Hi Janis,

 JK> Yes, when Toby gets older I may do the same.  Right now, his teeth are
 JK> in excellent shape and he doesn't need anything to help him chew.

Sam was 11 when we adopted him out before we went to HI.  I've no idea
how much longer he lived; he had several health issues that concerned
us enough that we didn't want to take him to HI.  We had a family on our
street that fell in love with him and eagerly adopted him before we
left.

 JK> hahaha I can picture the difference, ok that's neat.

The only sort of cute chiuahua I've seen was the Taco Bell one. (G)
Other than that, they're not my favorite dog.

 JK> hahahahahaha that's exactly what the vet said when I asked him :)  He

Typical description for dogs of unknown lineage.  Don't know what Heintz
Foods feels about the description but it's one I've known (and used) for
years.

>> dirt (laugh).. at least they didn't do any harm to the plants.

 JK> That's rough when you have deer around.  I know they cleaned out my

We have an occaisional deer in the neighborhood.  Steve startled one a
few months ago when he took out trash one night after dark.  The deer
must have been looking for food.  One crossed the road in a hurry
between the car ahead of us and ours last week.  We were far enough
behind that we didn't hit it but it was right in back of the other
vehicle.
