Doggy Halloween, Sadistic Wife

My wife is generally a nice person. However, when October rolls around she tortures our dogs year after year. For the other part of the year, she feeds them so lavishly (raw meat) they have no choice but to submit.

Unfortunately, we lost our favorite Costume Hound in 2005. Halloween came and went last year, and, for the most part, the dogs were safe.

Not this year.

We are a “foster” family for Rhodesian Ridgebacks - meaning that when someone gets rid of their Ridgeback, we take them in…

These dogs then wreak havoc on our couches, wood floors, landscaping, shoes, etc..(which is usually why their owners chose to do away with them to begin with).

After several weeks, some unsuspecting person who wants a cheap Ridgeback (they go for about $1500 new) decides to go the “rescue route.” We then place the destructive beast in a new “home” and the process begins anew.

This year, we have an especially sweet Ridgeback named Kendra. Look how happy she is!

That cowboy is my son. Together, they won first place despite my shoddy workmanship on the horse ears (notice the felt coming off in the picture).

Wise Man Say, “Dogs Bite for Reason.”
