You are asking for it, if you ask me

Hey you lazy people who have no respect for other people’s property, listen up! You have been warned, but the poop is still coming from your dogs and landing by my house. Couldn't you just pick it up? I went out this morning and I saw just as much poop as I picked up yesterday.

Now it’s time for revenge. I know for a fact that what I’m going to do is going to affect one or more of you. If I hear that someone got caught by my revenge trap, I will really get a big laugh out of it.

I have to point out, I love dogs. I’ve owned dogs all my adult life so far, so I wouldn’t do anything to hurt a dog of someone else.

Here is my warning. Every morning and night I’m going to put a chunk of fresh meat on my lawn. There will be something in the meat that will not hurt the dogs but it will give them a little bit of diarrhea. Won't that be a surprise for you to get up in the morning with a nice big mess to clean up? Especially if you have a nice big carpet in your living room with the mess on it. The only thing I hope is that you’re mature enough not to blame the dog because you’re the one that would have brought that on by being disrespectful of other peoples’ property.

So my warning is clean up your act or take a chance of a big mess.

This is unbelievable.

This might be hard for some people to digest, but it happened to me and I had to write about it. I used to own a pitbull. She was a female and her name was Cindy. I had to have her put down because she had worms in the flesh and nothing could be done about it because she was too far gone by the time I noticed that there was something wrong. I kept on giving her bath after bath thinking that she had fleas. It didn’t matter what kind of shampoo I used to kill the non-existent fleas it just didn’t do any good.

I decided to take her down to the animal hospital and when the veterinarian checked her he told me what was wrong with her.  Then he said that he could give her some medicine but that I would be wasting my money as she was too far gone. My only recourse was to have her put down. Instead of prolonging her suffering I agreed to have her put down. About an hour later my dog was gone from this forsaken world.

I got that dog from a friend of mine when she was only three months old and she was 13 years old when I had to get her put down. I have had lots of dogs (and I still do because I love dogs as they are your best friend in the world). When I go to bed at night, there is one thing I don’t like is to cover are my feet, they have to be left uncovered and when I had my Cindy she used to lick my feet every night especially my toes.

I now have a mixed pitbull and a dachshund and both sleep on my bed at night.  They don’t get out of bed until I do. A couple of nights ago, I went to bed as usual and fell asleep.  Later I got woken up by a dog licking my feet. I thought maybe it was the pitbull or my wiener dog but when I looked both of them were sleeping. Then my thoughts fell on my Cindy, I figured she had come back to lick my toes like she used to do. Believe me or not it made me very happy thinking that even in death, my dog still missed me.

I must say that if someone would have come to me with a story like that I wouldn’t have believed it. Now that it happened to me I would believe it. I guess it only stands to reason that they must have a soul like we do as some of them are just as smart as some humans and they can think. How many times have you heard about a dog or cat saving someone from some tragedy like a fire or drowning or from being attacked by another human? Or its guardian got lost in a bush somewhere, injured, but they can’t move and his/her dog went and got help?

I think of there are human spirits or ghost if you prefer calling them that.  So why couldn’t there be spirits from some animals like a pet cat or dog? These animals become part of a family and when something happens to one them then we a worry about it as if it were a kid because they have become part of the family.

Ignorant people

Yes, I wrote ignorant people and once you have read this you will know what I mean. 

In Quebec we have Videotron for  telephone and cable service. In September 2009, my dog got really sick so I called the people that took care of the telephone services hired by Videotron. The lady working as the operator came on and I asked her the telephone number for the Hull veterinarian hospital and she asked "What’s the name of the  hospital?”"

I answered "animal hospital". 

Then she said "I need a name" 

And I said "lady it’s a hospital for animals and there is only one of them here."

I hung up because she still insisted on a name. I could not convince her that it was called the animal hospital.

The result of that frustrating conversation, perhaps not directly but certainly it was a contributing factor, was that my dog died.  I did not have transportation to bring her down to the animal hosptial, but they would have sent someone over like they had done for my neighbor's dog. They might have been able to save her or put her out of her misery because she was really suffering.  

It still bothers me.

At the time I even called the police  and explained what was happening then I asked them to see if they could come and shoot her because she was suffering and they said no that they could not do that. .

The following Monday I called Videotron and explained what had happened and the answer they gave me was that they had had enough complaints about that company so they'd have to get someone else. I don’t think they did because today Tuesday I called wanting to know the telephone number for the Hull hospital here in Hull and the woman that answered wanted the name of the place I was asking for.  I think they still kept the same people but I finally did get a number after yelling at them.

Now these people might of been trained but I think they fell asleep while training and were not tested on what they were supposed to have been trained and if they would of been tested some of them would have been on welfare.

That’s my rant of the day.

Greedy landlord

I'm posting today about what I call greedy landlords. The greedy ones are the ones that will lease a basement apartment to anyone without any regard for the safety of the tenant and are asking top price.
