the cops are after ruby again. it seems she got a wee bit too agressive with a mailman. there were no witnesses so they took the mailman's word over ruby's word. the result is our mail service was cut off. the bullshit part is the post office didn't tell us that they had discontinued delivery. after no mail for a few weeks i called and asked; "where's my feckin mail???" they took a bunch of info from me and said they'd investigate. it took 4 fucking business days for them to tell me about ruby and the cessation of service.
in order to get delivery reinstated i had to go to the post office and sign a bunch of papers promising to keep ruby under lock and key. ruby is lucky these dickheads don't share information with the animal control people.
i can now add mailmen to my official asshole list.

GRRRRRRR... i'm flying up there to bite the mailman's butt longtime. Ruby wouldn't have been after them if they weren't such dicks. She knew. Smart girl.
that's some kind of real serious chain around ruby's neck. i bet she can't chew through that!
my friends had to move their mailbox to the farthest corner of their property to get their mail service reinstated.
go figure.
pitty bull dogs are sneaky..ruby is a pitty bull dog...she'll figure out a way to get revenge.
What about "neither rain nor snow nor..." etc. not being able to stop the Postal Service?!
The absence of a pitbull clause must be an intentional omission.
That same, exact thing happened to me once back when our dog Nevada was with us. She wouldn't harm a flea and just wanted to say hello. But the mailman was skeered.
which reminds me of a neighbor's dog from years ago - her name was Ginger and she was a 3 pound barker. the mailman maced her.
I don't really know crap about Ruby other than the fact that you love her, but if she is aggressive toward others I don't blame the post office a bit and I don't blame anyone for being leary of pit bulls.
You are right though that it's wrong that they didn't let you know they wasn't delivering.
I don't know if your yard is fenced but if I had a dog these days mine would be. And the mailbox would be where the mailman didn't have to enter the yard.
I got bit a few times by dogs when I had a paper route as a kid. You just never know what might set a dog off even if that person is the nicest person and a dog lover.
In other words, dogs and their instincts are not always right. Or maybe they just hate what that person is wearing, I don't know, trying to figure out dogs is fucking like trying to figure out women.
lakota - i've been at the airport all day. your flowers are getting limp.
crazy - i found that chain in the park. it's a beauty.
yellowdog - ruby thinks she won the battle. she kept the mailman away for about 3 weeks.
josh - those were the good old days. our mailmen call in sick if they have a hangnail.
laura - i hope the taliban don't find out about our mailmen, they seem to be our achilles heel
bbc - i find dogs easier than women to figure out. if women only had a tail to wag when they were happy i'd have a better chance.

Dogs don't care about and want all the shit women want, I don't know that they are easier to figure out but they are a hell of a lot easier to get along with.
It's just that I wouldn't be inclined to screw my dog, ha ha ha.
If that is you in the picture you're a decent looking son of a bitch.
You should crop that pic and make it a profile pic. My profile pic is the real me.
Two of the coolest characters I know.
Poor Ruby! I can sympathize with her. I'd like to bite my mail person.
They really should have followed up with a letter... I mean... CRAP... they are the fecking post office.
Oh I love that Ruby..
but Cabana Boy - i DO wag my tail when i'm happy. :P Damn airlines - they dumped me off in Cancun. I tried to explain that i said CANADA but they booted me off the plane. Wagging my tail at the eyecandy in Mexico long time...
lakota - i'm dreaming of you long time.
