The New Offical Mutts of the House thread

She is, much better. The anesthetics seem to be hard on her. It has taken 10 - 12 hours or so for her to get up, and move around. She is up now though......went outside to do her business, came in and ate a few bites.

 

[Mick!]

Good for her!

 

[Reddog]

Sounds good

 

[Burnham]

Jasper had a hard time with those meds, too. The vet was able to fine tune to a less problematic set of anesthetics after she understood his sensitivities. So talk to your medico prior to the next time around, should that be needed. There may be a better choice for Isabel.

 

[mastermind7864]

Thanks for the idea Burnham.....we sure will.

I made a little "back porch" for the horse drawn carriage, so the mutts could come along.
They enjoy that hugely.

What would the correct english/american term be for such a carriage?

 

[Mick!]

Possibly pony and trap.

 

[FireFighterZero]

My dad would probably know, I would call it a wagon. Never seen one that fancy though.

Dad and I found the old sleigh that Grandpa used to pull. The iron is still there, just need to find someone to bend some oak.

 

[Peter]

Possibly pony and trap.

Isn't that Cockney rhyming slang?

 

[Dave Shepard]

Well. It's attached to a horse, so I'd call it a suicide cart.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Good dog!

 

[Bodean]

A buggy, Stig?



Penny's a good lass, nearly 10 years old.

 

[stig]

Apart from meaning bullshit, more or less, a pony and trap refers to a two wheeled cart.

Buggy mgiht work, thanks.
I'll simply use that henceforth, until someone with more knowledge corerects me.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Always called that a horse and buggy myself. I guess one of my clients calls it horse and carriage. What kind of carriage? I dunno.

 

[Burnham]

Buggy often refers to a two wheeled rig, single axle. Cart, or sulky as well.

Carriage or wagon is more often a two axle, four wheeled affair.

But there are many variations...likely local terms range widely.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Thats what I always thought as well Burnham.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I'm thinking carriage..
I'll ask Celine when I prune her apple trees what she would call it.

Just chilling...

 

[woodslinger]

That's a really big puppy for only being a week old!
But seriously, cute kid. Gotta love baby pics

 

[ksTreehuggerCo]

My ground dawg

 

[SouthSoundTree-]

NICE

 

[MasterBlaster]

Hey!

 

[stig]

Since I'm going to be making hay again, I asked the neighbour farmer to spread a load of liquid pig manure in the hayfield, to boost the grass.

Of course Thais got into it and ended up smelling so bad, that a trip to the ocean to clean up was in order.
His first, by the way, but he took to the water like a duck.

Got an "invalid attachment" message when trying links...

Weird.
I re-oploaded them, they should be visible now.
