This part of Oklahoma is very rural, and farm dogs are necessary for safety. Animals can be our friends but they also have there jobs just like the rest of us. If you choose to keep your animals in the house thats great, but don't belittle those of us who don't. I know the Diva takes great care of her animals and just because she chooses not to treat them like children, doesn't mean she doesn't love them.taterbug76http://www.blogger.com/profile/15911161289445140605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-13618963535209542322008-09-06T17:28:00.000-05:002008-09-06T17:28:00.000-05:00I think the dog paid.Pennyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10972692199686815560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-37372206781112905642008-09-06T14:14:00.000-05:002008-09-06T14:14:00.000-05:00Okay, so was that neighbor the culprit?

I'm so sorry. That lady that was "clocked in by 7:30"?? TOTALLY GOSH-DARNED LIED HER PRETTY LITTLE HEAD OFF AND SHE NEEDS TO BE SPANKED.<BR/><BR/>Hey-lookit! I'm angry for you and not cussing a bit. How cool is that? <BR/><BR/>I did have to try really hard, though.Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06066499436533594138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-52250027562350471682008-09-05T15:28:00.000-05:002008-09-05T15:28:00.000-05:00Penny, to clarify a few things: <BR/><BR/>We live on a dirt road, not a street. Country dogs explore - the ditch, the road, the fence, the trashcan, the universe. <BR/><BR/>I hit a rabbit awhile back and that rabbit was probably 1/3 the size of Biscuit - I knew immediately I had hit it. I cannot believe that they didn't realize they had hit him. Plus, the fact that it threw him in the air....well, how to miss the black and brown beagle flying in front of your car?<BR/><BR/>And lastly, living off the road we actually have never had a dog get hit ON the road, physics, reality or whatever be danged. Poor Jude was hit when my ex brother-in-law was running late for work and came up the driveway a little too fast and hit Jude in our yard. <BR/><BR/>I appreciate honesty, but sometimes, when emotions are raw, honesty is a little too brutal. But thanks for commenting.Redneck Divahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13506685036989431733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-65078180842479862932008-09-05T14:51:00.000-05:002008-09-05T14:51:00.000-05:00When dogs wander near the road, especially on a foggy morning, they are likely to get hit. Blame the laws of physics and reality. Yeah, the driver shouldn't have been going fast but it is not like it went in the ditch and got the dog. At the risk of offending you, I will tell you straight - the driver who may not even have seen the dog or realize what it hit. Eveyone and their brother is going to tell you how terrible that driver was. Maybe so, but this never would have happened if the poor dog had not been wandering near a foggy street. Since you've had dogs hit, before, you already know this. <BR/><BR/>I assume a good ole Redneck can take it with good grace when someone shoots straight. <BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry the kids saw that.Pennyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10972692199686815560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-22205857755984503982008-09-05T14:41:00.000-05:002008-09-05T14:41:00.000-05:00I got friends in low places.....just sayin....mrscoachnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-76181362395748128552008-09-05T14:27:00.000-05:002008-09-05T14:27:00.000-05:00O.M.G! I am so sorry that your kids had to witness that. What a JERK! I hope that the kids are able to pick out the car that hit Biscuit. If nothing else, at least you will KNOW who did it. <BR/><BR/>Thank God no children were hit!The Real Kiddhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02287735475277628279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-27291260984375162342008-09-05T13:28:00.000-05:002008-09-05T13:28:00.000-05:00I am mad right along with you!!<BR/>Being a redneck originally from Alabama, my first instinct is to get my daddy to take care of them (I am 38 yo, go figure). You know, the daddy that's a gun collector (he could just scare them) and can cuss a blue streak (at least when I was a kid) and can make good on almost any threat (at least I believed that when I was a kid!).<BR/>Idiots just drive me nuts, and if it was this woman, she is a class A idiot.<BR/>I hope that the dog is all right, but like you, I am not much of a dog fanatic. Meaning, I worry more about the effect on the kids more!<BR/>I hope that your day improves!!<BR/>JannaBlondiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16486807986161288074noreply@blogger.com
