THE Random Chat Thread - AKA "The RCT" - No shirt or shoes required - Open 24 / 7

Thanks Bart, we're pretty excited about it.
As we all new Max, and we all grew to love him here, it was tough knowing that you were hurting when he passed....many times I would type something I wanted to say, but knowing its personal and private moment for you I would delete before posting....deep inside I thought to my self.....when the time comes pepper 🌶 will make the decision of either having a new partner, friend, companion, or not !! Im extremely happy for you and this decision.....I hope it happens for you pepper 🌶....god bless our fury friends.

This is pinky !! Pinky is our shop dog !! She's a typical pit bull full of love and joy, but a no nonsense yard dog !! She loves people, but will attack other dogs....so she's on a short leash so to speak around other dogs !! This dogs energy and power are a sight to behold....she has eradicated the iguanas in the logging yard, and we are attempting to grow champion watermelons 🍉 this year. Iguanas have destroyed all our gardens in the past, and pinky now guards the melon patch from the dinosaurs/iguanas!!

Then there is this knuckle head !! This cat is a manx....born with no tail like a bobcat. Thick and stocky with extra long back legs. Easily jumping from ground to counter tops even though she knows she shouldn't be up there !! Her name is IRMA after the hurricane!!
 
Good morning all. Finally got to do a little detecting yesterday but didn't find too much of interest. Just some rusty bits and pieces and one old dog tag from 1894. I added it to my journal here.

Our shop dog was the same, kill anything that had feathers or fur, but loved people.
When questioning a guy that stole some scrap the topic of the dog came up-"You got a dog?":laughing7:

Nothing will replace the Max in my heart as he can easily wet the eyes just writing this even.

But I know the Titan will grab the heart strings as they just have a way of doing those types of things it seems.
It will take some time to get to know what works, and what doesn't.

They told me he doesn't do well in the car rides. Barfing is his issue, but it's getting better they claim.
(It could be baggage from when he was born and the owner threw the litter in the ditch.)
They transferred the litter to the Neonatal unit as they were bottle fed till they could be fed regular food.
His 3 sisters were adopted out but he just hasn't found his home till now. (fingers crossed).
They have had him fixed, all the shots, microchipped and all the health records on him since day one.
He's had multiple training sessions with a high end dog trainer as well.

I asked about if it doesn't work out-No problem he always has a home here.
Now if I can mellow out Mrs a tad-not sure if she has touched the floor since she has gotten up-excited....:laughing7:

Smells can affect car ills. New cars more so. Smokers. Ambient scents when powerful. Magnified hundreds of times to some canines. Pines at times. Corn at times..
I had a squirrel dog would curl up on the seat but stand when we crossed a particular small river.

Direction of body position in relation to axels can too. Hydraulics of sloshing , or inner ear or something.

Hunts. Dog shows. short travels I've long tried to avoid full pup bellies in a vehicle.
Always bags and paper towels on hand anyways. Don't want a fuss over it.
Of the last 36 dogs I'm not recalling any car sick. A couple queasy getting accustomed; yes.

"Fridin" is going for a ride.
A deliberate trip last week involved lady friend and a cheeseburger (bite) for her ailing champ. Sometimes some things just need done for traditions sake,
Many years of such travel for those two and others with a positive result of riding.
Sometimes; just to ride.
 
Mornin all.
Just below freezing and last nights snow was capped with a thin layer of ice.
I'm about a third done with "get to things" shoveling. Vital to do so tomorrow early as visitation and funeral mean a trip East for her. Weather allows we'll sneak out for a pre St. Paticks day imitation tonight as we'll be apart on that day.
I'll stay here with the dogs.

Wind is up again. Rain later; then snow. Ice here and there. Allegedly. Storms but no bulleyes called yet. Or I just don't care beyond it'll storm.
A couple feet of snow farther North is being called for in the U.P.. Deer will be frowning.
 
Evening all xx hope you are all doing well xx we managed to get a break in the rain and get out yesterday, today the rain was back 🤨 at least the fields are too wet to plant.. but I will be very glad when our weekends return to normal! It’s himself’s 60th this year in August… having to spend time indoors with him is reducing the odds of him making it to the big day 😂😂😂 xx

I spent a lot of years doing dog sports, Schutzhund etc and your not wrong… also males are more protective of property, your car, yard etc while females are more protective of their owner, pack etc.

Yes, that’s what you think it says on the shirt, cuz I is one, it’s not about female dogs… lol

I am NOT a fan of junk biting dogs
 
Yes, I agree completely, nor am I.

Reminds me of that bar scene from Crocodile Dundee where the ugly dude dressed
as a chick was hitting on Dundee........."Just checking"..
