    Hey look like I goofed.

    Are you still looking for a sister for Lolo? They would have a good time playing. In the warm sunshine.

    Wonder how Lexie is doing?

    For some reason when I read the title of this thread I thought of this guy:

    Hey all! We got another 2 inches of snow yesterday...I'm ready for Spring. We've had at least one 'major' snow every month since December-this is Georgia we're supposed to get 1 snow during winter...not one every 3-4 weeks, ugh. :grumble:

    Snow has been crazy this year. We actually broke a 100 year old record in Central Ohio. It's supposed to be in the upper 40's this weekend and I am SOOO Excited. Hopefully some of this snow melts and Lois can play in her backyard soon!

    Calicat, my husband and I adopted him from a family we found on petfinder.com. They just had another baby and didn't have enough attention for Toste. It was love at first sight!! He was perfect for us. We decided to keep his name that his original owners had given him because he is 6 years old and so used to that name, besides it's unique which makes it even better.

    I love little Jacks!! We had one that got into so much trouble we called her the dog with 9 lives. She had been pulled out of a groundhog hole(almost suffocated), SHE hit a car , got in a fight with a deer and had stiches, got in a fight with another dog and got stiches, pulled off two toenails digging and fell in a hole under a brush pile went missing and the kids found her and had to dig her out.
    She was given to us but she turned out to be the most expensive "free'' dog I have ever owned. We tried our best to keep her out of trouble but she always found it. It's like having a 2 year old child who never gets past that stage-cute and lovable but such a handful. Oh how I loved that dog!

    Toste seems to go through chew toys within mere seconds. Even the toys that are "indestructible" don't last very long. Does anyone have suggestions on a toy that may last him a little longer?

    Have you tried the firehose toy? It took ours about 4 months to get though it...that's very long time in JRT time. Here's a link...

    I know how you feel here! I hate to spend $10 on a toy that she will chew up in 5 minutes. Plus, I don't want her swallowing the rubber or whatever the toy is made of. Lois's toys are tennis balls, raw hide bones, and her favorite is a basketball. I stop by Goodwill sometimes and find some stuffed animals that I can take the stuffing out of and let her play with that until it is ripped up.

    Rope toys are a BIG NO NO... she pulls the strings and swallows them and then... yeah, you know.

    I totally agree on the sunshine! It was almost 60* yesterday...although we are supposed to have storms on Sunday, grr...I guess that just means that I have to do all my gardening tomorrow. I'm sure my pups will help out with that...they love to go to ground.
