[04:37] <Cheri703> rawr rawr rawr
[04:40] <canthus13> hi.
[04:40] <Cheri703> HELLO
[04:41] <Cheri703> I AM BORED
[04:41] <Cheri703> A LOT
[04:41] <canthus13> Heh.
[04:41] <Cheri703> AAAAAAAAAAAA LLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTT
[04:41] <Cheri703> also wanting something to munch on but trying to convince myself not to go foraging
[04:42] <Cheri703> My new dog dryer should arrive tomorrow :)
[04:43] <canthus13> A dog dryer? You mean tumble dryers can't be repurposed?
[04:43] <Cheri703> my dogs would probably try, and after this morning, I was tempted (2 of 3 busted out the back door and were gone for an hour >_<)
[04:45] <Cheri703> well, I have shoulder/wrist stupidity, and so brushing 3 dogs  (1 that has a major undercoat situation going on, one that has a minor one, and one that doesn't seem to shed when you pet her, but then her bed is covered in hair) enough to keep them from shedding everywhere is ...hard. I ordered a high velocity dryer so it will remove all/most of the loose hair with WAAAAAY less effort on my part
[04:45] <Cheri703> and will help to keep the house cleaner and the dogs happier/cleaner
[04:46]  * canthus13 nods.
[04:47] <Cheri703> I can spend an hour brushing Charlie (the furriest one), get like a small puppy's worth of hair out, then bathe her, then brush again and get just as much, then go back 20 minutes later, give her a good pet/rub session, and be getting handfuls of hair :s
[04:48] <canthus13> Wow.  Ever consider shaving her during the summer?
[04:48] <Cheri703> sooo...going on the porch and scaring the crap out of them for ~10 minutes with the blower = good
[04:48] <Cheri703> she's not like...shaveable...
[04:48] <canthus13> Heh.
[04:48] <canthus13> Ah.
[04:48] <Cheri703> it's sort of like a retriever coat
[04:48] <Cheri703> not like a chow or husky or something
[04:48] <canthus13> My parents have a labradoodle that they shave every May.
[04:48] <canthus13> He's got an odd mix of lab and poodle fur.
[04:49] <Cheri703> heh, yeah, I used to have to drive to my (terrible) bosses' house, and there was a dog I'd see in the yard, it was winter when I started going, then when it got warm, suddenly he was WAY smaller/skinnier after he was shaved :)
[04:49] <Cheri703> yeah, labradoodles can come out in a variety of textures
[04:49] <canthus13> The weird part is that he doesn't shed. at all.
[04:49] <Cheri703> that's the poodle part
[04:50] <Cheri703> poodles don't shed, that's why they're considered "hypoallergenic" even though they aren't actually
[04:50] <canthus13> just grows and grows... I thought they should give him cornrows instead.
[04:50] <Cheri703> get a komodor
[04:50] <canthus13> Heh. Too high maintenence.
[04:50] <Cheri703> I like wash and go dogs
[04:50] <canthus13> I want some sort of 'pit bull'  like an american bulldog, mebbe.
[04:50] <Cheri703> mine are overall, they just shed so much :s if I had kids, that would ABSOLUTELY be their job each night/week
[04:51] <Cheri703> homeowner's insurance = insane if you have a bully breed. if you rent, even harder
[04:51] <Cheri703> some cities ban them as a whole
[04:51] <canthus13> yeh.. Cocker spaniels are the worst biters by the numbers, though. :/
[04:51] <Cheri703> yeah, for sure
[04:51] <Cheri703> I'm a fan of pits and bully breeds
[04:52] <Cheri703> just...other people arent :/
[04:52] <Cheri703> the city of toronto will take and euthanize, regardless (from what I've read)
[04:52] <canthus13> Toledo's ok about them.. but you can get fined pretty bad if your bull is off-leash.
[04:52] <Cheri703> I'd imagine
[04:52] <Cheri703> they're technically banned here (I think) but they're all over the place
[04:52] <Cheri703> *pits specifically
[04:52] <canthus13> I think they have a one-strike rule about them, too.
[04:53] <canthus13> the problem in Toledo is that there are an awful lot of them bred for fighting. :/
[04:54] <Cheri703> haha, on my "clancy's cheese curls crunchy" (aldi brand), it says "50% less fat than leading national brand's fried crunchy cheese curls" hooray not being able to use the actual name! (though if they are sold in more than one english speaking country, it may be easier to do that)
[04:54] <Cheri703> :/ yeah
[04:55] <canthus13> Oh.. my parents just picked up the ugliest boston terrier I've ever seen.  the right side of his head looks like he was hit with a hammer and dragged along at 50mph on it.
[04:55] <canthus13> (Deformed, not abused.)
[04:56] <canthus13> Named him Picasso... 'coz his face looks like a picasso painting. :P
[04:56] <canthus13> Poor dog sounds like a pot-bellied pig.
[04:58] <Cheri703> heh
[05:01] <Cheri703> I'm going to have an exciting time trying to move eventually with 3 dogs...husband *might* be taking one when he goes, it kind of depends on where he finds a place
[05:03] <canthus13> I drove 1200 miles with a carsick dog when I moved up here. :/
[05:03] <canthus13> Ended up shoving a couple of benadryl down her throat.
[05:03] <canthus13> that wasn't fun. :P
[05:33] <Cheri703> yeah, I've been pretty lucky with that, I've never had one that was crazy carsick
