What I Believe
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
It is not work that kills men, it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more on a man than he can bear. But worry is rust upon the blade. It is not movement that destroys the machinery, but friction."

Henry Ward Beecher

Selective Hearing

I've said it before; dogs are a lot like people.

 Take selective hearing for instance.  If you've got teens (or toddlers!) you know what selective hearing is all about.  It's about hearing what you want to hear and not hearing what you DON'T want to hear.

This morning, Eve proved that dogs are a lot like people when it comes to selective hearing.  This same dog who "can't hear" when I tell her it's time to go out to go potty in the cold or rain or go to her crate can awaken from a sound sleep when I  open the refrigerator door or crack an egg.

Silly girl. 

Tomorrow's the last day for Rebecca's Dog Days of February, so you better get your post up and your link sent to Rebecca ASAP!
