Oh my goodness......look at those paws. How do you keep his ears out of the water dish? JB is cute.

You are welcome...someone else will see the code and give it a try. And that’s how I learned...someone posted the code on a thread. Enjoy.

Pleased to meet you, Sadie. You are a very nice looking dog. You look very mellow.

Don is one of our heroes....my pleasure to honor him.

Here is a funny one - the kids were outside eating lunch, so we locked the dog in the house.

She went upstairs and jumped out the bathroom window.

He’s 130 pounds of God Only Knows What...
We think he’s Bloodhound and American Foxhound.
All of my four are rescued dogs so, other than JB the Basset, we don’t know their origins. It makes us love them all the more.

Rescues are the best - ours are a rescue dog and two cats who walked in from outside - all three of them would have gone to the abattoir if we hadn't taken them in and we haven't regretted taking them in for a minute!

I have a dog story for you..
Years ago we had a Doberman named Helga, and a Dalmation/Lab cross called Spot E Dawg.
Helga was always chewing stuff up, and ate a pair of slippers that Mr B had given me for Christmas.
Mr.B figured he’d go to the store and get me another pair, and I’d never know what happened.
He decided to take Spot with him.
We had a little VW bug back then.
Mr B said he didn’t know what made him turn around as he was walking into the store...but Spot had jumped from the backseat to the front, and knocked the car out of gear.
So there was Spot sitting in the drivers seat as the beetle went down an incline, heading for a brand new car.
Mr Be took off like a shot to try and stop the car, but no luck..
*Crunch*..right into that new car.
Mr B waited for the owner to come out and apologised, and said “It wasn’t my fault, the dog was drving!”
That lady never did submit a claim!
