Sondermeldung

If the old Third Reich would still be around, I could send out a " Sondermeldung " with heavy Franz Liszt music, " Les Preludes ".
Special message : Great news, Schatzi barked two little woofs,and one growl, just about 1 in the morning. She can say something ! But so far she had nothing else to add.
The weather was incredible bad with everything that an ecstatic meteorologist can produce in a day in the Rockies. Tornadoes north of here, thunderstorms, rain and hail, fog, a little sun ,a blizzard and terrible wind. The window was cracked at night , the curtains were waving back and forth and reaching all the way to our bed .That was enough of a concern to bark back. Two little woofs and a small growl.
At least we know, she can talk.

We anticipated a set back of a couple of days after the spay.
She is sleeping mostly and healing.
The wind gusts are still crazy and it is almost impossible to get her to go outside. With a cowed look and panic in her eyes, Dad picks her up and brings her inside right away. No action of course again. This can't be good for her kidneys, especially since she amended the 24 hour plan to about 30 .
So we decided to try indoor plumbing.
The pet store now sells piddle pads, sort of flat diapers, with a scent built in, that is supposed to attract the dog and wants him to go on that spot.
Dad sat her on the pad. Schatzi is not interested.
The only thing of interest is how can I cover the distance from that " Fresh Grass " scented piddle pad to my safe basket ?
I could, and I am staying put.
