What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?

Thank you and that is one of the things that confuse me most as well. Ruby is the one that got the worst of it I didn't see any injuries on Tara at all so it's possible it wasn't her but the other dogs were the same size as Ruby and are beagles so I dint think it was them. No one had anything wrong with them but Ruby. The depth of the punctures is why I think it was Tara she fought with.
Labs can be jerks when they want to.
 
Alright, finally after a decade of talking about it I expanded my culinary horizon. Took my daughter to An Indian restaurant, very good . I was afraid I’d like 90% of Indian food but order something from the 10% and write off Indian food for good.

Hi guys sorry I was missing yesterday and this morning. Sometime during the day while I was at work two of my dogs got in a fight when I got home I had to take one to the emergency vet she has a large place on her stomach that is torn really bad but luckily didn't rip the actual intestines or stomach but is going to require surgery to fix today. She also has several really deep puncture wounds that may require a drain to be put in. It was late and I was exhausted last night when I got home and this morning I was running late and didn't have time to check in with my family on here. They are going to call me when they finish the surgery and I will try to update everyone then. I just can't understand why after all these years of living together happily why they got in a fight but my heart hurts thinking about her suffering for I don't know how long while I was at work.
Oh my Amanda so sorry!
Keep us updated please!
 
Just got a call from the vet the surgery went well they said she didn't have any pocketing which is where the skin pulls away from the muscle so she didn't have to have a drain put in where they had to put stitches. None of the punctures are in any vital parts she of course has lots of bruising. They are sending her home with two different antibiotics and pain meds and another medicine to keep her calm.

This is great news Amanda.

Awesome Amanda great news!
 
I wish I didn’t have to give this update, Jennifer is back in the hospital. She is having a very difficult time breathing and will be going for a CT to rule out an embolism. Those of you who believe in the power of prayer, please step it up. I know this is the last place she wants to be.

Home with Ruby gave her the medicine and some of my supper... The cone is kind of cute it says under construction and hug me, spoil me, kiss me, I'll be back and be nice.

Oh, he looks so much better! This has to be such a relief for you Amanda. Oh, the cone of shame, brings back bad memories for me. About 23 years ago I got home from work and my wife told me she was going to take me to the park and throw me a frisbee. I jumped in her car, she put my window down and I hung my head out as she drove. Instead of going to the park I ended up at a urologist office and she had me neutered. I had to wear the cone of shame for a week and all the other fathers in the neighborhood made fun of me. I almost drowned washing my face in the shower!

How not nice of your wife. She could have at least given you ice cream to drown your shame in.

I don’t eat ice cream but a nice medium rare prime rib with raw horseradish, garlic redskin mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus would have been nice!

For that meal I would beg to wear a cone of shame... ROFL
