As some of you may have heard we have a ship hit bridge disaster in the Baltimore harbor. I have lots of good links to factual articles. I discovered that there Maritime websites with non political definitive articles.
There is a discussion going on among politicians about wether the federal government should bail out Maryland for the multibillion recovery cost. This accident does not just have local effects. Baltimore is the main import export for the automobile industry among other trade items.

Well what I saw in mainstream news is no discussion of the fact that these cargo ships are insured and that according to this linked article most if not all of the damage should be covered. So the federal and Maryland government will be repaid for short term relief money. Includes bridge, cost of freeing up ship and economic loss to businesses and individuals. Marine insurance seems pretty awesome.

Britannia, the insurer of container ship the Dali, is working with the vessel's owner and U.S. authorities on the investigation into…

Ofbsoruce chips in the upper pasture. The drive way is swept clean of spruce parts and needles. Mike’s estimate came in at 1/3rd of the estimate from the tree company. Wow. Still have a bit of fence fixing to do.

The kennel business phone line gets LOTS of spam and phising calls because I can’t set it to ignore numbers not in my phone book. It is a business number and new clients may call. Recently I have been getty many calls for “ Cheryl” about updating the service contract on her 2015 Mercedes. We are not Cheryl and the only Mercedes we ever had was in the early 200’s. It was a lemon, had a problem that triggered a recall and we traded it in on a Hylander long time ago.
So when this morning’s call came for Cheryl, I told the real person
“Cheryl died in a car accident that totaled the Mercedes. “
Caller said “Thanks I will update the account”. And hung up rather than trying to get me to buy a service contract on some other car I might own.

Yesterday I was told that Leigh Litttleton, a long time Borzoi owner and a person very important in ASFA lure coursing passed away. I knew him and his wife Vickie for a long time. I would like to assemble remembrances of Leigh to send to Borzoi and Lure coursing social media and to be presented at the ASFA convention
and to give to BCOA.
Any remembrances posted that I have permission to use will be fully credited to their authors. Pictures of Leigh and his dogs would be appreciated.
Leigh was an intelligent and gentle person who loved Vickie and his Borzoi and I am sorry that my house fire followed by covid caused me to not see him in the last few years.

I have trouble doing a video of this We do a lot of ear skritches of the Zois lately I am seeing a behavior “cell phone jealousy”.
The dog (especially Argo) sees me typing on the cell phone and so he comes poking his head between the cell phone and my hand so I pet him rather than the cell phone.

We have a 2 yr old big neutered male looking for an experienced home. No cats or children, and he's too active for city life. You must be close enough to come visit and interact with him a number of times. Very sweet boy, but needs someone willing to work obedience with him.

Note: please note that you must be close to come visit with the dog. It is a requirement. If you can't, we can gladly refer you to breeders in your area

Recently we have purchased various vet supplies from Revival Animal Health. They also have periodic health messages such as this one:
27 Things Not to Give Pregnant Dogs
Once your female is pregnant, what's in her diet is even more important to keep an eye on. Using certain substances during a pregnancy can result in defects to the puppies. A couple of them surprised me such as the ear medicine Mometamax.

Revival's Director of Veterinary services, Dr. Don Bramlage, DVM recommends avoiding these substances during pregnancy:

Aspirin
Ciprofloxacin
Steroids
Diethylstilbestrol
Doxycycline
Enrofloxacin
Estradiol
Excess Vitamin A
Excess Vitamin D

Gold
Grieseofulvin
Metronidazole
Oxytetracycline
Pentobarbital
Streptomycin
Sulfa's
Tetracycline
Warfarin

Certain topical products can also cause defects. Those are:

Carbaryl
Dexamethasone Ophthalmic
Gentocin sprays

Mometamax
Ophthalmic with steroids
Pennyroyal

Rotenone
St. John's Wort
TriTop ointment

Sept 4, 2017 is the 40th anniversary of Silkenswift Hilary Halfboot, LCM finishing her field championship.
Hilary was the first Silkenswift Borzoi Field Champion.
It was a 3 day event at Dean Wright's in PA, Hilary was the first ASFA hound to begin coursing and finish her Field CH in one 3 day weekend. I went to the field trial in Hanover PA yesterday to celebrate this anniversary and give out small presents to everyone who wanted one (prints of my artwork). Silkenswift Cobol Frecklefoot finished his AKC Field Championship yesterday.
Here is her Pedigree:

Sadly, Pickle Hill Gatzby passed away in his sleep last night, July 15, 2015. He was born May 7, 2004 so he was a bit over 12 years old. He was an especially sweet dog who never got in any conflicts with the other dogs. He had started to suffer from movement problems in the fore quarters 3 years ago or so but he got around and came in to beg for pets and treats when ever we were in the kitchen. There was no sign of disturbance when I found him this morning, he was in his normal sleeping place and in his normal sleeping position. Jim let him in and out for his midnight potty session last night at midnight. He is greatly missed by all who knew him.
