Theory Becomes Reality

Ringo: Back when I was raising Morgan Horses, I was taught by my Vet how to do that procedure on my bred mares to check for signs of being pregnant (in foal). I got good at it and kept a supply of those long latex gloves used in doing the job. I got so good at it my neighbors would ask me to check their mares too. It is not difficult and is not messy if one uses a little caution. I was never kicked or even stepped on. ....

My problem then was, I was only 10- or 11, still short too. This cow had plenty to scoop out and I also got squirted on. Non wonder Weh my friend Shane hated being home early Saturdays.:D
 
Sir, I admire your bravado, your knowledge, your manual dexterity, & your will to go where few men have gone before!
 
Qualifications?

So..........do you think my sticking a thumb up the arse of a Pit Bull qualifies me for a position on the staff of the Starship USS Enterprise? Beam me up Scotty, I'm ready......... :-)
 
Y'know, Big Cholla, I've always been favorably impressed with your posts, but I've really got to hand it to you on this one. You are definitely a better man than I am.

However, I think I would've done more than just washing my thumb off in the doggy drinking fountain. On the positive side, though, it'll sure keep you from sucking your thumb!:D
 
A thumb in a dog is one thing but a whole arm in a cow or a horse is another, if I ever had to do that, I would make drink a few gallons of kaopectate first. :eek:

Thanks! When I got home and told the wife this story the lunch dishes were waiting to be washed. My wife after a few comments questioning my sanity asked me if I had scrubbed my hand as of yet. I said, "No, I thought that I would go wash the dishes for you since that always gets my hands really clean." She threw several doggy toys at me, fortunately they were all very soft toys. ......... :-)

My G'Pa told me of the times the circus came to Baltimore (downtown)..He and some other kids would get paid to put on a long rubber glove, climb up on a stool (no pun intended) and reach up the elephants butt and remove any manner of digested hay, so the elephants wouldn't drop it on the street during the parade, or in the ring in the tent.. My G'pa wouldn't tell a tale tale?? would he..??

I wonder if that would work for my colonoscopy, gotta be better than that vile stuff you have to drink!:mad:
 
:eek: Sorry but no, and HELL no, if I gotta do that to make a dog let go of something I'll choose the other two options:

Let'em chew until they wanna let go.

Or just shoot one and get it over with....

In the part of Arkansas that I know, the Pit Bull that released his bite immediately when a thumb went up his arse would have been shot for not being aggressive enough. The Pit Bull that got bit and couldn't do a thing about it would have also been shot for not being aggressive enough. So any 'engagement' would have been off before it got started. .... :-)
 
I was reminded of the Travis McGee novel written by the late John D McDonald, I think it was "A deadly shade of Gold". The hero is attacked by Dobermans after clearing a fence and he beats the charging dog by grabbing paws and flinging it with the momentum over his falling back. He recalled a day of training by a British Officer who claimed it would take all the fight out of them.
An acquaintance used a peeled branch once on a mare that was down in the back country struggling and in such a state of panic and wear she could not get up. The penetration was not anal but got her moving and out of the hills. No one other than a great horseman would have been able to deal with her and calm her down afterwards though.
 
I would definitely be afraid of being bit doing that. I never said I was brave which is also why I couldn't be a LEO also.
IMO the man with the attacking dog knew his dog was going to go after the other man's dogs so he needed a thumb up his rectum for letting his dog loose in the pen. That was about stupid.
 
I Feel Free Now

Only because the OP brought the whole issue up
I can finally admit this is exactly how I lost most of my
right thumb in 1976.

Because of the shame and likely disgust of of others I
have always told people I lost it in a bowling accident.

Most believed me...............

I feel this is the place to finally come out

Thank You All
