General Board for Big Dogs with Big Paws / Re: Big Snow for the Northeast...the dogs are going to be very happy!
« on: February 10, 2006, 11:50:01 pm »
Supposed to start here tomorrow and last through the day....6 to 12 inches depending on which weather station you listen to.
Hubby will snow blow a path out around the backyard because Jack has special needs.....he's a wussy house dog who doesn't like to get his feet wet.
Jilly LOVES the snow. She will leap into the deepest snow and hopes to sink in.
Daisy hasn't got to experience the really deep stuff yet because this winter has been so mild. She does love to watch to flakes fall from the sky.
Everyone with fresh snow tomorrow.....I challenge you to FRESH PICTURES!!!

Anything Non-Dog Related / Re: OH NO, Lucy (my kitty) in is heat early!
« on: February 05, 2006, 12:07:26 pm »
Oh....our foster kitty, Binks, went into heat while she was still nursing her kittens! I can see why there is such a problem!
The vet told me a week!
It was the longest week of my life!
After 24 hours I didn't like her much anymore.
It was terrible!!! Cats in heat are HORRIBLE!
But hold tight. Don't give in. Don't throw her outside.
I've seen the light and it's good!
Binks has been fixed, she's healed, and now she's back to her friendly, wonderful, non-yowling self.
Oh yea....and she's no longer a foster kitty. She lives here now.
Good luck!

Hey....Daisy started out in Tennessee too!
None of these northern dogs even make fun of her accent.
I'm sure he will fit in just fine.
I wonder what he will think of the snow!!!
Hope loves it as much as Daisy does.
Sounds like he is on his way to a BPO happy ending.

Anything Non-Dog Related / Appliance Delivery Tip?
« on: February 03, 2006, 04:25:20 pm »
Washer and dryer are being delivered today...by a different company than orignally planned. Sears delivery contractor refused to deliver yesterday because they felt our driveway was too slippery. Don't get me started.
Anyway...husba nd just asked me about tip amount for the delivery guys because he likes to be sure we are on the same page about such things. We like to have a general amount in mind before the delivery people show up and adjust accordingly based on how it goes.
- Delivery of washer and dryer < 24 hrs after purchase
- Saturday delivery
- Paid extra for delivery & setupÂ
- laundry room is on first floor of home so 3 front steps are involved in delivery (no major stairs)
- old washer & dryer are already removed & area is spotless (fear of embarassment on my part)
*not sure what is relevent but added everything I could think of.

I can tell you that Molly is great dog. She's playful and fun.
I've heard Tilly is wonderful but I can't tell you from experience because I haven't met Tilly yet (hint, hint).

That was excellent.
I was amazed by how rapidly Holly located her target in the baseball stadium.
The end of her story left me in tears...tears of joy.
Thanks for the heads up.
If anyone else gets a chance to see this show it's excellent.
