Open house is over. People actually showed at this one. This is our 5th Open House in the last two years and the first one that ever had anyone attend. We had 5 sets of lookers. Very pleased.
Keeping the dogs occupied was interesting. We tried PetSmart. We know that Maggie doesn't do well with other dogs, but we had high hopes. They were dashed. I had to rush her back outside and send S in to buy some Bitter Yuck spray. Then we ventured back in. It went much better with that threat hanging over her head. She even let a playful German Shepherd pup touch her nose. An unheard of liberty.
Then we took them to the park. We walked for an hour. I'm not sure who was limping more, Maggie or me. Rocky did fine, as he always does. The girls had fun watching people watch Maggie. They are either mesmerized or terrified, but rarely indifferent. Today a young boy saw her, threw up his arms and yelled "Bear!" So this week she has been called both a tiger and a bear. If we can add lion to the mix, then I can pretend to be Dorothy and skip down the path in pretty red shoes. Oh my.
Did finally get that bizarro nail trimmed. Unfortunately she woke up and jerked as I was doing it and now it is bleeding. I hate when I hurt my babies.
Saw a bat today - in the day time. Not my favorite flying creature.
Bought tomatoes from the farmer down the road - tons of them. And a big fat spider was in the bag too. I didn't even have to pay extra for him. I could have probably stir-fried him and we could have each had 2 legs. At that point I will go vegetarian.

LOL, I would liked to have seen the look on that kid's face. I have an appointment tomorrow to get Willa chipped, etc. Didn't take long to figure out that might be a good idea. That extra dew claw thing is freaky!
