My wonderful Louise, aka Lulu Belle, turns 11 today. She is just such a wonderful soul. I really enjoy her company. She is patient with the cats and tolerates Sofie and Charles very well. She loves to have Mom all to herself on morning walks and it seems like the only time that I really see her smile. Except for this picture above. She had the biggest smile that day. Usually, she is more like the picture below.
“Why are you making me sit here in front of the roses, Mom? Grump, grump, grump. Let’s just keep walking.”(Don’t my wild roses look great for late fall? They really had a second burst.) I just love this dog.
There seems to be something lately about us getting in Mom’s face. We get as up close as possible to her. We like to be really really near by.
We are not always sure that she appreciates our hot smelly breathe on her, especially when she is asleep. Do you get up close and personal with your humans?
Charles here. We like this new toy that Mom got us. We have named him Herman. He is a fun guy. No one has chewed his arms off yet, so he must be pretty strong. Though Mom got us each a new toy, Sofie and I like Herman.
She got Louise this big crunchy squeaky bat, but Sofie decided it was her’s too. In this house, Sofie kind of takes everything. It is annoying. But, I get to sit on the couch and she doesn’t so I am not going to complain too much. Well, maybe a little….
September came and went. In the flash of an eye, we went from the heat of summer to the chill of fall. I love fall and so do the animals. Cool walks and neat smells. We hope you enjoy this quick review of September.
For all those that I have been unkind to, have growled at, or lunged at. For all the cats that I have menaced; all the cat poo I have eaten; all the goose poo I have rolled in; all my barking and carry on. I ask that you forgive me. I am but a simple, imperfect dog and mean no harm. Please accept my humble apology.
