    1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from  you is likely to be painful.

    2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

    3 . Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.

    4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work,
    your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.

    5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when
    speaking to me.

    6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.

    7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet,
    I choose not to bite you.

    8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be
    bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my
    heart might be getting old or weak.

    9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.

    10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch.
    Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because
    I love you so.

    Take a moment today to thank God for your pets. Enjoy and take good care of them. Life would
    be a much duller, less joyful experience without God's critters Now please pass this on to other
    pet owners. We do not have to wait for Heaven, to be surrounded by hope, love, and joyfulness.
    It is here on earth and has four legs!

Two  Wolves
One  evening an old Cherokee told his
grandson about a battle that goes  on inside all
people. He  said, "My son, the battle is
between two "wolves" inside us all.

One is Evil. It is  anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow,
regret, greed, arrogance,  self-pity, guilt,
resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride,  
superiority, and ego.

The  other is Good. It is  joy, peace, love, hope,
serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence,  
empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and
faith."  

The grandson thought about it for a  minute
and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf  
wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied,  
"The one you feed."

If you are an owner of a dog that belongs to a 'dangerous
breed' category and you also have a child or a visiting
small child please take this as a warning.

Don't leave your dog with a small child unattended under
any circumstances!!!

Only one little moment was enough time for this to happen.

See the photo.....
Thank you!
The Dog
I got excited when I had a Pileated
Woodpecker on my bird feeder...
STREET GANGS IN
HELENA , MONTANA

It's gangs like these that the
people of Helena have to put up
with..
A bit different from the problems
in other cities...
It proves that every State has
their own "unique" gang
problems.
They roam the streets and
yards night and day.....
and you CAN NOT(legally)
shoot them

(Thanks Dave)
The Kiss
The dog is pregnant, the fireman had just saved
her from an inferno in her house. The brave
fireman rescued the dog by chasing her out of
the burning house and into her front yard, while
he continued to fight the fire.  

When he finally got done putting the fire out, he
sat down to catch his breath and rest.  A
photographer from the Charlotte, North
Carolina newspaper, noticed her in the distance
looking at the fireman.

He saw the dog walking straight toward the
fireman and wondered what she was going to do.
 As he raised his camera, she came up to the
tired man who had saved her life and the lives of
her unborn babies and kissed him just as the
photographer snapped this photograph.
