#9 Where do people live that they have doggy doors?
I see them in photos, gifs and videos and all I can think of is The Wife screaming at mice, squirrels and the occassional trash panda or punk-rock-attack-cat coming in.
Kind of like how very few movies have bug screens on the windows when Tyrone or Jason break in to rob or kill only where skeeters and blackflies don't exist...
In the middle of nowhere. Have never had critters come through it. Possibly because of the dog smell. Out here in the weeds mice are impssible to keep out though even if you think your house is sealed up
Back in rural PA, we had a huge doggy door for our German Shepherds, but it was between the outside backyard and the garage. It provided a place for the dogs to go when it was raining or nightfall.
Simple answer, southern Arizona. Two Great Danes and a largish Doberman who fit fine through our 12 x 24 doggy door with vinyl strip doors to keep weather and stuff out. The cats like it too.
when we moved here, there was 4 cats hanging around the house. I told the wife to put some food out for them to stick around. they did. they also started having kittens ! anyway, found a home for a lot of them, like 6-7 or so. ended getting 14 of them fixed at the clinic at 25 bucks a pop thanks to some feral cat thing. down to about 8-10 now on and off like. BUT, there have been no mice in the house or shed. or squirrels, ground squirrels, birds or anything else. the cats kill EVERYTHING they can around the house. although cleaning up dead mice so the wife doesn't freak out is sometimes a pain. my neighbors thought I was nuts for feeding them at first, but now they try to "borrow" a few of them to clean up the critter in and around their homes.
We mitigate it somewhat by having double dog doors. One from a closet into the garage and another from the garage to the outside. The two terriers wish some other critter would give them a try.
# 9 is a removable doggy door that fits in the track of your sliding glass door. The top has a spring loaded device. You put that in at an angle, push up, then the bottom part into the lower track. You can get different heights, and different size openings, for different size dogs. I have a fenced backyard, so I would put that in when I went to work or would be gone for more than a few hours. That way, my dog could go in and out as she pleased.
#2-They start younger and younger. #4-"Leave the shotgun where it is, leave the range. We just cannot be friends anymore." #10=Good save Dad. Scarecrow
yeah, used to see the same moron shit back in Phily. I am ever so glad to leave that shithole. when cell phone came out, I was sure some asshole was going to kill me on the way to work while on their stupid phone or texting.
#1 Kudos for not grabbing the child. Could have been a life changing moment for either. #9 When that pup fills out he will be wearing an interesting necklace.
#10 I had a 16' x24' in ground pool. It was early March and I had removed the winter cover and I was in the process of getting the chemicals balanced. It was mid 50's and I had just gotten home from a grueling Air Guard training weekend. I was wearing the standard BDU uniform with the field jacket. My 3 year old daughter was wearing a coat over her dress and on the other side of the pool. When she saw me she turned and stepped into the pool. I took one step and vaulted across the pool landing in the pool at the edge where I scooped her out. I can normally jump 6' to 7' but I cleared 15' that day.
#7 never had a rat do that but I've been cutting pulp and had flying squirrels do that. Little bastards really get your attention when they get in a pants leg and make it half way up your thigh.
#10 I've made saves like that. Would have put a NFL player to shame.
ReplyDelete#10. Nice save!

DeleteSigh... BTDT, hurt myself but the baby was laughing...

DeleteMy in-laws have one for their Boston Terrierist. They've got a solid piece to block the flap when they retire for the evening.

DeleteBoston Terrorist cracked me up. Love dogs but had to live live with one.You nailed it
DeleteThat little dog wears me out.

LMAO Starker was here
Delete#3 ... Sucking rolled coal is the new Tide Pod challenge among our privileged youths.
ReplyDelete#6 ... Hey, asshole, use your blinker when changing lanes!
# did he suck start that truck? Kamala Harris is a pro at that.
DeleteI remember the joke from high school that the Hell's Angels idea of a perfect 10 was any woman who could suck start a Harley.

#6: Where I live, I see this sort of moronic highway behavior on a daily basis

DeleteSchuylkill is the worst.
Delete#2- Don't chase that kid. Just fire a warning shot to the back of his head. #3- I wonder why I saw this coming a mile away but the guy didn't?
ReplyDeleteHe did it on purpose. He was holding a pair of goggles over his eyes.
Delete#3- Yet more evidence that youth is wasted on the young.
Delete#1 Kudos for not grabbing the child. Could have been a life changing moment for either.
ReplyDelete#9 When that pup fills out he will be wearing an interesting necklace.
#9 He is filled out and probably an adult - not uncommon build for Great Danes. The other build is much wider.
Delete#2 And that, friends, is how you steal a police car.
ReplyDelete#3 is pretty much what a guy looks like at the end of the day when salvage logging a burn. And that's really not much of an exaggeration.
ReplyDelete#4 democrat
ReplyDelete7. I'd flip out too.
ReplyDelete#3 he’d better be careful, half of Twitter will be after his head for blackface crimes.
ReplyDelete#8 Cats do have a sense of humor.

ReplyDeleteJust to be clear we were talking about a Boston terror dog not the marathon thing. That was pure evil
ReplyDelete#4— don’t think that’s a shotgun….. not sure what it is…
ReplyDelete308 pistol w/brace? Maybe
