Just a word of warning to those who haven't had a tetanus jab
lately.
Please keep up to date! Those working with sharp implements and/or
delving
into the soil need them. My husband tried to separate two of our
dogs
having a fight last Friday and got bitten on his left hand.

Aaah the joys of dog ownership! I know it well. I find a foot
covered with a strong leather boot put between their chests with a
hefty sideways motion often works well. I learned long ago that hands
and dog's fangs don't make a good combo in this situation.

It's damned Jack Russells and a wire haired Dachshund that's the problem!
One Jackie and Oscar the whd, are tussling it out for who's leader of the
pack - or who is second in the pack. Oscar is entire, the JRs aren't but it
seems to make no difference to the JRs in terms of sheer bloody mindedness.
Love them both as I do, I will never have two together again!
They *love* people, even if they bark like demons and mostly, they love each
other but occasionally these furious outbursts happen over the classic "who
goes first through the door?"!

Poor man. I hope he's beginning to feel better Sacha.

Thanks so much. Slowly mending and I hope the overnight hospital stay is
going to do the trick.
