whatever that mix is, we sure do have a lot of them here, and yes, folks call them rottie-mixes. Tend to be sweet and playful, probably more retriever than herding type, and not too much terrier. Hope she finds her owner soon, thanks for taking her in. We wound up having a fairly calm night here, a relief since the fireworks started locally on Friday, the city's displays were Saturday, Sunday and Monday, and then Tuesday they shot off the ones that didn't happen due to the heavy thunderstorms that have been every night as well. Shahlet didn't get upset at all, so we skipped the phosphorus, and Annie just had a few things to say about the neighbor's rockets. We've got 2 more nights of fireworks, and 4 more nights of thunderstorms, but the dogs seem to be growing accustomed to the pattern, so I did get some sleep last night. It's getting tiresome having radios on, windows closed, and keeping the dogs inside all the time, so I'll be glad when the locals all run out of their supplies.
