What a woman you are Sue!! Now, as for Killi getting mud everywhere...imagine this...20 dogs X 4 paws = 80 muddy paws and a backyard that has only about 1/4 of its grass and all the snow melted in one day and rained at the same time.

Now imagine this...I'm sitting in my computer chair typing and 62 pound Max has crawled up in the chair behind me and is currently resting his butt on the back of my neck with is front paws on the arms of the chair!! lol
