What did she do to you??
EVERYBODY needed a bath!! It is so dry and with no grass I have 15 poodles that roll/dig in powdery back dirt! UGH! I know it was a waste of time but at least they’ll stay clean for a day at least (if I only let them play on the deck)! As much as I love spring it presents a HUGE barking problem for me. The dogs are used to having the whole lake to ourselves all winter and when neighbors start to arrive they feel it is their canine duty to alert me. Since everybody is outside doing yard work with 15 dogs the barking can be non-stop. I have lived next to someone who made no attempt to keep their 2 labs quiet. Those poor dogs were in an 8×8 pen with no attention and no exercise, they barked non-stop 24×7 (the people took their phone off the hook at night so no one would disturb them with calls about the dogs) the township did NOTHING (in a neighborhood so houses were close together) and neither did anyone else (as I’m sure every agency available was called at some point). They ALSO never cleaned up poop (which was knee deep) so if the wind was from the east (thankfully we get mostly west wind) you had to keep your windows closed for the SMELL!! I was VERY glad when we moved if for no other reason that to be RID of those A-holes and those poor dogs no one could seem to save (I guess if they have shots and a license that’s good enough)! At any rate that’s not going to be me so in the spring we dig out the PETSAFE bark collars. The babies are especially bad since ALL this is new to them -people, geese, boats, leaf blowers, more cars, quads. So many thing to give warning about and add that to the fact that they are approaching the age where they become protective of their home and family they are pretty noisy (with HUGE DOG barks too)! So today while they are outside they have collars on (off when they come inside) hate to do it, but really have no choice
