Thanks to everyone for the nice comments and private emails. It seems this is common place in dogs so I'll try to take comfort in being one of the masses that have had a friend do something not so nice to them and look at the positive. I really didnt' need another dog anyway. :o) Cindy www.cinosamgsd.com Cindy www.cinosamgsd.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
