It says so much for the nature of dogs to know Pickett was mistreated the way he was but still had so much love and devotion to give when you rescued him. So much fun to get to know the dogs in your life.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-39107014548708561702009-07-30T20:04:55.917-04:002009-07-30T20:04:55.917-04:00Erin, it was really funny.

He used every square inch of that ottoman without falling off.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-44166874192637765502009-07-30T19:38:42.446-04:002009-07-30T19:38:42.446-04:00Fiona, too bad you live so far...Marley needs a go...Fiona, too bad you live so far...Marley needs a good lookin' Aussie boyfriend! Granny, the westerns thing made me laugh since one night I was watching a rerun of "The Thorn Birds" and Bailey the Cattle Dog kept lunging at the TV when the horses came on. We joked that my husband was going to have to make a plexiglass screen in front of the TV to protect it!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-5784668430173657792009-07-30T17:58:46.327-04:002009-07-30T17:58:46.327-04:00I love this post!

My Aussie was sitting at my feet as I watched the videos and you should have seen his ears peak up when he heard the barking! Seeing your two together has brought me one step closer to getting another one. We've had Henry since he was six weeks old and he mothers everyone! Thanks goodness we have tolerant house cats (the barn cats, not so much!)fiona@fionacampbell.cahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455351263890165906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-55971050158145935332009-07-30T17:46:58.247-04:002009-07-30T17:46:58.247-04:00LOL at the TV watching dogs!

He'd jump up and bark at the screen every time a horse rode by.<br /><br />We're dog sitting our son's Pomeranian, and he thinks he's part of the family. He's teaching our dogs to eat real dog food (they do it so he doesn't get it all). It's sure easier then the stuff I make for them! He's sitting under my computer chair right now, with his stuffed, blue wienie dog. I could grow to love him ;-)Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-26806810040365367792009-07-30T16:50:25.077-04:002009-07-30T16:50:25.077-04:00sb158!

I can't wait to return and read some of your posts after the kids go to bed and I have some time on my hands :)<br /><br />Kelly, that's funny about the bathtub! When I first found that water trail all over the house last night, I yelled at the kids - then after they insisted it was the puppy for the umpteenth time I decided to have a look in the bucket and sure enough, puppy toys...I laughed! My kids said "why do you get mad if we do it but when Sprocket does it it's funny?" They got me there.....!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-69804240303700024882009-07-30T16:25:59.877-04:002009-07-30T16:25:59.877-04:00OK, more tears. I hate when dogs leave us. Furth...OK, more tears. I hate when dogs leave us. Further more, the abuse that these animals receive at the hands of humans makes me sick. (See where my puppy-from-the-breeder-guilt cames from?)<br /><br />Thanks for all the doggy photos, stories, and movies!! Those dogs of yours have character. And the TV watching fella was a hoot!<br /><br />As I said in my doggie post, my pup loves the water too. While I was in the bedroom reading this one of the kids let her upstairs (a no-no with all of those kid toys/choking hazards up there)....know where I found her? In the bathtub rolling around on the soggy wash cloth and bath toys from this morning, lol.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06457953816169352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-52636141806062372442009-07-30T16:23:24.305-04:002009-07-30T16:23:24.305-04:00Aw, obviously a person after my own heart.

We were blessed with his love for 15 years. Broke my heart when he passed. <br /><br />Now we have a little Pek-a-Poo we got from the local animal shelter, and she's a close second to Reggie. Might even be a tie...sb158http://www.squirtbug.com/Garden/wordpress/noreply@blogger.com
