i grew a brain...and got a book. actually, 4.
« on: July 11, 2005, 03:12:19 pm »
yes, thats right.  i went to the library (to get another dan brown book), and wound up walking out of there with 4 doggie books. 

the one i started is a housetraining book.  and on page 18, i had a tear form in my eye.  it said, that in a litter where the mother dies, you will probably have a harder time training them not to crap and pee in your house!  it said at week 3, the mother starts to teach them that is not acceptable and so on and so forth....and that it would be harder to break these pups (or 7 month old angus), of going in the house....

thats a far as i've gotten...but it sure does explain why angus is the first dog i haven't potty trained with in a couple of weeks at most.  its been driving me crazy....but now, some hope!

ive got 300 pages to read....and i'll be back to let ya know what i have to do from here on out!

not that you care...but i do

hehe....NIC

Oh, I love Lula!  She is my favorite.  In the latest one Bob the dog is always pooping out or throwing up some article of clothing that he ate.  She must have a dog!

By the way Janet Evanovich has the next book out in hardcover to that series, I havent managed to get my paws on it yet. My favorite character is Ranger...He could park his boots under my bed anytime. MMMmmmmm

Stella, he is on his way!  Look for the big cardboard box with the airholes poked in it and the drool stains!   :D
