This has always made me nervous about him getting loose. When we lived in the country, I'd turn him loose to go wreak havoc on gophers, not that he ever caught any, but he could tunnel with the best of them. I'd look out the window and see dirt flying with only a white butt sticking up. <br /><br />In town, he loves to get out and go exploring so I've had to get on to him about digging out. Deaf dogs and traffic don't mix well and everyone is not his friend.<br /><br />Most people have to pet him when I have him out because he is so friendly, though, because he is so friendly and he has those pretty blue eyes.<br /><br />Julie Weathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13725236516593676381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-36567770631981329022016-08-06T06:30:07.189-04:002016-08-06T06:30:07.189-04:00Barbara - I used to email back and forth with Dr. ...Barbara - I used to email back and forth with Dr. Coren years ago. Such a nice guy. Thank you for the reminder. I am delighted to see he is still around and I am now following him on Twitter.<br /><br />I had read one of his books about which dog to pick after our beloved golden retriever passed away, we were dogless, and not agreeing on which dog to pick. This particular book had quizzes which ended up telling you which dogs were compatible. It was spot on with me, while also suggesting other breeds I hadn't thought of. My family indulged me and took the quiz and it was accurate with them too. That golden retriever that we received as a gift was indeed the perfect dog for us as a family (unbeknownst to us). <br /><br />If you're between dogs, I highly recommend his books (or if you just want to know more about the dog you already have).

Kari Lynn Dell is the real deal and such a joy.<br /><br />I haven't been ignoring the gone to the dogs. Between illness and other crap going on, I am not fit for human company. I laid down to take a short nap this afternoon because I kept falling asleep while trying to write a blog post and slept until 10:00 pm. <br /><br />The only thing I seem to have accomplished today was taking Gage the Wonder Dog to get a bath and haircut. It always amazes me that a deaf rescue dog just assumes everyone loves him. He's never met a human he doesn't like. <br /><br />Anyway, I'm really enjoying the dogs even if I haven't commented on all of them.<br />Julie Weathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13725236516593676381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-45277247633768477162016-08-05T22:30:22.863-04:002016-08-05T22:30:22.863-04:00Thanks for letting me know about changes and broke...Thanks for letting me know about changes and broken links on the Blog Readers list.

Can't tell if the look is one of disdain for the whistle that turned her head or the invitation to race. Whatever it is she looks healthily comfortable.<br /><br />Too often you don't see that. You see too many big dogs in small places and small dogs in big places. I once knew a girl who showed up with a Great Dane puppy. She had an old round topped VW bug and lived in a studio apartment. She also didn't spend much time at that apartment.<br /><br />When I asked her about she replied that it was just a puppy. It would be fine. Six months later they were both borderline psychotic.<br /><br /><br />At least that land isn't in Florida.
