Case Of the Bloody Paw Print

Riley got his nails cut and one was cut a bit too much. And when he goes outside the ice covered/crusted snow breaks open the clot. I have been following him around with a damp towel. Getting my exercise.

I also went out alone, while his nail was clotting the first time, to collect his "business". Well, later in the morning we (G & I) were wondering where Riley was. And we found him in front of the exit door. No one was getting past him without letting him OUT. We took him for a car ride since I wanted some heart shaped red beads. No beads. Sigh! Why have red heart shaped beads in a BEAD store in February????

We got home and Riley went out to pee and we started the bloody paw prints again. So G took the dog for his all time favorite "walk in the woods". The nail is gonna bleed no matter what and he does need exercise.

G also went and bought a new belt for the vacuum. After I told him the beater bar is supposed to "turn". Amazing how much stuff you can pick up when the beater turns. And the carpets look nice and no smell of burning rubber. He is attempting to clean up his office and have a place to unpack his pockets after work, rather than use the end of the dining room table. So far he has moved the PC tower and printer. He also unplugged the HP photo printer we never needed. I'm hoping my daughter will want it.

We also got a food additive for Riley's meals. To make his "business" less attractive when frozen. I know that lots of animals don't completely digest their food the first time, so they eat it again. Rabbits, deer and some dogs. I watched that survivor guy on the Discovery channel and he was eating deer poop. Oops. Deer "business". It just makes me crazy to see Riley out there searching and digging up stuff. His breath doesn't smell. I checked. But I want him to stop. Now, if I can get all the neighbors to feed this stuff to their cats.
