Comments on: Dog is God Spelled Backwards http://blog.englishshepherdcentral.com/2009/02/dog-is-god-spelled-backwards/ --dedicated to the dogs that have blessed my life with their wisdom - by Lynda McCall Sun, 18 Jul 2010 19:25:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Lynda http://blog.englishshepherdcentral.com/2009/02/dog-is-god-spelled-backwards/comment-page-1/#comment-651 Lynda Fri, 21 Aug 2009 20:28:51 +0000 http://blog.englishshepherdcentral.com/?p=203#comment-651 You know, it is possible that your dog was barking to tell you to beware of that loud new machine. She was worried about you and the barking was her way of trying to communicate her apprehension to you. I have had a similar experience many times. If I maintain a calm attitude and let the dog explore the machine in a "calm" state.. it seems to calm dog. I can't tell you how many times a dog has tried to save my life and a couple of times my life actually was in danger.

I wanted to try it out immediately. I didn't want Kim the dog out of the house, but she was barking non-stop. Normally she doesn't do this, and so I wanted to show her who's the boss. I was getting annoyed with her. As I was trying to gesture and tell her to 'stop barking' and the trimmer cut right across the electrical cord, ending my 'good deed for the day' in less than two minutes. I now get the joke why people say, "Dog is God spelt backwards." She won. My husband had just bought me a new tree/shrub trimmer at noon, as our daughter used to do this task very well for us.
