Cool job, Don. I've gotten to meet two of our local AC Officers thanks to my neighbor.... sigh... " sure, come on in, yes they have fresh water, yes they have food, what's that? You don't think it was them barking? Yeah, me either. Oh, and they look like they're in good weight and condition? Can you please let the neighbor know that? Again? Thanks... sigh..." She once complained because my dog was out in the rain(for a few minutes!) without cover. They don't have cover outside because they don't stay outside. They go out to potty and then back in to the couch. She called because they were barking. They weren't. She called because my male looked skinny. He's 37" tall at the shoulder and they do go through a gangly period at about 12-18 months old, but he was totally healthy and being fed 6 cups of super premium food 3 times a day. He's getting older now and has a lick granuloma(open sore that he won't stop licking... fairly common in dogs, but totally sucks) and I'm just waiting for AC to show up again. It's actually been a couple of years now. They're over due <gg>
