    BEST MOVIES EVER. We get compliments on his name at the dog park almost every single time we go.

    ETA: If you are super-fans of the movie, you will understand when I tell you that his toy that pisses him off the most is named 'Biff'
  • I have mixed feelings about it.

    yeah, they're funny :)

    I love this dog!

    We've been really lucky with our dogs, they think pills are treats.

    I had to go home early yesterday, I had a migraine so bad I thought I was going to get physically ill, good thing I keep a doggie poo bag in the truck!

    CW leaves for vacation this week, so it's a mini vacation for me ;)

    Atticus went to the vet last night, he's 68.1 lbs now and 9 1/2 months old. He's such a baby. The Invisible Fence people were in for his first training yesterday, he hid behind me when I got home, bad daddy!

    Yes, not high voltage. Just trains them to listen for the beep when they get to close to the wires in the ground.

    Where we live we cant put in a fence and he needs to run. Plus it works in the house as well. So it keeps him out of the laundry area where the cat stuff is.

    That's clever, do you have to train them when they're young? We are moving to an HOA, and we have to either have wrought iron fencing, and I'm worried our Jack will get out. So that might be a good alternative. :)

  • Hi!

    I worked late last night, and went directly to bed when I got home. We're having hamburger helper tonight and we'll finish up wrapping presents and cleaning the trailer. I just can't relax in a messy house.

    Does the fence work for all dogs? A friend has a Westie I think, and couldn't use an electric fence because he figured out that if he ran fast enough through it, it wouldn't hurt very long. It's really cool you can use it inside.

    What's everyone reading these days? I'll probably finish my current book this afternoon, and don't want to start the break without one.

    No, honestly I think it can work at any age. It's just training them to know if they hear that beep not to go any further. Yesterday they started with a chair the cat sits on. He'll get close to it, but not "too" close.

    They give 5 lessons, starting inside, then out.

    This is what my husband was worried about, because Dobs have such a high pain threshold. But they have made a lot of changes to the way they work. I dont know the specifics I wasnt there when they talked about it. But it convined husband.

  • Morning!
    Swag and Kd your dogs are so cute!

    I did my Christmas treat plates last night - Swag, I used your recipe, it turned out amazing. I also did the recipe for buckeyes that's floating around Pinterest. And, choc. covered pretzels. Lots of chocolate. I started the turtle cookies (I forget who suggested them), but didn't get a chance to finish them, so the dough is in the fridge.
    Here's the plates, before getting wrapped up.



    Tonight we're having dijon burgers for dinner.

    This week is the slowest week ev-er. Probably because I'm off all week next week. I'm going shopping for FI tomorrow on my way home and need to get stuff wrapped.

  • Tiffany - I'm glad you loved them! They are my CRACK. I just finished our batch last night so ummm it's far enough away from Christmas to make a new batch. Totally.
  • Thanks, Bunni!

    Britt - those are the most funny auto corrects I've seen yet. I was cracking up.

    I thought this was only ok. I've never read her blog before, so I guess I wasn't used to her style of writing, but she is EXTREMELY ADD. Reading her book was really funny, but it also kind of stressed me out. I think the point is to be random and funny, but I can't switch storylines so many times without getting the spins.

    That is really good to know. My FSIL got it for me and has been on me to read it. I haven't really started it yet. But she said it was funny.

    Thats okay- I googled it and that was the first one to come up- it's really interesting, We will def be looking into it, I just worry about out Jack- she's a stubborn thing. Riff is a catahula mix, very smart and trains easy so I'm not quite as worried about him.

    I also gave it a little more benefit of the doubt because she grows up in a small town in TX, and I did, too.
