« on: March 03, 2006, 03:21:02 pm »
Well, my sister got some bad & costly news...Their well has run dry so they have no water...They are finding someone to come in & dig a new one but for awhile they have nowhere for their dogs to go unless they board them...Well, joining my Great White Trio will be Chopper the neurotic, nervous Collie & Honey the bossy "somekind of Mix"...lol...We think Beagle maybe...Well, this should be interesting because Pippin tend to be a bit territorial (no!...not a Pyr right?...lol!) & Rosie tried to kill my uncle's dog the last time I sat for her...In Rosie's defense & after further review my uncle's dog "started it" but didn't have the strength & youth to back up her bark...The 1st & only time Rosie met Chopper she jumped the baby gate to the kitchen to beat Chopper up after hours of Chopper pacing, barking & just being a general annoyance...Ro sie has never met Honey...Oh, this should be interesting! ::)...Samson, I think, would get along with the devil himself after he got to know him...lol..so that shouldn't be a problem...Did I mention that Pippin & Chopper have had a few minor tiffs in the past too?...Well,I am rambling here...sorry!...I just need some fingers & paws crossed that this won't be the puppy playdate from h*ll!!!!!!!!!!!!...I will keep you all updated!

I sincerely hope so Lins!!...They will be here in a couple of hours...Did I mention my dogs only have free roam of 2 rooms?...They have 3/4 an acre fenced in for playing...The house is for relaxing in...I hope my sister's dogs get it...I am afraid this is going to be a juggling act! :-\

Good luck!  You may not be on here much...being the ref. and all!  Paws and fingers crossed that everybody adapts and gets along.  How long do you 'get' to do this???

Well, my BIL decided he would stay home with the animals & just bring them water from the neighbors & shower & stuf at his mom's so Honey is going home...Chopper & Honey are pretty bonded so I am glad they will be together...We had fun with her though!...She is such a sweet little dog!...I am glad my boys did well with her & Rosie could at least be in the same room with her for the most part...We will keep working on it as my sister's family & us spend alot of time together in the spring & summer...Here's a pic of Honey for ya's!...The shelter thought she might be Cocker Spaniel & German Shepard...She is really long with short legs...What do you guys think she might be?

Honey looks like she has Dachshund in her, but i dunno what else. MAYBE beagle or Basset. the longer coat could come from the Doxies, they come in either smooth, wire or long coat. a very pretty and mysterius (SP!) dog! she's a looker! how big is she??? maybe some sort of spaniel. i really don't see the terrier-i dunno. i am blabbering so i am gonna shut up now.

She's about 35 lbs. now....Everyon e that meets her thinks she must have Doxie in her...I think Spaniel too...Isn't that a Spaniel type tail?
