Another thing to consider is the breed's basic temperament. I have Pomeranians because I love their sense of humor--always joking, looking for a laugh. Almost always friendly to strangers, unless the strangers should not be trusted anyway. In turn, I put up with a lot of unnecessary barking...

For me, the dog food has become pricey, but the VET bills! Holy cow! Last year their medical costs exceeded mine.

Hi C, This is a well-known scam among folks who use Craigslist regularly. CL warns its users not to do deals that way. Always do business with local people, always cash only. Unless you are bartering, of course, but that is different subject.

<giggle>. Yes, the government folks are usually the least helpful when the chips are down. I think some of the "refugees" might have bicycles. But after the major earthquakes, we found most people to be more helpful to each other than they would have been under normal circumstances. If you watch...

Hi Soul Raven, I used to have a dog named Zeke. Anyway, once you get to a place where you can get internet, you might find a couple of Youtube channels that are helpful. One is Patrick Teahan's channel, and the other is Anna Runkle's "The Crappy Childhood Fairy." Patrick Teahan has many useful...

The guy that owns the shop where I take my car for maintenance and repairs has been trying to hire a mechanic for months. He is offering $100K annually and can't find anyone.

D'L if you seriously research what Roundup does to the body, you would eat organic. At least stuff that gets sprayed a lot: green leafies, anything growing above the ground, berries, etc. Put in your search term the word "scholarly," and you will get genuine research on it.

He said he was ONCE trying to figure out how to support his wife and kids. I think that implies a past circumstance that is no longer the case.

You should have a trusted person who has a copy of your will. My accountant and sister each have one. That way if I became incapacitated and couldn't tell them where to find the original, if it burned with me in a fire, someone would have it.
