Mixed Breed Discussion / Ya gotta love this...sad but true
« on: May 11, 2005, 09:14:15 am »
Please help!!!! After two long years of being on  a waiting list for an
agility dog, we have been notified by the  breeder that, at long last, our number
has come up and...WE ARE HAVING A  PUPPY!!!

We must get rid of our children IMMEDIATELY because  we just know how time
consuming our new little puppy is going to be  and it just wouldn't be fair to
the children. Since our little puppy will be  arriving on Monday we MUST place
the children into rescue  this weekend!

They are described as:

One male - His name is  Tommy, Caucasian (English/Irish mix), light blonde
hair, blue eyes. Four  years old. Excellent disposition. He doesn't bite.
Temperament tested.  Does have problems with peeing directly in the toilet. Has had
chicken  Pox and is current on all shots. Tonsils have already been removed.
Tommy  eats everything, is very clean, house trained & gets along well  with
others. Does not run with scissors and with a little training he  should be able
to read soon.

One female - Her name is Lexie,  Caucasian (English/Irish mix), strawberry
blonde hair, green eyes,  quite freckled. Two years old. Can be surly at
> > > times.  Non-biter, thumb sucker. Has been temperament tested but needs
a little  attitude adjusting occasionally. She is current on all shots,
tonsils  out, and is very healthy & can be affectionate. Gets along well with  other
little girls & little boys but does not like to share her toys  and therefore
would do best in a one child household. She is a very quick  learner and is
currently working on her house training-shouldn't take long at  all.

We really do LOVE our children so much and want to do what's right  for them;
that is why we contacted a rescue group. But we simply can no longer  keep
them. Also, we are afraid that they may hurt our new puppy.

I hope  you understand that ours is a UNIQUE situation and we have a real
emergency  here!!! They MUST be placed into your rescue by Sunday night at the
latest or  we will be forced to drop them off at the orphanage or along some
dark,  country road. Our priority now has to be our new puppy!

As I've mentioned, I have a bullmastiff mix and a black lab mix who are 1 and 1 1/2 respectively.  They are not droolers, thank goodness, but I can't for the life of me figure out where all the slime in the water bowl comes from!!  My other two dogs, who are older and pickier, won't drink from it once it's nasty and I can't say that I blame them! 
Since I have 4 big dogs, I initially thought that a 2 gallon waterer would help me cut down on refilling the bowl over and over.  Boy was I wrong!!!  I still have to dump and wash the dish over and over again! 

Is there anyway to keep it clean for a few more hours at a time?!?!
