Granny's gone and done it again

Wait. The visiting nurse said Tom didn't need her??? That's not her call, is it?

Made his Dr mad and she said the same thing

when do you define Christmas is over?

I know you're not asking me but I feel super qualified to answer...

NEVER! Christmas is never over! It's simply more or less imminent.

Then go

I should hear from Dr tomorrow

Last time they put a 'cone of shame' on one of the cattle dogs....they ate it. Well, not really 'ate it' but they managed to tear it to shreds. Came trotting up to us with only the small ring hanging around their neck and a really proud look on their faces. Cattle dogs smile so you can always tell when they are really pleased with themselves.

With that in mind the last time we had to have something done to one of them we turned down the Elizabethan Collar and bought a pool noodle. Cut it to fit, pulled a shoe lace through it and tied it around their neck so it rode right behind their ears. Worked like a charm and they used it like a pillow.

They have surgery suits now. Stretchy like a onesie.

No I mean when do you quit eating the junk? I have a hard time deciding.

We usually just do the neutering ourselves, but we’ve done enough dairy bull calves that it was regular procedure to do it on a dog. We also neuter our own male cats.

I don’t think that is humane without anesthesia. Do you give them a local?

Why should chocolate ever stop?

But on the earlier subject of M&Ms, I used to be able to eat those but now they make me queasy & grouchy (it's strange). I think it's the candy coating.
I switched to real chocolate, like bars of Lindt or Ghirardelli... and Aussie Tim Tams. It's a lot more satisfying and takes less to get there.

I can’t imagine doing a neuter myself. I have seen two different neuter done by farm vets on dogs and they totally butchered them.
