4 dogs, 2 cats, and in son's room: 2 guinea pigs and that same brackish water tank where fish used to live years ago. Cats and dogs are all rescues, with mutts mid to large.

At the town park I see old people like me always walking little pooches, and I know why. The last time I broke up a fight, I got caught in the middle of two canines with all three of us rolling down the hill.

Our larger dogs are a pain to walk around the neighborhood. They are pretty wild, especially when a golf cart or bike is coming your direction. Going forward, we'll most likely just be adopting seniors.

Fredlynn is the opposite of ball knowledge. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an intelligent thing posted by that guy. Half this thread is him just whining and being an idiot. 

You guys simply don't recognize genius when you see it.

No comment on how many animals are at my house. 🐶🐈🐠🦎

I wish there were more Dawgs in the Sox clubhouse. Some guys on this team are soft mentally and let the pressure eat them up.

Are there clicks? Is there like a click of 2 dogs and 1 cat and they are like the popular ones. We want a breakdown of the social dynamics!

It's like Junior High. 

The boy cats tease the torty cat (freak). The middle dog has no brain and is basically a football jock. The white lab is loveable, but always getting into trouble and hated by the little dog. The little dog tries to fight everyone except for the middle dog (mean girl). The standard issue cat is too cool for everyone else and nobody messes with her.

Most also don't recognize that you are totally jerking them around and yet they fall for it everything and get hooked, Fred.  Like fishing in a barrel

When I say that this team simply isn't very good that is what I mean. When I write that Rafaela is hurting the team and should be benched, that is also true. And when I write "go Guardians" the goal is for the Guardians to wake the Flops up so that they realize that someone is right on their tail and could soon overtake them-which they very well may do. 

Unfortunately this team simply isn't talented enough to make a run in Oct. They could sqeak in (or not) but they certainly won't get far. 

I blame Breslow. He should be fired.

Do you live in a kennel? Seems your house could pass for one.

It's impossible to take you seriously when you wrongly predict losses all the time.

We had a cat that would go for walks around the block with our two dogs. She watched them do their duty and learned to go outside, so we did away with cat litter. (We have a dog door to our big fenced in back yard.)

When my mothers now deceased dog would stay with us, I would walk the dog and let the cat out while I did so and kitty would stick with us the whole way.  She loved going on a family walk. When Sophie (the dog) and I would turn around, the cat would turn around.  Shed never be more than a few steps away.

I think that cat of ours thought she was a dog.

We went with the litter robot. It also works great for keeping the dogs out of there.

I'm also guilty of not recognizing genius every time I see Cora.

Cora stole the idea from the British band Stomp.
