Related: About this forumThankfully it appears this happy hoodie may work in thunderstorms.
Put it on my furry boy Dunc yesterday as thunderstorms were inbound and as the storms were happening.
My dude just laid on couch next to me chewing on a peanut butter filled bone.
Dunc was good to go no panting no stressful yawns or trying to climb on my lap as the storms happened. My lady friend pup. Ollie is not even one year in age , and is not bothered in the slightest by the storms.
As he was busy humping a couch pillow and always when visiting he tries to hump the tom cats and every visit pup is reminded that the cats A.K.A murder incorporated do not appreciate any attempt at dominance they bite and have razors for paws.
Ollie sadly suffers from short term memory and possesses the attention span of a brick.
We should have kept the calming hoodie on Dunc as we went for ice cream to see if it might have worked i mentioned to her later in the evening .
I suggested to my friend arriving at the ice cream shop lets leave the furry moochers in the car will enjoy our ice cream in peace no mooches involved.
As Dunc the chunk golden and her pup a Pyrenees golden floof feel that ice cream is definitely one of the 500 major food groups that must be shared.
As we sat at table enjoying our cones. Oliver sat in drivers seat intensely watching us take every lick. And my floof sat in passenger seat barking yawning giving off the stressed out yawns.
Dunc barking Et tu, father. W.T.B. What the biscuits ice cream is a Dunc and father activity not a lady and father thing. Tell you dude is Max effective range of a furry spoiled shit head.
We hooked them up with small ice creams after we were done. Oliver is with us all week as my lady friend has business conference to attend. And Im off shoulder surgery so i said leave your Special K-9 here her daughter lives with her and the young lady attends university locally.
Yet her kiddo has part time job besides university so no reason that Mr.Ollie needs to be alone at anytime as Im well trained in dealing with furry long eared galoots.
Yes a nod to my hero Yosemite Sam. I have to get going and get my friend up shes is pre-packed will have coffee talk and complain about orange asshole and his administration as her Uber is to arrive 07:30 she is traveling for business.
Ill even give her the First sergeant speech when as kid in army infantry wed have weekend off same speech. Do not add to the population do not subtract from the population speech. I used to give my wife my version of top sergeants speech when she traveled.
Although my speech is not filled with profanity and colorful wording or threats as top would convey to us. If I get a call from the M.P. military police youll wish you were never born people.
Mine is always stay sharp in traveling sit with your back to a wall in airports restaurants or bars observe keep your identification and all financial cards on your person. And when you and your friends coworkers go out travel in groups do not leave your drinks unattended and have great trip.
And as i close this out Dunc and Oliver have just dug a new best hole as i sit on back porch having coffee and both are now are taking turns barking into the new best hole. Have a good day D.U. Community love and hug them hard those you care about.
