You have a dog? What kind and what name?
Thank you Darlin .. yep she is growing like a weed
You should see her when she is outside playing with her sisters .. she thinks she is as old as they are and can do what they do
Let's just say there are a lot of tears because mommy is mean and won't let her run as she pleases *L*
Yep .. I have a sheltie and her name is Kelli
Well you can always make your own .. get a piece of wire and hook it up to a battery
Or you can do it Swervies way and shoot the dang thing .. *L*
LOL. Oh, yes, indeedy, you're gonna have your hands full for the longest time. I have 3 sisters and we wagged our poor, little, baby sister around with us everywhere in the summer. Its truly a miracle that she survived and is a reasonably sane woman today. LOL
Is your sheltie hyper or laid back? I am thinking of getting a dog again, after many years with just a cat.
What I need is a nice toy or miniature hound dog...blue tick or red bone. You know, the ones that you see just barely moving. I know there is not such a toy dog, though. LOL
I never have before, but I am getting a little nervous when home alone overnight, even though I do have my arms. I need a good natured watch dog.
LOL! Well, I don't want to shoot them. I like them, I just want them to be happy with what I give them and leave the bird food alone.
Believe me, there ain't no way to outsmart a determined squirrel except with these spring loaded ones.
Believe me, I spent four years trying many homemade contraptions...and even fox pee, once. Now that is a story in itself. LOL
Shelties are really good dogs .. are very easy to train and are very loyal to their owners .. but yes they do like to run outside and boy can they run really fast. *L*
Kelli is VERY protective of the kids and watches over them like a hawk
Shelties also are not found of strangers ... Kelli doesn't attack anyone .. but she will warn you to back off *L*
HA! .. won't happen .. they will eat anything they can
Once I use to leave the dog food on the porch in a tin .. they opened the screen porch door came in and ate the dog food
*L* between her and Dana .. I'm not sure who will survive
Those two just go at it all the time
Wonder what my dad does. He and my stepmom have probably a couple of dozen birdfeeders in the yard and the squirrels don't seem to bother them. They do try to get in one of the birdhouses. Thay also keep a five gallon bucket in the garage full of peanuts. Maybe that helps.
Let them eat cake.
LOL!!! .. now there is an idea
Hey Libby .. I can bake a cake for your squirrels
PETA will be paying you a visit.
Hey i can bake them a cake too *L*
Good thinking! Heck, bake a whole bunch of those cakes and we might take care of a lot of "problem areas."
