For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse.

If that can be arranged, she has a ride the whole way. Ibbob is driving her up there, but can't keep her during the work week because of his work schedule. |

You know...nothing ever takes the place of the ones we lose. But there is something magical about a new pup. It's like they have a way of lifting our hearts so that the loss of our last beloved one is a little...lighter somehow. I hope Mavis does that for you and your wife, @dphill . |

When she appeared to be sleeping, she was looking for threats on other dimensions. I'm only kinda kidding. She's on a 20' chain, she isn't a flight risk but she is a squirrel risk All the dogs regardless of their status have always been on a chain out front of the house Yes we get about 100 or so trick or treaters here. I enjoy it...I was a kid once, many many years ago

I enjoy it...I was a kid once, many many years ago Oh that's so cool that you get so many kids for Halloween. I loved Halloween. It still is one of my favorite times. I laughed out loud at "she is a squirrel risk." You are a good dad, watching out for the squirrels while loving the dog too. Is she still "Mavis?" Or have you shortened it to "May"? |

I enjoy it...I was a kid once, many many years ago Awesome.. this time of year is one of my dogs favorites. He's out on a 30 ft lead and uses the leaf piles as natural camo. The squirrels are busy burying for winter and not very attentive... prime stalking for my old guy. He doesn't kill them anymore at age 12 but is visibly pleased with himself when he gives them heart attacks by getting within a foot or two before they notice. Duke |
