But at least the dogs aren't very demanding. Clockwise from lower left - Cinder, Image, Slick, Eclipse, and Emmett. http://www.employees.org/~shore/dogsondeck.jpg -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |

I might have to visit your dogs for a husky fix if you're around. I'm only around for part of the weekend, but we can definitely arrange something. If you're up for a Great Big Adventure you can go out to the boarding kennel with me to pick up the dogs. There's nothing quite like it (which is probably a good thing). -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |

Clockwise from lower left - Cinder, Image, Slick, Eclipse, and Emmett. http://www.employees.org/~shore/dogsondeck.jpg Lazy lot! What you need is a crazy young 'un. Wanna borrow Satchmo for a couple of days? We went to a friend's place yesterday to help her with her garden. She's a wonderful person who is having a hard time keeping up because of her back surgery. While the humans weeded, Satchmo did laps around her fenced in acre, played with her dogs until they didn't want any part of him anymore, dug up the water in the kiddie pool, fell into her in-ground pool when he didn't realize that water lay under the green surface, helped dig the hole for their drain pipe to go in, tried to go fishing for Koi,.... It only took about 3 hours of that, but he walked beautifully on a leash for the first time (typical MO on a Halti, is to jump up in the air and spin, whine, rub face on ground, grass, brush, sproing like a buck, etc.) for our evening walk.

They all do, in their way, but Eclipse is the one who walks right next to me all the time. The other dogs tend to figure out where I'm going in the house and then dash ahead to meet me. So, for example, I'll find a cluster of dogs waiting for me at the top of the stairs, but Eclipse will be by my side. When I first met Eclipse I didn't like her that much because she was awfully clingy for a Siberian and she stared at me non-stop (in a non-threatening way), and I've found that other people don't like her, either. She's kind of over-the-top about everything (work, play, eating, staring, .... ) and even when she's sitting still she gives the impression that she's about to spontaneously combust from trying to control her energy, but she grew on me very quickly (almost immediately, in fact) and once you understand who she is and accept it she's an incredibly great dog. -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |

Roxy concurs with your lot. It was too hot for me to go running at lunch today, so I threw the tennis ball for her. After the 4th throw, she looked at me like I was crazy, went to the door and waited to be let in. -- Lynne |

"ceb" wrote in message: He sounds like a pup who knows how to have a good time! You can say that again. The good thing is that he does come with lower gears, if not an off switch. When he is not being actively entertained by dogs or humans, he'll go find something (appropriate) to do. It was nice to see him go all ballistic when his mom came to pick him up. He's ordinarily not a demonstrative dog, but you should've seen him with his ears slicked back, tail going in circles, running up and down stairs whine-howling, trying to grab the other dogs' legs as he ran by. Crazy dog. It was fun having him around. Suja |
