Welcome to this week’s edition of Follow-Up Friday, the blog hop that lets you wrap up your week and leads you right into the weekend.
Follow-Up Friday Blog Hop
This is the second time for this week’s co-hostess. If you follow her blog you’ll notice her dogs have been complaining a bit lately as she’s been doing a little bit of traveling.
When she’s not in the tropics or Arizona, she’s home taking care of her crew consisting of Teddy, Ash and Scout. She recently helped her son save a furry baby from the pound. Please help me in welcoming Lisa from Dogs N Pawz.
Thank you Lisa for co-hostessing with me this week!
I’ve decided to do something a little different this week. Since I’ve gotten so behind in responding to my comments, I’ve decided to follow some you and answer some questions along with my follow-up.
Savvy?
Somewhere Over the Rainbow – Update
When I spoke with Steve and Bonnie’s daughter last week, she told me they already have their next Greyhound adoption in the works. I’m hoping I get pictures. 🙂
Under the Weather – Update
2 Brown Dawgs asked – Could he have scrapped it on some hard snow and is now just licking out of habit?
Anything’s possible at this point. When I spoke with the Holistic Vet’s assistant, she said he could even be licking it as a form of acupressure. For instance, his tummy feels nauseous but when he has pressure on his wrist joint, the nausea goes away.
In the meantime, I’m letting the air get at it when we’re home to monitor him and wrapping it with medicine when we can’t.
The Trash Collector – Author’s Note
Julie said- What do you think Sampson does when she is being naughty?
I’ve thought about this a lot actually Julie. When I picture it, I imagine Sampson rolling his eyes, and shaking his head.
Frankie Furter asked – So WHO was the Bad one??? Delia or Dad????
Donna asked – who could you blame for this one?
All I can say to both of those questions is Hubby hates getting called out on the blog, but I know and you know who was at fault. He knows too. 😉
Jackie said – A hungry pup’s gotta do what a hungry pup’s gotta do! I don’t think Rita would do that, but once we were out past our beagle’s dinner time. We came home all apologetic and rushed to feed her – when we noticed that the door to the closet w/ her food bag was ajar, and that her sides were BULGING. At the time I had no idea that overeating so much could kill a dog. We had to walk her MANY times that night! (And we lived on the 11th floor at the time – so no easy feat.)
All I can say is WOW.
Zoned Out – Author’s Note
Sue asked – I don’t know if you believe in such things, but have you considered trying a session with an animal communicator to see what Delilah is thinking?
I actually do believe in that Sue, and I have used an animal communicator when Delilah was having her health issues, the only thing is I didn’t think that communicator was very accurate, so if you have any suggestions I’d love to hear them.
ACD6Pack said – My first thought was maybe something wrong with her hearing but since we have a deaf dog and a partially deaf one that’s my first thought.
My question to you is do you let your deaf dogs run off-leash and how do you recall them?
Wordless Wednesday – Update
First let me say, I really love this caption the photo thing, you all have such great answers!!
Here’s mine.

This ‘N That Thursday – Author’s Note
I’m super excited that 2 Brown Dawgs decided to make this into a Blog Hop, congratulations!
Gizmo said – Was the instigating dog’s owner paying attention? or did she just drop the leash? Was she the one you showed on the cellphone?
Yes Tegan’s owner was paying attention, except she’s recently had surgery on her knee and isn’t as quick as she could be. And no, it was not the lady with the cell phone, she wasn’t there this week.
All Things Collie said – What really want to know about is all natural flea and tick repellents, and if they are effective. I really hate having to use K-9 Advantage/Frontline.
I plan on doing that not this coming Wednesday but the following one. I’ve been experimenting with a natural protocol for the last two years and am very happy with what we’re currently using.
I can’t wait to share that with you.
That’s all I’ve got for you this week, thanks for joining us and have a wonderful weekend and a great Easter.
Many thanks to Lisa and the crew at Dogs N Pawz for co-hostessing with me this week. If you don’t already know Lisa, stop by and say hello to Scout, Ash and Teddy.
This is the co-hosted Follow-up Friday blop hop hosted by Dogs N Pawz and Heart Like a Dog, Follow-up Friday
Great round up and we are still chuckling over the trash collector. Have a fabulous Furday.
Best wishes Molly
When I joined the hop today something strange happened with the linky thing. All of a sudden, my blog is the only one listed? :-0 Boy, when I break something, I really break it!!
Love your caption, Jodi 🙂 I’ll email you about an animal communicator I’m working with. (And I’ll be blogging about it in the future.)
Liked your quote but was hoping you would post some of the quotes that you received…darn! Next time!
How about it I do a few tomorrow, Caren?
Happy HOPPY Easter to You.
You say that’s all you have for this week, I say that is quite a load! Happy Easter weekend!
Absolutely loved your caption…it’s perfect…Wishing you and your family a happy and peaceful Easter
Excellent follow-up! Thanks for answering my question. I thought maybe it was ice because both Freighter and Sunny had injuries to the tops of their feet last week due to the hard snow in the field. They were small though and neither was licking them so it maybe what you are thinking with Sampson.
Thanks you so much for the kind words and encouragement about TNT. 🙂 I think it went over well thanks to everyone who participated!
Hi Y’all!
Paws crossed for Sampson’s paw…hope it gets well quickly. Love Delilah!
Y’all come by now,
Hawk aka BrownDog
Great post this morning, Jodi! I love the way you handled the questions!
I also love your caption for the photo! Have a great day, great weekend, and a Happy, Hoppy Easter! (With hubby taking a 4-day weekend, I doubt I’ll have a chance to post anything but you never know.)
A perfect way to do a ‘follow-up’! Looking forward to hearing about your natural flea/tick repellent.
Great Follow Up Miss Jodi! I actually like the format of responding to some of the comments you received during the week. Excellent idea!
Have a great weekend.

P.S. Delihah’s limerick is “killing” me…this is the hardest rhyme-scheme yet. BOL Limericks will be going into April so hers will be coming, don’t you worry.
Thanks for letting us co-host FUF with you today! We enjoy participating in FUF on the Fridays that mom isn’t out galavanting around!
Answering comments was a great idea. We hope Sampson’s paw is better. Poor Sampson!
When mommy gets all of Bart’s info together, yeah…his name is Bart not Bert, she will email it to you. We hope Bart can find a forever home real soon! Mommy had a brain fart and called him Bert on our blog!
Great Follow Up Friday. Have a great weekend. Thanks for the blog hop!
Lucky beagle… I can’t for the life of me figure out how to open the cabinet where my food is. Curse this tiny brain!
Love and licks,
Cupcake
We enjoy your follow ups as a way to tie up loose ends. Hope the paw mystery is solved soon. Have a great Easter weekend.
I’m not the one who made the comment about deaf dogs, but I’ll tell you what we do with Howie. He gets to be off leash in dog parks where I can see every part of the park, and where I can get to every part of the park in a reasonable amount of time. He LOVES to explore and move at his own pace, so as long as I can keep track of him, and get to him if need be, we let him do so.
If he’s close enough, we can clap to get his attention because he can feel the air pressure change.
Great idea for a follow up Jodi! Plus, I had missed this is the comments:
“What do you think Sampson does when she is being naughty?”
Too cute. I wonder if Leah rolls her eyes at Toby too.
Perfect caption. And yes, we are all dancing as fast as we can. The fact that we are even typing is amazing. LOL Happy Holiday
Love the caption and love the quote

Okay I stopped by yesterday, read your post and apparently promptly left without commenting…geesh!
I love your caption and the caption the photo posts. I too am glad that 2 Brown Dawgs made her This ‘N That Thursday in to a blog hop 🙂
Hi Jodi,
I love your caption to the wednesday photo – I think all of us should do that more often, heck, who cares if someones watching, they can join in too!!
Have a fun day,
Your pal Snoopy 🙂
