Just had a screaming match with a neighbor. He keeps insisting that our dogs are killing his cows. It doesn't matter that there are roughly 100 coyotes around here and our dogs are fenced, not to mention a pack of feral dogs that roam the area.

Stupid old jerk!

He needs to get himself a livestock guardian dog. Maybe a Great Pyrenees. I am sure he would see his livestock losses go down very quickly. Add a donkey into the mix, and he would have the perfect team to take on any coyotes and or feral dogs. It is just so easy to blame your dogs; instead of being proactive. Maybe you could suggest that to him?? Sounds like he needs to sign up for livestock survival 101.

A ridiculous thing for the man to do! He wanted to take his anger out on someone and headed straight for a woman.

Sounds like a great plan! That is a terrific team but no, the man would rather lose cows and scream at Pamela.

Maybe he's pinning it on your dogs just so he could get compensation for it.

I will pray for your dog Todd. I lost my Mom at early age and still resent it...I am sick of selfish people who go through life not following the rules and getting their way all the time.

Keep her comfortable, my sharpei Jackie had stomach issues, dogs will break your heart , but they are better than people , and loyal .

I am so tired of people giving up so easily. I got a new job today, which I’m totally excited about. Of course I woke up sick as a puppy and lost my voice, but since it’s the first day, I wanted to make a good impression so I showed up anyway. Well what do you know they didn’t have the technology I need ready for me. They were scrambling to download it when I arrived and then when they called their computer tech guy, he said he was asleep (this is at like 10 AM mind you) and didn’t feel like talking on the phone. To add to that, I’ve been trying to meet with this professor at my school for months now. He’s ignored my emails, not been there several times when I showed up during his posted office hours, stood me up several times, and today he cancelled on me for the sixth time. I need to get through to this guy because he’s the only person that can convince my school that I can be an intepreter blind. I’d had issues with other people wanting to turn down my application just on the basis of my blindness but I refuse to let that happen. Why did he cancel today? Because he’s not feeling well. Well guess what, I’m not feeling well either. But I planned on showing up anyway cause I’ve been trying to meet with him since November 2011. I know people have the right to stay home when they don’t feel well, but I get frustrated cause I don’t have that privilege. I feel like crap most days because of my fibromyalgia and PTSD, but I don’t get to cancel every time I feel like crap cause otherwise I’d be home from school half of the time. It pisses me off that people give up so easily when I feel like I’m trying so hard. I know there are other people that work hard too, but I just feel like they’re so few and far between. Why are so many people so lazy or so quick to give up? It drives me nuts.

Todd00, I completely missed your post dreamofmonterey has replied to. I think about your sweet dog often, wishing & hoping & praying for her. (((Hugs))) for both of you.

I just got an email from a company advertising their end of Spring sales day
Wasn't yesterday just the start of Spring?

Guess tomorrow will be the start of Summer then

Thanks, DofM and DK. Sure hope your dog gets to feeling better, DofM.

My old girl has been eating well, but today she didnt finish her turkey and I gave her a smaller amount too. So I hope this isnt the beginning of it all. I'll try later on.

Cat1116, the way the weathers been this year, who knows. I don't like the heat so I'm not anxious for summer.

Sorry Nim, and then its people that don't understand the daily effort those with disabilities have to deal with that are giving a lectures on not giving up and trying harder.
