Its been about 2 weeks now that I have been letting her out in the shop with me while I work on my RCs. Its great to have some playful company.

Well tonight I needed to go do backyard doody duty so off I went. What I found was amazing!!! EVERY LITTLE PART I THOUGHT I LOST. Embedded the little Lincoln Logs I found 4-5 orange shock gaskets, several assorted nuts and bolts, 2 shock standoffs from long ago sold RCs, and of all things a servo horn.

All in all I wold say its was about as good as a trip to the hobby store.

Beason, You need the standoffs and a bottom spring retainer for throes shocks I sent las week?
 
ROFLMAO!!!!

You know the sad part about this; I've lived this exact scenario myself. It's really weird when you find a-arms and tie-rods.
 
Too funny Ed, that servo horn must have hurt on the way out the pooper. Did you throw them in the ultrasonic cleaner? Better yet take pictures of them a la poo and put them up for sale on ebay. You'll make millions!
 
My black lab swallowed a golf ball once.. Took him to the vet and we were suppose to mix castor oil in with his dog food, and then follow him around (Kinda impossible since he was a outside dog) but I didnt happen to catch him dumpin this out. Was quite the site..lol
 
The dog will also scoop the cat crap out of the cat box too saving you time.

Then your dogs doody will be formed out of cat litter.
 
Yeah Jet I thought about Cheech and Chong when I first read the post.

Actually thought about Eddy claiming the dog on his taxes when I first saw the title. It is that time of year.
Sounds like the little dog has made a nice addition to the family. There should be an easier way to organize the RC parts though. :)
 
yea eddy i could use those parts, but I'm not sure i want them now.

poor little guy having to pass a servo horn. its a wonder he didnt sound like a fog horn mid pewp.
 
The pup is great. She brings a lot of love to us as well as humor. I still have to watch her like a hawk to help get rid of any bad habits she may be learning.

I watch her when shes out doing her business. After she dumps she does what I call the "Tail Pump". As shes pitching it off her tail does just that. Whats cool is that she has a 2" white tip on the end of her tail and shes mostly black. At night all I can see is the white tip. When I see the tip bob up and down 2 or more times I know she did her job and the paper work is done.

I'm considering a dab of glow in the dark paint to make it easier.
 
That's too funny. Mystery solved, eh?

Tail pump, yeah, they all have their version of it. My Springer had her tail bobbed, but she gave it a few slow flicks up and down when she was done, too.

She also kept the downstairs cat pan clean, licked up any cat puke, and (I have a bad habit of this) when I would spit, she would lick it up. When we had a rabbit, there always was a mound about 6 inches deep under the hutch cage and she would eats gobs of that stuff. Weird diet.
 
Shudder! Some days I miss that dog, and then some days I don't...

Ed, Skype did the same thing, again. I'm going to see if they have a help line.
