Kali (my daughter) and I came home after an evening out to two pile of Boomer (The Labrador) Poo on the carpet. I cleaned them up and we played computers games until about 12:30 am. I let the dogs out one last time then went to bed. This morning, another pile of Boomer Poo, and a puddle.
STUPID DOG!! You'd think at ten years old he could hold it through the night!!
This morning, I got a wild hair up you-know-where and rototilled the arena. It just looked messy and it bothered me. Then I took the heavy chain harrow and smoothed and packed it. It looks VERY nice now!
When I returned to the barn to take the rototiller off the tractor, it sits at an angle and I can't figure out how to take the stinking thing off! RAWR!!! So it stays on until I can find someone to help me. (Other than Mike because we just end up hollering at each other!)
OH! And get this! I was cuddling with Jazzy a little while her water was filling and she had some loose hairs on her face. The more I wiped, the more loose hairs. So I spread my fingers and took a swipe down the front of her neck and chest. The silly mare is SHEDDING!
REALLY??? It's only the 6th of FEBRUARY!!! What is up with THAT???!!
Anyway, now I have a mild headache, and I'm chilled, so I'm going to eat some lunch, take a bath, and then a nap.
Sounds like a good plan to me!!
I hugged my horses....did you hug yours?

I'm on the coast and our horses started shedding last week! it's crazy! Oh, have you thought about a urinary tract infection in the dog? We had that problem last year - dog going inside (when she was very well housebroke) and it turned out to be a urinary tract infection. Gave her some antibiotics from the vet and no more problems! :) Good luck!
That's a good thought, but one of our "piddlers" is just coming off antibiotics for a respiratory thing she had going on.
In what we've paid in vet bills since October (Just on the dogs!), I could have put the hardwood floor that I want in the entire house.
I guess that's why I have animals... to save me from spending my money on frivolous things such as nice furniture, new flooring, CLOTHES... ACK!
We are in North Central Oregon and one of my 4 horses startd shedding about 4 weeks ago (he looked like a wooly mammoth - now he just looks like a horse with a winter coat). But after several hours of scraping pee stinking, crusted on poopy mud today, I realized that all four are shedding now. I know that spring is not here yet, but it is on its way. Come on spring! I'm sick of rain and mud - just sick of it!
Thanks, I feel better now.
