anastasia: these arent neighbours :( they are from the caravan park down the road, all strangers...he barks at them all....every day there are different people....I live in a horse training area, where most my neighbours train horses...neighbours are OK...he dont bark, but when the owners of the horses come he goes beserk...too many strangers coming on our footpath is what gets him going....he will sit on command, always has, he shakes hands, (both hands...paws) singularly and both together when he sits up...he is obedient, he just hates strangers

My Bear will NOT go anywhere near any sort of water unless I bathe him...he hates it.

Now what do you people think of this...
I have sent away for a collar that emits a noise when he barks...it will not be on all day, but in the afternoon when people are walking their dogs he goes ape----, and it is annoying and embarrassing...so got the collar to put on in the afternoon...is this cruel? I wouldnt hurt him for quids, he is my one and only son LOL....and my cat loves him as well HAHAHA

anastasia: just last week my cat was trying to get out to go toilet...the fly screens (not security) were closed and he lunged at the window...now he didnt go through the screen but he shredded the curtains....I had to renew the curtains in the computer room (spare room)....no harm done

but I remember 4 years ago when Vern was alive we had to go out....I always lock the dog in the house, but used to leave the window open for the cat to come and go.......we went out leaving the gates open, and when we come home....who came to greet us with tail wagging....Bear the dog....he had climbed on the bed and jumped out through the window...they are resourceful when they want to be LOLOL

talking of moth balls....who knew that napthalene was a carcinogen(sp)...as are moth balls....my god Ive used them for years.....

an alternative???

This recipe will fill about a dozen sachets. You can buy herbs in bulk at almost any health food store:

2 ounces each dried rosemary and mint
1 ounce each dried thyme and American ginseng
8 ounces whole cloves

Mix herbs and place some in the center of a bandanna or handkerchief (or in a muslin tea-bag, available at health food stores). Tie with a ribbon.

well today I went fishing with 3 other friends....just for something different to do....not an usual occurence...HEHEHE

fish caught...10
fish caught that were edible.....nil
(the entire catch wouldnt have made a single fish cake LOLOL.._)
all were thrown back except 2 for my cat...........

he was given fresh fish (whole) tonight....looked and walked away in disgust LOLOL.....
the fish was cut into 4 pieces and was consumed with great gusto.....this was the first time in the cats life he had had fresh caught fish and he didnt know what to do with it.....it was so funny watching him contemplate the "horror" of attacking these little morsels that I had caught and brought home for him....I might add that the sun burn isnt as sore as his bottom would have been if he hadnt of eaten the catch hahahahahaha

I find that for my dog it is cheaper to give him human meat.....I buy him y-bone steaks (with bone in) and buy in bulk when they are at their cheapest...dog food is too expensive. I also buy him chicken necks and he has a fish/meat/cheese dry food that I get him.

My cat eats a small tin of cat food twice a day along with dried food. About a month ago, the cat food was reduced from 89c per small tin down to 48c per tin....I went beserk LOL and spent $170 dollars on tinned cat food hahahah...well at nearly $2 per day when it is normal price (for the 2 tins) this will still only last him approx 3 months ....

A trail of blood led police to two suspects who allegedly beat a family dog and dragged the animal behind a vehicle in Didsbury. The dog's injuries were so severe, a veterinarian called to the scene had to euthanize the animal on the spot.
"This was definitely, in my 10 years of policing, the most horrendous act I've seen against an animal," said Cpl. Kevin Fischer of the RCMP in Didsbury, 90 kilometers north of Calgary. A couple found the female collie-Lab cross lying in The street near Ross Ford Elementary School in the northwest corner of town early Sunday. Their frantic phone call woke Dr. Andy Mencarelli, a veterinarian at the Krebs clinic in Didsbury, who went to the scene. The dog's legs were bound
together with duct tape and there was a tow rope around its neck. Its head was wrapped in a bag. "There was blood everywhere," said Mencarelli. The dog was able to lift its head, but in too much shock to make any sound, he said.
When Mencarelli lifted the dog to the back of his truck to euthanize it, the true extent of the animal's injuries became apparent. "This dog was just broken," he said, adding its neck, pelvis, back and skull were fractured. Investigators believe the six- or seven-year-old dog endured a beating
prior to being tied up and hitched to a vehicle. "Indications are the dog was dragged behind a vehicle," Fischer said. The
dog had no tags, tattoos or obvious identification, but police officers followed a trail of blood to a local home.
Police have laid charges against two teenagers, but Fischer said Wednesday they are no closer to learning a motive for the crime. "There is nothing, at this point," he said.
Daniel Charles Haskett, 19, of Didsbury has been charged under the Criminal Code with injuring/endangering an animal and causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. He is also charged with obstructing police. A 17-year-old male, whose identity is protected by the Youth Criminal Justice Act, is charged with injuring/endangering an animal and causing
unnecessary suffering to an animal. For adult offenders, each of the animal cruelty charges has a maximum penalty of a $2,000 fine or six months in jail -- or both. The case is also being investigated by the Alberta Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. A conviction under the province's Animal Protection Act can carry a maximum penalty of a $20,000 fine and a lifetime ban from Owning animals, but an official said no further charges are being contemplated. "We have been notified of it and are having some follow up involvement," said Morris Airey, the Alberta SPCA's director of enforcement. The two suspects are scheduled to appear in Didsbury provincial court on Nov. 6 I would like to start a petition to show politicians' and mayor
etc.. In Calgary ,that others have heard this story and would like to see something done to these two offenders,more than just a fine or 6 months in jail.The two boys should tolerated.Lets speak for those who can't speak for themselves,and lets speak for this poor dog who was absolutely defenseless
