Laid Up......with a smelly dog

What a pair Chris and Gabby are. Lets start with Chris first. On Monday Chris threw out his back starting a chain saw. This isn't the first time he's done this. Last time I came home from work to find him immobile on the ground in horrible pain; it wasn't that bad this time but bad enough. Chris spends most of his evenings now on the floor with a heating pad and which ever one of the dogs wants to torment him (Maggee's turn in this photo, she's our 2 yr old).

Now for Gabby (our oldest dog, 10 yrs). Last evening we're putting sheets on our bed and Chris keeps saying he smells something funny/gross. I know it's not the sheets so we both shoot our eyes to the only other thing in the room...Gabby. Chris insected her and couldn't see anything, however from my vantage point I can clearly see she has "something" smeared on her side. Upon further inspection it became very evident that Gabby had indeed rolled in fresh dog poop after being outside. The photos below doesn't do the mess justice because the orange marking on her side hides it nicely. But beleive me it was there and what a smelly mess!
Good girl Gabby.

Hi Chris and Michelle,
Glad you told me about this site as I sure enjoyed all the pictures. They are great and it keep people closer when they live away. We are going to Steve's the 4th of July for a week. We are looking forward to it. I want my husband to get away from work and enjoy himself. I will talk with you soon. Take care. Love, Nancy
