This month ' November 2013'


Rufus walked the 5K on the Bona Dea Trail on Saturday with Brad.  It was for the Choices clinic to raise funds for a new Ultra Sound. 

He will be 11 months old next week (18th) and we haven't weighed him this month but we're pretty sure he's over 90 lbs and may be over 100 by the time we get him to the vet :)  He's a great traveler but we're still working on getting him socialized.  He gets a bit nervous in large crowds and does NOT like it when someone gets down on his level or stares at him.  If you'll notice his correction collar is the heavy-duty kind with rounded prongs that put pressure on numerous areas at once to 'get his attention'. This is because a couple of weeks ago when I took him for a walk he decide to run to the fence on the other side of the field and bark at the cows....unfortunately for me I had a good hold on the leash and not such a good hold on the ground, which is where I ended up.  Needless to say, I was not a happy camper.  Don't think I'll be letting him get the best of me like that again.  Oh!  and he also hates it when someone talks baby talk to him :)  can't imagine why.

Last week (Nov 2nd) we went out and bought this baby, a 62 Falcon, pretty good shape for a 50+ year old car :)  Can't wait to get the few minor things fixed so we can take it out on the road.  Anyone know where we can get some spare parts?
