Ok, long story short: I need some extra cashola to help support my teenaged daughter's budding hobby. (She is going to be helping me after homework, school and lessons, because this is her hobby and I want her involved.) Sooo, I'm going to rent a booth at the indoor flea market we have here...

Now what? He is a St. Bernard, about 100 lbs. He ate a small squeaky toy probably as big as a golf ball. :barnie He never eats toys that is why I was ok with him chewing on it. He has done this a million times before and left it behind when he was done chewing. One of my last St. Bernards...

I've got family coming in from TX for a visit on the same day as I already scheduled to dispatch my first-time-ever-to-own meat chicks. (Where is the freaking out (but in a good way) smilie.) I have a friend (that OFG set me up with--thanks for that girl!) and my 14 yo daughter here to help...
