We (my sister and I) tried giving Gabe breath mints once. It didn't work.

They make (or they at least used to make) breath mints for cats and dogs. I never thought they helped. I think that's why they don't make them anymore.

Greenies are great for breath, though! It's not minty, but it helps! (Especially after my puppy has gone through the buffet--the litter boxes--and helped herself )

We should get some, then. The cost is the only problem. I'm sure we don't have them out here.

Here winterlife, see if this helps....

A couple rather amusing pics for today...

Beware of where you sunbathe around here, you might be in for an unexpected surprise (DEATH FROM ABOVE!!!).

Beware of where you leave your glass of water sitting, you might find that it's been tainted...

Yes, it does help, thank you.
Oh, those pictures are good!
Yesterday, Gabe had to get a bath because the on Veteran's Day, he got to go duck hunting. While out he got into some...stuff, and stunk really bad. When he got out, Mom took his bed. She wanted to wash it so he wouldn't get dirty just laying on it. He kept whining when Mom had it. When he got it back, he immediatly laid down on it and hasn't gotten up other than to go to the bathroom.

How's Gabe doing winterlife? Hopefully he's feeling better by now.

I had a brilliant idea last night of smearing Fiona's rope toy with peanut butter so I could trim her toenails. It worked great. My husband sat there and held it and let her chew on it and I did the trimming and filing. We only did one paw cause we didn't want to overdo it (or get her too full of peanut butter ) so we'll do the second paw tonight.

Oh, yeah, Gabe's better.
I doubt Fiona would mind getting full of peanut butter. I should have Cassie try that with Gabe. She hates clipping his claws because he squirms, and his dew claws especially need trimmed. But he doesn't have a rope. He chews through them too quickly.

Yea, winterlife and my dogs would chew through a rock, I think.

My dog has chewed up numerous pencils, rope, bone (really hard bone that's almost an inch thick), tennis balls, milk jugs, stuffed animals, and random plastic things.

She ate three muffin wrappers once because I held them a bit too low while throwing them away. She's eaten rat poison at least once. We had to force hydrogen peroxide down her throat to make her throw up so it wouldn't kill her. Two other times, we weren't sure if she had eaten it or not, we thought she might have so we had to force HP down her throat again.

Once when she was very young, she pulled my sister's sandwhich off the table and started wolfing it down. We pulled it away from her and disciplined her. We saved it and gave it to her the next day because we didn't want to totally waste it and we couldn't give it to her the same day because we didn't want her to get mixed messages about stealing food.

Ah, dogs!

My 5 month old Jack Russell just chewed through her 2nd leash today; this time it was Vala's leash. I think these dogs plan these things together. Things that Teyla can't reach, Vala gets for her; Teyla chews Vala's leash in half so that see can get free; it's a conspiracy I tell ya'!!!

Fortunatly, Gabe hasn't chewed through anything too important yet, but his food dish is showing considerable wear. Oh, and he tried chewing through a book we borrowed from some friends once. And he distroyed a Pat McManus book.

I woke up to find this on my kitchen floor this morning...

"What?"

She was framed. I can tell by the *innocent* look on her face!

Yesterday, my 7 pound puppy decided to get into the metal with lid bathroom trash can and spread its contents all over the bathroom and bedroom. She loves Kleenex (and any type of paper for that matter) and shredding it, so there were little pieces all over the floor. And I had thrown some trash from beadwork in there, so there were little pieces of the plastic that the beads came on all over...it was a lovely mess. Still don't know how she got it open. It was upright with the lid down.

Ahem, what about the time he chewed through the telephone cord while your mom was praying with someone over the phone?

Ya guys have some cute pets.
This is our family dog, Pugger. He's half rat terrier and half pug, and he's 4 years old.

I also have 2 box turtles that mate and fight all the time

Abi says, "I cannot tell a lie. I did not do it."

I cannot possibly believe an animal would chew clean through an cord of any sort. It is a conspiracy.
