*Barking of the Dogs
As an adult, in every place I have ever lived there have been dog issues. The issues were always mine, but only once the dog was. As a child and teen, there were various family dogs but I never participated in their care and barely acknowledged their existence. I was a cat person and took consistent care of the cats and labeled them as mine.
I like dogs, really, as long as their friendly, allow me to talk baby talk to them, don’t expect me to walk them, and especially, don’t expect me to pick up after them. The one dog I owned as an adult was exceptional. He was a Lhasa Apso named Sam and he was the sweetest most loving dog you could imagine. I miss him every day.
I didn’t have another dog after Sam because it didn’t seem fair to a dog with my work schedule. A cat was more conducive. I love cats so our family pet Tigger years later, was a perfect fit. For nineteen years he never failed to be the perfect family pet. I miss him every day also.
During Tigger’s lifetime, we lived in two different homes but between selling the first and buying the second, we rented for nine months. There were dog issues in each one. It’s like, dogs knew I couldn’t have one and were laughing at me. Paranoid? Indeed. I believe they mocked me.
In my first home I owned, Sam lived until I carried my son. After Dave was born the neighbor in the back allowed his dog to be tied up all night outside; not the brightest person in the world. The dog, understandably, barked most of the night. So, the next day I sent my husband to speak to the man and the dog never barked again. It takes a man; not!
Divorce happened several years later and that is when Tigger came to be a part of our little family. A close friend and neighbor moved out of the home next door and a new neighbor moved in with two dogs, a husband, and a couple kids. I tried to be nice, but, well, she really wasn’t which added to the barking aggravation. It made it worse. The world should know that being nice goes very far and softens any aggravation a person’s existence may bring. So, I had to speak to the husband since I didn’t have one of my own to do the dirty work and from that point on the neighbor stopped letting the dogs out at six am. We compromised on 730…my wake-up time. Battle won, war still waging.
The dogs next-door were two black labs and that breed can be snotty if they feel their territory threatened in any way. Fortunately, their yard bordered my garage and a small section of fencing; another battle won. Dogs barked intermittently and their owners continued to prove to be distasteful, to say the least. Strange would be accurate, selfish appropriate.
Finally, it was time to sell my home in a good market and move on and appropriately for me, closer to the beach. Our current home had been a two-mile car ride to the closest beach and I wanted to be able to ride our bikes there. My son was basically growing up in the back seat of my car as he was transported from event to event and place to place. He wanted to learn to surf and a beach house would be apropos. So, we packed up and began a grand adventure searching for the perfect beach house.
While on our journey we moved to a winter rental in another shore town. There were no dogs, at first. So quiet was this uptight seashore community that I enjoyed the brief solitude and introspection. A fierce snowstorm settled in that winter and almost immediately dog poo showed up along the street curbs, everywhere. Even in the snottiest towns of America, with the highest fines for lack of pooper scooping, people can be lazy if they think no one will notice. I garnered solace from the fact that we would not be living there forever.
The winter rental was up and the house I had in attorney review had to be canceled or rather, run away from. The new home was the Manasquan, lagoon home I thought I wanted with the intentions that my son could have his own boat and enjoy a season or two at the shore, but I panicked at the last minute when the inspection report came in. The only good thing about the house was that it did not have termites and that was only because termites can’t swim. The next rental was a bomb, but it was summer at the shore and that was just the way it was. At least no dogs were there, but that should have been my first clue. Not even the dogs would live here.
I found our second home but the sellers could not move for two months. Battle won; war ongoing. I could not take one more second in our summer shack and moved in with a ‘friend’ in her huge shore home in one of the richest communities at the shore, with her dog. I have friend in air quotes because this was not a gift, this was a deal. I took care of her mother over the following winter, something I did not have time for and should not have been expected to do. Some friends are thieves in disguise. Dog=thieving ‘friend’= war ongoing.
That dog barked like a banshee but was friendly, most of the time. It was what it was. Our bird died while we lived there. He knew.
We took occupation of the second home October first. The next-door neighbor moved in about a month before us. They had a nasty, small, black, mixed breed that barked like an idiot. It wasn’t for protection; this was the suburbs. It was rude and nasty like them.
I tried everything. The silent dog bark eliminator beeper I bought online for $40 worked for a little while. Eight long years later, after yelling, bitching, pissing, and moaning, I finally called the cops. The neighbors had gone out and left the dog outside to bark at 1130 at night, waking me up two hours before I had to get up at 2 am for a commercial job I had just picked up. I ran into a local policeman at the post office and told him what happened. He said I should have called years ago. Battle won. War still engaged.
I sold that house under an intense amount of stress and financial loss. I was heartbroken, wrecked, and totally disillusioned. It was under this cloud of sadness and depression that I moved to a dog less neighborhood a half hour south. There was no relief, no war concessions, no ending, just coping. There were no dogs to comfort, distract, or annoy me. Life got very quiet. Then Sandy rolled into and through my life, literally and figuratively.
I moved in with family for nine months. There were two dogs there. Then one. Then two. Now one. I loved each of these dogs and still, love the last one. They were all kind, sweet, loving, comforting, and I miss not living with them. The neighborhood dogs there, however, left a lot to be desired. It seems that people move into a rural area and believe that anything goes. Sometimes they believe their dogs should be allowed to run free throughout the woods that border all these new neighborhoods. As long as I made it safely from the car to the house without incident, I considered it a good day.
Time moved on and so did I, this time very alone. My son was growing quickly through the stages of his life and no longer lived with me. I suppose it was a good thing since I no longer had a house but instead lived in a one-bedroom apartment. Life changed but the war raged on.
The new apartment was a garage apartment in a bucolic atmosphere that had a yappy tiny toy poodle with a man that used to push her around the neighborhood in a pink carriage. I don’t know which was worse; his obnoxious wife, him, the dog, the carriage, or his belching every morning the minute he opened the back door. It was the music of my morning as I sat on my north facing upper deck.
There were no dogs on the other side of my apartment, just an old man I had a running feud with until the last two months I lived there. We are now Besties. Coincidence? I think not. There was, however, a big black Lab behind me that the owner rarely made sure stayed in the yard. I heard a rustle and a growl during my last four months there. I looked over the railing and he looked up at me and started to wag his tail and pant. A message? Absolutely! Time to go. I was purging. Clearing out the cancerous cells, the bad vibes, the alcoholics I used to allow in my life, the sadness, the helplessness, the misguiding thinking, and the lessons learned. Battle won; war continued.
Now I look at the ocean from all the east facing windows in my multi-level apartment. It’s beautiful. I watch the sunrise. I watch the birds. I’m on top of the world and under a hot tub. I brought beautiful energy to this little neighborhood and the opportunity to clear out the heaviness that had festered here without anyone’s knowledge.
It’s quiet in the winter. Too quiet. When spring finally comes, the neighborhood bursts with life. All the birds return with the people. I wake up before sunrise, open my door to nowhere, and look out over the I love, for now. This is the someplace that allows me to listen to beautiful morning doves until the new Labradoodle puppy next door is let out to pee at 615am and then yelps for twenty minutes until he is let back in. He had an older brother that was there last year greeting me every morning and telling me to get my lazy ass out of bed and enjoy life. After all, the sun was about to rise, the battles were won, my comrades in arms were still with me, and the wars were all over.

“ Some games in life, the only way you win is you don’t play” #GaryHalbert / I know a lot of coaches who are running a business that will only ruin their passion for training, which is the last thing you want to do. / This lesson can be applied to so many places in your life, I am glad this was shared @joepolish thank you, brother ✊✊✊ / #Repost @joepolish with @get_repost ・・・ There’s a quote the late, great copywriter Gary Halbert shared with me many years ago when I was going through one of the most challenging times of my life…⠀ .⠀ “Some games in life the only way you win is you don’t play.”⠀ .⠀ No matter the game you’re playing – business or personal – set them up so you’re winning.⠀ .⠀ And, no matter what, there are going to be certain games that aren’t worth playing.⠀ .⠀ For example, there’s no such thing as a good business deal with a bad partner. It doesn’t matter how smart or strategic they are if you aren’t aligned. So, only align yourself with people that are aligned with you.⠀ .⠀ There are all kinds of tools we use in Genius Network – such as our ‘Not To Do List” “Write Yourself A Swimming Pool” and “My Genius Network” – you can use to plan, think and organize your thoughts, relationships, objectives and ideas.⠀ .⠀ Everyone has their own criteria of what games are worth playing and what winning them would mean.⠀ .⠀ My criteria is E.L.F.: “Is this person / activity / project / etc. Easy, Lucrative and Fun?”⠀ .⠀ What’s yours?⠀ .⠀ Figure out what games will enhance what you’re already doing.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #entrepreneurship #entrepreneurs #copywriting #motivation #success #wisdom #investing #wealth #money #ambition #hardwork #ceo #startup #business #businessman #games #grind #entrepreneur #entrepreneurlifestyle #productive #moneymaker #rainmaker #businesspassion #hustle #GeniusNetworkAnnualEvent #GeniusNetwork #successquotes #JoePolish #businessowners #marketing (at Manasquan Underground Strength Gym) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoQC6CxhKJL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17fxpbwd9gff
