Home Renovations, Rory Style

So I'm sitting in my office, drinking in the quiet of my home. The windows are open, and there's the occasional sound of a car driving by.

Tucker's at my feet, and the girls are downstairs somewhere. I can hear Rory around the corner from my office, lightly knawing on a toy.

"What a good boy," I think. I assume he's chewing on a toy, and praise him. Ian's downstairs doing his homework, so it's nice having the dogs entertain themselves.

I eventually decide to get up and see what Rory is doing.

This dog will be the death of me, I swear.

Anyone want a Border Collie? Knows basic commands. Can retrieve newspaper. Loves to slather you in kisses after eating chihuahua poop.

Anyone?!? C'mon!

  3. Oh no! Try investing in some of that bitter apple spray. I've never used it but know people who have and they swear it works. To be safe I would spray it on any and all corners of baseboards!

  4. I'm going to spray the area with bitter apple spray tonight... we have a bottle from our past foster dog who had hotspots.

    The chis were such good puppies. Haha. Tucker is only 9 months old, and he hasn't been destructive at all.

    It's hard to believe that Rory is still only a 7 month old puppy... looks like he'll be having 100% supervision from now on!
