Well, we have an *evil* pitbull (Hurricane Cali) who's a house potato <g> 
And we have a hound (Tuff-Enuf Mugwump) who has the face of angel and the 
disposition of an alligator with PMS who is also a house potato.  Both dogs 
were rescues as puppies and had a lot of problems (one from a drug house 
where they fed the dogs drugs and the other literally run over by two cars 
at 3 months) so never ended up outside.

I'll have to look at the archieves as we want to expand the orchard and the 
blooming beasts have taken to pulling the circles of welded wire off the 
trees.  These deer are too smart for their own good, well or too hungry.

Lynda, who wishes she could have afforded to stay on the coast where there 
is enough food for the deer without them tearing up gardens!
