The old boy is doing great. He is averaging one good shit a day in the morning plus one runny one at night depending on how much swimming he's done. We are not giving him any bones of any species but have given him a rawhide or two since he came home. I got one of those wireless invisible fences to try to keep him home but frankly, think I may have wasted my money because the range is pretty short and as you have all seen, the hacienda is surrounded by water. With my previous lab I buried an invisible fence wire under the water and tried to mark his boundary with buoyed drink bottles but the bottles just tortured the Lab as he wanted to retrieve them.

Fuck, it's complicated. And not made better that I let him keep his nuts. If he was neutered he'd be the Ace of Aces- King of Kings, Lord of Lords of all dogs I've had, ever. But his nuts lead him off two or three times a week- And knowing you got 10k or so wandering the countryside directed by two walnut sized dog testicles is not a good feeling.
