28581. wabbit - 4/14/2015 7:52:18 PM Oh Arky, I am so sorry to hear about Mojo, she was such a sweet dog. She knew what she was doing when she chose you, she had the good life with you for those twelve years. 28582. arkymalarky - 4/14/2015 8:20:43 PM Thank you Wabbit! We really enjoyed her company. I looked at her sleeping on her back pictures today. Stan thought about burying her that way, but he didn't. 28583. Ms. No - 4/15/2015 5:03:57 AM Arky, I'm so sorry. I'm glad she wasn't down for long before she passed, but I know how heartbreaking it is to lose them, even so. 28584. arkymalarky - 4/15/2015 2:43:09 PM Thanks, No. We have all had major pet losses here in the Mote, but for this particular dog, Mojo lived as full and happy a life as any pet we have ever had. We just want her to be here for ourselves, but she only had two bad days in the end. I was just laughing at her sleeping style Friday, and two weeks ago she was bounding in front of the chuckwagon on the trail, as enthusiastic as ever. 28585. arkymalarky - 4/15/2015 2:43:29 PM Poor Hobo is having a tough time. 28586. judithathome - 4/15/2015 7:40:34 PM Oh damn...I remember when Mojo came to you guys! Keoni will be sooo upset...remember when he threatened to sneak her into our car and kidnap her?
So, so sorry but glad she didn't suffer for long...as I was reading your posts, I was about to suggest you go to the feed store and talk to them about "steps" you could take at home re: syringes, etc. Our friend with all the feral cats has to resort to "steps" at times and he said an animal owner's best friends are the feed store staff.
Would you be willing to "adopt" another "walk-on" for Hobo? 28587. arkymalarky - 4/15/2015 8:12:58 PM If one wanders up, but with his blend he's hostile to most other dogs. Mojo and Mazie raised him. He's got Mazie and Danny, so I think he'll be okay after he grieves. And he and Stan will bond better now. 28588. arkymalarky - 4/15/2015 8:14:20 PM We would have done something by yesterday, but are thankful we didn't have to. 28589. judithathome - 4/15/2015 9:09:09 PM Well, I'm glad it didn't come to that. Really a tough thing to put a pet down.
It haunts you even though you know it was the right thing to do.... 28590. arkymalarky - 4/15/2015 10:31:01 PM Yes it does. 28591. vonKreedon - 5/1/2015 6:10:48 PM Happy International Worker's Day, Comrades!
28592. judithathome - 5/1/2015 9:31:38 PM Where's the parade??? 28593. alistairconnor - 5/5/2015 6:58:25 PM ... and how's work, von K?
Since you ask... I'm programming these days. Visual Basic. Makes me feel... 25 years younger! 28594. arkymalarky - 5/6/2015 12:01:02 AM How young does this make you feel?
how-old.net 28595. vonKreedon - 5/6/2015 5:38:04 PM Thanks for asking AC, work sucks, as in I've been effectively unemployed for over two years now. I used to get an offer for about every 3 interviews, but not now. I suspect ageism.
Short joke:
Why older men don't get hired.
Interviewer: What would you say is your biggest weakness?
Older man: Honesty.
I: Oh, I don't think that honesty is a weakness.
OM: I don't give a fuck what you think.

Wrong thread. 28599. arkymalarky - 5/9/2015 10:06:26 PM Y'all holding on, Judith? 28600. wabbit - 5/11/2015 12:08:27 AM Happy Mother's Day mote moms!
