“He goes on all the car rides, we do the dog park, our daily walk and he loves to visit the school whenever he can. He also likes to visit the senior center about once a month.”
“She’s just 5 months old, but we like to take her out on the boat at Clinton Lake.”
“We go to the dog park and take daily walks.”
“We go to Mutt-Run Off-Leash Dog Park and go for lots of rides in the country, and in town as well. And he loves to chase any kind of ball.”

I have come to the conclusion that this forum is nothing but a bunch of fluff 90% of the time. Nary a serious bone in the body.

I take my dog to the bars with me....he is my designated driver.
punkrockmom 4 years, 8 months ago
My dog enjoys escaping and running down the street. I don't enjoy searching for him.

We seem to have grown apart.I am trying to enjoy and embrace life in the manner of a patrician, but the curmudgeon just gloweringly sits there licking himself.

ms_c,I don't remember there being a serious bone in any body. But we do have humerus bones.

I am with Ms. C. How are we supposed to solve the problems of the world with bonehead questions like this one? Yawn.

I've seen a look in dogs' eyes,a quickly vanishing look of amazed contempt, and I am convinced that basically dogs think humans are nuts."John Steinbeck (1902-1968)---I love our daily walks, they are a blessing, source of strength. I wonder, if more people in the world had a good dalk to walk with, if our world would be happier and more peaceful.
bombshell 4 years, 8 months ago
maybe the question isn't solving the world's problems, but for people with dogs it may give locals more ideas for places to take their canine companions...
RETICENT_IRREVERENT 4 years, 8 months ago
This question is discriminating against folks that don't have canines. - T_O_BJust too meaty of a question for the toothless?

Unnecessary licking and rolling in dead things. We also enjoy having cockle-burrs and ticks picked from our fur.snap, the lemurs must be trying to drown out the noise...

TOB, since I started playing Barry Manilow music in the lemur barn at night, the population has exploded.

bombshell: I did not mean to offend...just a thinly disguised attempt at humor after the more meaty topics of late.
sgtwolverine 4 years, 8 months ago
Yeah, I don't have a dog, and I'm deeply offended. I demand a recount.
snap_pop_no_crackle 4 years, 8 months ago
Slighty off-topic, never take a herd of lemurs to a Putt-Putt course. That's the voice of bitter experience talking.

Me and my doggs like hanging out on the street corner thumpin' tunes and watchin' girls in tight pants and tube tops...we drink Southern Comfort and gin and juice and smoke full flavors...Blunts and the Chronic. We ride together...and hang out on the coner waiting for the ho's to come ova...and we play tracks to listen to as we hang

Hitme~ Sounds like the guy has a real thing for Rottweilers. Maybe they could get him to lose his fetish by sticking him in a yard with trained attack Rotties. If he associated them with pain & mayhem, he'd probably be disinclined to abuse one again. (And, depending on how long he was in the yard with them, maybe he'd no longer have the requisite equipment to do so.)What puts such a twist on someone's brain, anyway?!
looza 4 years, 8 months ago
We both signed up for a Leg Hiking 101 class over at KU. We pull fleas off each others bodies and trade them. He shows me how to lick my package and drink outta the toilet and I got him working the T.V. remote and heating up chicken patties in the toaster oven. He's a good boy!

we like long walks on the beach, cuddling in front of a roaring fire, french kissing in the back of a cab, sharing a cigarette after a long passionate session of hot steamy sex(OK, I'm lying ....neither one of us smoke)
