The Last Dog Post Until the Next One

Rowdi was only liking the toys I’ve given her so-so, but then I bought a stuffed monkey toy. She immediately chomped down on it to crush its bones and then tossed it in her water bowl to drown it.
Good dog!
Rowdi is like the perfect dog (calm, sweet, obedient, already house-trained, hardly ever barks) with the only problem being that the cats are scared of her. My solution to that is to put both cats in a burlap sack and throw them in a bog. I honestly don’t know where to buy a burlap sack, though, but I bet I could find the nearest bog using Google. SarahK vetoed that idea, though.
Instead, we’ve penned off the kitchen and made that Rowdi’s area. The cat’s get the rest of the house since they were here first. Also, the kitchen gate is situated so that the cats will never see the dog unless they choose to go over and see her (which Sydney, being both dumb and brave, has done a couple times). Hopefully the cats will get over their fear in not too long, because I really want to let Rowdi have full run of the house. I don’t know about you, but to me the main point of a dog is for her to lay at your feet chewing a toy while you watch TV.
Anyway, wish SarahK luck. She has to take care of and walk big happy Rowdi until I get home from work today.

    You could probably get a burlap sack from a Home Depot or Lowe’s or maybe an apple orchard or some such. So far as a bog, aren’t you near Louisiana? Isn’t that just one BIG bog?
    Besides, after 2 or 3 days, it’s not like anyone would NOTICE missing cats…

  2. Sarah, pay no attention to this comment. 😉 There’s some nice bogs to the west of ya’ll. Of course, you could always travel a litle north. Most of MI is a bog. You could take Sarah to the Cracker Barrell at SR50 & 95. There’s a nice bog behind it. Or you could send the cats to me. I like cats. They have an independent spirit reminescent of our forefathers, before the New Deal. Plus you don’t have to walk them twice a day.

    Hey, my cat does this, too! He also plays fetch with his little catnip-filled silky-plush animals.
    I wonder if he was a dog in a past life? He sure must’ve been a good one to get reincarnated as a cat!
