I don’t know where you are, but to find this out, you are far better off by going to a car audio shop if you are anywhere near one, and seeing what’s available. We have no idea what you want in the way of power, convenience, or personal tastes. We just put a Kenwood 6-disk head unit/changer in our ‘92 Sport for about $450 or so, installed. Stock speakers, and it sounds great. >can i add daytime running lights to mine? i do have autolamp >um thats about it >please email me >-Ryan

Actually, I’ve never had to drag any of my dogs in.  They actually LIKE me, Jer, and like to hear "good girl Delilah, good come, come on, Delilah" and come with me willingly. It’s a way of letting them know what it is I want of them.  If they don’t come, I give the firm command again and then start again with the fun running with them and praising as we go in together.  But then, you wouldn’t know any of that because your dogs are so literally shared shitless of you that they would have to be dragged anywhere they associate with you.  As for your comment on ow I get men, are you asking me for advice on how to catch a man, Jer?  I am sure there are other ng’s for that kind of discussion, but if you really need help, I’ll see what I can do to find you some.  Good luck in your man hunt but please stay away from the dogs.Paula

Actually, I’ve never had to drag any of my dogs in.  They actually LIKE me, Jer, and like to hear "good girl Delilah, good come, come on, Delilah" and come with me willingly. It’s a way of letting them know what it is I want of them.  If they don’t come, I give the firm command again and then start again with the fun running with them and praising as we go in together.  But then, you wouldn’t know any of that because your dogs are so literally shared shitless of you that they would have to be dragged anywhere they associate with you.  As for your comment on ow I get men, are you asking me for advice on how to catch a man, Jer?  I am sure there are other ng’s for that kind of discussion, but if you really need help, I’ll see what I can do to find you some.  Good luck in your man hunt but please stay away from the dogs.Paula

I let my dog stay outside and play longer by herself if she wants to.  I have two ways of saying I am going in.  One is "Are you coming?" and if she wants to she comes in and if she doesn’t she stays and plays outside a while and comes to the door when she wants back in.  When she can’t stay out and I need her to come in I say "Come on, Delilah, and she is expected to follow me.  Sometimes she still tries to weasle out a few more minutes, but I am firm because I want her to know that is a command, not an optional question.  So, if you don’t mind her out, use one way of going in, and distinguish a different one for if she needs to come in with you.  If she, oops, I think it was a he and I’m saying she because mine’s a girl. If he refuses when you command, corner him, get the leash on him and take him in with you, all the time praising him and acting like it is fun, but being very firm in that he has no other options. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > I have a 3 1/2 month old shiba-inu.  I love taking him to the my back yard > and see him running and playing around.  However, everytime I am about to > take him back to the house, he does not want to.  He doesn’t seem to be > tired of 2 hours playing in my back yard and still wants to stay outside. > When I say " let’s go home" and about to put lead on him.  He will run away, > and try not the let me catch him.  I have tried many way to take him back to > the house ( cookies, toys ), but these methods never work.  Can anyone help > me, please~ > miki

Actually, I’ve never had to drag any of my dogs in.  They actually LIKE me, Jer, and like to hear "good girl Delilah, good come, come on, Delilah" and come with me willingly. It’s a way of letting them know what it is I want of them.  If they don’t come, I give the firm command again and then start again with the fun running with them and praising as we go in together.  But then, you wouldn’t know any of that because your dogs are so literally shared shitless of you that they would have to be dragged anywhere they associate with you.  As for your comment on ow I get men, are you asking me for advice on how to catch a man, Jer?  I am sure there are other ng’s for that kind of discussion, but if you really need help, I’ll see what I can do to find you some.  Good luck in your man hunt but please stay away from the dogs.Paula

I let my dog stay outside and play longer by herself if she wants to.  I have two ways of saying I am going in.  One is "Are you coming?" and if she wants to she comes in and if she doesn’t she stays and plays outside a while and comes to the door when she wants back in.  When she can’t stay out and I need her to come in I say "Come on, Delilah, and she is expected to follow me.  Sometimes she still tries to weasle out a few more minutes, but I am firm because I want her to know that is a command, not an optional question.  So, if you don’t mind her out, use one way of going in, and distinguish a different one for if she needs to come in with you.  If she, oops, I think it was a he and I’m saying she because mine’s a girl.
