poor dog indeed!

funny story is I didn't know there was a motion detector in the alarm. the car was new and I had locked the dog in a couple of times to run quick errands and when I came back, the blinker lights were flashing. I couldn't figure it out. then on the 3rd time, when a guard told me my alarm was sounding was when it finally registered - DOH!

anyway, here's a couple of pictures of the poor dog

Were you upset when the dog "Let Loose" in the car out of fear from the alarm sound??

no damage nor any visible evidence of "letting loose" at all. She would be a great hunting dog if I hunted. I'm hammering down a hardwood floor with nail gun and she gets closer to check out the action

I'm not quite shure if Gracie is the right one for Santo after all. She's tougher than him, and i think that would destroy his self esteem. He's kinda touchy on that. Sorry Gracie.

Santo is afraid of the vacuum cleaner. And he's a he. I'm embarrassed on his behalf.

Werva, you're killing me. I'm ROFL. Gracie says, "Santo, we can still be friends and drink beer and talk about your issues or E61 car alarms."

Speaking of vacuum cleaners, if you don't know about Yellow Labs, the ONE thing you should know is they shed their weight in hair in a month. I may be exaggerating but not by much. So I'm vacuuming the sofa with a portable vacuum cleaner when Gracie walks by. I put the vacuum cleaner hose on her back and start vacuuming for loose hair. She doesn't even flinch. She even moves her back around like she enjoys it. Sorry, Santo.

Heheh - thx I'm enjoing this thread too, man. I'm gonna add you as a friend in here! Are you on facebook by the way?

I can do that vacuumcleaner trick to one of our two cats. He's much tougher than the dog - and we even had his nuts removed last year (the cat's)!

With two cats and one golden retriever we too have to vacuum a lot. And my wife is also shedding a bit with her long blond hair
I'm glad that our newborn girl does not seem to be allergic to animals and shedding wives!
