Lily's breeder told me her dogs all use cat litter, but that has zero appeal to me on the floor of our MH. What could be better than a square piece of paper that gets folded and tossed. I have all of Sena's mess to sweep up, but it's mostly half eaten almonds and cashews, not pee soaked paper or worse.

BTW, I've found the pee pads I buy at Costco are the best. Extra large and very absorbent. Cheap, too! $16/100 I try to buy all our diapers and pee pads in OR or MT where there is no sales tax. It helps pay fuel costs for all this travel. But I know Costco is almost a cuss word in Arkansas.

Diane, that new baby looks like she's fixin' to tell you something. Does she intend to be The Boss I wonder, or is she requesting removal of her (really cute) clown's ruff?

I know ownership involves work and patience, but the paybacks are so immediate and bountiful. Maybe next spring....

Cheers!

Heh Heh... Bob started calling all those dogs people have in their campers "little white camper dogs"... many, many of them are white/off white and little. Are you going to be joining the "little white camper dog" ranks?

You can now do DNA tests on dogs from the privacy of home to find out what breeds comprise your dog's genetic make up. Here's even one that is discounted because of the damaged box.

Hey Marty,

I've heard that shelters have an over abundance of big black dogs, aka the substance of Sena's nightmares. Mainly because many people are also frightened by big black dogs.

Do I have a volunteer??? Noooooo, my princely pauper is too busy mutating with his new friends to bring order to my establishment. He's forcing me to resort to blackmail. Oh, Herb? Do you want to hear the latest curb appeal tale?

The cake is for bribery at the dentist's office."

Now I'm offended. Without question or asking I cleaned the kitchen after her mess, and she does make a mess when she cooks, and she sent me this to post AFTER I did all that.

DW, you just wait! ya'ear!

p.s., then I went in after she made the topping, messing up the kitchen again and cleaned up. What's a man s'posed to do. She'll be sorry.
LOL... sounds like my kitchen at home!

Sorry Duckman, the tornado pic is photoshopped.

I'm a sucker for science and went looking for info. I SO wanted it to be real.

We are too alike..... I gad read about the litter, but never got excited about it. Guess it relates to having an inside cat for years. I have 2 large boxes of pads from Sams..... Wish we had costco, competition would do WM good..... I am more if a Target gal....
But i do make a once a month sams trip.... They have the cheese from Tilamook....


Diane is retired and lazy........ So please excuse the fat lazy finger slides.....

An inch of rain in the last hour or so, now mixed with 1/4" hail. The wind has just picked up and is blowing to who-laid-it, pushing deck chairs around the corner. Whewee! A good day to not be in an RV!

Sue..... I dont have her yet. That is the way this breeder identifies them..... I cannot believe they would not chew them off by now..... But yes, she looks like she is talking.... She will be 8 weeks old when we get her on June 7. I will post pic of her with LitaBit......

The "chipmunk" is home after 3 hours at the Dentists. One extraction that was pulverized and had to be dug and a temp bridge, oh and a cleaning before the extraction.

Chicken pot pie was the fare of the evening. I did not want to sit and watch her eat. Probably more dripping in the pot pie than in her mouth. Hee hee!

PS: In an RV on the road, that is. And it's a good thing I like candles for lighting and that we can escape to the RV if need be. Second home, safely stowed in the shed!
