New Blue pic, and assorted dog rambles...

Post by Mary Plummer »

Hello everyone,

Here's Mr. Blue with his new talking toy (It says something like "Here you are, tough guy"):

I went to the pet supply store today, because the Detroit K-9 unit was supposed to visit. Unfortunately, they couldn't make it because they'd been called out on a case. So I brought this home for Mr. Blue. I've done a completely un-scientific survey of all the dog owners I know over the last week, about their dogs shedding more under stress or not. Out of all the people I've talked to (probably about 25 or so), there's 100% agreement that they do.

...treats and/or toys for Mr. Blue! I did a really short and sparse human grocery store shop today, but he's REALLY happy. I just got in from a rousing game of throw the toy, he runs and gets it, and runs madly around the yard while I chase him. I finally turn and run the other way and he chases me, the toy talking non-stop all the while :D It's only then that I can get the toy for another toss, and it starts all over again...

Ours sure shed more when stressed and the ones at the shelter shed a lot too.

If you look at the picture I posted on Saturday, you can see how stressed my dogs are. ....

Mary- love the description of your game with Mr. B - Honey loves those interactive chase, throw, grab, chase games also. looks like a cute toy.

I took her to Petsmart for a bath a couple of weeks ago - 1st time - was well worth the price and she loved seeing the kittens in the store, getting petted by everyone and of course getting a new toy (Froggie)
