Dogs, Rain, and Puddles

Dec 07, 2009 09:58

Anubis cries to tell me he must go potty. He steps outside. It's 34 degrees and pouring rain. The moment the icy rain touches his useless coat, he starts dancing. As we dance to the orchard for him to go potty, one foot enters a puddle ( Read more... )

marley, anubis

lol... Our little Leo has this good sense, too. And I can even trust him to do his business and return without a leash as long as I watch from the door. Marley is very methodical about her process, and Anubis is definitely my ADD child. It sounds like he and Radha would get along splendidly.

A fence is my dream. Oh, how I long for a fence! lol...

Ya know, if they didn't do this, they wouldn't be dogs. :-)

True, true. It does bring to mind the inconvenience of not having a fenced yard, however.

lol... I know. There's a reason I live in CA! BUT, we've been down into the low 20s the last few days, and I can honestly say it's been better than 34 with wind and rain!

Hey, was just thinking about you. Hope this is a case of no-news-is-good-news!

Thanks for thinking of me!!! I've just been super busy over the last month, and I'm currently sick. I passed my interview for the Fremont PD, and I recently had my psych eval. I won't know for a couple weeks how I did on that, but I feel good about it. The ex got fired, and my child support stopped for a while. That was pretty darn scary. Fortunately, the Dept. of Child Support Disbursement finally caught up with him again, and I just received a couple months of back pay. That was wonderful! I went on a ride-along with a K9 unit on Saturday. I got to see K9 Rex do a drug search, see him deployed to search an empty house where a squater had been hanging out, and then I got to experience a code 3 emergency which sent us flying through town at 90 mph. When someone else is driving, that is a bit scary. So, mostly good, some not so good, but hanging in there.

How have you been?
