"I'm
having SUCH a bad hair day" |

| This
is one of the latest Nugget pictures, doing what she is almost
always doing. The procedure is: Go into the woods and get a
stick, bring the stick to the front lawn and chew it up, go
back to the woods for another stick, etc., etc. |

| "Baby
Nugget comes home from Rhode Island breeder" |
Unlike
many women, Nugget travels light: she has her purse, and is
ready to go. |

Thanks to
a suggestion from Mark, Nugget is now having a much easier
time of eating. She used to occasionally get food caught in
her throat, but with this elevated feeding station the problem
has been eliminated.
I measured
her front legs from the chest down, and made the "table"
at that height. A scroll saw to cut out the openings for two
stainless bowls from Petco, and we were in business. I used
scrap wood and leftover stain / polyurethane, and paid about
$12 for the two bowls. A commerical one was $30, so I saved
about $18!
Great idea,
Mark!

It seems to
be a fairly common thing for Golden Retrievers to have a stuffed
animal for a toy, and Nugget is no exception. The first thing
she does - ALWAYS - is bite off the nose and remove the stuffing.
The first
one we got her was actually a bunny so now we call them ALL
bunnies to simplify things. We'll tell her to "go get
your bunny" and she always knows where it is, and brings
it back to us.
