… oder hat das von den Hunden gezeigte Verhalten doch teilweise etwas mehr zu bedeuten und man “klärt” spielerisch die Verhältnisse unter- und/oder zueinander – natürlich unter ständiger Beachtung des Grundsatzes: Unerwünschtes Verhalten ignorieren – erwünschtes Verhalten positiv bestärken?

[Los Ángeles, Chile] [Es evidente que un estafador inescrupuloso está vendiendo veneno como vacuna antigarrapatas]. Lo leímos en La Tribuna:

Familia Destrozada Espera Que Situaciones Similares No Se Repitan. Letal vacuna contra garrapatas deja en coma a mascota regalona.
Para prevenir que el regalón del hogar se contagiara con garrapatas, tan comunes en estas fechas, y ante el ofrecimiento -en la puerta de la casa- de una vacuna que prevenía el contagio con tan desagradables ácaros, una inocente familia angelina accedió a inyectar a su mascota, que pasadas unas horas presentó distintos problemas de salud, que hoy lo mantienen en coma.El buen tiempo es sinónimo de garrapatas. Llega el verano y, junto al calor, aparecen estos pequeños bichitos que provocan una gran picazón y muchísimas heridas, infecciones y enfermedades en nuestros perros… e incluso en nosotros mismos. Lo que sucede es que esta estación del año es un verdadero caldo de cultivo para estas pequeñas bestias que no pierden tiempo cuando se trata de extraer sangre de nuestros animales.
Esto es un tema conocido, por lo que todos aquellos que quieren y cuidan a sus mascotas, buscan alguna solución a este problema. Es en ese momento, donde aparecen ciertos personajes que sin ninguna certificación y viendo una posibilidad de negocio, aplican indiscriminadamente vacunas que matan, aquellas que se ofrecen a muy bajo costo, en cualquier lugar y que son aplicadas por cualquier persona.
Precisamente, este es el caso que afectó a la familia Navarrete, que por buscar una solución para prevenir un posible contagio en su mascota regalona, un perro de raza collie de ocho años, decidió inyectarlo. Hoy el can permanece en coma en una clínica veterinaria, mientras que toda la familia se encuentra destrozada por la situación.
“Veníamos llegando del campo y por hacerlo mejor se vacunó. Quedó con daño neurológico, lleva ocho días hospitalizado, batiéndose entre la vida y la muerte”, relató Sassye Navarrete.
Consternada manifiesta que si bien, para muchas personas puede significar un ‘alaraco’, una denuncia que no tiene gran sustento, es algo realmente importante para las personas. Argumenta, que para su familia como para muchas otras en esta ciudad las mascotas son parte del hogar, son compañía de enfermos, entretención de niños, uno más en la familia. Por lo que, este tipo de situaciones afecta directamente a la ciudadanía.
“Me preocupa que estas personas ofrecen sus servicios por toda la ciudad, exponiendo a los perros”, recalca Navarrete.
Al mismo tiempo, señala, que Keeper era la mascota regalona de toda la familia, por lo que existe un profundo dolor por su pérdida.
“Es un perro de la familia, para nosotros es una pérdida total, nosotros siempre lo hemos cuidado responsablemente, esta controlado con veterinaria, le damos alimentos adecuados”, relató con nostalgia Sassye, quien espera que situaciones como estas tengan fiscalización. “Es terrible lo que estamos pasando por un descriterio de una persona”, insiste.
La Tribuna, se dirigió hasta la Clínica Veterinaria Pehuén, lugar donde está siendo atendido esta mascota, para conocer detalles de la situación clínica de Keeper.
El doctor Alexis Jara, médico veterinario a cargo del tratamiento, ratificó la versión de la familia Navarrete, señalando que, efectivamente, el perro ingresó con ceguera, vómitos y con estado neurológico avanzado, por una intoxicación con una sustancia que se utiliza para desparasitar a ovinos o caprinos. Indicó que pese a los esfuerzos, el perro quedó muy dañado, ‘en coma’; pero la familia lo cuidará hasta que fallezca por muerte natural.
El facultativo expresó finalmente, que este no es el único caso de este tipo que ha ingresado a la clínica veterinaria, ya que en la tarde del miércoles llegó otra mascota, de raza akita, con el mismo cuadro clínico.
¿Quién controla este tipo de situaciones?; ¿Cualquier persona puede aplicar estas sustancias a los perros, aprovechando el desconocimiento de la ciudadanía?; ¿Hay sanciones para los responsables de la muerte de una mascota?; son parte de los planteamientos que surgen en este lamentable caso.

Allgemeines Erscheinungsbild:

Stellt einen Hund von grosser Schönheit mit gelassener Würde dar. Dabei ist kein Einzelteil unproportioniert zum Gesamtbild.

Charakteristika:

Der Körperbau ist geprägt von Kraft und Aktivität, er ist frei von Plumpheit und ohne jede Spur von Grobheit. Der Ausdruck ist von grösster Wichtigkeit. Betrachtet man die hierfür relevanten Merkmale, so wird er geprägt durch die vollkommene Ausgewogenheit und richtige Zusammensetzung von Schädel und Vorgesicht, durch Grösse, Form, Farbe und Sitz der Augen und korrekt angesetzte und richtig getragene Ohren.

Wesen:

Freundlich veranlagt, ohne jegliche Spur von Nervosität oder Aggressivität.

I think about us, our first hug, our first kiss, our first fuck. I think about the taste of your lips, not on your face but between your hips, the way you’d moan when I’d suck on your clit, the way your toes would curl when you try and resist

I hear your voice in my head, feel your hands massage my legs, and your hands playfully stroking making me beg, I give into you let me in we’ve crossed the lines of benefits for friends, tantilizing tantric takes a toll and we collapse on the bed like ragedy ann dolls

I play in your hair and run my fingers thru it, I kiss your solar plexis and put my tongue to it, licking your emotions like a bomb hoping I pop your cherry and you begging me let’s get it on, our positions vary

No two people could love more, you’ve become the air I breathe and the purpose I live for, you taught me to live for, the moment so open you got me, I said love was for fools but not me.

I should’ve known better, now my undying love for you forces me by your side forever,as your guide, your shelter, your king and your protector.

What exactly is a “collie man”? Off of the “Live and Direct” cd, this song delivers to all listeners. Relaxing, simple, and re-list-en-able. A Californian band with a great mix of acoustic, reggae, blues, rock, hip-hop, and funk, check them out.

lyrics

And some man live his life
For profits alone
That very same man
He lives his life all alone
And the road to life
Yes it goes up and down
Doesn’t really matter
As long as the music goes on
Hey mister collie man
Why don’t you come round no more
Hey mister collie collie man
Don’t you hear me troubled call
Hey mister collie man
Look i didn’t come to disturb
You best not be come ’round here
Unless you’ve got me sensi herb
I never needed any
Reason for me to say
Through all them troubled times
Yes me love you any way
And the roughest path
You know the rocky rocky road
You know that
Life and love is a
Heavy heavy load
Hey mister collie man
Why don’t you come ’round no more
Hey mister collie collie man
Dont you hear me troubled call
Hey mister collie man
Look i didn’t come to disturb
You best not be come round here
Unless you’ve got me sensi herb
You best not be come round here
Unless you’ve got me sensi herb

Ounooi-hulle dink ek is nie ‘n opregte Kollie nie. Hulle het al so gedink toe hulle my gered het. Hulle dink ek is ‘n kruising tussen ‘n Kollie en ‘n Beagle. Siestog, kyk net daardie Beagle-foto wat Ounooi hier vir julle wys. Daar is ander wat meer opvreetbaar is. Hierdie foto’s van my het Ounooi vanoggend deur die sitkamervenster geneem. Sy wou nie die agterdeur oopmaak nie, anders sou my aandag afgetrek wees en sou ek sommer dadelik ophou snuif-snuif ronddraf oor die hele grasperk. Dus, Ounooi maak so bietjie verskoning, want sy moes dit deur die venster neem en op een stadium het my oog haar gevang, kyk net hoe loer ek vir haar.

Elke oggend moet ek eers oor die hele grasperk rondhardloop, ek moet elke graspolletjie uitsnuffel en deursoek en seker maak van al die diertjies en goggatjies wat die vorige nag hier rondgesluip het. Soms herken en die spoortjies van dieselfde besoekertjies en waai my stert geweldig as ek dieselfde diertjie se reuk kry. Ounooi dink ek wil die hele grasperk opruik, soos ek tekere gaan. Sy’s reg, ek moet seker maak wie ons tuin besoek en seker maak dis nie intruders nie. Ek weet hier loop baie keer krimpvarkies oor die grasperk. Oubaas het al enetjie gekry en my aan hom laat ruik, dit was so oulik om hom te sien en ek weet hy besoek ons tuin elke aand.

Op hierdie twee foto’s kan julle sien hoe speel ek met ‘n dik buiteband wat Oubaas vir my gegee het. Ek gebruik selfs my poot om die ding te rol en te kyk wat gebeur. Oubaas is baie slim as dit by speelgoed vir honne kom, hy gee altyd vir my goed wat my lank kan besig hou.

Hier ruik ek weer my krimpvark-maatjie. Ek het my stert so bietjie woes gewaai, maar julle kan dit ongelukkig nie op die foto sien nie.

Ek dink hierdie Beagle brakkie is baie, baie cute. Ounooi-hulle het lank terug ‘n Oubaas geken, Oubaas Johan, en hy het ‘n Beagle gehad en toe word sy hond gesteel! Dis darem nie mooi nie. Oubaas Johan was baie hartseer en Ounooi-hulle het my vertel watse oulike hond die honne was.

I was never one for dogs. I used to have a dog when I was a young boy, a husky whom I loved. His name was Smokey and I have a few scars that were caused by him, but he was a great dog. He got out, went missing, and I never cared for another dog again.

When I was 20, I went through a pretty bad breakup. At the time, I was taking care of my friends dog, Steelah Calrissian. That dog got me through some really rough times, and not long after I lost contact with Steelah, I met Shepinski.

Shep was cute, kinda dumb, really clumsy and he couldn’t bark. I fell in love with him pretty much instantly. He took a shine to me, as I did to him, and soon we were inseparable. When his owner was required to leave town for weeks at a time due to her work, I got to take care of Shep. Over the past two years, he and I have built a very strong relationship, and oddly enough, I would easily put him before any of my human friends. I talk to him, I run with him and I, of course, jump with him. We has more personality than any animal I have ever met, and although he has been very frustrating at times, I really would not change a moment of our time together.

Shep and I have been through a lot. One time, he caught a stick in mid-air, came down awkwardly and lodged the stick into his throat. I pulled it out, rushed him home, and nursed him back to 100%. One time he choked on a bone, I gave him the Heimlich Maneuver, no joke. We’ve run hundreds of kilometers, we’ve climbed thousands of feet, we’ve swam for dozens of hours. Also, he barks a lot now, and LOUD. We’ve done a lot together, and we’ll continue to for as long as we’re together. I really love that dog.

I just felt like posting this because he means a lot to me, and I found some old pictures of him that made me very nostalgic. I figure, by posting these, you can all see the dog that I never stop talking about. So… enjoy!

Even as a puppy, cats just never warmed up to Shep.

This is Shep, just a couple of months old.

Shep eventually did grow into his paws. You won't see that here, though.

Although we suspected him of being a loser, Shep eventually proved to us how cool he really was.

Funny story, two weeks ago, Shep actually caught a live duck like this. I made him release it before it was hurt, but it was shaken up, and Shep had a mouthful of feathers.

Cute!

Eventually, Shep developed a fondness for sticks.. and other dogs.

..and water.

This picture looks like one of those sad "Save the Animals" commercials. Where's Sarah Maclachlan?

Lots of sleep, lots of growth!

Seems like someone has been taking after me..

I knew he got into my bag!

Awwwwww!

Eventually, he learned how to defend himself.

He's very attentive too!

I just really, really like this picture of Shep!

Well, there you have it. That’s Shep. If you knew him, you’d love him. He’s the most friendly, mild-mannered, playful, energetic and happy animal I have ever seen, and I love him.

It’s a wonder how he got from this:

to this:

Climate Camp recognises that the economy and jobs of Collie are dependent on the coal industry. We would like to invite the residents of Collie to be part of the constructive discussion about a just transition from a coal-based economy to a sustainable clean energy future. We will be holding a public meetings in Collie on Sunday November 29 at the Margaretta Wilson Center, 99 Forrest Street Collie, 3-5pm and during Climate Camp December 17-21 to listen to what Collie residents have to say. We believe Collie can benefit from the switch to clean renewable energy without threatening the jobs of Collie workers or the stability of Collie community. Sustainable energy jobs are cleaner and safer than coal. A suite of renewable energy — including solar, wind, geothermal and wave sources — can easily produce all of WA’s energy needs, without exposing workers to daily contact with toxic materials, and without threatening global warming which affects all life on the planet.

Tallaght man Nu-Centz has kindly uploaded his 2006 unreleased album ‘Why Be Modest?’ to give fans the opportunity to hear more of his back catalogue. This is undoubtedly one of the best downloads of ‘09 if you like your Irish hip hop. The three years that have passed since it’s recording do not appear to have affected the quality of this LP.
Features from Redzer, Terawrizt, Collie, GMC, Rawsoul, Diligenz, Ratman & an exceptional verse from Maverick Sabre should cement this as a classic within Ireland. The production is incredibly tight, Scooby, Danny Diggs, Sub-X and more lend a helping hand to accompany Nuie’s style. The beat choice is impeccable and really deserves a listen, Nu-Centz flows with ease and delivers some punchy verses on every track.

You’d be mad to miss this download!

Sjoe! Hier’s ek weer – na ‘n lang tydjie weg van al die aandag! Hier kan julle my sien lê op my bed. – die bank wat Ounooi-hulle intussen afgeslaan het vir my operasie. Hier kan julle sien hoe lekker ek kan lê en deur die eetkamervenster vir Ounooi-hulle kyk wanneer hulle eet. Partykeer raak ek ongeduldig, dan staan ek met my pote op die vensterbank en loer vir hulle deur die venster. Ounooi het juis hierdie foto geneem terwyl hulle besig was om heerlik aan spek-en-eiers te smul en hulle weet net nie hoe het daardie reuk my reukkliere laat kriewel nie!

Hierdie foto is so drie dae gelede geneem. Ounooi het vir my van Koningskind vertel en ek kon nie glo wat ek hoor nie. Waarom kan iemand nie ‘n storie oor my skryf nie. Keiser is so gelukkig dat daar ‘n storie van hom geskryf is. Ek het my koppie al die kante toe gedraai soos ek hom geskud het en vir Ounooi gesê ek hoop dat ek ook in ‘n storie kan beland soos Keiser.

Ounooi gaan nou julle so bietjie bederf met nog ‘n stukkie van Keiser! Ai, wat moet ek tog doen om in ‘n storie te kom!

Hoofstuk 2 gaan oor Koos – die kat. Julle moes so bietjie van hom al gelees het. – as jy nie het nie, dan mis jy uit! Sien die vorige inskrywings met die bladsye uit die boek ingeskandeer. Koos was net bietjie flou geskrik en aan die begin van hoofstuk 2 word hy met bietjie water bygebring. Keiser het ook van LAG in hoofstuk 2 geleer. Poplap het hom dit geleer, maar ook van huil. Poplap se pappa het ook haar duidelik laat verstaan dat hy nie Keiser in die huis wil hê nie, want Keiser was nie ‘n skoothondjie – soos Vasti – nie.

Hoofstuk 3 – bl 17,18

Water en werk

Vasti en ek het mekaar maar min gesien. Soos Pappa gesê het, was sy ‘n skoothond. Nie dat ek kon verstaan wat dit eintlik beteken nie. Al wat ek kon sien, was dat sy baie lang hare aan haar lyf gedra het en dat dit haar anders gemaak het, want Piet moes haar altyd tussen sy bene vasknyp en dan daardie lang hare met ‘n borsel skoonmaak.

Piet was nie daardie eerste dag daar toe ons van Sheba af gekom het nie. Hy was ook seker nie ‘n skoothond nie, want ek het maar min gesien dat hy in die huis ingaan. Eintlik was hy glad nie ‘n hond nie, want hy het net soos Ousie gelyk. Piet het ook gesê ek is baie lelik, maar dit het my min gepla, want Poplap was lief vir my, lelik of nie.

Piet en ek het lekker gespeel. Hy was altyd buite die huis besig en kon vreeslik snaaks wees. Partykeer het hy ‘n lang ding opgetel en dan die grond daarmee omgekeer. Dit kon hy vir lang rukke aanmekaar doen en ek het hom daarmee gehelp. Toe ek groter geword het, het ek met my pote gehelp om die grond vir hom om te keer. As hy dit so omgooi, het ek dit vir hom platgekrap!

“Keiser!” het hy dan hard gesê, “jy help my regtig baie, want as ek hierdie stuk grond klaar omgespit het, sal ek jou weer van kop tot tone moet gaan was!”

As ons klaar is, het hy altyd ‘n groot bak met water gaan haal en my daarin gesit. Dan het hy my hele lyf lekker hard gekrap, my ore gevryf en ook my los lippe skoongemaak! Ek weet dat Poplap ook bly was dat hy dit gedoen het, want sy het lekker gelag as Piet my so skoonmaak.

“Ek sien Keiser het weer gehelp tuinmaak, Piet!” het sy dan altyd gesê. “Dankie dat jy hom skoongemaak het.” Dan het sy ‘n growwe lap gaan haal en my hele lyf daarmee gevryf. Ek weet nie of Vasti daarvan hou as hulle haar met daardie borsel vryf nie, maar hierdie vrywery met die lap was baie lekker.

………

Ek het baie keer by baie plekke water gedrink. Dit was nie so lekker soos die water van Poplap vir my in ‘n bak gegooi het nie, maar daar was iets in daardie water wat vir my baie snaaks was.

Die eerste keer toe ek daar gaan water drink het, het ek iets sien beweeg. Terwyl ek nog so hap-hap aan die water, het daar skielik voor my oë ‘n klomp goed in die water opgekom. Ek wou een vang, maar ewe skielik het hy weggeraak! Toe skrik ek en hardloop sommer so trap-trap met al my bene! Later het ek weer gaan kyk, maar daar was niks nie. Toe begin ek weer hap-hap. En skielik is daar ‘n klomp van hulle! Ek moes net weet wat dit is. Hoe kon die goed net wegraak. Ek het in die water geklim en my kop onder die water ingedruk. Maar ek kon niks sien nie. Toe voel ek iets aan my lyf. Dit het onder my gekielie, toe teen my bene. Ek het na die water gehap, maar kon niks in my bek vang nie…[word vervlog]

Hier kan julle my sien – ‘n regte nat honne. Poplap het my laas naweek gebad en hier voor die kaggel droog gemaak. Ounooi het gesê ek lyk soos ‘n natgereënde hoender! Wat is ‘n hoender!

Look, we talked about this… I don’t pull kids outta wells.

Hallo alle kinderboekliefhebbers – my Ounooi is die grootste van almal, niemand kan haar wen nie – woef! Hier is hoe die boekie lyk. Ounooi het twee van die boekies, maar o weë, hulle is weggepak tussen al die miljuisende bokse goete van haar en sy’t toe besluit dit sou makliker wees om te google vir ‘n ander een en na ‘n baie, baie lang gegoogle, het sy die boek by Maroela-boeke in die Kaap opgespoor. Baie e-posse is heen-en-weer gestuur tussen Ounooi en Oubaas Neels van Maroela-boeke, want op ‘n stadium was die boek nie meer beskikbaar nie en toe laat weet Oubaas Neels haar later hulle het weer een ingekry. Sjoe, dit het Ounooi lank geneem, ek dink ek was nog nie gebore nie toe die eerste e-posse heen-en-weer gestuur is! Die boek is toe vir Ounooi se sus gepos, want Ounooi moes meer as R500 se boeke gekoop het vir Maroela om dit na die ukay te stuur. Toe kon Ounooi se sussa dit weer vir haar pos. Ounooi was so baie bly. Hierdie einste boek het trane in haar oë gebring – van al die gelag! –  toe sy vir die eerste keer uit hom voorgelees het  vir gr5-jkinners in SA toentertyd. Die kinders het net so lekker gelag vir ou Keiser. Hulle wou net elke week weer en weer en weer van Keiser hoor en Ounooi het altyd net die laaste 5 minute van die les vir hulle gelees. Partykeer het sy hulle bederf en dan dit 10 minute gemaak. Ek dink van daardie jkinnertjies het al moedeloos geraak, want hulle wou net die hele boek op een slag hoor! Ounooi gaan vir julle bietjie dele uit hierdie boek hier plaas, maar as ek julle is, kry ek hom sommer in die hande – as hy ooit nog iewers beskikbaar gaan wees, want Ounooi het al haar dae gehad om die boek in die hande te kry.

We are organising Western Australia’s first ever Camp for Climate Action. Climate camp is taking place from December 17-21 in Collie, the heart of WA’s Coal industry. There are plans for the number of coal power stations in Collie to double. We are going to take action against this disastrous expansion. We would like you to come too! We would also like any help in organising the camp, for a full list of ways to help, see below.

For more information or to register your interest visit www.climatecampwa.wordpress.com join us on facebook email climatecampwa09@gmail.com or call Dom on 0415 258 301 or Mar on 08 9371 3791.

More About Camp For Climate Action

The Camp for Climate Action will be a convergence of people from all over WA and Australia who are determined to see real action on climate change. Australia is in a good position to switch to renewables and our failure to move away from coal is our society’s greatest climate crime. We need a just transition from coal to clean energy – not an expansion of the coal industry.

The five day camp will be a participatory and sustainable event, where people are invited to share, learn, plan and take action. As one of five climate camps happening in Australia, and over 20 across the world, it will be an inspiring gathering of people of all ages and from all walks of life coming together to take direct action for a living future.

A group of people will also be riding on the Munda Biddi trail from Perth to Collie, leaving on December 10 and arriving on December 17. For more info see the cycle for climate website or contact Regan on 0413 730 293 or David on 0449 001 108.

Eish! Julle weet nie wat ek gister deurgemaak het nie! Ai, hierdie familie van my…hulle het ook nie hond-se-genade nie. Dis sommer reguit veearts toe en daar moes ek eergisteraand slaap! Ek het sommer gedink ek word weggegooi. Niemand sê mos vir my niks nie! As ek weer sien, dan gebeur dinge net! Ek is nou 6maande oud en julle wat weet van honne “regmaak”, sal presies weet waardeur ek nou moes gaan. Gelukkig het ek dit alles ge-oorleef – soos julle kan sien. Oubaas was my baie genadig en het dadelik my speel-been met grondboontjiebotter gevul en en het heerlik gelê en lek-lek. Ek was nog nie behoorlik wakker nie! Kyk net hoe aan die slaap lê ek op die my matras. Almal wil my net rond dra en ek het heeltemal te dronk gevoel. En daardie “recovery collar” wat ek so moet dra, sodat ek my wond nie kan lek nie…ai, was dit nou heeltemal te groot vir my en het Oubaas dit so bietjie kleiner gesny. Die foto’s het Oubaas met sy selfoon geneem en hulle lyk nie te goed nie, maar gelukkig het ek iets om vir julle te wys! Ek wonder wat gaan Zumie sê as hy hoor van my operasie! [hehe]

A forum to discuss and hear about what WA will look like after we end our coal dependence and how we are going to get there!

Sjoe, het Ounooi nie lanklaas iets hier kom sê nie! Sy is ook so besig met haar werk en al die boetas en sussas se werk dat sy skaars lyk of sy lewe. Ek sien haar party dae ook net so vir ‘n vinnige vryfie en dan moet ek weer “skoert”, anders kry Ounooi ook nie haar werk gedoen nie. Maar Oubaas, sjoe, is hy nou uitputtend! Julle kan sommer sien hoe lyk ek op hierdie foto’s en dis als net sy skuld. Hy speel my poegaai en leer my sommer flink-flink allerlei speletjies. Julle moet net sien wat ek als kan doen – en dit deur al sy slimmigheid. Oubaas steek my speelgoed weg, eers druk hy my oë toe met sy een hand, dan gooi hy my speelding sommer net in ‘n rigting! Dan sê hy vir my loop soek! Dan weet ek dat ek my reuksintuie baie goed moet inspan en ek beruik elke hoek en draaitjie. Party keer gooi hy dit in dieselfde rigting, dan’s dit sommer maklik om dit te kry, maar ander kere gooi hy dit so ver weg dat dit my ure vat om dit te kry..ok, ek oordryf nou, eerder minute lank! Ek hou van die wegkruipspeletjie. Hy kruip my goed weg en ek moet dit soek! [ja, ja, daar hoor ek Ounooi sê dis nie wegkruip nie, maar weggooi-speletjie, maar ek hou van die wegkruip]. Op die een foto kan julle sien hoe gereed staan ek wanneer Oubaas sommer net die bal vir my gooi en soms verander ek my staanposisie – soos julle op die ander foto kan sien. ‘n Honne is ook net ‘n honne en jy kan ook net so lank in een posisie staan en wag. Julle kan sien hoe flou gespeel was ek hier, want op die een foto het ek nie eers meer krag gehad om die bal vlak voor my op te tel nie en op die laaste foto was ek sommer helemal hond-gedaan! Ounooi het nou ook slim geraak [of is dit nou pure luigeid], as ek vir haar my speelgoed bring en vlak by haar neersit, sê sy vinnig nee!  en hou haar hand uit na my, dan weet ek dat ek dit moet optel en in haar hand vir haar gee en as dit per ongeluk afval, dan sê sy weer vinnig nee!, dan moet ek dit weer optel en mooi in haar hand neersit. Sjoe, dit is darem harde werk as jy ‘n hond is en jy wil speel! Dan doen ek dit maar ewe gedweë, maar dan weet ek dat ek moet hardloop en my posisie inneem, want dan is sy gereed om te gooi!

Ek wonder of Ounooi Brandnetel en Oubaas Connie gaan opmerk dat my ore nou permanent regop staan.[o ja! Oubaas het my geweeg en ek weeg nou 12kg!][Jammer Ounooi Sandra, jou naam moes ook hier gewees het!!]

14 ani a trăit cu noi. A venit când locuiam în casa părinților. Îmi aduc aminte că era toamnă și am vrut să nu ii fie frig. Am dat drumul la sobă și am uitat-o mergând. Dimineața când ne-am trezit cred că erau 45 de grade în cameră. Scuze Max!

Max la cateva luni

A fost cu noi când m-am căsătorit și m-am mutat la casa mea. A fost alinarea mamei când a rămas singură. A venit cu ea când s-a mutat în altă casă și apoi din nou când s-a mutat. A fost peste tot în viața noastră ca un prieten tăcut și cuminte și ascultător și iubitor.

Max si Maronica

Cățel de rasă pura cu pedigree și carnet de sănătate era respectat și iubit de toata lumea. Vecini, prieteni, oamenii de pe stradă toți îl iubeau și îl mângâiau. Ca tare îi plăcea să fie mângâiat și scărpinat. La sfârșitul vieții nu prea mai putea să stea în picioare și cu toate astea ar fi stat ore lângă mine să îl scarpin pe urechi.

Max pe treptele casei

A murit un prieten deosebit și toți regretăm și suferim. Poate era prietenul cel mai bun și mai devotat al mamei. Ea în mod evident suferă cel mai rău. Practic Max era fratele meu cu blană. Cinste mamei ca l-a ingrijit dumnezeiește ca să ajungă la vârsta asta matusalemica.

Max la maturitate

Max te vom iubi și prețui mereu. Cățel perfect ești imposibil de înlocuit și te vom uita foarte greu!

Just out shooting photos yesterday.

All I can come up with is wild corn,collies,and flowers.

Day 20 – It’s a Dog’s Life: Meet Lady, she is the newest member of my family, and is my Grandparents’ new dog.  I met her for the first time today, and she seemed very friendly, very calm and very sweet.  That was until she dashed outside, jumped over the fence to next door, chased the neighbour’s dog into his own house and tried to bite him.  My Grandparents didn’t agree, but i thought it was hilarious.  Lady, welcome to the family!

I decided to create a Flickr account today. Seems a cool way of sharing pics.

Tho’ at the moment I only have about 5 uploaded... I’ll keep updating it!

This morning my dad decided I needed to start earning my keep around here.  So, I was dragged out of my warm, comfy, pillowy paradise at 5am.  Now, that might seem normal for most of you conformists who contribute to society on a daily basis.  But, yeah, that’s not me.  I ain’t on y’alls twisted sick schedule.  I wake up around 9am on a good day–when I can actually get some sleep!

We had to be out of the house by 6 to make it to the school on time.  Oh, yeah, my dad’s a photographer.  In the past he did all sorts of types of photography, but he’s kind of dwindled it down to sports teams and what not.  So, today was junior high football.  Those bitches have to be at school to practice before the sun is even out!  It was pitch black out there for about an hour.  Crazy shit.

Anyways, I was basically his slave all morning.  I didn’t mind.  I did not complain once.  And won’t.  I like to work.  I do whatever task I’m granted to the best of my ability no matter what the circumstances–I’m not necessarily satisfied with mediocrity.  And there was only one time where I thought about running home in fear of what would come next (we live, like, one mile from the school)–and that was when the flash wasn’t working (a very important part of pre-dawn photography!) and my dad was FUHREAKING out.  I am uncomfortable watching other people be uncomfortable–especially when there is absolutely nothing I could do except for watch the inevitable train wreck that was to come.

By some grace of god, we got it rigged up to where if I held part of the flash JUSTSO it would work–most of the time.   And the rain also held off until RIGHT when we were pulling away.   THANK YOU JESUS. OR WHOEVER.

My job was to keep the 12 year old boys in order–make sure they stayed in some semblance of a line.  To take their name, jersey number and team–to write that down on the “Shoot List”, take their order form and money, then pose them– left knee here, right leg here, angle this way, left hand cradling the football on top of the helmet, right hand on the knee, etc. etc.  And then balance this flash piece in my left hand the whole time.  Sigh.

8th grade is tomorrow.  OH FREAKING BOY.

Anyways, I actually needed a coat out there today.  I was trying to look professional and shit–I put on black dress pants, a black button down, black converse (lol), black glasses, black hair–I was pulling a Johnny Cash for real.  I got hit on by a coach–awkward.  And a 7th grade student–double awkward.

But, the point is… it was kinda nipply, I mean nippy out!  Definitely in the low 60’s.  Which, in case you didn’t know, is like sub-fucking-arctic down here in Tejas.

Case in point:

Can you please let these dogs know that the snows not a-comin’-this-a-way!  It is not time, nor will it ever be time, to bury their snouts in their coats!   Pathetic!
