I'd like to say thank you to our furry K-9's for protecting us from being murdered.

These furry pups have saved us from serial killing mail people or packages delivery personnel over the years . MR Big paws is 14 and Boog the chocolate lab is 12 they no longer feel it necessary to protect us as they did in their youth reason is they both have aged and become older arthritic and hard of hearing.

So they have passed the torch of guard dog to Dunk pup the golden retriever who is a great protector of his pack / hoomans. Dunk is terrified of the new remote control for the television.

If we even use it the new remote control and point it at the television Dunk pup becomes unglued and starts barking hackles raised. I told the boys I am wondering if dunk pup is a Luddite I’ll probably call our vets in morning to ask.

Told her I had 2 dogs. Next day she brought milk bones. Alex the Wonder Dog & Duke sold them selves to her.

The cats however, give hard eye to the mail carrier.

I'm a dead woman.

But, i do think she'd be sad afterwards, so there is that. LOL

Maybe 7 lbs of mini-cockapoo with a LOUD bark. She too guards the house especially from those threatening Amazon delivery folks. She even warns the family when she sees her MomMom.
