:eek: Bowser! :eek:
(and secretly *snicker, snicker* :D )
Listen to Ripley, mind your P's and Q's...
(Yeah, sure you already took care of the pees and were runnin' around in search of the Q's. Riiigghhhhtt. :rolleyes: ;) )
I haven't seen Bowser since May or June 2002; these pictures and stories are SUCH a TREAT! :D
ROFLMBO I am having SOOO much fun - keep checking back for the next chapyter and this one - oh what a hoot. Sorry Phred - I know you had to struggle to see the humor...but you DID manage:D
*Memo to self:
When "blocking" door -
Keep yur LEGS TOGETHER, Stoopid!!
Here we go again!!! I am crying and better run to the bathroom!!!
Ok, I made it!

Keep the stories coming please!! I haven't even picked up my book for two days.
A few Trade Seekritz at work there:Quote:
W:cool:W! ~ 4 Dawgz atta tyme! ~ How'd he DO dat!?
All 4 lined up inna row for a "snappie"!
How'd he DO dat!?
"4 Dawgz atta tyme?"
No sweat!
Course ya din's see any "snappies" of THAT part of our outing,
did ya? :rolleyes:
Parked just outside the fence/gate at the old Corps of Engineers
entrance - now Maintenance Complex.
The PLAN:
Cinder & SmokeMutt hooked to one Y-Thingy with long-rope in one hand;
Cali & Bowser hooked to another Y-Thingy with shorter leash in other hand.
Off to a "rocky" start...
Open rear door of Bus to begin attaching Y-Thingies...
Cinder door-darts and is inside the gate in two seconds
(with NO ropey/leash)! :mad:
Bowser half way out when I grabbed his collar and snapped a Y-Thingy on him;
but he squirms free and takes off - NOT getting back in da Bus!
Holler profanities at Cinder (ignored) and :eek: notice Couple
wiff DAWG returning our way.
Cinder moving THEIR way between pauses to <sniff>.
Open Bus door and attach other end of Bowser's Y-Thingy to Cali;
Slam door. One IN connected to one OUT - Bowser ain't goin anywhere.
Grab rope from pile on ground and take off after Cinder.
Alternate between "Here, Cin" and gross profanities... results poor.
She finally caught my "drift" and slowed down for "capture".
Back to da Bus, Cinder in tow.
Open Bus door & toss Cali out after attaching leash to Bowser/Cali Y-Thingy.
Wrap leash around arm.
Second Y-Thing onto SmokeMut's collar; signal him OUT and STAY!!
(Bein da GUD Chile inna fambly - an noting a bit of "stress" in Dad's voice,
he SITS then figures might be a good time for a DOWN as a show of good faith.)
Other end of Smoke's Y-Thingy onto Cinder; move her ropey to Y-Thingy.
Add choke collars to Cinder & Bowser - to "equalize" things for their team-mate.
Final *check* - everyone Hooked-Up;
close & lock da Bus an we're ready to stroll.
Neglected to consider the "curiosity factor" of the 4-Leggers...
"Who you hooked to? I got him; She's my partner;
Where are you? ... "
:eek:
They manage to circle ME, braid, knot, snag and otherwise make
a Complete MESS of the rigging in 30 seconds.
Other Couple wiff Dawg walk by headed for their car...
"Got yur hands full, huh?"
:o
Boxer *lurches* over to say "Howdie!"
MORE circling & knotting while My Four accomplish the Meet & Greet.
I sat down on the driveway to extricate my feet from da rope MESS.
Anothe 5 minutes of *flippin* dawgs over & under moving ropes to
seperate the "Teams".
Me thinks this is gonna be a "challenge"! :rolleyes:
I dropped the Cinder/Smokey ropey and let them manage on their own.
SmokeMutt is a GEM at "returning" if he thinks he's too far from Dad...
And he CAN drag Cinder back with him!
Cali made a great Dawg Anchor for Bowser -
he had a tuff tyme keepin her movin along
(she's not a Big Fan of long hikes!)
After a quarter mile - the big trick was to "release" Smokey from
a return to "check in" before his Team crossed ropes
with the Slower Team.
As we returned to da Bus I was thinkin we had it down pretty well -
to bad there was NObuddie inna Park to show off our Drill Team skills to!
---------------------------------------
Sunlight fading; we made a quick return to da Ranch to fetch the
CAMERA that "sumbuddie" furgotz to bring along.
Off to the Other BigLake swimmin hole / boat launch to grab the
setting sun which shines on the boat dock from across the lake...
MUCH Better "organized" the Second Tyme Around wiff da Hook-Ups!
NUNbuddie "escaped" AND I managed to NOT get "roped" into either Team!!
So HOW'd he get that "4-Dawg Inna Row" *snappie*?
1) LOTTA *threats* of "Great Bodily Harm to YOU!" iffin ya don't
"SITTTT! & STAAAAAY!" where I PUT ya!
2) Look "close"! ~
Note that Cinder & Smoke have their collar rings
clipped together with ONE snap!
Same with Team Two - Cali & Bowser almost "glued at the neck"!
3) I said SITTTT! and STAAAAAY!! ~~~ DANg IT!! ~ STAAAAY!
Oh yeah... and **SMILE**, too, please!
4) YOU folks are seeing ONE snappie...
(I only had to TAKE about 50-some.) :rolleyes:
The "models" would <HOLD-IT> for about 5 snaps before one or two
would complain "He's NOT bein verrie *friendly* bout diss...
I'z OUTTA here!"
("Fleeing" is difficult when you're rubbin Chins & Shoulders
wiff your Running Mate!)
Poor Bowser was the most difficult... He'd "SIT" till I'd back up
a few feet to take the shot; then <*BOING*> ~
the springs in his butt took over and he was *UP* and
lookin for a way OUT!
After the sun faded; both Teams had another *romp* in the Park!
An DAT's How we Dun It!
/s/ da Bus Driver
.
So Phred, the general gist I get from the story is that it was a BREEZE gettin that pic ..............:D
I feel your pain Phred!! I was watching mom's Taggert and took my 3, plus him to the "Dog Days of September" at the park. They were all very good, but getting 4 dogs, to go the same way, and the same time,and sit for a picture is a hoot!
One trick I have learned, separate the 2 most reliable ( for me, the girls) and let them help "watch" the other two (the boys!!)
Haven't really commented on this thread yet - but I have been following it religiously and I have just one thing to say
PHRED - YOU ROCK!!!
What wonderful pictures of the dogs and I also LOVE the 4 of them lined up.
I'm sorry Phred, I know you had a rough time getting the dogs out of the car and tied to the Y-thingy, but I could not stop laughing while reading your story. Especially the part where the other couple came along and said, "Got your hands full, huh."
I swear you should really think about writing a book about your adventures.:)
Phred, you're my hero!
:D
Omgolly!
what a day!
You didn't tell me that at all when I talked to you last nite!
BOWSER Stay inda doors!
NOOOO DOOR DARTING!
Being mom to a greyhound in the past - I feel the pain!!
Oh my goodness, ROTFLOL! For some reason that put such a funny picture in my head. Too funny. :DQuote:

Well if there is a good thing about the axkadent, it was a *need to pee* one and not a *I'm going to show that beauuutiful Cinder Girl whose the MAN in the house and put my markings everywhere I can* one. Ya gotta make a mistake to know it's a mistake, so in effect, Bowser had his first housebreaking lesson. Me thinks he's a smart boy and he should be learning pretty fast.
This thread is getting fairly long. It may be time to start
Chapter II -

Amy, are you suggesting that MY Taggert is not reliable when walking? That he would "run" and keep on "runnin" if he got a chance. Good girl, I knew I didn't raise no dumbie.Quote:
One trick I have learned, separate the 2 most reliable ( for me, the girls) and let them help "watch" the other two (the boys!!)
Phred and Amy, now come one, tell me what is so hard about walking 4 dogs? I take six to Scooter's dog park and BG dogpark often. So what if I look silly wrapped in dogleashes, inching along afraid I will trip any minute.
Having had the experience of maneauvering 4 or more dogs, I feel for you Phred. I laughed because I could see EXACTLY what was happening. One day last year before they banned my five at the dog park, two got away from me and I got mad and dropped all the leashes and said see if I care, run away! Luckily for me, they all ran for the gate and waited patiently for me to catch up. It was snowy and cold that day so I sure am glad that is where they went because I am not sure I could have caught all of them!
Oh good grief - this time I can't stop laughing at the dawgz antics Phred - I've got tummy ache with laughing - the mental pics., are just too much!!!
Pleased the trip to Doc Mikes was such a success - all things considered.
The pics from the Lake trip are just so good - there was I thinking you'd just plonked the dawgz down and they "stayed"!!! ROFL!!
One little accident can't be held against Bowser can it? Just got a smaller water tank than Cinder and Smoke!! :D :D
Lots of {{{{{{Hugs}}}}} to da bus driver.
Lynne
Oh, My goodness! My sides hurt from all the laughing. I wish I had been on the park trip with a camera. I would love some shots of you tangled in the dog pile!
Aw, Bower has been so good. One little goof up can be overlooked. He may need to go out more often since he is used to going when and where he wants. Maybe he will watch C & M and learn from them. :D

OMGoodness ....... too funny ......
This thread is tooooooo funny! I keep checking back for updates! What a great thread, and definitely a nomination for thread of the year, 2005!
Keep them stories coming!! Please??? ;):D
While your tales do creat a vivid image, Phred, I do wsh we had video footage!! What a 3 ring circus!!
Oh Phred, what can I say. This thread is getting better all the time now. Good boy Bowser....there's nothing like a loving Dad and some good treats. :)
I have a headcold/sore throat ("no voice! no voice!" the parents rejoice ;) ) and have only been up about a total of 4-5 (non-consecutive) hours. What a pleasure to find there's a treat-monster in the making! :cool:
As for the accident :( , guess Rachel said it best... he's gotta make a mistake to know it's a mistake. He seems to be a smart, sensitive guy... hopefully no more puddles from here on out, if for no other reason than to keep his feelings from getting hurt.
A round of :cool:treats:cool: on me, then I'm headed back to bed! Not even bothering with work tomorrow, I don't think.
Nighters to all of Phred's Fluffies ... and Phred, too, of course!
:)
Bowser Boy seems to be "Fittin In" pretty well -
learnig a few of da Howze Rulez and
feeling more comfortable with Cinder & Smokey...
When I <spring> him out of his 'partment in the basement in
the morning, he's quick to bound up the stairs to join da Gang.
He was going straight to the basement/garage door to see if
"escape" was possible.
"Outies" are a bit more organized - his tether cable fits
under the front door so it can remain INside between uses.
LOT easier to hook him up INside without me having to try "blocking"
the open door!
Inner "warmth" seems to be appreciated by BB!
He's MUCH more eager to bound in the open door than he was.
And Cinder seems MUCH less interested in taking UN-approved
"long hikes" during her outies - she kinda "hangs around the house" -
prolly afraid HE'll get sumpin she doesn't!
He's developed an appreciation for TREETS!!
Sinder & Smoke INSIST on a treet when they return from an outie...
Bowser would take one, but instantly <spit> it out as soon as he got it.
TODAY he took and KEPT each one offered!
He's still very "timid" - sticks his nose in to take the treet;
but retreats down the hall to *eat* it.
Still only likes the "Chawklit" ones!
Da KAT has mellowed considerably!!
He'll now walk around the house without needing to dash for safety!
And he no longer moves with constant glances over his shoulder.
He's spent a lot more time on a chair without leaping on the
table every time BB walked into the room.
And *I* haven't heard a single "Hisssss! all day!!
BB even participated in a typical C&S "play session"...
They LOVE to Play Fight & play "Tag" ~
One will walk up to the other and Nose Punch, Bite an Ear, of just Pounce
on, and the Battle Begins - complete with *Grrrrin*, *Snarlin*,
*Woofin* and other LOUD sound effects! :eek:
It started this morning, and I heard a new "voice" in the mix!
I looked and there was Bowser - doing his best to avoid the rasslin
but joining in the "discussion".
He ran a few "laps" of the "Tag Match" (a top-speed RACE around
the center of the room furniture island, with frquent reversals of
direction, and jumping over of each other). Bowser wasn't quite
*fast* enough; and wound up being <run over> a few times...
so he "spectated" from the sidelines towards the end.
And he's no *dummie*!!
He figured out that da Bus Driver goes "hunting" and returns with
FOOD on round disks!
He sneaks out to check the "Hunting Grounds" (kitchen) almost
every time I sit down to "eat my kill" from a "disk". Thank doG
he's too "short" to get more than his nose over the counter edges.
He has the *idea* down pat ~ I *watched* him trying VERY hard to
stretch and reach a paw over the counter edge a while ago!
Right paw, left paw, a lil <jump> for a better look...
Hope the Other Two don't take "lessons" from him!!
And he's now <responding> when I call his name!! :cool:
Used to be when he disappeared, I'd have to go *FIND* him...
Now a gentle *Boooowser" will bring him on the trott to see
"Whut'z Up, Boss?" == **PROGRESS** :D
/s/ da Bus Driver
.
Hope there have been no more damp accidents, Phred! Actually a bowser in England ( where I come from) is what the firemen bring the water in to put out a fire. I think you call it a tanker truck. LOL good name for a squirty doggie!
I think you are a very special angel too by the way! xxx
:cool: :DQuote:

Even though he's a foster kid, he fits in with the firedawg theme perfectly!
I'm so happy Bowser!! He seems to be adjust to a true dog's life so well!! Finally learning to enjoy being a spoiled boy! Yeah!!!
A few more treats from me!!!
"Outies" are a bit more organized - his tether cable fits

Brought back memories of how we used to do things prior to getting *the fence*. Speaking of which, maybe time to fence in a portion of the Ranch.
BB even participated in a typical C&S "play session"...

I think Bowser is getting some valuable socialization skills staying at the ranch.
I *watched* him trying VERY hard to
stretch and reach a paw over the counter edge a while ago!
Right paw, left paw, a lil <jump> for a better look...
Hannah says that if'n there's something on napkin on the table, all you has to do is get your paw on the edge of the napkin. Then
ease that over the edge and the whole sandwich is yours for the eat'n.
It really sounds as if Bowser is pretty happy about his new surroundings and foster family:D
I'm glad to hear he's making such great progress and finally eating some much deserved treats!
:D I just knew that being with you and your crew would be a good thing for Bowser. He's never had much of a family life before, seems like. It takes time to learn the ropes but he seems to be doing great.
I'm so glad he's learned to love his treeties now and even how to 'play'. :D Just wonderful news. :D
.
Dad sed :eek: when he looked at da Thermo Stick!!
Lil "nippie" outside, Dad?
Let's go fur a walkie.
"Are you NUTZ!?? ... But Bowzie needs a "stroll".
Hmmmmmmmm..."
Dad went down ta <spring> Bowser; and kame up wiff him ANNA Y-Thingy.
Klipped it on Bowser and asked SmokeMutt ta "C-mere, pleeze."
?????
<KLIPP> went da udder end of da Y-Thingy ON SmokeMutt.
"Mynd da bushez, treez, an fence posts, Smoke!!
Don't wanna have ta come out an "rescue" you guyz!"
Smoke: Awwww, Dad! Why ME??
"Kuz you're da GUD Child an won't lead him astray!"

Sounds like things are going great and Bowser is really fittin' in well. Even da Kat is relaxin' a bit. :D

Poor "Shorty" Bowser has to take TWICE as many
"steps" as Smokey, just to keep up! :p
And when they try to go in oppsite directions -
the result is Both Spinning like a Pin-Wheel and going NOwhere!

More laughter going on here Phred - it's all these mental images your conjuring up - hysterical!!!!
Good Old Smoke!! Takin' the little 'un for "walkies" - too cute!!
Lynne
What a good boy you are Smoke-Mutt!! Sadie understands the whole puppy sitting detail. She has been forced to goutside or go after more than one other dog!!
This is better than reading a book!!!!
I'm so happy that Bowser is fitting in so nicely and that "Da Kat"
is much more relaxed.
Phred you are one remarkable guy. :D
They sound precious together, Phred!!! :) Thank you for making sure we know what's going on around there!
Good boy, Smokey!!!! You do deserve some extra treats!!! :D
Ok, THAT calls for more photos!Quote:

TRIED that - (photos)...
I bundled up an followed em out this afternoon,
camera in hand...
WHERE'D they GO??
Paw-Printz ALL over the yard.
I went "east"; they'd gone "west"!
After I went ALL the way around the house -
found em!
Sittin on the Veranda, backs to me,
*waitin* for the door to open! :rolleyes:
I tried calling them back out in the yard...
Smoke <mumbled> sumpin like:
NUTZ to that!
"Modeling" izzint in my Dawggie Sittin/Eskort Kontract!
OPEN da Dang Door - It'z KOLD out here!!
After *watchin* the SmokeMutt + Bowser "team" in action a few times;
I'm having second thoughts about "Are they really *DOING* anything
while they're out there!??" :eek: :confused:
As soon as one of them <pauses> ...
his "Harness-Mate" tears past, the ropey tightens,
and whomever was about to "do sumpin" gets jerked off his feet! :p
Prolly gonna make "last call" a routine event -
Smoke on the loose to pick his spot,
and BowserBoy tethered to the Veranda so he can "do it" in peace!
And the Lil Kid seems totally *hooked* on TREETS, now!
Takes a treet to "lure" him DOWN the stairs to his 'partment -
and he WANTS it as soon as we get down there!
Goin UP-stairs - he runs on Auto-Pilot...
remove the stay-in-the-corner-by-your-bed chain,
and LookOUT -
Zip-ZOOOM! he's at the top of the stairs!! :D
/s/ Bowser Boy sez "HOWDIE to All"!!
..
Phred,
You are simply fantastic ......
HUGS to BowserBoy ........... and all the furkiddies ......:D
And
Kisses and HUGS to you ...
The treats must be giving Bowser extra energy Phred!!!!:D :D :D
