Lovely Monday

Where to start...it's Monday...evening and we are getting ready for bed. Cooper is watching Super Slueths. Gotta love My Friends Tigger and Pooh :) I'm on the verge of getting rid of our dogs. When one comes into heat so does the other. We have spent hundreds of dollars on dog containment facilities, nice way to put dog pens, and have watched these hundreds of dollars go down the drain. Katie, our prized yellow lab can destroy a chain link dog pen in just a matter of minutes during this time to get out and go find the nearest stray dog. I put her up Friday night in her crate with Roscoe, they have food, water, get out for walks, and so on and she destroys everything. I took them for a walk this morning, feed them, and put them in their bed so I could take a shower, 20 minutes later after I'm showered and dressed I go outside and the whole front of the dog crate is gone. We are at our witts end. We have bought 2 chain link dog pens, put tops on them, spent $400.00 on an in-ground pet fence cranked on high and everything available in our area and it's all ruined.

Our goals were to raised our registered labs and it has been nothing but a flop. We have a nice fenced in yard, but do you think that is enough, no they apparently need more. Getting them fixed has been an option, but it doesn't help keeping them put up.

Anyway, enough venting about the dogs. My child tells me he is tired and ready for bed.

Have a wonderful evening!!!
