

Oh! I got plenty of time
Oh! You got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money, always for love
Cover up and say goodnight, say goodnight

Home, is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home, she lifted up her wings
I guess that this must be the place

I can't tell one from the other
I find you, or you find me?
There was a time before we were born
If someone asks, this is where I'll be, where I'll be oh!

We drift in and out
Oh! Sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
You got a face with a view

I'm just an animal looking for a home and
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till I'm dead

Eyes that light up
Eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head I got ooh!

Oh Man! I am sorry Baz.

It is always so hard when the bill finally comes due for all the happiness your pup gave you through his life.....So goddamned hard to say goodbye.

here ya go..........

OMG Baz! So sorry to hear the terrible news. It goes without saying your heart is breaking. I don't think another dog (dogs) in the history of dogs received more love.

Thanks all for your kindness. It took me a month before I could even post about losing my baby because I was still trying to process everything. I don't have to tell anyone here how hard a situation it is when you have make that decision.

Winkipop is the second Heeler I lost. I never posted about losing Billabong 2 years ago.

I'll always be grateful for the best 15-17 years a human could ever hope for with my girls by my side - through thick and thin. Now when I come home - there's no one waiting for me - and I'm still not used to that. Same as when I leave the house. No one to say goodbye to as I did all those years.

Winkipop came into my life in '05. The very next year we adopted Billabong - so Winkipop had a sister. That lasted until 2020 when Lymphoma took Billabong away. And now they are both reunited in puppy heaven.

Don't ever let anyone tell you it's a bad idea to have more than one dog. Getting Billabong was the best decision of my life!

Thank you again for the love, guys.....hugs and belly rubs to your babies.....

Sorry for your loss Baz. We lost our boy back in March, I posted about it a few pages ago.

We decided to foster a pup, Fidget:

Ended up being a great match, and last week we formally turned it into an adoption.

Thanks, Dad. I remember your post about little Marcus. They are such brave little ones, aren't they? So very humbling.

CONGRATS on your new rescue! He or she? Either way I love the name "Fidget". Great photo! Looks like some Heeler DNA in there....oh boy......:p
