Sofie loves all kinds of melon: honeydew, cantaloupe, even watermelon. Louise won’t touch it. As you can see from this picture, Sofie’s eyes are intent on staring me down for my snack and Louise is clearly distracted by something in the distance (probably a cat). I always offer Lulu some but she spits it out. She doesn’t like fruit at all and will only eat her veggies cooked. Sofie loves fruit and will entertain fresh crunchy veggies anytime. Funny how black and white they are. Have a great Sunday!

Sofie seems to always be playing the game ‘I Spy.’ Here she is spying a duck or fish or bouy. Actually, I never know what she spies.
Bark Out Loud. That dog cracks me up!
Happy Sunday!

Louise in the front yard by the fall phlox. They were volunteers that came along in a clump of Bloodgrass that we took from my Mother-in-law’s garden. What a wonderful surprise they are. Everything is so colorful this year. I love fall. Have a wonderful Sunday!

Mister photogenic in fall 2007. Squash E Bear looked his best in the fall when his winter coat started to come in. Even people who don’t like dogs, loved Squash. Autumn begins this week in the Northern Hemisphere. Have a wonderful fall Sunday! (or spring depending on where you are – LOL)

Sofie is ready to tell any feathered, furred, or skinned creature to get away from her yard, NOW! Always alert and always on patrol.

Louise has this thing about always sleeping on the smaller pillow. I think it is just to tick Sofie off. Ahh, to be a dog.

Louise only wants to sit in the soft grass. Sofie lies in the middle of the street.

If there were ever two more contrary dogs, I never knew them.

I love this picture of Peanut and Socki taken in 2004. Socki was the most wonderful service dog for Aunt Judi, who has Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Socki was the first service dog we ever got to know and he did everything for Judi. Every year we would come up to New York to have a family weekend and see a show. Socki came to many a Broadway show with us, the Rockett’s at Radio Music Hall, and even the American Girl store. He was amazing.
There was that one time when we went to see “Beauty and the Beast,” and we had to take him into the hall because they were shooting guns and it really upset him. Oh, and that time he met a bomb sniffing dog at the concession stand and they just really got into a conversation, we guess about work.
We miss you Socki. Thank you for teach us about how wonderful a life of service can be.
Have a good year at college, Peanut.
Enjoy your Sunday.

Squash E Bear, August 2008
I attended my 40th High School reunion last weekend. It made me look back at all the wonderful people I have known, places I have been, and animals that I have had the pleasure to share my heart with. Many of you know that Squash will always be my ‘Soul-Dog.’ You have my heart big guy!
Enjoy your Sunday!

Louise is madly in love with her new squeaky duck from the grocery store. This is the longest any squeaking toy has remained whole, ever. She has to grab it whenever she sees it and give it a little “squeak!” It makes her very happy. As you might assume, it is off limits to any other animal.
