I still think we're over the hump though. :-) <br /><br />No idea about the snake. <br /><br />Delilah has gotten much better passing barking dogs too. Usually a quick leave it works for me and then a treat of course. :-)Jodihttp://www.heartlikeadog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-20131067868176717282014-04-14T18:45:00.939-04:002014-04-14T18:45:00.939-04:00I was shocked, today she barely even LOOKED at oth...I was shocked, today she barely even LOOKED at other dogs. Just looked at them and looked back to me for the hotdogs. Maybe she doesn't care about other dogs anymore? Maybe it was the fact we were using leftover Hebrew National All Beef Franks?

Big dogs like Elka can survive being bitten by a rattlesnake, but they sure do get sick, from what I've heard (and still really need to go to the vet IMMEDIATELY!)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10562151546770315227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938120942169485220.post-3524010795925656712014-04-14T18:43:32.807-04:002014-04-14T18:43:32.807-04:00It really makes me sad when people kill animals fo...It really makes me sad when people kill animals for no reason. Even using mouse traps in the house, which is at odds with not wanting mice in the house. A little big of cognitive dissonance there, I guess.
