I dunno. I see some purple blood around her eye. Which means that you poked her, but it's okay cuz she's an alien masquerading as a dog.

OK - start over. That's her collar coming off over the top of her stubborn little head. :~D

Two seconds after this picture was taken, free of her restraints, she flipped me off and went home. :~D

While your explanation makes more sense, mine would have made a better Steven King movie.

"Greyhound collars," can't recommend them enough. All the benefits of nylon and choke collars, none of their liabilities when properly adjusted.

My old collie loved my Mom and eagerly walked with her on vacation at the cabin in the mountains. That is, until one day when she began dragging her feet. Mom had spent several happy days literally walking the tread off the poor dog's feet, the calloused skin peeling off the pads.

Incidently, my Stephen King fan group travelled to Bangor last summer. The owner of Betts Books loaned us Pet Sematary on VHS to watch in our hotel room. No big deal made over the gruesome bits - we freaks groaned in sympathy at the part where Lewis falls out of bed and raps his noggin against the nightstand, LOL.
