I don't need farm animals too. :) If she needs something to chase, I've got squirrels and mocking birds that hang around in the backyard. <br />When I used to show horses, some of the other competitors would bring along the miniature horses to keep their "real" horses company. They were cute, in an odd sort of way. But really, what's the point!

You should ring the house phone an exact number of times, say 4 times, when you leave work.<br />I was thinking about this over night and what I think is happening is her clock has a general setting. A bit like you being unable to sleep beyond your usual time. Well maybe not you but most people have difficulty sleeping in beyond their normal getting up time. <br />I reckon the average dog has the brain of a seven year old so better than 90% of the human population. They just know things. And they could make a phd on their owners.Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442327549417743472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7071830940339914895.post-32930871636951534062012-01-08T21:38:16.116-08:002012-01-08T21:38:16.116-08:00@Marey - Ha, ya as much as I'd love to have an...@Marey - Ha, ya as much as I'd love to have another dog, I think that would drive me a little crazy.

The double edged sword on that is she then wants to bury them in the backyard by digging holes. It's a good idea for that period of time though, maybe inside if I can keep her from carrying it around and mucking up the house.<br /><br />@Jason - Yes, funny, but not ha ha funny that's for sure. On the day Koho turned two she was new and improved. Being similar breeds, I'm hoping that's the case with Rigby.
