Satire (noun)
1. The use of wit, especially irony, sarcasm, and ridicule, to criticize faults.
2. A literary work that uses satire or the branch of literature made up of such works.
This definition brought to you by Encarta Dictionary: English (North America) sounds official doesn’t it? Actually, it comes bundled with Microsoft Word. Aint it cool getting something free?
From the “For what it’s worth department” This blog was never intended to be ANYTHING but a tongue in cheek look at a novice raising his first litter. It’s not supposed to be particularly accurate from a clinical standpoint, and it’s certainly not educational. There are a million web sites, and books out there at your disposal. I would be more than happy to post a few links to Amazon.com for books I purchased. They have a GREAT humor section too. *hint-hint*
And on a side note, my father never laid a hand on me. He never had to. I was a perfect son who got all “A’s” on his report card, dated the head cheerleader, was on the honor roll, honor society, honor system, prom king, captain of the football team, hockey team, baseball team, Church volunteer, cub scout, boy scout, eagle scout. This explains why I weld pipe for a living.
Now. On to the pups. We wormed the little guys Thursday. If I live to be 100 years old, it will be ok if I never see that again. Ugh. Dawn was so disgusted this became “Mans work” That’s ok. Dishes are “Women’s work” along with cooking, cleaning, vacuuming, housekeeping, etc. (When she reads this, I’m dead)
We have had a lot of children come over to see the pups. The neighbors have a one year old, and she couldn’t decide if she liked the pups, me, or the Payless shoe box. So much for THAT social experiment.
The pups respond well to everyone. I have no benchmark to compare them to, I’m NEW, REMEMBER!! But to me, they all seem like life is one big spring break. (Minus the Jimmy Buffett tripe)
I gotta run. Boji is crying, the pups are whining, the resident dogs are barking, Dawn needs help,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Great to be back. I am going to start posting photos on here also. We have three resident Dals, and a Mini-Wire Dachshund. They are ALL affected by this litter, and will all get a pic or two on here along with the pups.
