| well i mean, there's usually different foods for puppies and adults and older dogs... so i was kinda curious if it was ok to use that or not and maybe just soften it with warm water or something? hmm... |

well doesnt it have aversion for puppies and a version for adult dogs? like a small bites version type thing?
yeah i was thinking about that, my friend used to feed her miniture shnauser with kibble and watter added to it. is that something i should be doing? what do you plan of doing? |

No, it is to line the plastic bottom, so they do not have to lay on a hard plastic liner, or just on a small bed.

is that something for when the puppy is young and has "accidents" in the crate?

i think the small bites part is just for smaller dog breeds...? hmm... i think it should be ok... i posted a new post, but kinda mixed reviews...
i think either way i'll be adding warm water for a little while... when our chocolate lab had puppies and they were getting weaned, that's what we fed them (puppy food and warm water)... i think (don't really know, just a guess) that either, it's easier for them to eat because it's soft OR it makes it easier to digest in their bellies... |

yeah i heard that water helps the digestion or something like that, i cant remember who on here told me but im pretty sure they suggested that. i think either way it will work, i know a lot of people on here use that kinda dog food, i dunno if they have puppies though, but if it says its ok o the bag im sure its alright. haha my friend and i went to fred meyers today and she pointed to dog food and said would you be feeding them this kinda stuff, and i was like no i have no idea what that is so i wouldnt, then i took her down the pet aile and said here let me show you what i know, i grabbed pedigree or something, and the first like 6 items i was like bad bad bad bad etc etc and kept going down the list, i was about half way done with a ton of "bad" when she finally ok i get it lol when i pointed to like 5 brands and i said thats crap thats crap and thats crap lol i feel so smart right now.
basically ive beenworking on this project i have to do for my cultural anthropology class and being the procrastinator that i am, i have been working on it all day and its due tomorrow. ive written my 5-7 page paper and had someone edit it, not i just need to fix the errors, but i also have to keep a journal for the 10 hours of community service i did, so i am just bullshitting all the stuff from all of the hours spread through all of the quarter, its almost 12 and im not done, ive been working since 2:30 with a couple hour breaks. i felt so left out today, i havnt been online at all ugh, but ok 5 more minutes then im back to the project. i have one class tomorrow at 10 where were reviewing for the final, but that is my last class of my freshman year! 2 finals and a 4-5 page paper and i am out of here thursday! i just got 3 gigantic boxes to finish packing my crap, but i have like 5 bags and 2 boxes packed already hehe im ready to go haha ugh anyway i just wanna think about my lil puppy andn ot work  sad |

| i dunno, thats weird, especially since i got one, but of course it went to my junk mail, did you put something in the subject area? maybe since your account is from hotmail it needs that? but then of course her addres was msn so idk that is just really weird. i wonder if the other breeder didnt get it either then and thats why she didnt get back to you? well i guess we will find out when you or i hear back from lynn keep me posted! |

| yeah, i put "hi" the first time and "hey" the second time... lol i'm not very original! (my account's yahoo... and hers was hotmail or something... lol i don't remember!) but it shouldn't be a problem between the servers or something, i've got friends that have hotmail and it worked with them... maybe my mail's breeder proof! lol i'm guessing that's what happened too... but i dunno how else to try to get ahold of them... i guess i'm not much of a phone person with strangers lol |

ugh i know what you mean with the cotton lol. yeah thats agood idea! i love ebay! if you did get something like a bed, is there a way to may the scent of the other dog totally gone? what of the dog had a disease like parv or something? idk i am just so cautious, but i will definently look on there haha
ok either you are going to freak when you read this, or you will have already checked your email first...i just got an email from lynn saying she didnt get your email but she will send you one!!!
i think that means the other breeder didnt get it either lol but yeah so thats great. make sure you tell me what she says once to email her back! |

well most of the beds on there are brand new, a lot of companies or stores have accounts on there, so you don't have to worry about that i wouldn't want a used doggie bed (ick! lol)
hmm... i wonder when she's going to send it, it's about 8:30 here and i haven't gotten anything from her... i'll let you know when i do though!!!
