That f*cking dog

[Tab]

practically clawed my face off tonight. Bled for two hours...

I swear I don't know why he's still alive.

Someone call the SPCA tomorrow and have them come and see if he survived the night.

1. Wow

You need to get rid of that animal.

[hippywife]

2. Damn!

Were you standing between him and the kitchen counter? Sorry, bud. :hug:

[Tab]

3. No, actually he was trying to curry favor and hide from the Border Collie

I swear, it's like raising a pack of animals.

4. You ARE raising a pack of animals.

You OK? Had something handy to apply to your face? Will be thinking of you!

[Tab]

5. Yeah, I know

I'm a sarcastic asshole.

On the bright side, after my surgery for colon cancer, I should be less of an asshole.

Time will tell.

9. Naw.....I'm afraid you wont get any help there

Sarcastic assholeyness and colons aren't really connected.
I've had colon bits removed twice and it didn't help at all. :)

12. Can girls be assholes?

I though only guys could.

[Lucinda]

15. Yup. But men do see to be in the majority.

6. That's awful

Maybe he needs his nails trimmed?

Or some time with a trainer?

He wouldn't have a home with us if he did that to anyone.

7. I used to train dogs, and breed them

and we've had show quality dogs, and I've had dozens of dogs.

This one is singularly more trouble than any collection of others, even beating out the Border Collie / Schizophrenic mix.

He's a smart dog, and actually very trainable, and I have had more instant results with him than any other. Regardless...

In this case he was just trying to climb into my lap and paw me. But, dammit, he caught a nasty angle and gave me a good wipe.

He is a generally sweet dog. Sort of a nice teenager.

8. That's a whole lot different

from your OP.

Bleeding for two hours - that's not good..............

[Tab]

10. He caught me at a bad place

and I'm blood thinners, and have a compromised immune system to boot.

Didn't mean to be different than my OP (not sure that I was) but anyway...

Are you coming to get me, Lucinda? I'm waiting for you...

[hippywife]

11. Hope that heals up okay for you.

I didn't realize you were on blood thinners, too. Sorry you had such a hard time tonight. Really I am. You've been having such a hard run of luck with stuff lately. :hug:

We just got back in the house. I went out for a minute and some of the black chickens were out of bed in the garden which just doesn't happen after dusk and especially not after dark. Then I heard a big commotion in their hen house, the buffs were still in there throwing a fit. Bill plugged in the brooder lamp and I went around and found a good sized possum in there. Bill got the hoe and went in there and scooted it out. It climbed up the fence and back down in the garden and squeezed it's big butt through a large enough opening. We had to catch all the black chickens and put them back in the hen house, shut and locked the door. We usually leave it open so they can come out in the morning when they want to. We're going to leave the brooder lamp on in there for at least tonight so it will be less likely to come back. I'm glad we were able to get it out without killing it but I hate the thought of closing the door every night.

I'm heading for the bed. Animals! :crazy:

[Tab]

13. Now, a black chicken...

would that make a cajun sandwich without having to deal with the spice?

Oh wait, black, not blackened....

Damn, you almost had me going out and buying chickens...

[Lucinda]

14. Naw.....the ditty left my onboard juke box. You're safe.

THIS time. :)

[Tab]

16. Hey, Lucinda...

Suck on this...

Muskrat, muskrat candlelight
Doin' the town and doin' it right
In the evenin'
It's pretty pleasin'

Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam
Do the jitterbug out in muskrat land
And they shimmy
And Sammy's so skinny

And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
Singin' and jingin' the jango
Floatin' like the heavens above
It looks like muskrat love

Nibbling on bacon, chewin' on cheese
Sammy says to Susie "Honey, would you please be my missus?"
And she say yes
With her kisses

And now he's ticklin' her fancy
Rubbin' her toes
Muzzle to muzzle, now anything goes
As they wriggle, and Sue starts to giggle

And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
Singin' and jingin' the jango
Floatin' like the heavens above
It looks like muskrat love

La da da da da ...

Then you can come and get me...
