Drive by

OK, just time for a few things before I fall on my face and die for a few hours:

~Piercings ache, but are settling down nicely. Sleeping on my right side is a dead loss, though.

~Tattoo on thigh is infected and unpleasant and very painful indeed. This is extremely embarrassing.

~I have decided to hand my notice in on thursday.

~This working seven days a week thing is for the birds, but I'm determined to stick it out. I want to prove to Chris, the vets and myself that I'm dedicated enough to do the tattoo thing.

~Axl's behavious is becoming so horrible I'm beginning to seriously think about putting him down.

~I'm tired.

I hope your piercings and tatt settles down soon. My nose piercing ached for days the first time I got it done; I was scared to sneeze because it hurt like a mother.

Good on ya for handing in your notice. You need to get out of that place ASAP before it eats you up.

As for Axl, could he be rehomed?

*hugs for everything else*

But don't put down Axl! *cries out in horror*

Now I wish even more I could just take him the hell off your hands. What's he done now?

If I wasn't so experienced at dodging teeth I would have been in casualty being stitched up... I know it seems unlikely - impossible - from the way he behaved when you were there, but there it is. I tell him to do something he doesn't feel like doing, he throws a tantrum. And they're getting worse.

Don't do anything rash. Come to the lurcher link forum (www.lurcher.org/llink/forum/, I think - the bookmark's on my dead PC). Someone there will know what to do or be able to give him an experienced home to sort things out.

Seven days a week? Eeek!

Selfish question--are you still able to come on Sunday night?

~Axl's behavious is becoming so horrible I'm beginning to seriously think about putting him down.

RUN, do not walk. Run out and get a copy of Cesar Milan's, Cesar's Way.

Seriously dude, no lie. Get it, read it, apply it. If after you've done that you don't see a minute's improvement in his behavior then consider the alternative. But, I'll tell you this. My dogs don't have 'issues' per se, but I am a lazy father, so they do act inappropriately according to the stricter standards. I devoured that book (just because I lurve Cesar, and his show) and just for shits and giggles decided to try his technique. An experiment, so to speak.

Two days. Two lousy fucking days of being a diligentlt calm, assertive leader and I had two entirely different dogs that I'd never seen before. I kid you not. Fucking amazing.
