I called the SDR about a speeding ticket once (a pretty big one at that - $240 and 3 points)) - I was very nice about the whole thing and asked the person on the phone if they could look up my record. The person found that I had an absolutely spotless driving record over at least 17 years, and then they waived the fine and downgraded the notice to a warning instead. I never disputed the fact that I had been doing 60k in a "school zone" (40k limit at certain hours of the day) at 8:25 in the morning, and was asking where I could pay the fine with my credit card. Worth giving them a call and just querying the fines politely and calmly methinks... T.

tdierikx replied to bridie's topic in General Dog Discussion
Did they arrive in time to let you register your litters? T. -
I couldn't afford a ticket... *sigh* Would be nice to win one so I could meet all the luminaries... *grin* T.

Me? I do phone PC tech support... however, I'm a fully qualified mainframe computer operator... Zeddy would be a Queen of some small domain. Sits there and lords it over everyone. Trouble would be a PE teacher. Loves playing energetic games with foster puppies. T.

Is the female entire also? Maybe your boy is sensing her coming into season? T.

Sounds like an appointment with a dog trainer may be a start... T. -
"the Sooner The Better" What Sort Of A Comment Is That?
tdierikx replied to Pepi's topic in General Dog Discussion
Perfectly summed up there Jed! T. -
If you have a late night chemist in your area, you could try to get a tube of Brolene (sp?) ointment - works a charm on most forms of eye infection - faster than the expensive stuff you get from the vet too. My vet has checked it's makeup and declared it safe to use on dogs eyes also... T.

I think that if he pulls through, he should be named "Halo" - for he certainly will have been watched over by angels - yourself included! Everything crossed for a speedy recovery... T.

There is nothing more becoming than 2 happy dogs smiling for the camera... Mya has certainly landed well and truly on her feet... she looks so happy! T.

What fancy name should I call my 10 year old Rottie/Pittie? There weren't any fancy schmancy names around when she was born in somebody's back yard and then given away FTGH at 6 weeks old... I just call her "Zeddy"... *grin* T.

We used to have a local pet store that fostered out pups overnight - we took home 2 Rotties and a Shepherd one night, and came back the next day with 1 Rottie and the Shepherd... and money to pay for the other Rottie that decided that he wanted to stay with us... *grin*... the pet store would check the vaccination status of any dogs currently owned by the potential foster carer, and they also advised that the pups were not to be taken anywhere but the foster home or mixed with any other dogs other than the ones they knew the vacc status of. Any pups/kittens not fostered by people they knew the pet shop owners took home themselves - no pups/kittens were ever left on the premises when it was not manned. This same petshop also gave advice on desexing - and for people on low income, handed NDN vouchers to, and directed to the local vet that participated in that scheme. All pups/kittens were housed in spotless large areas - plenty of room for all occupants of the enclosure, with lots of toys and clean water on hand. Not one locked glass case in sight... All pups/kittens were fully up to date with their age appropriate shots too. T.

I heard from a reliable source that it only costs about $10 per dose of Parvac... no excuse to not vacc every dog under 6 months coming into a pound with it... add the cost on to the adoption fee if you have to... grrr! T.

I have one $900 3-seater lounge - and the dogs have the other. When I bought the couches, someone said what are you going to cover them with... and I said "dogs, of course!"... lol! Here are a few samples... T.

Oh Darkrai... my thoughts are with you and your family... T.

I don't know - my Labrador gets well fed - though to watch her gobble, you'd think she hadn't been fed in a week... she's just a piggy! T. -
Hahaha! Zeddy did the same thing to my ex once... she scratched a bit of skin off her side trying to duck under the back screen door while he was opening it to let her out - so she dodged around him and came yelping to me for sympathy cuddles. Needless to say I still have Zeddy, and the ex is history... lol! T.

Maybe an offer to help them patch their side of the fence to keep their baby safe in future might be a neighbourly thing to do - rather than coughing up money for the vet bill that is obviously their fault... T.
