Our neighbor in back came over yesterday. Seems that our little black mutt of a dog has been sneaking under the fence to have a rendezvous with the neighbor dog. Our dog is fixed but apparently doesn't know it. Now our dog has a new accessory. Something I picked up from my dad about 25 years ago. When filling holes doesn't work, there's a great invention. It's called a milk jug. Attach to dog collar. Dog doesn't fit under fence anymore. Done.
The funny thing is, (funny to me anyway) is that he's scared to death of this milk carton. When I put it on him this morning he started to run. It chased him. He spun in circles. It chased him. He shook. It shook too. It wouldn't come off. He finally went and sulked in the corner of the yard and wouldn't come when we called him. He just stood there with an "what is this freakin' scary thing" look on his dumb dog face, trying, to no avail, to distance himself from this thing that is now semi permanently attached to him. He was still in the backyard when we got home too. Good dog.
My dad is a genius.

We tried that on John once. He still got over to Sunni's.
Okay, when my husband busts up laughing after reading your comment you know you did good.
I really enjoy your sense of humor...as long as it is not directed at me =)
That is so hilarious! Poor Rascal.
They never emptied out the milk jug, I drank the vitamin D fortified, liquid power and I was off. John
John- Maybe that's why Rascal has yet to escape the demon milk jug.
This milk is only 1% liquid power, the reduced fat kind. No wonder he mopes around giving us the eye. Poor dog. Imagine having a empty plastic cartoon around your neck and no liquid power in which to escape.
Do dogs laugh at each other? I could swear the neighbor dogs do now as well as the kids next door.

I used 2 on Pepper. Maybe if they had attached 3 to John.....
