What is wrong with people?!
We had everything all set up to meet Kyro this Friday. Shadow's owners also took time off to combine seeing a car in NJ with being able to meet Kyro as well to make sure he got along with Shadow.
I just got a call from Kyro's owners. The husband allowed a couple from Long Island to adopt him.
His wife is mad at him because she thought I was a better fit for him. She's right!
What ever happened to common decency? The right thing to do would have been to go through with my meet and greet and THEN make a decision. I had scheduled the meeting first before this other couple contacted them.
My take home lesson is this: if I see any dog that looks like a good fit, I'm going to see it ASAP.

I feel for you DL. What a crap thing to happen.

Can't like that Dobie. That's a really crap thing to do to someone.

Morning, café! Thanks for the coffee, IM. That's a beautiful boy you have there!

What's with the run on dogs, @Shadrach ? Too bad no one is willing to help you out so you can get to work on your project. People can be so unreliable.

My husband and I changed the flail teeth on the bale processor last night...that was a chore. A couple hours, a couple blood blisters and a smashed thumb later we were done But! No squabbling. So that was good

Hope everyone has a lovely day. Supposed to be 50° on Saturday. We might get lucky and have a brown Christmas after all!

It's the holidays Meg. All those people who spend their weeks in the city come back to the countryside for Christmas unfortunately. Going dog walking is one of those things one does in the countryside apparently.
Strange I don't see the farmers walking their dogs.

Sorry Dobie, that was not the right thing to do.

Ah, my apologies. I do remember you saying that before. A bit ridiculous that these people "walk" their dogs, but have no apparent control or care for where they end up.

 

[Shadrach]

Yup, hopefully this will get us out of buying from the store.

How many pounds of meat do you get from an average NN IM?

The guys I get my bread from came up to the house this afternoon and gave me a 410 shotgun with solid shot cartridges for the holiday period. Kinda thoughtful of them. I'm hoping I wont have to decide whether or not to use it.

Not nice. Hope the wife cuts him off for the holidays.

A lot of times a warning shot will work plenty. You could use bird shot. Either way, I hope you don't have to use it either.

It would serve him right.
