    Dogs are prone to just munch on any ole plant, are they? Like cats do? We’ve got a lovely azalea in the backyard, although I’ve never seen Coco sampling from it. He doesn’t even do his crapping near it…prefers the area directly beside the clothesline…ummm, sweet aroma of dog sh*t on freshly laundered clothing. Love it.

    Maybe I’m giving dogs too much credit, but don’t they have an innate sense of what’s good and bad out in the wild? (well, as wildas a backyard can get)

    Oh, and the branching ivy. That’s not the same as kudzu, right? We have one or the other back there, too.
