I could say nothing, because it is Wordless Wednesday and this picture could stand on it’s own, but I want to tell you what this picture means to me.
——————————————-
Gosh, how I miss you Squash E Bear.
I miss our cuddles and our long walks, just me and you.
I miss the way you would know exactly where I was at all times, even when your eyes could not see anymore.
K8 was right, you were an angel in fur sent especially for us.
Thank you my lil’ man, for sharing your time with us.
We still miss you, even all these years later, every day.
Your passing was the reason I started DogDaz.
You are part of my soul, forever & always.
——————————————-
Happy Wordless Wednesday

Peanut walked in her commencement last month. Did I tell you that the university had a puppy raising program? Puppy Raisers of the University of Delaware (PROUD) is a registered student organization that raises puppies for ‘The Seeing Eye.’ The Seeing Eye is a guide dog school that breeds and trains Labrador Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, and Lab-Golden crosses to become guide dogs for the visually impaired. PROUD consists of both puppy raisers and puppy sitters whose job is to expose the young dogs to as many situations as possible to prepare them for their future job as a guide dog. To help with this, the puppies come with students to many of the places they go including class, club meetings and events. The club has special approved housing areas where the puppies live with the student. It is a very time-consuming commitment, as the raisers are responsible for the puppy’s complete care, as well as, basic obedience and manners. How rewarding.
Peanut walked with her friend and the puppy her friend raised. PROUD, fur sure.

Louise has decided that the safest place to be when there is a storm is under Mom’s desk. At first I could not find her because she is black and it is really dark under there. Now I have an extra furry foot rest.
Have a great Wednesday!

Spring finally came with a bang and a boom. Don’t I look beautiful in front of the peonies and the knock-out roses?
Sadly, Mom is not smiling. Her roses have some kind of blight that has destroyed all the leaves, but not the flowers. V and Mom think it is something called Sawflies (aka rose slugs, saw worms), It is ravaging the neighborhood. We thought it was just the knock-out roses, but then we saw it hit the regular roses too. Now we think it is the same pest that has been eating our mugo pines the last few years. Everything looks all dried up and yucky. Mom loves roses (V not so much). Maybe we should pee on them and the larvae will die? That would be better than all the hand picking of larvae needed to get rid of them. Mom thinks it is too late to save any of the bushes this year since they are already gone.
What to do?

Hope you are having a great Wednesday despite our rose slugs.

Don’t you think it’s time to take the cover off the pool, Mom?
(In my defense it was stormy and rainy for weeks. Who knew that it was going to go from 40 degrees to 90 in one day?? – Mom)

For some strange reason, Peanut’s iphone uploaded old pictures of Sofie Bear, from when she was a puppy, back into a current photo album. Maybe the phone wanted us to remember those times, so I had her send them to me, and I made this Sofie puppy collage. Sofie was 5 years old last November. She was such a cute pup. It is easy to forget how tiny they were as puppies. The rescue thought she was a collie/shepard and about 12 weeks old, but now that we know she is a sheltie/mischief mix, she might have been a little older for her size. She was still all puppy! I am not so sure Louise knew what to make of this PEST for the first few months. Sofie followed her everywhere and wanted to be next to her or on her. Love love love love. Louise is so patient.
Happy Wordless Wednesday

My cousin was able to catch her 3 beauties on the stairs. From top, Griffin, LoRyder, and bottom is Circe. What a group! Griffin is an ambassador for Pinup’s for Pitbulls. My cousin Sarah was Miss 2015. Check them out for a great cause.
Happy Wordless Wednesday

I was looking at Louise through the back door. The snowflake is so that birds don’t fly into the glass. The cherry tree is really starting to bloom. The dogs made a nice pile of sticks to chew on. If you look carefully you will notice how green the deck is. That’s all pollen. Lulu comes in and she is so green I have to towel her off.
Have a great Wednesday!
