Interesting...two people repped me for this post today. I just acquired fencing to put up dog kennels! Someone was giving it away and I grabbed it! I have a friend putting it up for me and next I need to work on some dog houses. Now the dogs can come to me and be quarantined outside until they see the vet and have enuf time to display symptoms if they are harboring any contagious diseases.

I am fencing the back yard and will be putting up a kennel to isolate them from my personal pets until we get a health clearance..then they can come into the house...

I am a Master Gardener too and for my community service I will be setting up some kind of horticulture therapy activity. One year I put in a children's garden for an inner city program that worked with kids who were infected or affected by HIV. This years activity will be smaller..I have alot on my plate right now but I will think of something.
