An unfortunate blight seems to striking our landscaping lately, especially around the pool area. I think this is in direct relation to leaving a gate to the downstairs open. I've been leaving it open because the Weiner has been feeling pretty perky lately and likes to go vermin hunting down the hill. And everyone knows that in the rare instances that an Interior-Dwelling Domestic Weiner ventures outside, the Weiner immediately goes deaf and will not respond to any voice commands. This same Weiner will then sit at the gate later and bark, woof, HOWL-YIP-SCREECH until he has been let in again...
Now there also has been evidence of intruders...
which has resulted in an unfortunate and
highly destructive case of
CAPRINITIS VULGARIS
