Re: ReFORMED SHOPAHOLICS week of March 13

Linda, that's good news regarding the respite care. I found the choices of chairs a bit involving especially looking through the reviews. By the time I finally decided on to had been considering was no longer available. The delivery also took longer than expected. If I had it to do over I would have checked the local furniture stores. That said, we've had no problems with the chair.

 

I hope you feel better, Barbara. Spring allergies are starting up here. That's interesting about Sydnie's scoring.

 

All 3 dogs went outside at the same time this morning. Griff tackled TT but I managed to distract him with a tennis ball. I hooked the leash on him. For the first time he started jumping up on me - just very excited. I was groggy enough I didn't think to grab his paws and walk him backward. Griff's tackle of TT was less intense than the other times. I'm hoping once it kicks in I can decrease the dosage.

 

Eileen messaged me rather upset. She got a note from our uncle thanking her for the birthday card but saying they had more bad days than good days anymore and just weren't up to any visits. She kept hoping to visit but never got around to it. I'm glad R and I were able to stop when we were in FL several years ago.

Back from practice...I sat away from everyone...the choir director thanked me.. I am going to lay low for the rest of the day and see if that helps.

 

Claudia...wonder if gryff has the alpha dog temperament, which would account for the aggression. My son has 3 dogs but they are all female so no problems...hope the Prozac helps.

 

Linda, hope dh has a good day for you today. Respite care would be a good thing. Good luck with finding a chair.

 

Sydnie and m are visiting Pepper today...if I were home, she would come home. 2 more weeks. M is going to have one of the senior girls, work with Syd to amp her dance up a little. Her teacher is worthless to say the least. 

 

Enjoy ot your day.

I thought at first alpha but he can go from lovey dovey with TT to suddenly fighting. After the neuter it improved but then it started escalating and I knew if it kept up one would get badly hurt. He had TT totally cowed and was just over half his weight. I had considered a female but had heard they could be more aggressive. We've had already males mostly and the only ones who squabbles in the past were a male shepherd and a female husky.  The vet thinks he's big dog aggressive.

 

What a shame Sydnie's teacher is so unhelpful.
