Monday Mischief: Reflection
Sometimes at night, I have no idea where the dogs are in the yard. Usually I can see Sofie’s blond fur reflecting some light. But Louise, in all her sleek and beautiful blackness, disappears into the darkness. I try to keep a reflective collar on her so that I can find her. Even with that, she sometimes comes running out of no where in the night and scares the pants off of me. And, if she is busy with some squirrel or hole digging and does not want to come in, there is no way that I am finding her at night. Nights are made for mischief and black dogs can rule the night!

Black and White Sunday: Being Dog
This is the time of year that I look at the year past, and try to make amends for any wrong doing, and then look ahead to the year to come, hopefully with a clean slate. Dogs don’t know about that stuff. Anything they did, good or bad, is in the past, and they just move on from there. They tend to live in the moment. I aspire to be more like a dog sometimes. The past, is gone, I can remember it and learn from it, but I can not change it. Staying in the past will only make me sad. I always try to be a better human going forward. That is something that I can affect. But, on the other hand, worrying too much about the future can make me anxious. It is best not to go too far out (except maybe with retirement planning :-)). Being present, being in the now, being ‘dog,’ seems to be a great place to be.
Happy Sunday!

Wordless Wednesday: Watching
So many little humans getting off the school bus.
Mojo and Zelda are walking with their human. NO FAIR!
There’s a squirrel in the tree. Let me at it!
Where’s that fox? I smell it.
What’s all that catawalling down at the house with those 4 cats?
I love when Mom leaves the window open.
Hope you are having a great Wednesday.

Monday Mischief: Hoover (aka Louise), the Plott Hound
Louise is such a hound dog. I know people think she is a little Labrador, but actually, she is much more hound. I am thinking Plott hound. I actually found pictures of Plott hounds on the internet that look exactly like her.
She hates water for one thing (aren’t labs supposed to love water?). And she doesn’t have webbed feet. Her nose is stuck to the ground always trailing some scent. She can smell a fox a mile away. I think I am going to rename her ‘Hoover,’ after the vacuum cleaner. Lulu, I think I found your family tree. Not that it is really important, but sometimes knowing the linage of your dog can help you with training, medical, and other issues. They say Plott Hounds are loyal and stubborn. That would be my girl!

Wordless Wednesday: Kissing Summer Good Bye
Tomorrow (September 22) at 10:21 am EDT it will officially be Autumn for us (the Autumnal Equinox). How can that have happened already? Wasn’t it just spring? There is nothing more incredible than the changing of the seasons. Mom loves autumn best of all. She loves the crisper days, and the fall tones of orange, yellow, brown and red. As the plants end their growth cycles and creatures go south or under ground, it makes us aware of the renewal that will come on the other side of winter. Sofie and I are both born in fall. Maybe that is why Mom loves this season so much? I was born on Halloween and Sofie on Thanksgiving (or at least that is what Mom tells us). As we kiss summer good bye, we say thank you to the earth for the wonderful colors, warm waters, butterflies and birds. Bye Bye, Summer. – Love, Louise
Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Monday Mischief: The Alphabet Game
Mom thinks that we are always spelling out words.
We don’t know how to spell, Mom! You are silly.
