The Dogmother Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 ... phone rings, Phil picks it up, it is my Dad who asks for me. Phil: "Hang on, she's brushing the dog's teeth!" For information; Cyrus had really bad teeth and gingivitis when we adopted him, his teeth are much, much better now with all the raw meat and bones that he eats but his breath is still a bit whiffy and he's inclined to get a bit of tartar around the tops of his teeth, so I go round them with a descaler and then brush them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Probably very good for the skin this thread made me laugh so much. I think my father gave up me yrs ago - out of the 2 of us I am far madder and ecentric than him. Your poor dads probably wondering whatever next - pedicure for hens.

Lavenders_Blue Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Went to some friends for a drink early this evening. I was asked 'What have you been up to today?'. I so very nearly said 'I deloused the chickens this morning,' then thought better of it Mad chicken lady, moi? You betcha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 I know exactly what you mean - they don't really want to hear that you've been delousing chooks, mucking out, brushing dogs' teeth, despatching meat birds or castrating lambs. You can see their eyes glazing over Still, at least we're happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
