    Oh not to worry, those wonderful dogs get treats every time we are there.....When we are having lunch they are always in on the action...Today they are getting steaks when we get there. Those two boxers are going to be in heaven....Funny thing is that my wife and I have two boxers ourselves so when we finally get moved in out there, there will be a total of four boxers patrolling the area. What the guy didn't know was the fact that the two dogs that kept him in his truck won't even bite themselves but they sure know how to put on a good show!

    My guess would be that the guy was taking the trailer to the scrap yard because it is less than a mile away from the property. The trailer is not plated or even registered at this time and only one of the tires was inflated. Without lots of work the trailers are pretty worthless but one of the guys that works with me is a genius when it comes to this stuff so they will make nice scrap haulers when they are ready.

    You bet your socks that I pressed charges. The sad thing about it is the fact that I probably would have given him one of the worst trailers to haul into the yard for himself if he had stopped by and asked. I usually leave standard scrap alone and concentrate on my e-scrap and would have allowed him to haul one of them off.

    It is amazing what asking is able to accomplish!

    That said, I hope he had a yellow puddle under his feet and a look of terror on his face.
