"We had created a nightmare inducing, wheeled, hellish pig jack-in-the-box!" Wow! That's the funniest thing I've ever heard!! :lau I couldn't imagine my DH down in the mud wraslin' a pig!! :lau :lau
Lori! I'm with you! That's what I told DH this morning I said "honey get the gun 'cause if this pig gets out again I'm shootin' it!" He didn't think it was such a great idea. :/
So Attempt #3 was yet another fail. We have the ramp and the side panels ready to go but the stupid pig wouldn't go...
I couldn't find anything like that. I wish there was a mobile butchering service here. I"m not feeling very cofident about getting this pig loaded up this morning. :hide
Attempt #2- We get a nice rigged up walkway for the pig to walk up and has no other escape route. We talk to neighbor R who said to use a bucket over its head to make it walk backwards up the ramp. Well that sounds easy! So we get the walkway ready, get mud boots on, get bucket ready. This works...
Stupid pig!!! So my DH is working and at school all day so I attempted to get the pig in the truck myself. Wow! Guess what, the pig didn't know that the open door and ramp was for her to go in. The trail of chicken livers leading into the dog box didn't even temp her. She took off and ran...
Tomorrow's the pig day.....opps I mean Big Day! The pig's going off to freezer camp! :lol: Tonight she had her last meal. She had some buttermilk, beans flavored with ham, some rolls and a half of an old hard donut for dessert. We have dad's lil' ol' pick up with a dog box on the back, a...
Good job on clearing that area OFG. I have a few spots I wanna do too! We've got this super duper weedeater that has a blade on it which cuts thru small trees and such. It's a handy thing to have! Think I'll go do some weed-wackin' right now! :cool:
I know what you mean with the yelling. I wish I could just calmly tell them to behave and they will listen but sometimes it seems they are trying to get me to yell. It's like they think it's fun to press mommy's buttons and get her to yell. I'm with ya', no more yelling! This semester I'm taking...
We might keep Paddy....have to wait to see how he is with the kids and other animals but so far he's been good...just shy. Good news on the vet bill. I posted the pic on FB and have some friends from all over the country wanting to send donations! We will see if it materializes but sounds...
I got some cheap-o dog food on the way home from the vet today. I'm glad I won't be feeding belly worms anymore :) I will get better "before" pictures once it clears up outside. I'm sure you would call Bones a "hound/mix". I will also get a better pic of Paddy but I would guess beagle/jack...
That's the only thing my neighbor/vet could help me with. After I asked about a flyer on the door advertising t-shirts for a local rescue group she said that they are at full capacity but might let me use their petfinder.com account to post the dogs.
I got a little glimpse of their personalities while we were waitng for the vet. Bones was being loving and very curious. He would walk around and check things out then he would put his head under my hands. He will be a good dog once he learns some control. I was able to teach him sit while we...
