On Black and White Sunday yesterday, I showed you the lovely little duck family taking their first float on the river. When we got to the dock the dogs were beside themselves wanting to spoil the idealic moment. They ran from dock to dock and I had to stop them several times from jumping in. Then Louise ran down the boat ramp and Sofie followed, and I had all I could do to stop them from swimming any further out. I do not know what they would do to the ducklings, but I do not want to find out. Then of course, as we walk up the hill to the house, at the corner, in the middle of the road, are Harold and Maude, the male and female pair that happen to be living under a bush by the house. Sofie was beside herself again. But at least the big one’s can fly. Though usually they fly right into my back yard pool. But that is for another post.
I did not get a picture of them swimming because I was to busy yelling at them too come back!
(No ducks or dogs were harmed in this adventure.)

Sunday Morning Swim
The first float for the duck family. This is the real overcast color that day (so it is not really a black and white photo), but it looked so close to a B&W and it was too cute not to publish. Come back tomorrow when I show you who is standing only a few feet away trying desperately to spoil the fun.
I count 8 ducklings – how many do you count?
Happy Sunday!

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 got home Saturday with Peanut from college. She is now home for the summer. The animals were so happy to see her. Now we are back to life as normal (is there such a thing?) at the zoo.
Blogfriends thought that the Sunday Flat Dogs were very cute, and flat. Now that it is getting hot and muggy out the dogs seem to be getting flatter and flatter.
Stella is so in love with K8 and she never leaves her alone, as you saw on Monday Mischief. She hides in K8’s room almost all the time and waits for her to come home from work to play, play, play. It is hard being the youngest in a big family. I understand Stella, I’m the baby too.
Stella loves K8 (and k8’s bed)
Sofie thought it was pretty funny that everyone wanted to give her boxes and boxes of cookies when she was begging on Wordless Wednesday. Animals have this pleading way of getting anything they want from us weak humans who love them.
On Thankful Thursday we acknowledged Miss Harper Lee for blessing us with the Sweetest Blog Award, and we passed it on to some really sweet blogfriends. I love getting awards but it is so hard to figure out how to only bestow them on a dozen or so. When I was making the baker’s dozen list, I had over 40 names. Always hard to choose. But it was fun to have a food fight with everyone. Here’s a cupcake in your eye!
This week Savannah helped her friends Mollie & Alfie hold an auction for a very sick foster kitty, Leo. We bid on some cool stones and won. But really the winner will be Leo when his vet bills are paid, We do hope you get better and start eating on your own soon Leo. Leo has Hepatic Lipidosis disease. Click HERE to find out more about this illness in cats. Who knew that it was so common. The zoo is sending a lot of healing energy to you Leo.
You can help Leo too (if you are in the USA) – bu donating to …Contra Costa Humane Society Donate page CLICK HERE…when you see this option…
“Please select the program or fundraiser to which your donation should be applied”
..scroll the “options” and click “Leo’s Medical Care”…CCHS is a 501 3c organization in the USA and all USA donations will be tax deductible when submitted through here.
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us. Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

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 whenever you want all week long. The whole purpose is to feature cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, etc. so whenever 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! Today we are focused on some some GOATS and some RATS. I understand that rats make wonderful pets. In college, one of my friends had one and it followed her everywhere. I never had a goat, but I would think they might be fun (especially if you like feta cheese).
Do you find these Tuesday’s Tail of interest? Let me know and I will keep posting them.

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).
Blogfriends really liked the Sunday picture of Sofie and wanted to see the original. So here they are together. You know, I take it back but that is not in the yard by the forsythia bush, it must be down by the river because that is the crazy wild bamboo. 🙂
She is so alert sometimes. I actually saw her point today by lifting her front paw like Louise does. I think they mimic each other sometimes.
There was incredible Mischief on Monday down by the river. The dogs were losing their minds because their were pairs of ducks on both sides of the pier. The ducks just kept swimming and the dogs were running from one pier to another. Ultimately they did run down the boat ramp, but I called them back because the Magothy River just received an F (as in Failure) for water quality (Vital Magothy River Water Grasses Vanish) and I worry that they will get sick. Last year, while fixing the Osprey platform, one of my neighbors dogs spent to much time in the water and got very sick. I hate what is happening to the environment.
I focused on critters on Tuesday’s Tail to get animals adopted. Don’t you just love Guinea Pigs? We so miss our crew. With 5 pigs, 3 cages, and every day run-arounds in the pig pens, it was a big job but they were worth it.

Thankful Thursday, I left to go get Peanut at college in New York and we won’t be home until Caturday. I am very excited and I know all the animals will go crazy when she gets home. The animals just seem to relate differently to younger humans. It is almost as if they treat them more like siblings.
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us. Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

Let’s hop to it! Today we are focused on some Guinea Pigs and a Wabbit (bunny rabbit). Guinea Pigs normally only live 4 to 6 years, so let’s get these babies in homes quick. You know how much we miss our little piggies and wish we could have some, but, alas, I think Louise and Sofie would not like that at all.
