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).
This week started out ducky, with the baby ducks floating on the river on Black and White Sunday and then Louise and Sofie going crazy trying to eat them on Monday Mischief. I really don’t know what I would do if one of them swam out far enough to disrupt the floating family. But luckily, I did not have to find out.
We are still hopping with Tuesday’s Tails to try to find homes for local abandon animals. This week we had 3 beautiful kitties to show you. Do people like the adoption hop? I don’t know that I have many local followers, but even if it gets one animal a home it has done the job.
The biggest hit this week was Noel, loving on a picture of herself, for Wordless Wednesday. It is not that Noel, the Christmas Cat, is vain, but she thinks a lot of herself. She is the alpha of all alphas at the DogDaz Zoo and she makes sure that we all remember that.
And we ended the week with our brand new family member, Sydney Alexa, who is coming home from the hospital today to meet her big sister Maddy. Duckies, Kitties, Puppies and Babies – now that makes the world go round.
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.

This week we are thankful for our new grand niece, Sydney Alexa. Though she is far away, and not a puppy or kitten, we really like her all the same. Sydney was a month early, but is doing great. Welcome to the family.

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.)

These are some of my favorite images from the new book Soldier Dogs. There are more pictures in our slideshow today.
Military Working Dogs play a crucial part in America’s armed services. The best known “Soldier Dog,” Cairo, put crucial canine skills to work in the SEAL Team Six operation that killed Osama Bin Laden. Other Military Working Dogs serve as everything from bomb sniffers to troop companions to search and rescue dogs (and also serve in darker roles, such as duty at Guantanamo Bay). Their handlers and trainers, devoted dog lovers down to a man, form an unusually close-knit fraternity within the military.

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?

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.
