{{{SJ}}} hope it goes well.
Bonny, could it be the wheel chair that is setting him off? I know my crutches gets dogs barking sometimes.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Tep, if you ever meet my mom, she has a whole rant about junk like that. Also, non-Buffista Secret Santa and etc. Ha...I get a "Justified" toaster. Which will either blow up in my face, or dispense bourbon, I can't decide, but Fandom Friend has agreed to start watching. Paradoxically, at times like that, I feel a little closer to my Mormon ancestors, even if they spread LDS doctrine and I read about the Church of The Cool and Beautiful JC.(if there was a real one I'd so go, best name ever) (She's worried her DH won't like it...it's hard to imagine he would not...maybe he's a Documentary Guy.

Cagney!! Chill, son!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I know a lot of dogs who have fear responses to wheelchairs, strollers, etc.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Funnily enough, my brother's weirdo rescue sheltie does not have one. He always wants to lick my face off.(he freaks out about a million other things, though, poor guy.)

The move is going well but taking longer than we hoped.
Moving, man. It always does. Even when you know it will take longer than you think it will, it takes longer than that.
Good luck getting through the rest of the day!

Bonny, could it be the wheel chair that is setting him off? I know my crutches gets dogs barking sometimes.
omnis, I'm assuming that it is partly the chair, partly the smell and mostly that Roger is pretty calm, but has unbalanced energy.
Cagney!! Chill, son!
smonster, if you could say that directly to him, and have him hear you, that would be awesome.
We've just had our last training session with the Bulldog specialist. She sort of delivered a clue-by-four that has me feeling sad but...
She reminded me that I trained Bartleby to be serious and wanted me to be careful to not train the 'spark' out of Cagney. "In three years, he's going to be great."
It would be a dreary discourse to explain what this means philosophically, emotionally and spiritually to me, but suffice to say, it's big and very difficult.

You don't have to do it, bonny.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I guess I would just caution you, bonny, to see the dog that's in front of you.
Cagney is not going to fill the Bartleby sized hole in your heart. But your heart will learn to love this dog for being itself, if you can let that happen.
Let this be a well-trained Cagney instead of an inferior Bartleby.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Cagney is not going to fill the Bartleby sized hole in your heart. But your heart will learn to love this dog for being itself, if you can let that happen.
I've been learning this lesson myself. I adopted a shelter kitty a month ago (a cute orange tabby named Seamus). He will never fill my Mickey shaped hole, but he's worming his way into his own, Seamus shaped one.
