You Make Me Laugh – February 12, 2017

February 12, 2017 By Jodi

You make me laugh, (or smile). The sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do on a daily basis, that brings a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.

Delilah, the way you get so ticked off when you have to wear boots…

You make me laugh.

Winter decided to hit February HARD in the northeast. Last Monday or Tuesday, we had freezing rain, then Thursday we got 18 inches of snow. Friday night we got a couple more inches, we’re expecting some more today and possibly again on Wednesday.

Of course, with the wintery weather, comes the chemicals they spread on the road to help melt the snow. Whatever it is they use, it really bothers the dogs on their back feet.

Sampson has gotten use to wearing the boots, and they don’t seem to bother him.

But Delilah is another story.

When you pull out her boots, she will hide in her bed, run away from you, or try and climb into her Daddy’s lap. Most days, I’ll avoid them, but after wiping her back foot three times on Thursday’s morning walk, I drew the line, and insisted she wear them.

This does not sit well with her. When you first put them on, she gets very dramatic and lifts her feet high in the air as she waddles about the house. Then she’ll walk normally, but she refuses to potty for about the first 10 minutes. Eventually, she adjusts and goes about our walk and her business.

But she makes it very clear, she will wear them, but she won’t like them.

If I don't look, they can't see I'm wearing these ridiculous things on my feet.

If I don’t look, they can’t see I’m wearing these ridiculous things on my feet.

Sampson, Delilah and myself, want to send a BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY, to their Auntie, and my sister, Sheena.
Happy Birthday Honey, we love you more. 😀

Sampson, when you instinctively know, that you shouldn’t pull on your walk…

You make me smile. You also make a six-year old little girl, very happy.

I love pictures of my grandchildren with my dogs, and some of my favorite ones are when I’m watching from their perspective.

Pet Blogger Showcase – February 4, 2017

February 4, 2017 By Jodi

Hey guys. Thanks for joining me today for another Pet Blogger Showcase. There’s a lot going on in my little corner of the globe, and I’m working on getting back to a blogging schedule, (really, I am!) It’s just taken me a little longer to recover from some personal stuff,  and I recently signed up for an online course on Constitutional Law, SO blogging time is limited. I’m hoping to come up with a weekly or bi-weekly post, and I hope to do that soon!

In the meantime, let’s look at some cute posts from the past showcase, okay?

Reggie is learning to fetch! by Clare at Sugar and Spikes Blog. Honestly, have you ever seen anything cuter than a cat fetching a toy? One of my daughters has a cat that does this, and I could literally throw his little ball for him, ALL. DAY. LONG.

Help Make 2017 The Year These Dogs Go Home by Beth at the Daily Dog Tag – Anyone who knows me, knows I have a soft spot for a rescue dog. There are so many good dogs, sitting in shelters through no fault of their own. I love that Beth is helping to find them homes.

Playful Sister Gracie on Sister Saturday by Brian at Brian’s Home – It seems Gracie has to share the blog with some other felines in her house.

That’s it for me…have a special post you want to get some extra love on?
