Lucy Lucy's about 2 1/2??? - and finally at her goal weight of 55 lbs. (Poor thing was only 42.5 when I rescued her from "dog death row!"

The survivors recover Thanks guys - it is even MORE funny today. I must've looked like Lucille Ball (with Lucy being my Ethel) I still am laughing. Thanks for letting me share.

New Law I think we need a "vending machine specific law" to replace the BSLs on dogs! Something like "all vending machines must be muzzled in public" or something equally inane!

brave kitty By the way, Simba (aptly named) is one tough cookie- he really doesn't know he's a cat- he thinks he's a boston terrier/boxer mix! He won't even play with cat toys (except feathers) - he plays with the dogs and their toys. About a month ago, he was walking through the living room...

the moth monster... Well it's amazing... the moth-monster seems to be able to change its size... I was sure it was about 4 ft across with big fangs when it was flying at me, but after I conquered it(insert brave pose here...) it was about 6 inches across - still HUGE by moth standards, but ugh...

understanding Please don't think I understand where you're coming from, and I too am right with you. But calling an awesome pit a boxer doesn't help the pit breed, either. I don't think there's really a good answer to this one - wouldn't it be great if we had all the answers? :) I...

OMG! while I was in the middle of posting a reply, my cat comes FLYING into my office, in hot pursuit of something. It was BIG, had wings, and was bouncing off EVERYTHING! I about peed my pants! All I could think of was BAT!!! Good thing all 3 of my "fearless (or is that fearful?) protectors...

zoom groom best results... to get the most out of the zzom groom, in short, rapid strokes,(not too hard to be uncomfortable, just invigorating) brush BACKWARDS (against the growth) first. Then, brush the "right" way (head to tail direction) using the same type of stroke. The third step is to...

idiots... It's amazing how much 1 person's ignorance (and stupidity) can affect so many. I wonder how many other dogs were "labeled" by this "dog expert"! I am also encountering this strange boxer/pit(etc.) confusion... Lu's a brindle, and not only do I get "HE" instead of "SHE", I also get...

Lucy at work with mom, playing the demo dog.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! AND I repeat...GRRRRRRRRRRRRR! I am so upset on so many levels. I grew up in a home where responsible breeding took place (not boxers, but Boston terriers). We were highly selective about how often (a bitch was never used more than once per year, and we only produced 1-2...
