Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Part German Shepherd?

We have no idea. All we know from the pet rescue organization that we adopt him from is that he's about 2-3 years old, and that he was abused by previous owners - he was very traumatized and thin when he got there. After my parents and sister picked him (their quote: "he looked like the unhappiest dog that no one would pick. So we took him."), we sent him to professional training, and he's home ever since (where we're training him again to trust humans and being an awesome doggie).

He's very, very friendly, considering everything that he went through. He also started regressing to puppylike behavior (crying to get attention), but that's given - we think he never really had the chance being a puppy.

Other than that, he's a doggie. He also gives kisses on the first human contact.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The NY Times Magazine has a nice article this week (a bit overwrought in the writing style, to my taste, but interesting) about training dogs to be service dogs for kids. They mostly use golden retrievers. Those really are pretty dogs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What a sweet face, Shir!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What a pretty dog! What's his name?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

What's his name?

Shooky. That's the name the pet rescue center gave him.

I call him "cat" (in Hebrew: hatul). Or asking him "who's a pretty cat?". And then he looks at me like I'm a very stupid person, but it's OK. I prefer cats, he has a silly name, I taunt him, he looks down on me. It's a vicious circle.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Shir, he's so cute!

I had a friend whose dog had an "official" name (Hannah, or a similar girl's name), but the whole family nicknamed her "Bird." It always made me laugh, because I would ask them, "Doesn't she think you're dumb humans, calling her a bird when she's a dog?"
