   Good fences are especially important if you are a burglar.

   No matter about Zeke and Reuben, that saying is so true…But most neighborhoods dont allow you to have fences, which keeps unwanted dogs out of your yard with their stupid owners who let them do what comes naturally but do not pick up after them…

   Rover, keep the privacy fence, but invite Zeke and Reuben inside to play!

   That fence isn’t good enough. Needs to be higher.

   1965,,,,riding a red bike, humping over the handle bars, Dickie (my Collie) beside me…taking in all the wonders of Dumas, Texas- population3,042….no predators, no crime per se, and lots of folks that stood in for your parents if need be…home, protection, sweetness and comfort…and an occasional hoola hoop and sidewalk surfer…what a great time to listen to the Beatles, Beach Boys and Stones and just enjoy life!

   Is it just me or do most of our good times involve a dog in our lives at the time?

   That’s why dogs are man’s best friends.

   Frost was quoting an old farmer in The Mending
   Wall. He spent the rest of the poem arguing against that view. He even recited it (to thunderous cheers and applause) in East Germany while the wall was still standing.

    I can’t imagine a regulation that prevents foot-high fences around yards. That’s a subtle hint that you want dogs out of your yard. I’ve never owned a dog, but I’ve had to walk my mother’s dog. It’s bad enough having to do that, but it’s worse to be yelled at by neighbors while I’m on my way to the park and the dog can’t wait—and it’s not even my dog. And yes, I do pick up all the poop.

    Can’t imagine why they yell at you…you are a good neighbor who picks up after your dog…you are rare…yes it would be nice to even have a foot high fence…
