Shay, we gave Bo a whole ham shank bone. It lasted about 10 minutes. Nothing left but a few shreds on the towel he was laying on. We do have an empty marrow bone, I think it's artificial, that he only gets once in a while, so we've made it last. He goes through a big Nylabone in about two weeks.

I'm glad Whisper is only 7 pounds. You must spend a fortune on dog food/treats and such!

Just sitting around, watching the stock market go insanely high and worrying! I have no idea what I would do if we could no longer vape, ran out of e-juice or batteries etc. A traditional cigarette would knock me over dizzy and taste like eating burning leaves :p

If I smoked regular cigarettes like I vape, I would be coughing and sick by now. I am getting like Debra, almost up to 6 Ml per day now.

I hope summer gets here soon, getting outside and working will keep me busy, rather than sitting here posting to several hundred avid vaping fans and a few friends. :laugh:

Here's an autumn scene for you, Deb. Maybe it'll hurry your fall along.

My wife stopped at Pet Smart and got Bo a Kong squeaky toy. It's wrapped with heavy nylon webbing and has tails. He loves it and we've had him chasing it around the house. Unfortunately, he's already chewed through the webbing and made holes in the rubber ball underneath. I think it lasted all of fifteen minutes.
Have you tried the Kong toy that looks like a bar bell?

I literally know how you feel, years ago I used to take my lunch break at the seattle aquarium almost every day. Some of the staff got to know me pretty well and I usually hung out either near the seals or the otters. One day a trainer offers to let me feed the seals if I came by at feeding time. Of course I came back and was so excited, I am kneeling down, face as close as possible as I am tossing them food, and bammo! one of them sneezes all over me. I had to go back to work with only the little bit of clean up I could get in the public bathroom and my overly long hair caked with seal boogies...

She didn't tear it up? The only thing that my Rotts haven't totally demolished is their Kong toys,even when they were pups.

Well, yeah. Eventually. She wasn't one to set out to eat up her toys, or just demolish them. They 2-3 dollar rubber ducky would last a week or two--she used it mainly to engage the humans. A bone was a totally different proposition, and even the biggest one would be gone in a day if it wasn't taken away.

Sitting down, facing forward.
Good morning Voltville! Supposed to be another decent day, wow, two in a row! Coffee is on and bagels are available, pumpernikle and sesame, and of course, good old old fashioned oatmeal with raisins and cinnamon.

You've got to post that photo!

Have you tried the Kong toy that looks like a bar bell?

If it's a rubber toy is only lasts about 10 minutes, Kong or otherwise. I saw a show on Animal Planet talking about the force of dog bites. According to that show, given Bo's body weight and head size, I'd estimate that he can bite at around 800 pounds per square inch, enough to literally shear off an arm if he was provoked.

I'm glad Whisper is only 7 pounds. You must spend a fortune on dog food/treats and such!

We're pretty lucky that way. He eats about twelve pounds of dry food and a couple of cans a week. We mix in a little wet food for variety for him, don't know if that's all that important but it makes us feel good anyway. For treats we use his dry food and a mix of commercial treats that we shop for on the internet and buy in bulk when we see a good price.

Shay, you have the same kind of luck that I have! I wonder of it's a techy thing?

Mornin!
I got my hands on a T3.
My X2 1300 looks a lot like a clarinet now.
btw it seems the T3 is too airy, do you guys plug one hole?

yes to can plug a hole...but on si site...it is stated....not to as it can cause gurgling n leaks...do so at your own risk....is your x2 a manual or auto?
