  1. ...the gate went crooked. You need some new material. Yeah...I get that a lot! At your age, there isn't a lot left that you haven't used ... 'Shell

  3. Be careful with Samsung. I bought a new Samsung washer and dryer (smaller front loaders) in 2005. The dryer was fine for about 3 years and then the belt broke. I replaced that belt every 2 months until I replaced the dryer completely last year with an LG. The washer is still running fine but I will be replacing it with the matching LG washer soon (the Samsung is just too small for me now). 'Shell
  4. My parents on their wedding day in 1958.
  5. For both my rescues, I had a meeting and home inspection before I adopted them. This was a requirement with BoxerRescue because they wanted to be sure that they would fit in at my home and would not be sent back. Keep in mind most rescues are traumatized in some way. Good rescue organizations want to be SURE that they are sending the animals in their care to a good FOREVER home. Yes, it can be difficult. Yes, they are strict. And I'm glad they are since most of the purebreds out there in rescue were probably sold by a breeder to someone that eventually didn't want them. For Bug, because she was located 9 hours one way from me, they sent over someone local to do the home meeting. For Tucker, his foster mom came to town once a month so she came by with him to meet me and Bug. For both of them, I drove out to pick them up and bring them home. ----- And Marcel, sorry for the thread hi-jack. SO glad Chloe is doing well. Can't wait to meet her!! ----- 'Shell
  6. That was no fight ... it was an intervention .... for you ... 'Shell
  7. Correct. But don't quote me on that. It is the Prairie. Nights have been known to change! 'Shell
  8. Ha! She isn't so little. We call her moose butt. Hahahaha! Can't wait to meet her! 'Shell
  9. Wow. Pretty harsh. Parvo can attack ANY dog, purebred or otherwise. And like Marcel said, had he NOT taken the puppy home and then to the vet, it could very well have died. So he did rescue it. Marcel, I hope your little one makes it through this! 'Shell

  16. You're lucky Aidan called me and told me you were in town! Had I NOT seen you, there would have been hell to pay! Oh, and the quote is actually The weather's terrible, the skydive's suck, the beer's warm and there are too many F*$%IN' Canadians! Luv ya, bro! CYA soon! 'Shell
  17. Don't bury your head and think too much! If you want the employee(s) to be happy, see what works for them. Some live to work, others work to play. Find out what they will accept, especially if you want to keep them. BTW, ENJOY your weekend ... and that's an ORDER! 'Shell

  21. Thanks, everyone! He is a sweetheart! And Bug is THRILLED to have someone to play with! They've been growling and playing since they got up this morning!
  22. Well, most of you know that I lost my big white dorky boxer, Herc, in December. And Bug, my little white deaf girl, was so lonely. So, off I went to find another baby to fill the void. After searching and searching and failing and failing, I FINALLY found one through BoxerRescueCanada (where I found Bug) and picked him up TODAY!!! Bug is beside herself with JOY over having a brother (and EARS!) in the house again and I think Tucker is pretty happy to be here too! They are pretty much played out as I type this ... sleep will be "like the dead" for both of them tonight! So, here's my new dude, TUCKER!!! 'Shell
  23. My 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee would do this same thing every now and then. Wonky mirrors and the driver's seat would go all the way forward. I recently had a remote starter installed in it and since I've switched to the remote on that, I haven't had a problem. I know ... no help whatsoever but since I've had the same problem, at least you're not crazy! 'Shell
  24. Bug has a few names (not that the deaf girl answers to any of them!) Boop Stinkerbelle Missy Moo Herc had Boo Hercamer Hercy Poo Dork Not sure what Tucker will get ... unless he's in trouble!!!! 'Shell
  25. CONGRATS daddy and mommy! He's beautiful!
