Good Morning everybody,<br /><br />Steve - great &quot;little&quot; watchdog you got there&#33; glad he was there for Lynda. I have to tell you about my &quot;watchdog&quot;:<br /><br /> I have a Basket Hound that has got to top 85 pounds&#33; He is on the chunky side&#33;  When people hear him bark they think we have some kind of huge watchdog.  But if they only know him... Funny story...One Christmas I was having a lot of deliveries from UPS. And Harley, the Bassett, had been barking at the delivery guy everyday.  One day he pulls up and Harley is in the front yard.  Well Harley starts barking as usual and the guy says &quot;Is that the same dog that has been barking at me everyday, I thought he was some kind of vicious watchdog&#33;&quot; I tell he is the same dog  and once he knows the sound of your truck he won&#39;t bark anymore. Just talk nice to him and he will quit barking... <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":smile:" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <br /><br />Ed - Hopefully everything will get straitened out soon with the HMO.  <br /><br />Kevin - Beautiful picture&#33;<br /><br />Shari - love your story about your attack kitty, cats really can be protective<br /><br />MaryLou - Great advice about my Brother and Sister, only one thing wrong with it sorry to say.  With them the more they know in advance, the more trouble they can cause.  This thought just occurred to me.  If you take the initials to Brother and Sister and put them together...that is what I get from...I wish it wasn&#39;t that way -  if only for my parents sake, but it is.  <br /><br />Hi Joey<br /><br />Hi Sue - hope you had a great time at the fair with your nephew.<br /><br />have a good day everybody
