Every now and then we need a belly rub break from the terrorists, politics, human horrors and demonRats of this world. When some of the threads get a bit intense and we find we're starting to take ourselves a tad too seriously, you'll see many of us drifting into comments about our funny little furry companions. It doesn't take much, just a reference to the Hildebeast or one of sKerry's daughters can set off the canine crazies amongst us.
Several of us have been discussing the idea of starting a thread of our own where we can muzzle the issues for a few minutes, let our hackles down, and run and jump to wherever our noses lead us. Hopefully, we'll all end up rolling in the stink pile together, laughing like a hyena gone mad.
Now, here's the bite...None of us initially involved with this idea have an ounce of HTML or artsy fartsy posting talent. We need some of you dog loving FR artistes to come to our aid. You scratch behind our ears and we'll rub your butts for you! Please let us know how you're able to help us get such a wonderful idea out of the dog run and we'll start this pack running free.
Come on y'all, let's find a place where we can bay at the moon until we wake the whole darned neighborhood. I especially wanna yowl all the trolls right off the block!
I don't think anyone on our Saddle Club thread would mind doggy talk:) We all have dogs too that we talk about. We're not picky about staying on topic:) In case the powers that be don't want too many of these animal threads.

THANKS! I saw your thread and it's fantastic.
Very welcoming and it looks like fun. I guess I should have checked with Big Bro' Mod (said with a great deal of affection!!) B/4 I posted this to see if this was an acceptable idea. Never occurred to me. Do you think they'll take a rolled newspaper to me?
You're breakin' a record here! I love ALL of them...
Pajama Puppies
Kibble and megabits
News Hounds
Flyer, I've been told you're our artsy fartsy one...notice I didn't say fairy!?! Got any ideas for art?
We've been invited to use the Saddle Club thread if the mods get on to us. SEE Post 41.
Tonight I'll start a list of all the suggested names and post it. We can all submit our hanging chads from that and come up with a name, if we find someone who can count. Anybody here from Florida?
LOL...I have no clue, I understand nothing about bandwidth etc. I don't know if another thread would take more then just getting more posters on the Saddle Thread.???
I've been surprised that no one has asked what the political value of a saddle thread is:)...I've seen that asked on alot of threads in the General Forum. So who knows.
Becky
Mmmm. . . maybe.
But I just really don't have time right now for any creative stuff. . . . but if inspiration hits me I will let you know!
But we do intend to seriously discuss the issues of the day on these threads....pant, pant,...don't we?
Besides, why is a thread captioning pictures of a limp-wristed sKerry any more valuable than one about our animals and how they influence our politics?
lol!
Well, how about something with "Skinny Dippin'"....
(How to tie in 'skinny' with dipping a dog....)
I'd love to feel skinny again.
:-)
I'll keep doggin' him about this.
He'll never convince us we're barking up the wrong tree.

I like Pajama Puppies. It kind of still ties us to FR, without actually saying it... but freepers will understand!
I like that too:)

The Red Dog Saloon... Had to crawl out of the one in OKC one time, the only time. WOW, that was close the bullets were flying and I don't know why didn't stay around to find out.
Well, you got it half right ..........
I agree.
What does everyone think about Pajama Puppies?
Let me know if we have a winner here.
This is the spitting image of my old dog Molly (I took my FReeper name from her.) I really miss her, sigh.
OK, y'all, I did a search and I think I know how to do a Ping List.
Anyone who wants on the Pajama Puppies (unless otherwise decided by the group) Ping List please FReepmail me.
I've got to go roust hubby out of the dog house and feed him.
I'll be back later.
