ON THE BACK BURNER

- [ ] Cricket has a dislike toward a certain dog in our development. I don't know why that is. Everyone who knows Cricket ,knows that she is laid back, uncomplicated and lovable. She meets and greets every dog as a potential friend. Especially if their owners carry treats with them. But this particular dog who belongs to our developments slightly memory challenged but living independently neighbor is on Cricket's black ball list. I have no reason to know why. Joey has never been hostile toward Cricket. In fact, Joey is a little too hyper for Cricket,sniffing dark places that Cricket prefers to keep private. Other doggie friends do the usual sniff test every time they meet, but Joey must have said something to Cricket or embarrassed her in some way , because Cricket growls and tries to escape from Joey's advances when they meet. Maybe Cricket heard me talking about the memory challenged neighbor because she insists upon walking Joey across the golf course, unleashed and my neighbor , not being responsible, lets the droppings be left behind. It is wrong for me to talk about a neighbor in front of the children. I will try to be more circumspect for Cricket's sake. I want her to be free to like everyone, and not be influenced by me. - [ ] PS. Remember I spoke about my Grandson finding a beautiful white dog? Well the owner was found, happy to have her dog safe and well taken care of. A day later, after the owner picked up her dog, the dog was back on my Grandson's door step. I think the owner and Grandson are working on joint custody.
