Is there a limit...?
« on: September 18, 2006, 07:21:26 AM »
to the number of daddy long legs that one cocker should consume in the course of a day?????

Bella thinks all her Christmases and birthdays have come at once. The house is full of them and if she is in the kitchen on her own, all we hear at night is the thump of her throwing herself at the kitchen units as she tries to catch them!

I don't think she has as much as looked at any of her toys for the last week. Daddy long legs are much more fun!

No limit !
but we might need to discuss hiring Bella as Donna HATES them. I've even been called from work to get rid of them  :005:

there is NO limit!  :005:

Our Bella loves them too, I said to hubby last night at least they're keeping her entertained  ;) She normally brings toys to us to play but she's quite happy playing with the daddy long legs instead!

She doesn't seem to have any sense though and has crashed into all sorts of things trying to catch them including our fireplace and the wall  ::)

Bless 'em  :luv:

They are everywhere.  In the garden - On the park.  In the Kitchen.  Max is fascinated, they're keeping him occcupied.  OH keeps trying to put them outside before Max gets to them - that dog will eat anything  >:D

Buddy had no idea at all when I tried to encourage him to catch one for me.

But last week he found an ENORMOUS house spider, and scared it to death. By the time Steve got to it it had curled up into a dead little ball!
