Comfort comes in many flavors. For Charlie, it is snuggling on a blanket on top of a pillow on the couch, preferably where Mini Cooper was sleeping last.
For Lulu, it is definitely on a dog bed, preferably in the same room as Mommy.
For Sofie (aka SodaPop), it is basically anywhere there is a floor, preferably with some toy that she can nibble while she falls asleep. What is your comfort spot?

A look back at 2017. Nothing much has changed over the last 3 years. Well, maybe they are all a little fatter and more demanding. But then again, so am I.
Happy Black and White Sunday!

Here is yet another in the series of ‘this cannot be comfortable!’ I really don’t try to overthink why the animals do what they do but, this just can’t be comfortable, Sofie.
Feel free to add your pictures to the series of ‘this cannot be comfortable’ in the comments.

Oh my, how exhausting to be a dog at the DogDaz Zoo! Today, Charles got a haircut (and a pedicure). Sonya really knows how to make him look beautiful. Little dogs seem to get scruffy looking so quickly. Anyway, what an event it must have been because he came home, had dinner, and immediately went to sleep in Mini Cooper’s spot on the couch (up on a bunch of pillows).
When I get a haircut and pedicure, I usually want to get dressed up and go out to dinner. How about you?

In the annals of ‘That Cannot Be Comfortable,’ I want to add these pictures this week. Sofie is always laying with her head on the leg of the kitchen table. Really? That just can’t be comfortable.
And Louise! I keep buying bigger and bigger beds, yet she always lies with her head on the floor. Now really, Lulu Belle, that cannot be comfortable! (Please ignore my messy office, and yes, that is a giant box of dog toys :-))

I wonder sometimes what the dogs actually see when a toy is just sitting there and they look like it is going to jump up and hit them. Sofie’s favorite toys are cat toys. I call them catnip tea. She loves to suck on them. Is there a catnip for dogs? I guess that is CBD or something like it. What is your favorite toy?

So far this year the snow events have been very light to non-existent. The wind, however, is another story. Sofie, and now Charles, are barking at the slightest rustling of the trees. Today it actually sounds like a small freight train coming through the yard. I am not sure when real winter is coming to the Mid-Atlantic this year, but February and March are usually our worst months, so time will tell.
Stay dry and warm.

This was a partial black and white picture of Lulu from DogDaz in 2014.
Louise loved that silly bird. I hadn’t seen it in years until just the other day.
It mysteriously resurrected itself and was sitting on my office floor.
Still looking as Ducky as ever 6 years later. Go figure?

Mom! Louise has all the toys and she isn’t sharing.
This picture is from 2013. It cracks me up. Sofie still does this 7 years later. Steps are a great vantage point, and also, it seems her body fits perfectly. I have found over the years, especially because I document almost everything, that behaviors don’t change much. Louise never lies on the steps. Maybe because she is too big? Charles will sit on the steps but I have never seen him lie down. Maybe because he is too small and it would be vulnerable. Sofie’s stair is ‘Just Right.’ Now I know why I named her ‘Sofie Bear,’ because she is just like Goldilocks in the story of the Three Bears.
