i'm not what you would call a dog person.
of course, it's true that, next to the television's remote control, dog is man's best friend.
perhaps my justified ambivalence toward poochicus biteyourbuttabit is due to too many an untoward encounter with the snarling, hydrophobic malevolence of a fido, a rover, a rin tin tin, intent on my evisceration.
Welcome back, panhandlegirl!
I'm sorry for your loss -- it is devastating. In the many years I've cared for pets, we've lost several: mine and those of clients. We appreciate that you shared your own story, and if you ever have more to say on the subject, this is the thread!
Best wishes to you and yours. Good luck with your future training!!!

See you tomorrow and stay safe.
Done all I can for now. If I vacuum, I'll wake up the pooches.

O, how I wish, dear Hortensia!
Have had to turn down several recent invitations due to all my clients' being gone themselves. Don't want to sound ungrateful as I stay in beautiful homes for weeks on end, getting fed and paid, but my only companions are tale-waggers. Sweet, but conversation is hardly cerebral . . .
THANKS!
Love,

(this may offend some sincere 'christians'.
can you, as a human, stop yourself from breathing?.
i have always thought that one of the basic teachings of 'christianity' is the concept that we are "mere sinners"...riddled with guilt and not worthy of god or life...undeserved kindness has been shown to us etc.... but, we have no control over that, just as we have no control over breathing air!.
In a nutshell, what I've read recently about the so-called redeemer religions:
The original nature-based religions fulfilled the basic needs of humanity, but the arrival of the dominator patriarchal Judeo-Christian/Islam faiths quashed what truly satisfied man's spiritual and physical requirements. What was created was an artifice that perplexed the practical-minded indigenous folk who were converted -- or not -- by the sword. Their culture, their writings, their lives were destroyed.
Invented -- ??? -- was the supreme father deity, his choosing of a special people, his giving them a unique work (preaching salvation) and, last, his visiting destruction (Apocalypse) upon those not heeding said message.
Sound familiar?
