What I think got her started on the road to housebreaking was me
leashing her to myself for the weekend...

Ted,
Great! I am glad Ruby is getting there. I used to snicker at that
method myself (leashing a dog to me) but I have used the method in
recent years and it has saved my stuff from getting chewed up and helped
with housetraining. Of course a crate is invaluable while teaching a
dog either of the above.

Ruby is a pretty name.

What kind of motorcycle do you ride?


I have a grand total of 3 bikes in the garage, a 1980 Honda CB750K, a 1981
CB 750 C,
and a '82 CB750F. The F is a project bike and the C is a former project
bike that I
finished, and tried selling this summer. (unfortunately, I asked too much
initially and by
the time I had the price dialed in, the summer was almost over) The only
thing that is
really in common with all 3 is the engine.

The CB750 post 1979 series are the predecessors to the 750 Nighthawk,
basically
the same engine. The CB series parts are cheap, consumables are cheap, the
bikes
themselves are cheap, and they are workhorse commuters which is what I
mainly
do with it. I really don't need a bike that goes faster than 110Mph top
speed on the
straightaway.
