Thank you so much – I’m thrilled with the win

Poor doggie – especially the shorts. I remember dressing my cat once as a small child – it was some kind of top and the poor thing tripped every time she moved.

Yup, I highly recommend a can of compressed air, like you use to blow dust out of your keyboard and computer. You don’t have to spray it at the dog–the noise gets their attention. It works a treat for biters too.

Hi, all. Buddy wants me to tell you that despite the fact that he can sometimes be tortured, he knows it is all in fun, and most importantly he knows he is loved. :love2: He also appreciates the suggestions for shutting Bailey up because his poor doggie ears :doggie: are ringing and he wants to run. But not far because he loves it here.

Awww how cute! Poor Buddy:(
We do things like that to our dog Macbeth too, like when we bought him a superman raincoat…which we thought was hilariously cute, him… not so much. He refused to walk! As if to say “I will not wear your stupid jacket and pee outside too!”

As for the barking I wish I had the answer, my dog is a Yorkie or as my husband calls him a yapper. He barks at all the other dogs on our block. My husband, who thinks he is Cesar Milan aka the dog whisperer, tries everything Cesar does, to no avail. My theory is he’s a dog, dogs bark.:hide:

Good Luck with the deadline…and the barking!

Oh Buddy you poor fellow.:doggie:

I can just envision Carly on all 4′s barking back at the dog, Liza.

:happy2: Not , not, not LOL :happy2:

I just finished Enslave Me Sweetly and Animal Instincts by Gena Showalter.

Animal Instinct was a lot of fun. Good story with lots off laughs.

I liked the characters and the relationship.

It gets a 9.25 (not a plotmonkey book):thankyou:

EMS was not my thing (Alien Love) but not a bad read once I got into it a

bit. Gets an 8 ’cause it is a little different than my usual read.

Next: Janet Evanovich’s new book released today Lean Mean 13.

Buddy still looks cute no matter what!
Good luck with your deadline. :) It means a book we can look forward to! :cooldance:
I have no idea on how to get Bailey not to bark–it’s what dogs do!
Congratulations to Catslady on winning Mary Jo’s book.

Poor Buddy. He must be a great sport to let someone do that to him. I think he looks so sad because he knows Daisy Dukes are out of style and he has nowhere to hide from the camera.:hide:

Well…if you are really desperate you could use a bark collar. We’ve had to use it on our dog because she barked non-stop and was really bothering the neighbors. It just gives them a little shock when they bark and usually doesn’t take too long for them to figure it out.

I’d try everything else first, because I hate it, but it definitely works if you get desperate.

Poor Buddy. I wish I had something to offer Carly but I’m dealing with my Buddy chewing things. We let him roam in certain areas when we’re home but when you’re showering or getting ready for work, it’s hard to keep an eye on him constantly. I guess I could try crating him like you do when I’m home, but then I would be having the same problem as you I’m sure. Good luck!
