15706. thoughtful - 7/6/2005 5:07:52 PM What a cute dog! Welcome Butch! If he takes over the house, will that be a Butch Putsch? 15707. arkymalarky - 7/6/2005 5:56:53 PM What an adorable dog! His coat is beautiful. I bet you'll both have a lot of fun with him. 15708. Magoseph - 7/6/2005 6:14:41 PM I think he's going to be my Putsch, toughtful--he slept on my bed last night--I guess I have to give up my bedding for some more suited to him now.
Arky, he's a doll--so smart, he already figured out who's going to be the softie around here. We both are thrilled with him. 15709. judithathome - 7/6/2005 6:19:03 PM He's beautiful, Mags...and that mix bodes well for being very smart. 15710. PelleNilsson - 7/6/2005 7:01:12 PM Slept on your bed! Macnas will have a heart attack. 15711. arkymalarky - 7/6/2005 7:38:04 PM Hahaha! Bob would too. But Mazie sleeps right by the bed. There's nothing quite like a dog for snoozling.
I am so happy for you and Flexy, Mags. Judith is right about smarts with that mix, and it's great he's already showing that. He should be the right amount of playful, also, without chewing stuff up, especially since he's not a pup. 15712. Ms. No - 7/6/2005 8:28:13 PM Congratulations, Mago! What a handsome fellow! How old is he?
I used to let Billie sleep on the bed but she's a bed hog --- right in the middle with all 55 lbs of her bad self. Now she sleeps on her own bed on the floor unless I'm sick in which case she snuggles up on the bed so I feel less miserable.
And then there was that time a few months ago when I had a horrible nightmare and she got to sleep on the bed then too. ;-> 15713. arkymalarky - 7/6/2005 8:30:59 PM Haha! When Mose was still in her crib, Bob worked nights. I woke up a lot with nightmares, and I used to go get her in case she was scared or anything. 15714. Max Macks - 7/6/2005 9:22:40 PM Hey Mago Hi.
Now I am in YOUR territory , Haven't seen you in
WERDZ lately.
I just peeked into the Mote because I know wabbit
has info on the Tour de France.
15715. Ms. No - 7/6/2005 9:42:01 PM Arx,
That's hysterical. I swear, I'm too old for nightmares about monsters. Mortgage forclosures, company layoffs, deaths of loved ones, sure, but Zombies??? jeez. What am I? 12? 15716. Magoseph - 7/6/2005 10:16:27 PM I cannot believe I misspelled your name, thoughtful--forgive me, please.
Ms. No, he is five years old. I heard him growl for the first time today when a package was delivered. “Excuse me”, I said, I’ll be right out to sign”. It’s a great feeling to be able to control the traffic here, I tell you.
15717. Magoseph - 7/6/2005 10:23:43 PM Pelle, I hope Mac will understand--another thing that might be of interest is the fact that Flexy has to sleep in a dust-free environment and now I'll have to be the visitor to his room. Tomorrow, I'm ordering new bedding and relegating my satin pillow, sheets and comforter to the guest room. 15718. Magoseph - 7/6/2005 10:24:58 PM Judith--he seems to be pretty clever so far and certainly very loving. 15719. thoughtful - 7/6/2005 10:26:38 PM toughtful? it has a ring to it...reminds me of when i'm combing the cat when he's shedding...he's tuftful too! 15720. wonkers2 - 7/7/2005 12:08:16 AM Mags, at least you didn't call her toughtless! 15721. concerned - 7/7/2005 7:52:09 AM How about 'toughless'? 15722. alistairconnor - 7/7/2005 8:44:19 AM Or Tortless ?? i.e. free of sin. 15723. alistairconnor - 7/7/2005 8:46:11 AM I wonder if I'm ready for a dog yet. I sort of feel it would be a heavy responsibility. Which is not a good sign for engaging in long-term relationships in general.
But I find the idea appealing. According to a quiz from a couple of months ago, I should have a Dogue de Bordeaux. 15724. Magoseph - 7/7/2005 2:09:39 PM Butch and I had our first walk at 3am and it took all my strength to keep him apace with me. Most people have dogs around here and they all greeted Butch loudly from their owners’ houses. I will have to take him out not so early in the day—otherwise, every household that has a dog will sic the association on me, and I may be fined if I wake up people at such an ungodly hour. After this experience, I am keeping this dog on site from now on--there's plenty of space on this property. I was so scared this morning that he would get away from me. 15725. concerned - 7/7/2005 3:12:17 PM Re. 15723 -
I keep reading that dogs generally aren't really happy unless their master bosses them around a little. Since that really isn't my style, I've gone with cats so far.
