Spike's Bitches 25 to Life  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Art Crawl!!!

Tollers. Not at all like labs and goldens.

They are for the most part, one person dogs. Also, extremely busy. Like a brit or a Border Collie.

They also scream.

Are (for the most part) not nearly so biddable as a lab, golden or any of the other 4 retrievers.

Of course, this is just my opinion.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Calli - she needs something a little more laid back. She had adopted a Collie who ended up being too much for her. He got everything off the counters, would run her up a tree when they went for walks...too much. But she doesn't want a little bitty thing either.

Health~ma to thems that need it.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Vibing for Bitch health...though not too much or we won't have anything to talk about. Mom is having a haircut this morning, after giving up the thought of long hair forever and realizing she can't cut her own.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I met a guy named "Sir" once. I thought that was super-weird. Apparently his dad was in the military--dunno if that had something to do with it. But--calling your kid "Sir"??

during our moving process we dealt with a contractor that was named Joseph Guy. Joe Guy! It, er, amused me at the time.

Aw, man, feel better meara and Cindy!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Health vibes for meara and Cindy!

I'm trying to find a picture of the hairstyle I want, and it's driving me bonkers. I found one once, two cuts ago, that was perfect, but I can't remember what site it was from.

In college, I had two goldfish named Sushi and Sashimi. Favorite fish ever was named Sir Oliver Microfiche (he was a minnow rescued from my junior-high lab and he lived a long and happy life in a mayonnaise-jar pseudo-pond.)

Once my work situation gets stabilized, I'm hoping to get a dog. Something little, that the cat can lord over.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Maidengurl, I am given to understand that greyhounds are very laid back. If they can get in one good run a day - at an off leash dog park, say - they'll spend the rest of their time happily lazing about and leaning against people getting their heads scratched. I assume the smaller racing dogs are similar.

(I'm starting to think my keyboard needs cleaning)

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Are (for the most part) not nearly so biddable as a lab, golden or any of the other 4 retrievers.

Ah, good to know. I keep seeing them lumped in with the various retrievers, only smaller, but I'm still in the researching stage.

she needs something a little more laid back.

Maybe she could adopt an older (3+) dog from the pound or a breed rescue group that seems on the calm side? My favorite dog ever was a lab/shepherd mix that ran me off my feet when it was younger. But after ~3-4 years she calmed way down. Still, the puppy stage is way cute.

ETA: here's a link to a dog breed selection form. [link]

ETAA: the form came up with spaniels and retrievers for me, which fits in with what I know about myself.
