Several years ago ole Jeep and I were workin at a customers house in the country. He had a bad dog with a capital "B". The owner was there for awhile and then had to leave. Told us to just go ahead and do what we had to do. Most people are very trusting in this neck of the woods and he was no different. He left this house unlocked so if we needed to get in it would already be open. The dog was his pride and joy. Always sneakin up and tryin to bite you and the owner would just laugh if the dog nipped us. We'd holler at'm and throw clods but still he'd sneak up and try to bite us again. I told the owner he needed to do something with the dog or somebody was gonna get hurt. He still just laughed at my warning. After he left the dog continued to aggravate me and old Jeep. Finally I'd had enough and so had Jeep. I told'm to chase the dog around the north side of the house and I'd sneak around the south side and catch'm on other side. Jeep did, I did and the dog almost died! Never laid a hand, club,stick or anything else on'm. Didn't wanna hurt him but wanted'm to remember us. I DID beat the ground with a shovel and holler real loud while chasin that stupid dog. He got to runnin so fast he couldn't even bark. After reachin a barn across the road he did slow down enough to look back and said "woof" in a very mellow tone of bark. He left us alone the rest of the day. About 2 weeks later we were back out there to do some more maintaince work. The owner was tellin us he just couldn't understand it but his famous watchdog was absolutely worthless! Wouldn't even bark when people drove in his driveway and would just burn up the road headin to the barn. We never bothered tellin him what had happened-he wouldn't 'v understood it anyhow. Bet that dog still has nightmares --that is if he's still alive and kickin! Our little nips healed up but the dogs emotional scars didn't! Matt. 24:44

This has absolutely nothin to do with the aforementioned dog. What it DOES have to do with is a great website that is a potential life saver. I'm not advocating buyin anything from this guy but one can get the same thing locally. I'm always lookin for alternative drugs/cures to my physical problems and I'm sure others are too. I'm sick and tired of readin the warnin labels on the prescription med and findin it's usually as bad or worse that what we're treatin. With natural herbs etc those dangerous side effects are held to a mininum. www.drdavidwilliam.com/premiums is the website. I've already stopped takin the prescription med for cholestrol-Lipitor-causes liver damage, and replaced it with more garlic. Diabetes med will be next to go and replaced with CoEnzime Q-10, Fish oil and even more herbs. It probably isn't any cheaper to go the herbal route but then again the end result will be cheaper, no doubt. So, check this out, download/print those cures [not treatments] for cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular, arthritis etc. I think there is 8 you can download for free. Almighty God didn't allow satan to put disease on us without providing a cure--and it's most likely in herbs! Matt. 24:44

Kath! Nopee, he was a BIG beagle hound/fox hound cross. Big enough tyo cause serious damage to a human body. If he'd been my dog he wouldn't have lived to see the light of a new day. I hate mean dogs. Don't like mean people either but wouldn't shoot any of'm like I would a mean dog. Matt. 24:44
