Actually, Gary was thinking of you and your pup. Gary figured you experienced something similar. Thanks for the heads-up.

Sadie Mae by virtue of being 4 when we got her, was a little more settled, but Britts by nature are HIGH ENERGY. We got Millie as a 12 week old, for the first year of her life she thought her name was "MILLIE DAMMIT". Into everything, AT ONCE.

Gary's daughter has a Golden Retriever with a similar name, "Holly No!".

We had a Shepherd mix named W. Axle Rose (Axle) for short. I could stop that dog from doing ANYTHING with a NO.
Miss that dog terribly!

Can't tell these dogs anything.

Another GREAT dog from the past was a Red Lab named Chelsea. She could clear a 4 foot fence but wouldn't. You could place a food item on her nose and she'd leave it there until given permission.

One of these dogs will take food off your plate while you watch.

Webster thinks he is me, he gets yelled at a lot too. I don't think I've yelled at him once. He seems to listen to me but not Momma, kind of like me....

Maggie is a Terrorist ... Terrier. Fortunately for the Potato Family, Wheaten are the most calm of Terriers. We looked for a rescue but couldn't find any. Wheatens are few and far between.

So... is she a Whole Wheaten, a Cream of Wheaten, a Puffed Wheaten or a Shredded Wheaten?

Actually and technically, she is a "Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier".

 

[snowbear121 53]

I'll take that as Puffed Wheaton

 

[Gary A.]

Presently, she is a Tired Wheaten.

The sun is finally coming out. There was a slight shower this morning, quite odd for here. Maggie had her first stroll in the rain ... most likely triggered her genes and reminded her of Ireland. Temps should break 70F today. Last night dinner in the patio, thin sliced and BBQed chicken for our guests. Gary never prepared thin sliced before. He marinated the chicken in a teriyaki augments with spices, peppers and herbs. It came out crispy with a slight sweet flavor and a bit of pepper kick. A guest brought this Russian Babka for dessert. It was delish.

Gee, she wore out the monkey too.

Monty Python pops into my mind too sometimes at rather inopportune times. Of course if it's during a boring meeting or something, that's OK.

I think something like that is a sort of relief or way of coping or whatever you want to call it. Our minds I think try to self protect to help deal with whatever's going on that's hard to take in. Sounds like people there are still somewhat in shock or it hasn't really sunk in yet.

That's Gary Wheaten's, he alway's working his monkey

How much more tired could Maggie make Pix's ferrets?

 

[davidharmier60]

This was Axel.
Under Axel is Purrana.

Ugh - just tried that new Halo Top ice cream for the first time. I've been dieting so haven't had ice cream in a while. This was so good and is very low cal (for ice cream) and I got carried away and ate way too much of it. Look out Maggie I'm coming in for a nap.
