    We never did fix the non-greyhound issue. That was just him. I can’t believe that he was only with us 6 1/2 years. Made such a big impact and was the calming force for our pack. He was also the protector pup. Nothing would get between him and his girls.

    He’s a big, quiet, gentle boy. 80# of pup. He just laid there when Peanut threw a blanket on his head and than laid down on him. He didn’t whoof when Mindy stepped on a paw while he was sleeping. Perhaps the girls may learn something from him. I expect we will be soon seeing the cat sleeping with him.

    He is scared of the dark. He did not want to walk by himself this evening once he got out of sight of the house. We wanted to see how he would walk without the girls. Now we know – it will take some work and time. We know that he needs work with other dogs (non-greyhounds) outside, but that’s OK, that’s why we leash-walk and have muzzles. It is our job to keep him out of trouble.

    So, welcome home Ranger. Two (Mindy and Peanut) becomes three (Mindy, Peanut, and Ranger). Welcome home.

    And I had to turn the A/C back on. Not cooling off fast enough outside and humidity is up. It will be a short run because tomorrow the temps are supposed to drop all day.

    I am going to share this again, @[692691828:2048:Dennis McKeon] wrote this back in 2015, unfortunately there is more truth now…… and before anyone says 10,000 dogs or quotes that number, cut it in about 1/2.

    I swear that if some idiot sends me one more email about an ebook not working without telling me the name of the book, and if it is a student or instructor I am going to find the hard covered book and shove it…. oh, never mind.

    Dear Dogs:
    When I say to move, it means go someplace else, not switch positions with each other so there are still two dogs in the way.
    The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
    The stairway was not designed by Nascar and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn’t help, because I fall faster than you can run.
    I cannot buy anything bigger than a king size bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue to sleep on the couch to ensure your comfort. Look at videos of dogs sleeping, they can actually curl up in a ball. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space used is nothing but doggy sarcasm.
    My compact discs are not miniature Frisbees.
    For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through the same door I entered. In addition, I have been using bathrooms for years, canine attendance is not mandatory.
    The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dogs butt. I cannot stress this enough. It would be such a simple change for you.
    To which I (“comment from Janet Tate Crum”) would add: all 3 of you will not fit through the dog door simultaneously. Attempting that maneuver does not result in you fending off the ferocious raccoon/squirrel/renegade leaf any faster. It just results in blood and yelping.
