2009 Meow Like A Pirate Day!

'Tis time t' Meow Like Pirates again! I be Pirate Willow th' Wicked an' I be ready to ride the seas,
lookin' for treasure.
~~~~~
Later, I be lookin' for Cap'n Mao Fang of the Cat O' Nine Tails. He took over for Cap'n Nels the Cranky who we lost last year, but still hold close in our hearts.
Here is my official Pirate Name:


My pirate name is:


Calico Bess Rackham



Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Afghan Hound

Afghan Hound | dog bathingI guess high pet gates are needed in this tall and hairy dog.

The Afghan Hound is one dog you shouldn't get if you aren't fond of cats.
This is because Afghan Hounds and cats are very similar in terms of personality even though they are of different species. The Afghan Hound is the wrong dog breed for you if you want a dog that is active, goofy and would chase after Frisbees.

Afghan Hound | dog car seatsDon't expect an Afghan Hound to go after a ball and even jump into the water to retrieve it. You'll be better off getting a Golden Retriever or a Black Labrador. A hunting sight hound, the Afghan Hound is very possessive. If it sees anything that moves, the Afghan Hound thinks that it is theirs.

Afghan Hound | retriever trainerIn general, Afghan Hounds can't live with cats or ferrets in the same household although some can. However, keep in mind that regardless of how well trained they are, Afghan Hounds have an unpredictable nature and they tend to rely more on their instinct. For instance, you should never let an Afghan Hound off its leash because once it hones in on a target, you will have a hard time getting it to come back or obey a command.

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever | pet gatesHunting dog collars online was obviously needed at a well-known hunting dog breed like this.

Affectionately known as the "Toller,"
this breed was once called the Little River Duck Dog since it was developed in the Little River district of Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia. This engaging dog is a specialist with waterfowl. Tolling, or luring, is the practice of tricking ducks within gunshot range. Hunters had long observed this behavior in foxes and deliberately bred a small fox-like dog to make use of tolling in their own hunting.

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever | Dog DoorsTollers are powerful, medium-sized sporting dogs, intelligent and keen workers. Males measure 19 to 20 inches at the shoulder and weigh from 45 to 51 pounds; females average one inch less and weigh from 37 to 43 pounds. The coat is medium long with a dense undercoat in red or orange. It may be marked with white on the tip of tail, chest, feet and forehead. The tail is long and heavily coated, and full of action when the dog is tolling. The coat is a true retriever double coat; the harsh outer coat waterproofs while the under coat insulates.

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever | Dog training aidsThe dogs are described as excellent hunters -- some giving their owners a look of disgust if the shot is missed -- willing to work in cold and wet conditions. While the breed was developed for waterfowl, many are used in the upland. They are equally comfortable whether the scent is on the ground or in the air. Well trained dogs hunt close and don't roam, but enthusiasm can easily run away with good field manners! They take well to obedience and some have been used successfully as therapy dogs.

Saturday Caturday Fun for Me

I love to be way up high on top of my refrigerator. That's where my water pitcher is and sometimes I just like to sit up there. The garage door is to my right and when my Food Lady leaves the door open to bring Groceries and Treats into the kitchen, I can see all the way down to the street.
~~~~~
Today I was looking at a fly that came into my kitchen. You can see by my eyes that he is up by the ceiling and too far away for me to pounce on him or swat him down.
Well, I couldn't reach that fly and it is pouring down rain so I don't want to go out in my screened-in porch. My Food Lady decided to make a fantasy picture for me.
~~~~~
See, it's me but now I am outside looking at leaves and a pretty heart-shaped balloon. Maybe it will stop raining soon and I really will go out and see leaves and balloons!

Cocker Spaniel

Cocker Spaniel | Dog gatesYou will definitely hire a remote dog trainer for this little cute dog!

Cocker Spaniels are lively, intelligent dogs that were originally bred as working gundogs. Nowadays the breed is divided into two distinct strains, the show-type and the working type.


Cocker Spaniel  | Dog housesFew show-type cockers are actually trained to the gun, but they have still retained many of their instincts. They make very good companions and family pets provided they are given careful training and socialisation as youngsters.

Cocker Spaniel  | dog training aidsAs previously mentioned, careful training and socialisation of Cocker Spaniels is essential. As they are lively and intelligent, if left to their own devices, they may quickly develop behavioural problems. They are not a dog that can be left on their own for long periods of time, when they may become disruptive and destructive. They are not a suitable pet if you are out at work all day.
