PS. Tal, you seems to be a good man, but all the things you did for your dog are just the opposite of what he/she needs...

It is a hard issue, but lots of help online...

and many many more... the issue needs to be worked on when there is not a storm, not easy, lots of practice, but fun IMO

He is quite spoiled but keeps my father's blood pressure as well as mine down. He works as a great therapy dog in that way.

And with some of the storms he seems OK.

I think you should give the lobster to your new girl

Just a really good friend. Not sure if she likes lobster. She gave Beau some cookies for Christmas. She has a lot of pets.

My rain gauge said 1 1/2 inches in Buttonwood. I thought we got more?

Some of it was going a little sideways in Lynnhaven. Maybe, the gauge missed some of this?

Santiago got 2-1/2" on Tuesday and 2" last night. Cart path on golf course under water this morning. Probably need another 10" to fill some of the ponds. Some palm fronds down but that's it.

It looked like the golf cart path to the Promise Hospital near the 6th Hole of Belmont was under water Tuesday as a good deal of the cow pies and other stuff had floated over to it from the lower level of the cow pasture there.

Probably more cow pies there now.

We used to have a Lab Setter mix. She would run in the bathtub. I would always have to hold her until it was well over.

Cat took the high ground (top of bookcase in one fell swoop) at the booming thunder around 4:30 am. Other one slept right through it beside me. That was the extent of the excitement here in Hemingway.

That was a good drenching the last two storms as the retention pond on El Camino was bone dry. Went riding past the pond today and it looked half full.

Heard the thunder this morning at 4 AM but it didn't faze me too much as I rolled over and went back to sleep.

The thunder woke me shortly after 4 this AM. LIghtning was intense. Looked like someone had a strobe light on outside our bedroom windows. Got up to check the weather on tv. Cable shut off, internet lost. Modem needed to be reset and now have two cable boxes that went belly up and one of those HD DTA boxes, too, has given up the ghost. Couple of circuit breakers tripped. Tv on the lanai has also gone to the dark side. Not sure where the heck there was a strike, but there was a loud pop outside before all went haywire. Wasn't loud enough for a direct lightning strike, have had one close by years ago....they are deafening! Comcast will be out to check the boxes and the DTA., but it seems replacement is needed. Main DVR and one other box are okay.

Your rite GE but it's not me that's afraid of or ascared (2 year old granddaughter) it's a tie between Barney our Boxer and Mrs Nucky losing it because Barney is freaking out. He is a 96 lb old man who is the nicest dog but any loud noise sends him into orbit. The medication route for him seems to be animal cruelty in my opinion, it's sad to see him upset but we lived through it together. I'm surprised he isn't bald from getting petted so much during the storm.

I know the golf courses are just a smiling, ponds are getting back to normal and my fur ball is relieved!

My Aunt up in Cape Cod used to have a St. Bernard that would also sometimes require the same kind of treatment.

On of our dogs was tied outside in Hattiesburg, ms during Katrina. We got her a couple of month's later. Needless to say Katrina has quite the dose of ptsd
