6.7.13 Follow Up Friday: We Want Mommy!!!

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).

Noel BloggingNoel, the Christmas Cat here.  I have been in charge of the blog all week while Mommy is over in Ireland on business.  I wish she would come home already, because this is really hard work and I might break a nail, but I understand that she is still going to be gone awhile longer.  Personally, I think I did an outstanding job this week and I hope that she brings me something really really special, like an Irish mouse.

This week I starred on Caturday, but had to give up my spot to Lulu Belle, the bigger dog, on Black and White Sunday.  That is OK because she is the black to my white – though I don’t like any of those smelly go-outsiders.

Monday Mischief included silly Nine boy chasing light dots up the wall.  He is a crazy kitten, I would not be caught dead chasing light dots (but maybe a laser thingy).  Mommy had a laser thing once, but she left it on the coffee table and it disappeared.  I assume Nine has it stashed under the couch with a lot of other toys of his.

We were forced did our charitable part to show some pretty birdies and bunnies that need homes on Tuesday’s Tail.  I would prefer to eat birds, but I guess everyone needs a home.

Noel in charge

Taking over Mom’s chair

Wordless Wednesday left me sad because Sofie misses Mommy sooooo much.  She was moping on the dog bed with a catnip toy, which she loves to suck on.  It comforts her, I guess.  And why not, it is full of catnip, which is a wonderful tea.  I miss Mommy too.  No one has been in her office all week, which forces me to come out into the living room to meow at the other humans while they watch TV.  I have to walk all the way down the hall to do that – OMC! (On My Cat!)  Those other humans are not the same as Mommy.  I want catnip too!!!!!

If you made it all the way to Thankful Thursday, then you know the DogDaz Zoo thanked YOU – yes you – for following us and coming back even when we are silly and don’t have much to say in the blog.  We are grateful animals (especially at feeding time).

6.6.13 Thankful Thursday: Y-O-U

Mommy wanted all of us animals here at DogDaz Zoo to say thank you to everyone reading the blog.  That is you –  the human reading right now – at this very moment.  Thank YOU!  Without you we would be lonely bloggers.  We are thankful for every Comment and every Like and every View.  Thank You Thank You Thank You. (When Mommy comes home she says she will thank you personally vs animally.) – Love, Louise, Sofie, Noel, Nine, and Stella

5.31.13 Follow Up Friday: Duckies, Kitties, Puppies and Babies

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.

5.30.13 Thankful Thursday: New Life

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.

5.27.13 Monday Mischief: Uncontrollable Urges

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.

Memorial Day ’13: Soldier Dogs: The 4-Legged Heros

For the United States Memorial Day today, I am reposting this story from 2012 on Soldier Dogs .

fastcompany:

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.

Soldier Dogs: The Four-Legged Heroes Of Iraq And Afghanistan

Dog are not only our best friends, they are an incredible asset to our safety forces.  Thank you to all the handlers and animals that keep us safe around the world.  – DogDaz

5.26.13 Black and White Sunday: First Float

Sunday Morning Swim 

first float

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?

Happy Sunday!
