Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

Haha Kathy, he listen's then is like... yeah, nah... what's next Mum.. where we going now!! Love it :D Your right, if only we could all learn to live in the moment like a dog does, I try but fail miserably usually :p

molly loves the chase game too. Unfortunately here in the city it is not a good game to play as a run across the street could be the last one ever. I am super careful not to let her out the front door at all without a halter leash on. Scares me to death the very possibility.

Flynn just has an adventurous soul. He wants to explore everywhere and everything. One must admire that kind of spirit. :) :) I'm so glad he is doing well, really well even. I agree, give that visa a break for awhile. LOL

huggers!
Sharlene and molly muffin

Popping in to say hi and to tell you I LOVE that you come by at the start of each weekend to say hi and hope it continues as it always brings a smile to my face.

Glad to hear Flynn is being Ace Dog Ventura:):):) He does so seem to lvoe and adventure.

The sun is out her in Wisconsin today. A rarity.;) Bitter cold is coming through again this week but the good news is when I lfet work last night it was just dusk. Brings me hope that by the end of February it will be light out when I get home from work.:D:D:D:D

Flynn goes nowhere near roads without a leash either Sharlene, he has absolutely no road sense whatsoever despite trying to train him. The school fields are right next door, so he is leashed for the walk down our driveway into the fields until we are safely away from the roads. We can only walk there when the boys are not in school and no one is about. I do love letting him run free though and it is a safe place for him to roam about.

Last night I took him up the beach, we were getting out the car and another woman arrived with her two big dogs. While Flynny is great around other dogs he does get worried by big black ones after getting bitten when he was younger. So I leashed Flynn, hers were free. While she was fiddling about doing something in the car. We started walking and then there was growling and barking between Flynny and the black one who run up to us looking aggressive. Jeez, it hacks me off. I picked him up, told the other dog to bugger off and stomped off while giving the woman "the look" but it was probably a bit lost behind my sunglasses :cool: I don't know if Flynn or the other one started it, but I sure finished it quick smart! I think she gave me "the look" too perhaps for being too precious with my dog, but if someone leashes their dog then they do it for a reason, like him having had major surgery 7 weeks ago and I do not want him tussling or heavy playing with other dogs just yet. :mad::mad:

Glad its sunny in Wisconsin Addy!! These snow storms will hopefully be lessening, isn't it great when it lightens up. I hate in mid winter going to work and coming home in the dark, so depressing! Well it might have changed since you did that post as I just checked the weather app and it said you are -7 celcius with snow, Sharlene not much better at -4 with drifting snow... wonder if drifting snow is worse than the normal snow :D

You are such a great mommy Trish! Flynny remains a naughty little puppy. I love his sense if adventure! Xxxxx

Hey you, I,m afraid I would have done more than a look to that women, it is a serious pet hate of mine. Woody wasn,t good with dogs, and I used to hate it when other peoples ran up to him off lead I was always afraid he would fight I used to shout get your dog on the lead mine is not friendly !!!!

Glad you got the shopping in hope you enjoyed your dinner :)

This happens all of the time in Greenwich. I would think that people would be more cautious. We took Daisy to a park, a lady came by with a HUGE Bermese Mountain dog on leash who politely greeted Daisy and all was fine. Another dog of the same breed ran up to her, it was off leash. Not so good for the dog.
Daisy immediately jumped up and hung off of its ear!

I was mortified and the owner of both dogs as it turns out, was very nonchalant about it.

Hi Kathy :D Valerie :D Tracy :D!

Yes it is annoying, if I see someone coming towards me with their dog leashed I always put Flynn's on even if I do not think he needs to, that is Dog Etiquette 101 for goodness sake!! Otherwise I judge by the look of the dog, it is good for them to play and socialise with their kind :D But if they look in the least bit nasty and I know you cannot judge a book by its cover, on his leash he goes as I do not want to take any chances. He has lots of friends up there, dogs that walk there regularly so he loves to go say hello and have a little romp about with them. Once a big dog had him bailed up and Flynn was looking scared, mind you he is a feisty terrier and doesn't back down either. But this dog was growling and looking mean... it would not go away. it's stupid owner was not far away looking on, man I was furious... I tried to get it away but it would not go... I had Flynn's leash in my hand and smacked it on the butt (not hard, please do not think I am a dog abuser :rolleyes:) but that made it run off then the owner screamed at me not to whack her dog... jeez that lady got an earful, had my phone and said I was ringing the police.... should have seen her take off after that!

How stupid people can be!
The visual of her reaction to you calling the police - priceless :)

Yep, something along the lines of your dog is vicious lady and if you cannot control it and just stand there watching then I will take it into my own hands.... I didn't ring the police. God there are some stupid people about, like the ganster type kids, in their hoodies with pitbulls on a heavy chain that have not been trained properly. I feel sorry for their dogs but I am scared of them and take a wide berth if I see any people like that coming towards me.
