My poor big boy. The animal control visited my neighborhood a few weeks ago (I was out walking my dogs and tangled with a loose bull) and they discovered that my boy was un-neutered (my female is) and told me very nicely to get him fixed and licenced or else. They told me where to get it done cheaply. So today the deed was done and he is all legal. But he is a cone head for a week and very embarrased. The worst is that his best friend, my horse Chic, has decided that a monster has taken over his friend and absolutely freaked out and will not go near him. Poor Checkers is heart broken and confused that his buddy snorts and runs away from him. He is so sad. He is now sulking in his dog house and Chic is watching to see if the monster comes back.
