Pets are people too, even if they have twice as many legs and
(usually) more body hair than the other members of the family. Having
our pets outdoors with us can add to our enjoyment and it can help to
keep them fit and healthy.

Today, I'll share some ideas about incorporating "pet friendly"
features into your landscape. But what about the, uh, less pleasant
aspect of what happens when dogs and lawns get together?

What if a neighbor took a crap on your lawn every day? What would you do?
Incorporate slob-friendly features into your landscape? No. Of course
not. You'd call the police. Why would you want to make concessions for an
animal that serves no purpose other than to make a mess and **** off your
neighbors?

our dog timex goes across the road for all his *business*!

don't worry joe, our closest neighbor is at least a mile away, directly
across the road is nothing but woods........



You named your dog after a company that makes ugly watches? :-)



he is my husband's dog. had him before we ever got together (my dog was
mattie, but she died a few months ago).

he was given the name timex because when he was a puppy, they watched
him get hit by a truck, and roll up and down the truck tires. you know
the old phrase about the watches, right?

*took a lick'n and kept on tickin'*

so that's how he got the name
