A question popped up on my Facebook feed this morning that said, “If you could have one minute to say anything to your dog that they could understand, what would it be?” Truthfully, I don’t need one minute. I talk to the dogs, and cats, all the time and I really think they understand what I mean because it isn’t the words but the energy behind them. What do you think? Do you need a translator to speak dog? Sofie says she understands me purrfectly.

Louise, aka Lulu Belle, is 8 years young today. How did that happen? She was just a scared 5-month-old puppy with a bad start. Now she is a wonderful (still scared) big girl. When I was adopting Louise, I did not start out looking for a black dog or a short hair. I was a fan of light colored long hairs. Louie was a silver poodle, Nikki a buff cocker, and Squash was an everything with the thickest coat in the world. We went to an adoption event to see this tan long haired boy dog that I found online but ended up falling for this shy short haired black dog covered in mange. I didn’t know then that black dogs are usually the last to be adopted and the first to be put to sleep. There is actually a name for it – Black Dog Syndrome. What a sad mistake if I passed over adopting Louise. She is a joy and has taught me so much.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! LULU
Louise would like everyone to adopt a less adoptable pet next time you have space for a new furball:

Some dogs (Sofie) don’t waste any time when given the opportunity to select a bone. Other dogs (Louise) take their time to pick just the right one. In the end, Louise waits until Sofie finishes whatever one she is chewing and takes that one. Does it taste better? Bark Out Loud. I just love these goofballs.

The weather in the Mid-Atlantic was like summer, until this week. Finally, some rain and the temperatures are normalizing. Mommy got a jump on her Halloween decorations in the warm weeks. She loves fall and she loves Halloween. (Some people say she is a witch and this is her New Year holiday – Hee Hee Hee) Of course, she loves Halloween because it is my birthday. What more of a reason do you need to celebrate. She made her usual graveyard and filled it with lots of spooky stuff. She says we live in an Asylum all year long, but now she gets to put out a sign telling everyone. Come back tomorrow to see more pictures of us with the decorations.
Oh no! She’s going into the attic to get the inside decorations!!!! Save us! – Louise, the Fearful

After breakfast, they all go back to sleep waiting for dinner. The Zoo is a bunch of floor potatoes.

Mom visited our friends Pickles (mastiff/boxer) and Gerkins (boxer). Everyone thinks Gerky is Pickles’ pup, but he isn’t. BTW their cat’s name is Kimchi.

If the Vet does not see me then she won’t know that I am here and then she can’t take any more tests, right?
Oh no! The vet tech found me. Now I have to go in the back to that scary place.
Mom, you were supposed to save me from all the scary needles. But it is over now.
Yeah!!! The Vet said that my pancreatitis is all gone! My enzymes are back to normal.
Let’s go home, Mom, and have a steak*!
*Note: Since Mom hasn’t eaten anything with 4 legs in 45 years, a steak is doubtful.
We are all jumping for joy that Louise is feeling better.
