Don't think they would like the taste of New York Dog.

"Pampered Pooch "??? Just because I buy him a box of new dog toys and he gets a bowl of whole milk in the morning with his breakfast , does not mean he is "Pampered"

He is well loved and well taken care of.

How many dogs do you know that have their own Medical Insurance ??

You best keep him down there. I don't recall seeing a pet cemetary up here although there easily could be one in Talkeetna.

Must be if he has you waiting on him hand and foot like that. Doesn't say much for the owners intelligence, though.......

i would not go so far as to blame the system.
I place more blame with parents...
parents who
a. never read to their kids or help them with homework or engage with them other than giving them a movie or nintendo.
b. who have no right raising off spring in the first place

my friends have many children and one can go from family to family and see the difference in childrens level of intelligence, and draw a direct correlation to said intelligence by observing the home life of the children. seems the ones who are "smarter" have parents who read to / with, do homework with, take their kids to museums and educational trips, and answer the kids questions,

to those who let their kids run rampant, do not do homework or spend time teaching their children and give them games and tvs so they are out of sight out of mind...
and yes, they ALL go to the same school....and are or are near the same ages.......heck one guys 7 yr old is 10x's smarter than another 12 yr old....

Frankly, I could care less about the "dumb" ones, as the kids whose parents teach them are going to have a nice adavantage in life... they can't all be brain surgeons, we need ditch diggers and garbage men too..

Keep all your NY ideas there.... fix your own backyard instead of moving your junk to ours...

Now, Huperduper...

Did I say ANYTHING???? about bringing NY ways of living to AK ??

The answer is NO!!!!!!

Yes, I have the vehicle repaired by a mechanic. Those blasted things have so much computerized gizmos in them and so much junk piled on top of the engine, that a mechanic is a necessity! (My mechanic charges $85.00 an hour! So, I do know the high cost of some important items!! )

When I leave NY, I leave the NY way of living back in NYS !!

AS FOR MY GERMAN SHORTHAIR POINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!.................


What can I say... I am my dog's Humble Servant!!

cool looking dog all we are saying about the mechanic thing is you have to drive a long ways to get anywere and a tow is real spendy here so knowing how your vehicle works is a must i was a mechanic up here for quite a while and we charged $120 an hour and we were one of the cheaper places.

yum row on a cream cheese bagel you get that yourself or store bought.
