Go Home, Lil’ Baby
Spring/Summer hit the Mid-Atlantic big time this week. So the girls and I were down by the water a lot. The week started out with all this very terrible squirrel activity, and my little murderers monsters sweet doggies were not aware of the havoc they reeked for their tired sensitive animal loving Mom. I find it interesting that we brought squirrel baby #2 to the park to find a safer nest and ever since then Sofie has refused to walk to the park with me. Maybe she does not want to bump into the baby she almost killed. (I am only just now thinking of that).
I haven’t been blogging about Sofie’s difficulties this week, but I have posted them on Facebook. Do you follow DOGDAZCATS2 on Facebook? It is nice to also have that avenue to actually have conversations with other pet lovers outside of just the comments in a daily blog post. Please do come visit our page and LIKE us so that we know who you are and we can LIKE you back. A ‘Like’ in Facebook, is a ‘FOLLOW’ in WordPress.
Sofie has refused to walk down the block to the park. She started this on Monday. She gets half way down the block and sits down (little stubborn Sheltie thing that she is) and wants to go home. It has gotten hotter and hotter each day, but I don’t think that is it because if it was that bad outside, I would not have gone for a walk. We even walked with Mojo (her buddy). But no go!
The interesting thing is she will take the similar distance walk in the other direction, to the river. Go figure? Is it the baby squirrel sending psychic messages to turn back?
I started her on 50 mg of Benadryl (antihistimine) just in case it is allergies (1 mg for every pound of dog the vet says).
Thank you Readers for liking the games we play down by the water, especially when we found Lucy, our neighbor’s Jack Russell Terrier at the dock hiding in a boat.
I am sorry to report that my stupid state of Maryland was not able to agree on the bill that would have saved many Bully Breed and Bully-Mix owners from having to possibly give up their pets because of Breed Discrimination in the state. It was all because of one sentence that the Senate and House differed on. I am just appalled and ashamed at the things that lawmakers sometimes do.

My step-daughter lost her best friend’s 18-year-old brother on Wednesday in a car crash with 3 other boys. The cause – excessive speeding. Please remember that nothing is worth driving that fast for. Speed kills so many people, animals, and ruins lives forever. Talk to your kids, today! And talk to yourself too!
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.

Thank you ‘Oh Great Powers That Be’ for the flowers. Mom says she would like a few days of spring weather, if you could arrange it, instead of straight into summer temperatures, but we are thankful for what we can get.

Today is Follow Up Friday. I am not sure how that came up so fast. It seems like time is flying and it was just last Friday. I guess I am becoming a little overwhelmed by all the work I have done lately; days turn into nights, and one blog runs into the next. I just launched a business blog, thedigitalattitude.com, which focuses on people’s journey to their social self, basically helping people figure our their personal brand and how to leverage it online. Come visit me, I am a social butterfly. Anyway, I would love your opinion pet-friends, but won’t bore you here with my business stuff so back to DogDaz (already in progress).
Everyone loved the Catlegs on Caturday, and Easy Rider dubbed it a CATINET. Love that, thanks Easy. The cats do like to play with our secret other pet, Dust Bunny, so I guess that is what they were doing.
Are there really any coincidences in life? I did not realize when I posted the Monday Mischief: Play Ball that it was actually the first day of the Major League Baseball season in the United States. My Dad was a big baseball fan and had season tickets to Shea Stadium where the New York Mets play. I grew up with baseball but never was very good at it. Louise on the other hand would be a great base runner, don’t you think? She showed you her moves in the Thankful Thursday: A Moment In Time video, where she was actually running on the baseball field.
Many readers thought it was really neat that Sofie and Nine could be so cuddly. I guess since I have always had cats and dogs, I expect a certain amount of play. They, however, are the cuddliest two I have ever had.

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.
