The Dog House

Yes, we even gave our dogs there own page. Jetta has a special place in our hearts, and had a wonderful 12 years with us.
On November 22, 2002 we made a very hard decision and put our Jetta to rest.
We could no longer let her live in arthritic pain, and hated to see her not be able to get up at times.

Cleaning out the peanut butter jar.	She LOVED the snow (crazy dog).
Jetta, the ferocious watchdog!
Jetta and Heidi. Heidi makes snow her second home. Jetta acted like a pup again when Heidi came to live with us in June of 2000, and they played hard.
Heidi sleeping. Too bad we don't have a video of her dreaming and barking.
Heidi was such a good girl to pose like this for me, just before she decided to run down the street and greet a couple of kids.
After 9-11 a local service man went to Saudi Arabia, and his wife needed to reduce the number of dogs they had. Knowing of Jetta's age we thought we would give Micki a good home, and a pal for Heidi to play with.
Everyone who sees Micki thinks she is a Lab. Only her head can be mistaken for a Lab, but not her body.
I am certain Micki is crossed with a German Shorthair Pointer. We did not name her, but I think her name came from the movie "Mickey Blue Eyes".

Things a Dog Needs to Learn for His-Her Own Good

I should not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.

The garbage collector is NOT stealing our stuff.

I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table.

It's not a good idea to roll my toys behind the fridge.

To keep my humans happy: I must shake the rainwater out of my fur BEFORE entering the house.

I will not eat the cats' food, before or after they eat it.

I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of clean carpet in the house when I am about to throw up.

I will not throw up in the car.

I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc.

I will not lick my human's face after eating animal poop.

I will not eat any more socks and then redeposit them in the backyard after processing.

I will not see the diaper pail as a cookie jar.

I will not wake Mommy up by sticking my cold, wet nose on her bottom end.

I will not chew my human's toothbrush and not tell them.

I will not chew crayons or pens, especially not the red ones, or my people will think I am hemorrhaging.

When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it's raining outside.

We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on TV.

I will not steal my Mom's underwear and dance all over the back yard with it.

The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom & Dad's laps.

My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and car registration.

Jetta's Hero - She's Bo's biggest fan!!
