Mom was around a lot more than usual this month. She said it was due to something called ‘Corona.’
It sure made it nice for afternoon walks.

Monday Mischief: Don’t Judge A Toy By Its Looks
Charles here. Mom didn’t realize when she bought this toy for me that it looked like something that is deadly and scary. People told her to return it, but she wanted to teach me how to play with a food ball and it seemed like a good toy to do it with. Louise and Sofie love their food toys, but I don’t get what I am supposed to do.
By George, I think this corona looking toy has helped me figure out the game.
It is not so scary after all.

Monday Mischief: 2d Supper
Ok. I have about had it with Mr. Charles and his constant complaining that he does not get enough food! Charlie eats in a pen because he and Sofie are both food aggressive and she would kill him. So he has learned that the pen = food (my first mistake).
The dogs eat around 4:30 PM and then usually I go about getting my own meal prepared. Before Charles came to live with us (about 3 1/2 years ago), I gave Louise and Sofie a snack around 8:30 PM in their food toys to keep them busy for 30 minutes.
But Charles, who does not understand any food toy that I have given him (not sure if he is lazy or just plain goofy) has started to demand bark (you little dog people know what I mean) for a 2d supper about 10 minutes after the first. So now the 8:30 snack happens at about 6 PM. (My second mistake).
Charles has decided that anytime I sit down, whether at the kitchen table or in the living room, that must mean it is snack time.
Oh my dog!!! I have created a monster. Hence the picture of the unhappy Charlie who jumps in his pen and pines, mopes, and then YIPS! Hard to ignore, though I do try.
Do you get Second Supper?

Monday Mischief: Social Distancing
Mom has decided that since she must stay 6 feet away from all other humans that a dog leash is a perfect 6-foot tool to ensure the perfect distance is achieved. We learned a new term last week called ‘social distancing.’ The perfect way to practice social distancing is to have at least 2 dogs, but 3 or even 4 may be better, all on 6-foot leads, spread out around the human at the center.
On a serious note, please take this terrible earth-shattering COVID-19 situation seriously my friends. Only you can protect you and your loved ones. We have a great deal to learn about this virus, transmission, illness, and recovery. This is not a drill! Wash your paws for at least 20 seconds (I sing the ABC alphabet song), limit human contact (which means 4X as many pet cuddles on a normal day), and be smarter about what you put in your mouth (tell Sofie that, please).
Mom is keeping us very close today because she needs to be in a good vibe bubble: it is her birthday and the world is making her feel older than dirt.

Black and White Sunday: Happy 13th Noel
Noel, the Christmas-cat, will be 13 years young on Tuesday. If you search ‘Noel’ on the sidebar, you will probably find more posts at the DogDaz Zoo on her then any of the other animals. Maybe because she is the oldest of the current pack, or maybe because she is so photogenic. I can’t believe that this little white terribly ill rescued kitten grew into this amazing white rabbit-fur purr machine. Noel has the Feline Herpes (FVR) virus, which almost left her blind. I had to carry her for a month close to my chest to keep her breathing and now look at her: Queen of the Zoo.
Happy Birthday, Queen Noel!

Black and White Sunday: Daylight
I thought this was a perfect black and white of Louise from 2016 for Daylight Savings Day. A shiny black dog lying in the spring sun.
Happy Black and White Sunday!

Wonderful Wednesday: Frienemies
Charles wanted to lie on the blanket, but Mini Cooper got there first!
Usually, she lies on the towel on the pillow to the right, but she changed her mind. So shortly after this shot, Charlie climbed up on the pillow and laid there instead.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Monday Mischief: February Leapt
The month of February, even with an extra day, seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.
Ending the month thinking of my Squash E. Bear, gone 10 years in February. Always in my heart!

Wonderful Wednesday: Sharing A Nap
I am used to Nine stealing Louise’s bed. He does it often. And Lulu usually doesn’t mind. She sleeps on the carpet instead.
But for some reason, Lulu decided she wanted to be in her bed even if Nine was there. This is something I have never seen before at the DogDaz Zoo. Especially because there is another dog bed right next to that one that Louise could have settled into. They never cease to amaze me.
Do you cuddle in bed with other animals?
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
