  SweetiePie:

  I left out some dazzle...

  DaddysKat:

  And ... for the dazzle question of the day (from me) ...

  

  Yes, my conspiracy theory loving dogs have a theory about this dazzle stuff.

  That's our Welsh Springer Spaniel Rusti (named for her reddish color) on the left.  That's her English Springer Spaniel partner in crime on the right.  We adopted him from English Springer Rescue 3 yrs ago.  His original family had to give him and his brother up for adoption after they lost their jobs, lost their house, and the ensuing divorce.  ESR decided to place the brothers separately.  The two brothers were named Razzle & Dazzle.

  We got Dazzle.

  Rusti and Dazzle look like beautiful dogs ... I just wonder if you have them wear the tinfoil when you play (and if so, does it help your game?)

  My 3 ... a female border collie named Cheyenne, a male mini Aussie named Cody and their son (a hybrid mini Border-Aussie named Ryker).  They are extremely smart dogs and well trained.  I can run with them off leash easily and they will stay right next to me.  Since I have to abide the leash law, I run with them carrying a leash.

  I'm a total dog lover ... I've got nothing against cats ... as long as they are someone else's.  Never really liked cats much!

  And ... for the dazzle question of the day (from me) ... the first member (excluding SP, Mantis and Andyson) to name the boat which Lincoln and Stephens held the peace conference on will receive a free sleeve of golf balls!

  I guess there's no one out there that wants a free sleeve of balls!  I'll leave this trivia question open for a few more hours, then I'll give the answer and kill the gift idea.
