I just realized that there are two praying smilies and in the selection. Are they really any different?

Whitney Houston's DAughter, Bobbie Kristina Brown overdosed and was found in a bath tub in a hotel (sound familar like her Mother).....rushed to hospital. And is in a Coma. I am sure the BK saw a lot while growing up around Whitney and Bobbie Brown. Prayers for Bobbie Kristina, and made she be restored to good health.

Re: LTE 2.0

Poodles come in a variety of colors. Black, brown, silver, red, cream, apricot and white. Tyler is a Cream - Creams can vary from almost white to nearly apricot in outward appearance. I do not expect the average person to be able to tell the difference between a dark cream and a light apricot. I expect a vet, a vet tech and a groomer to be able to tell instantly (skin color, nail color, eye color, nose color and lip color are different in a cream vs. a apricot) Ty's a dark cream - his eyes are very dark brown. His lips, nose and nails are jet black. HIs skin and his base color are off white. All these are clear indications he is not apricot. My groomer hired a new person and when I took Tyler in yesterday the ninny called him Apricot about 6 times - Jamie (the shop owner/master groomer) finally corrected her, and which point the Newbie admitted she could 'never tell them apart anyway'. Without delving deeply into poodle genetics (which are freakishly complex when it comes to color) and launching a discussion about dilute genes let us just say it matters from health point of view. Reds/Apricots (Apricot is red with the fading gene) have particular health issues creams/whites/blacks do not. Apricots and Reds are more prone to eye and skin issues. It is important for a groomer to know this. It is important for a vet to know this. When Tyler went for his first vet appt at 10 weeks of age she took one look and correctly IDed him as cream. So did the vet tech. If they had not, I would have thought long and hard about finding a new vet.
I know it is a small thing - but really it isn't hard.

Re: LTE 2.0
Hopefully, Jamie will have a few discussions with the new groomer about why such things are important. If the new groomer doesn't learn the lessons, Tyler should bark at her anytime the word apricot is used.windsor wrote:<incoming rant>

My poodle, Trixie, was a toy poodle, that weighed 5 lbs, as an adult. She was white and apricot as a baby, and the runt of the litter. Her Father was a beautiful White toy poddle, named Frosty BonBon. Trixie's apricot color faded as her White coat came in, during the first year. Trixie was a beautiful toy poodle. She lived almost 15 years. All Dogs go to HeavenDukieInKansas wrote:Hopefully, Jamie will have a few discussions with the new groomer about why such things are important.

Re: LTE 2.0
Me too, Windsor. I like to think my pit bull mix, the Writ of Certiorari, is waiting for me. I still have a picture of him in my office as a puppy with his favorite squeaky toy, from 1989. I buried him in a Duke blanket. I thought it was the least I could do, since he had survived three National Championships.windsor wrote:DevilWearsPrada2.0 wrote:My poodle, Trixie, was a toy poodle, that weighed 5 lbs, as an adult.

Re: LTE 2.0
Tyler is back home, a little stoned and none too pleased to be wearing a cone. He was lucky - they managed to get both jewels with one incision. He should be fine in a day or so. Jester is hovering over his little buddy. Tyler apparently did not ready the 'no jumping' instructions as he hopped up on the sofa seconds after coming in the house.
All is well.

I saw where Snoop Dawg's son, Cordell Broadus is going to UCLA and play football. Cordell is a WR and the first in his family to go to college. Good for him!
