I hear ya about the choking hazard. Mine never get pistachios.....two happened to fall on the floor and badda bing they were instantly processed by a blue blur....lol.

Never gave any peanuts....peanut butter yes....love peanut butter!

Try giving yours a Mento sometime...very entertaining.

I thought only my Cockatoo was that smart!

I have two Macaws who eat Pistachios as a main part of their diet. My two Italian Greyhounds - Enzo and Amore - grab the unopened Pistachios that end up on the floor and neatly crack them open and eat the nut inside. I find shell halves in my bedroom all the time.

If you have a functioning male in the house, keep them separated.
Keep her on leash, even in a fenced yard, to do her business. Horned up males are adept at getting to her. Nature always finds a way to propagate.
If she is spotting you will have some clean up, but again you can isolate and determine where she spots.
Best of luck and congratulations on your new girl.

My g/f has been away visiting her family for Christmas the last 2 weeks with another week to go and is missing home so I whipped this up last night after a short afternoon out.

Fantastic, and your pup gets to ride home in a Porsche!
Was the site a military base prior?

[Baz]

Nice video Jae!

So the Marly and me segment conveys they didn't give Marley enough "activities"?

You know what they say...."A tired Cattledog is a good Cattledog!"

Thanks for sharing - onya!

[J1NX3D]

haha thanks.

hi Matt, yes it was an old airforce bomb dump. The air base was decomissioned earlier this year but had been unused for a couple of years. its been turned into a major housing development with a new school and other infrastructure. She makes a mess of my car! but nothing I can't clean up.

Okay, Jalops. Time to put your crime-fighting hats on once again. This time it's not just a car owner who needs our help, but a pup named Lexy.

Over at the Pirate 4x4 forums, user heavytic reported that on Thursday night, his 1985 FJ60 Land Cruiser was stolen from a South Carolina Wal-Mart parking lot. That would suck enough for anyone, but the worst part by far is that his 6-month-old German short-haired pointer Lexy was in the truck when it got stolen, and now she's gone too.

Needless to say, the OP is a wreck. He says he's filed a police report and notified his local news stations, but as of Saturday neither Lexy nor the Land Cruiser have been recovered.

I'm a dog owner myself and I can't even imagine how awful this must be. My heart goes out to you, man.

Be on the lookout for this car, folks, and hopefully this pooch will get reunited with her person sooner rather than later. And that the thief will get what's coming to him.

Thanks for the tips everyone! Help Find The Scumbag Who Stole This Land Cruiser With A Dog Inside

Updated: Owner reunited with stolen dog, SUV recovered, 2 charged

[Buckterrier]

That's awesome Enzo!!! Thanks for posting the update.

Stealing a vehicle is one thing.

To steal a man's dog.......hanging would be too good for those punks!
