Dear Blog Friends –

DogDaz is coming up to our 2 year blogaversay in November and we are lucky to be blessed with a wonderful following of loyal readers and interactive commenters.
We absolutely positively want you to know, that it is Y – O – U that makes this blog what it is.
Today and everyday, we are Thankful for YOU!
————————————–
Mom is going to work far, far away from home for awhile, so the usual blog hops and weekly rants will be down to one amazing, interesting, funny, or silly picture per day.
Though we are going to miss her, we dogs get to go on a vacation to Sonja’s until Mom returns. The poor kitties have to stay home with boring V (bet they feel like losers – BOL.)
Thank you all so much for being our fans and please do keep coming around to check out the daily DogDaz Zoo post. We will check into your blogs when we return.
Thank YOU – Thank YOU – Thank YOU
See you soon!
With love , licks and laughter –

Louise (Lulu Belle) – Sofie Bear – Noel, the Christmas Cat – Nine – Stella – and Mom

It’s closed, Sofie. No more swimmy.

I don’t understand, Louise.
I still smell water somewhere.

I guess we have to wait until spring.
Happy Wednesday!

This is a Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop. Thanks to BlogPaws for the hop. Head over there and see what they are blogging about.

So glad you are joining me today for the Dogs N Pawz Blog Hop called Tuesday’s Tails! New posts go up on Tuesday but you can link up and post when you want all week-long. The whole purpose is to feature cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, etc. so when you link up is up to you! Even pets from PetFinder, are fine. Let’s just get them all homes!
Dogs N Pawz said “I also want to encourage all of you to share each other’s Tuesday’s Tails posts on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and whatever other social media channels you use. The more we share the more likely we are to get the word out!”

Let’s hop to it! The shelter is out of cages for kitties. There are also still some that are already paid for by a wonderful donor.

Tuesday’s Tails pets can all be found at the Anne Arundel County Animal Control. For more information please call (410) 222-8900 (this is Annapolis, Maryland, USA).

Sofie Bear
October 2013
I could not tell if this was her ‘ain’t I cute?’ look or ‘why are you putting your coat on and not taking me?’ look (but usually there is barking with that one.)
Enjoy your Sunday.

This is part of the Black and White Sunday Blog Hop. Thanks to My Life in Dog Years for hosting. Click here to get to know other wonderful animals and their parents and to see how you can take part in this fabulous blog hop!

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog. This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).
I thought I would be gone by now, but, snafus being as they are, I have not been able to get my Chinese Visa because of a ton of different issues, and now it looks like I will be home for another 2 weeks. That gives me 2 more weeks to enjoy the fall, when it stops raining, and to be with my family and furries.
Black and White Sunday was a rerun of my favorite Noel picture. We have these silly cardboard things on the ends of heavy gage wire, that kind of look like bugs. It was just such a perfect moment. Duh?

Noel, the Christmas Cat
Monday Mischief was our last swim in our friend Amy’s pool. And, boy were we lucky we did that because the weather turned to freezing rain and won’t stop. One day summer – next day winter – around here. Sofie is doing fine after her tangle with the rose bush. The tip of her ear is a little ragged, but she will live.

Mom! Louise has all the toys and she isn’t sharing.
I was so consumed with arrangements for the China trip that I forgot to post Tuesday’ s Tails (sorry), but Wordless Wednesday was Noel again, this time hiding behind the cactus in the kitchen window. Since she is the Christmas cat (yes, we adopted her at Christmas time, and she came with the name Noel) – I decided she is a Christmas Catactus. (MOL)
Thankful Thursday brought to mind all the smells and sounds of the fall season. Even though we had torrential rain from the backend of a Hurricane named Karen. Lots of Followers commented how much they love fall too.

Sofie always sticking her nose in everything
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us. Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.
