Boots, don't you know dogs don't know cat speak , you cats have the advantage of being bilingal . No excuses for being lazy about reading the memos. Just think about it if you have a problem with an other cat you have 3 large back ups.

Toledo Mutt show? :confused: Is this a regular dog show? If so, you better check if dogs that aren't registered can attend. Especially if it's an indoor show. Outdoor shows are a lot harder to inforce the rule.
Candy, this is a fund raiser for our Humane Society, and part of the Great American Mutt Show. It designed specially for the unregistered, mixed breed dogs, and fun games for the purebreds as well....all dogs are welcome!!Quote:

Phred, check out the thread in Meetings for more info!! I'm sure we can grab an extra hand somehwere to help with Boswer...and I bet Cinder would do great in the "mostly" shepherd category!

Hmmm.....this spot looks perfect for a certain 40' motorhowze...is that by chance why you took this particular picture, Phred? ;) :D
Looks like you all had a wunnerful time. I think Bowzie is in doggy heaven. He's got two great playmates/leaders/tow vehicles (since he usually seems to bring up the rear ;) ), he's got a nice warm bed to sleep in, even if it does have a cat jumping up and waking him up now and then, he demands and gets treats, and I'm sure he's getting more lovin' than he's gotten since Grandpa went to the home. He looks happy in the pictures and that is just so wunnerful. :D
Bowser STEALS MY HEART with every picture you post! And your "tales" have me laughing so hard I cry!!! :o
Just wanted to let you know that I've been following along...and am enjoying myself tremendously! :D
Bowser has made so much "progress" already...I can't wait to see what he'll do next!
:DQuote:

I'll have to "check" if Berlin has any size restrictions;
but I'm sure I've seen 40 footers in the Campgrounds.
You can check the Corps site at >>>
Corps of Engineers ~ Berlin Lake
Berlin's "Mill Creek Recreation Area" (the Formal Name of the
"Park" area) is *nice* - clean and usually quiet at night (NO Booze
allowed to be "visible"); big drawback is there isn't really
very much to "DO" in the immediate vicinity. :(
As for Bowsie... He sure "TRIES" to keep up with the Other Two...
but those durn short Legs! :(
Gotta give him credit - he HAS started to catch on about the
ROPE and Y-Thingy - he's become more observant and pays attention to
WHICH side of trees, sign posts and guardrails the Other Two passed on. :)
.
It seems to me that Bowsie has the heart of a lion and the face of an angel!
I imagine he cannot believe his luck...........so he isn't gonna mess with nobody and he's gonna do what Papa Phred wants!
(besides, Papa Phred has the treats):D :D

Dad hollered "ROAD TRIP ~ Let'z *GO*!"
Ebberbuddie did a fast outie an gathured inna hall.

Bowzie sed it wuz **NEET** - but all he really saw wuz sum lil Burdz -

Bowzie sed dey went "shoppin" inna store agin...

Sounds like Bowser had a fun trip!! Must have felt like quite the star getting to go in everywhere and greet everyone! What a good boy!
:D Now don't you go bad mouthin us with short legs! As one who is vertically challenged myself, I can tell you our legs are just fine. As long as they reach the ground, they are long enough! It may take us a little longer to get where we are goin but that gives us more time to enjoy the scenery! ;)Quote:

WOW! Bowzie can shop now! Did he get to pick out his own goodies? I bet he is feeling like a super star from all the attention.
Cinder and Smoke, don't worry, you will always be super stars to us too!
:D
Thanks for clearing that up for me! I wish I lived closer to the area so I could go.Quote:

I just loved this line!

I just love the way you tell a story!!!
:D
Bowser Boy seems Right at Home,Yeah!!!!
I saw those 3 dog Y thingys' that Cincys'Mom was referring to...Great idea,and Reasonable....They come in Different length based on size of the dogs....
Great Idea!!!!
I might have to get one too!!
THANKS for the "tip", Amy & Ralph!! :cool:Quote:
We now have an "assortment" of 2 and 3-Dawg Couplers on the way!
PetEdge.com has some GOOD Prices - but you need to order :eek: $50 Bucks
worth of "stuff" to avoid a "small order" penalty of $7
IN ADDITION to a minumum Shipping Charge of $7.00!
(And YUP! I made it to $50 bucks! :eek: )
Maybe we should organize a Group Buy just before a
Findlay Gathurin to pool the shipping & handling costs. ;
I will be ordering periodically for our Therapy Dog group and can post something each time I do to see if anyone inthe area needs anything. I got a lot of Christmas presents there this year...and although I made the $50, it was reasonable for all the dogs I was buying for!!Quote:

I must be one of the blindest people at Pet Talk to just now realize this thread's existance :o :o :o. I have got to make a habit of checking out other sections of the board more often. In the dog girl/boy thread, I saw Phred list 2 boys and a girl, and I knew then I had missed something! :o.
I've read about half of the posts and realized I must get back to work for now and read the rest later, but I was enthralled and enchanted and misty eyed through the first half. Phred you are a true wonder and inspiration. Those words are pitifully inadequate but the best I can do to describe my feelings!
Thank you for the beautiful read and I plan to finish later. :)
:(

Poor Boots they really do have to get you a new up dated manual. Thinks do go bump in the night a Preads.:D
LOL!!!
Poor Kat! You got to learn to sleep with your eyes open! Leonardo could teach you. You can come live with us if you want. You would have 3 cat brothers and one sister. No big dogs though. (I'm not sure that would be a trade up for you!)
:D
I'm still reading all the posts and lovin' it.:D
I agree with the others that have said you should make a book Phred.:D

Good job Bowser! You and your brother and sister certainly earned your treats :D

Good Boy, Bowz for holding on so long!!!
Keep these "tails" coming -- I love each new update!! :)
:D Way to go Bowzie! I can't even hold it for 7 hours! You deserve an extra treatie, I think!
I bet it was phunny watching Phred stomp around in the corners in his stockin feeties looking fur damp spots. We must teach you all to use a camera!:D
Good Bowser is right. Have to second Connie's statement about not being a 7 hour girl myself. Seems like Bowser should get a gold star for being low key in his dealings with the Kat. We're so proud of you on so many fronts, B. Boy. Have to give kudos to the two tutors Cinder and Smoke. Nothing like having a couple buds to show a guy the ropes.
Hope Dad's tummy is feeling a bit better today.

Oh Bowser!!!!!!
Please Don't run away again!!!!
Not only Dads' Blood Pressure...But ALL your friends on Pet Talk!!!!
Please don't make us worry like that!!!!
I Guess we are back to the Y-Thingy...Eh,Phred???
Sorry to give you grey hair Phred!!!!
Bowser didn't mean to!!!
Cinder & Smoke..*Polishing His Halo*.... will Promise to Look out for the Bowser Boy!!!!
Hugs & Treats!!!
I about fell out of my chair on the "polish your halo" part :p. Bowser boy, stop taking years off your Daddy's life pup. Besides the biscuits you get when you come back are better than anything you'll find out there huntin' :D.
Glad you got him back home safely Phred, must have really given you a fright. :(
Oh Bowser baby.:eek: Don't scare us like that fella.:D
Phred, must be the wierd, foggy wheather we've been having
over the Ohio Valley lately. It must bring out the "hunter" in all
the doggies. Smokey & Maggie both were acting very strange
last night & wouldn't come in after their last outtie last night.
It got to be 11pm & momma was very tired & ready for bed. I
tried every thing imaginable & still they wouldn't come in. Ended
up putting on shoes, heavy coat, grabbing two leashes & chasing
them around the back yard for 30 mins before I managed to
catch first one & then the other & dragged them inside.:rolleyes:
Needless to say, NO PUPS got treats last night.:mad:
At least Bowser did come when he finally heard you calling.l:)
Bowzer don't you remember now you have a nice home and can't go hunting alone any more or you'll lose it. )no we know better than that But he doesn't.) Glad you found him .
It must of been the night because Dixie and Dusty both had problems wanting to come in too! I chalked it up to spring fever since the weather was so mild. I actually didn't want to go in either! :confused: Something was definitely in the air! ;)
Bowzie! Bowzie! Bowzie! What were you thinkin?
Stay out of the woods! There may be BIG DOG MUNCHIN CRITTERS OUT THERE! Besides there are NO treaties in the woods!:eek:
Eep!
Be a good boy, Bowser!
Been there, done that! *Pleeze, pleeze, pleeze, let her be okay.*Quote:

HMMMMMMMMM....
Been a Little Quiet on the Phred Front!!!!
This has been a tough week with the passing of Johnza....
Alot of our attention has been moved....
Phred,Please know How Much we LOVE Bowser,You,Cinder,Smoke and Boots!!!!
Can't wait to hear more!!!!
Phred,Got the Y-Thingy Back in Action???
Is Bowzie still in the "dawg house" for running off?
I hope he has been paroled by now.
I did see how the prayer pups are helping him learn how to contact da big BOSS. That is so sweet of them.;)
