double bolyrf with lockboxes I used in my real

practice.

Translation?


A lockbox is used for a key when a house is being listed for sale. It
attaches to the doorknob via a combination lock. I removed the lock and
just use the box and latch. Very handy.


I know what a lock box is, I just couldn't figure out what bolyrf is!


Oh, beg pardon. I meant in using two he was double bolted in.

Bodie is "just a dog" the son of a stray I picked up a few years back

when
she was pregnant. He was born and raised here.


Additional insight or suggestions are gratefully appreciated. He's

really a
very good boy and we love him dearly. If he still had his cojones, I'd
swear it was puberty.


I'm a big believer in working and exercising dogs (i.e. a tired dog is a
good dog). Obedience work ALWAYS pays off. I'd either start or go back
and beef it up a lot.


We walk a brisk three miles every morning, rain or shine. unless there are
summer thunderstorms, or ice/salt on the road in which case we take to the
fields.

I use a stirrup leather wrapped around my waist and then leash the pack to
that. If you take Bark magazine, it's not unlike Joring, midwesterner
style, though at my age I decline to risk my life by donning skates or skis.

I also have fenced off a half acre of woods and lawn where right now they
are raising hell at the neighbor who is cutting along the tree line in the
back of my property. If he brother were visiting, two would be using the
pool cover as a trampoline or destroying of of their stuffed toys. Sans
exercise, they are not.

But you are quite correct that I have to go back to square one. Something,
somehow, somewhere along the way he's gotten the wrong idea. So I'm
treating him as if he were a puppy again.

Thank you so much for writing and sharing your thoughts.

Kind regards,
