My Dad took them "To The Farm" when I was real little. Never figured that on out till I was a bit older

Yup Don't mess with the livestock! but at the end of the day the abandoned ones revert to instinct for survival. My Uncle Pete would always get strays but never spayed on his dairy farm (could not afford it). After milking he would take the milk can and holler puss puss puss..... and out of every nook and cranny 50+ cats swarm the big pan and stick their heads right under the milk as he was pouring it. Never had a problem with rats or mice in the grain silos

I dont want physical harm to come to anyone for this....I do have a soft spot for pets...SO................ ahhhh nevermind. Im not gonna say it... Well how about smacking into the back of a manure spreader and filling the cab with pig shat!

I had Phil move this to general chat folks! Thanks Phil!

I'm not taking it personally so no worries there...I am also going to keep sharing info...I don't make claims it true or false (I do have my suspicions. I'll try to leave them out but it may surface here and there). Consider it public interest for those interested..My hope is people take from it what they will. Peace!

Wuhan has been in lock down for weeks, no cars, no transportation, everyone locked indoors. Yes makes sense when the wheels of industry are turning..However, the question you might want to ask is why smog when the wheels have fallen off and everyone is locked down?

I dont do facebook and yes I should have put this under general chat.. maybe Phil can move it. I've had people appreciate the info.

No doubt there are people looking to profit. No doubt there are people that put there head in the sand. No doubt there are folks who take preparation for eventualities seriously. No doubt there are people who bless others with their preparations should things not materialize. No doubt there are those that feel they are entitled because they did not take simple precautions to take care of themselves and their loved ones. And no doubt there are doubters and folks who capitalize at the expense of others. To each his own I say. Prayers for all. And Yes Bear Down!

They headed back towards Mtn Home. I live way out in the country....Iowa. unfortunately. I gave the description to police and am still waiting the officer who is looking into this to call back.... unfortunately I guess this is low on their todo list. I did speak to animal control and the guy went and and looked for me and talked with several business owners and they all saw the dog hanging around their shops..but he has tracked it heading back to town. Not sure what the dog will do, he was at my place since they dumped him. Probably sticking around waiting for them to come back. At least he had my car port to stay dry under.

The dog is still there just 15 min ago https://ring.com/share/6789631842264006173 I called the police and reported the guy.

Anyone willing to do a health and welfare check? Looks to be a border collie Blue Heeler mix https://ring.com/share/6789343890476613149 needs posterior kicking too...Not the Dog...The AzzHat that dumped him/her

I Like this guys delivery and content...not sure yet why he's so bashed from what he says

Figured I'd pull this out of the document in case you have not see all the articles. This is from the reported treatment that shows promise. Figured It my be good to show the Drug names. I think we have some medicine folks around. Cocktail of flu, HIV drugs appears to help fight coronavirus: Thai doctors The drug treatment includes: mixture of anti-HIV drugs lopinavir and ritonavir, in combination with flu drug oseltamivir (Tamiflu?) in large doses If this has a positive outcome that will be a good thing. Not sure how long it takes to ramp up production on those should this be validated???

I grew up in North West NJ, Sussex County. I'm an Appalachian Mtn. Born and Raised Country boy. I'm not from Joisey Proud son of the Skylands region of NJ , near the border of NY, NJ and Pennsylvania in the Kittatinny Mountains. My family has history as some of the first inhabitants of the Milbrook Village in the Delaware Water Gap. A pretty popular tourist location with one room schoolhouse, black smith shop and all the trappings of the old world. http://www.njskylands.com/hsmillbrookvillage My Nanna, Pop-Pop and family were some of the initial inhabitants of what is now National Park...Part of the Tocks Island Project. The Gov. gave life rights to land owners and the plan was to flood the region for a giant reservoir.... Thankfully this beautiful land never was flooded but we lost family legacy and land. I will take you through this journey of my life and family as I have time and reflect on the things that made me who I am as an outdoorsman and naturalist. My hope is this will give some insight into who I am and what I stand for and the foundation of my youth and the cornerstone of my psyche. In short I have a love of the outdoors instilled by my Grandfather and Father. It's a journey I hope you will take with me as I relive the escapades and moments that are at time cringeworthy, funny and worthy of personal growth and the love of all things in the Natural world. Check back as I up date and record my life. Pop-Pop (Joseph Lowick..."Joe") It's the mid 1970's - Dog days of summer have passed. Damp fall weather is setting in on the Ridge "Kittatinny Mtn Range in Sussex County NJ". Been raining a couple days now.... but Pop-Pop said on his weekly visit to say hi (watch the fights on the Cable TV)........ "You come help in the garden and help me get prepped for the Indian corn" I got a surprise for ya. Then he unceremoniously spat in his hills bros. coffee can. A process repeated all day every day as evident by the stain on his white short whiskered chin. Surprises always meant Eel fishing the Delaware River with a drop line. It also meant a stop at the store to pick up pickled pigs feet, more RedMan for Pop-Pop, and Yoo-Hoo for me. If we were lucky and got an early enough start, we got to bring the pitchforks and hunt for baby Lamprey Eel. (Pop-Pop would scoop the pitchfork into a brush/twig pile known to house and protect the young Lamprey Eel from fish and other predators and scoop it out onto the embankment where the fun ensued) Lamprey Hunt = A fast reflex game great for kids catching the squiggling young lamprey before it can get back in to the creek. We hunted the feeder creeks for about an hour looking for Lamprey nests as we called them (not allowed any more). If we got skunked we reverted to use the garden worms we dug up before leaving to head over the mountain. I can only remember doing this twice growing up because it was a rare occasion.. Other times we'd just pick Indian artifacts along the Delaware in the plowed up fields being made ready for winter wheat Anyway - Pop-Pop didn't disappoint. We got to go Eel fishing but the real surprise would come later.......My first time working the Eel Weir. Pop-Pops commercial Eel Harvesting Operation. The Weir Hawkeye and Pierce just had a back and forth that caused a belly laugh with Dad and I to close out the night's episode of MASH when I heard the front door creek open to Pop-Pop saying his customary entry....No-Bah-Dee Home! He appeared out of the dark entry into the glow of the TV light spilling from the living room into the dark foyer. "YOU READY????" Now,.... I wasn't sure what ready meant...I had been Eel fishing that Saturday and ABC's Wide World Of Sports wasn't for another couple days. So it wasn't "Ready" for Boxing and Howard Cosell and the fights we loved to watch.. Always got a kick out of hearing Pop-Pops commentary on the fights... even more so then Howard's...which is saying a lot. He said get your play coat..... I obliged...I didn't ask Mom or Dad...apparently didn't have too....it was a given this was ok...I guess cause they never said... school night or you'll catch a death of cold or none of that silly stuff. Off we went....Just down the road from the house at the bottom of the hill was the Paulinskill and the town Gristmill that just so happened to have the most fabulous Eel Weir I have ever seen or come to know... I've seen Many.

He has really good days and like last night not so good.. He's a sweetie.... Gonna hate to say goodbye one day. We wont let him suffer just for our sake. Sometimes its tough to not be selfish!

Tnx moguy1973...added to top post! with comment
