I'm going to pull on my veterinary hat and regard your husband as just another dog.

Uh oh, this doesn't sound good. All that food in a short period of time, constant hunger, and zero weight gain? 'tain't normal! I'm thinking a few medical conditions, all serious, that can cause this cluster of signs. Have you dragged your husband to the Dr. lately? Especially after the way you lost your ex.

Sorry to be such a downer, but I find such behavior/clinical signs to be unfunny after nineteen years of seeing pets too late for me to help.

He's very tall, and has quite large feet. I just figured all that food filtered down those long legs and couldn't get back up again, so settled into his feet.

Besides, he bites if I try to put a leash on him. (Seriously, he isn't one to be controlled at all)

Is there a chance he has Marfan's syndrome?



Honey, that's what muzzles are for. It works long enough to get him anesthesized for neutering and a nice big slug of Valium. Only problem with valium, it makes him even hungrier! It's like pot that way.

Absolutely not. His frame is perfectly proportionate, his upper palate formed correctly, his wrists strong, arms the proper length - he is just tall.

The genetic factors in which they determine Marfan's are physically distinctive and visually able to be detected with the naked eye as quasi-simian features - my husband fits none of the criteria.








BOLD: Neutering? GAAAAAH!!! ... GAAAAAH !!! ... URK !!!!



Although I can't deny once or twice that the image of bark collar may have flitted across my mind when he was chattering on and on while I was trying to concentrate on something...or shouting at the top of his lungs when his team scored (while watching the game on his tivo at 3 a.m.) ... ...

ROFL !!!

You know what they say about big feet...I wish I had big feet Alas, the future MrsOtherRick will have to settle for my size 9's.

Eh, they just keep him from blowing over in a windstorm (or act as a ground in a lightning storm). His balance is amazing, while I have small feet and stumble on pebbles and feathers.

Big socks? Regular socks probably fit in the drawer better.

Now that is the truth - His are knee socks on me.

I'm in the same boat. Wrothken often compares my socks to baby booties. His go up to or just past my knee.

Oh, I can WELL imagine that! As tiny as you are and massive as Wrothken is ... his socks may be "thigh-highs" on you. - I like having big socks like that to wear in the winter too, there is nothing so comfortable !!

I got a kick out of the "baby booties," ROFL !!!

Which leads me to think:

Tiny girls and BIG men
will carve our a wide....

..ahem.


Another typical DFoxy Post.

While Bill Clinton tunnels in from the side.

O reply not with comments snide!

When asked by Linda to describe,
Monica promptly replied
"... - Oh no, I see a censorship is near
Or one of our Mods we hold so dear
So this poem has to go unspoken
Before my membership here is broken.

Drat, it was a good one, too!

Porch season has arrived. Heading there with my wine.

Yes it has! The Dogwoods are blooming early here in the south - beautiful !!!

Nice photo there mALXie. Me thinks ya might need to downsize it a little though. Dogwoods, Bradford Pears, and Myrtles are blooming here. It was t-shirt weather at work. 78 (F) here today! LOVE IT!!

Turned 23 today. Not a particularly significant number, I suppose. Unless you're Jim Carrey. But yeah, it's been going well so far.

Happy Birthday!! How did we miss that on the main forum page? Hope it is a great one !!!!

Er, how do I downsize it? I turned it into a link, you'll have to edit your quote of it for the page to go back down to the proper size, lol. Sorry about that, the pic is not that big when you see it on the web, but for some reason when embedded here it grew to giant proportions ... er ... why did an image of Foxy pop into my mind?

When Foxy talks of mALXie's trees, his bamboo shoots skyward to resemble a Lombardy Poplar! Let us hope he finds no need to photosynthesize, least he plant the seeds for the latest shrub!

There better not be a shrub develop, lol.

WHAT?

I leave the forum for FIVE SECONDS, and it turns out into a discussion of how big my banana is???

Tsk tsk tsk...

...


some people have dhertee minds...



...


can't imagine who corrupted them!

ROFL !!!! Not me, I'm innocent !!! (hey, where is that emoticon with the halo?)

I hope it's still going well, and Happy Belated Birthday. I seem to recall 23 as being one of the really good ones.

I seem to have lost 23 in the haze of my wilder and not too well thought out youth. As a matter of fact, a LOT of the 80's are a bit blurry...

But Happy Birthday just the same

Hello again, seems like a while since I checked by. RL is being annoying, as seems to be it's habit, still I should have more free time now to catch up with things.

Great pic mALX.

Happy belated b'day BBQ.

Yeah Olen !!! Thanks, wish I'd known it would be huge before it got quoted though, lol. RL has been annoying here too, but without enough free time to catch up, lol. Glad to see you back !!

Well...the Rickster and his mate are going to have a night in. No bars, clubs, or DUIs...We are headed to a safe bar...a blues room on PalTalk... I have a bottle of pinot and a playlist of good blues...it's chillaxin time!

Say Rick, can you go edit your post with my picture of Dogwoods in it - just remove the from the link so this thread will go back down to a normal size? (please?) [insert large puppy-dog eyes here]

Your wish is my command, m'lady....consider it done

Ah, thank you !!! I had typed in the little code commands for image, but it edited them out of the text in my comment, (so glad you figured out what I was asking anyway, lol). It is much easier to view the previous page now, thanks! (and sorry about that, it was really much smaller when I was viewing it on the internet, lol.) <3

Word from one of my mother's friends. One of her dogs is seriously ill; there is a high probability that he might die.

Please extend your hopes and prayers to Jordie. He needs you right now.

What a shame, Thomas. I so hope Jordie gets better. What kind of dog is Jordie?

Done- TK. Here is hoping for a swift, full recovery. Good on ya, Jordie.

I'm so sorry to hear that, TK. All my best thoughts and wishes that Jordie will recover.

I believe he is a Golden Retriever.

What happened? His liver is failing.

Any word on Jordie, TK?

Yes, actually. The antibiotics he was given have had an effect. His liver bounced back, and he's now on the mend.

Hooray!

Hooray indeed!! I'm sure Jordie's furry friends are celebrating.

Glad to hear Chef T.

WOO HOO! So glad to hear that TK !!

Good news on Jordie! Thanks for the update, TK.

Sniff, sniff ... goodbye Bruce Pearl ... BWAAAA! Snork, snork ... sniff, sniff. Bruce Pearl and Phil Fulmer - forever in my heart ... even if UT tossed them out like yesterdays garbage.

And why is Mike Hamilton not fired? How was he able to keep his job after the Lane Kiffin fiasco? Who is he related to?

It's not who ya knoooow.....

It's not who you know .... it's who you are related to?
It's not who you know .... it's who you are sleeping with?
It's not who you know .... it's who you are paying under the table?
It's not who you know .... it's who you have a secret about and are blackmailing?

If you could ever hear Phil Fulmer or Bruce Pearl speak - there can't be any more inspirational motivational speakers on the planet !!! Bruce Pearl even got Pat Summitt to smile - that is a statement in itself !!! Sniff, sniff ...

Here’s a postcard from Grits World.

Grits (pounding on bathroom door): Hurry up! Your sister is waiting for the shower! I’m gonna turn off the hot water!! What is taking so long in there?!

Grits the Youngest (walks past in hallway): You do not want him to answer that.

You just wait until Foxy comes (cums?) round these parts. This one I leave entirely up to him.

Chef T is right, Foxy gonna have a field day with this one...
