Thank you for being so patient. I know we have been gone since Christmas. We are back now. Mom got unexpectedly ill and didn’t mean to be offline so long. 😦
She promises that she will tell you all about our winter adventures over the next few weeks. Gosh oh, golly gee, it is almost spring, so she better hurry.
Let’s start with December. We got some really nice gifts from everyone. We each got stuffies and squeakies to chew and treats.
Mom made V a pillow of Charles so he can go everywhere they go. It came from a company called Pet Ninja and was shipped from China in this little envelope. Mom thought they had made a mistake because it was so small but when the bag was openned it blew up to be bigger than he actually is. Bark Out Loud.
The bestest present was a painting that K8 made for Mom of us. K8 copied a picture that Mom took of all three of us at the front door and she painted it on to a 2″ canvas. You can follow her process in the pictures below. The whole painting is littler than Mom’s new watch (which Peanut gave her). Isn’t it so cool!
How lucky we are to have such a wonderful family.
Stay tuned for updates, catch ups, mischief, and smiles.
We’ve missed blogging and hope you’ll come back real soon.

DogDaz Zoo loves to decorate at holiday time. I notice that we don’t have any holiday cats. Have you ever seen any outside cat decorations? Maybe I can find some for next year. This year the Bear family is new. My old bear fell apart and I had been looking for a new one for several years. I am so happy that I found one that I could afford (and got a baby too). The little family looks great in the fairy garden.
This is such a magical time of year.
What kind of mischief did you get into today? Give us a link to your decorations.

This was the adoption picture online when we first found Charles (previously known as Chi-chi Forest).
This is Mr. Handsome today.
Happy 1 year Gotcha day, Charles.
You are a superstar here at DogDaz Zoo.
We are so glad you rescued us.
I think maybe you need your own superhero story, what do you think? Charles would make a fun cartoon dog.

Mom likes when the Christmas and Hanukkah holiday days aren’t overlapping because she gets to buy us more toys. This year she could not resist getting us some very fun stuffies. She said we have to wait until tomorrow night (the first night of the holiday) before we can destroy them. Can you guess who gets which stuffy? We are still working on toys from holidays past, but Mom doesn’t care, she buys us new stuff anyway. Some people would say that she spoils us, but we think we are just the luckiest rescue zoo in the universe. We can smell the latke’s cooking!
Sofie wants to play dreidel (a fun Hanukkah holiday game with a special top) and stole the gelt (chocolate money – dark vegan chocolate in our house), but Mom said that is not for doggies. This picture was truly not a setup, Sofie loves to steal little things.

The weather has finally turned ‘normal’ for December in the Mid-Atlantic. It was nice to take a brisk walk down to the river. Getting these three to pose is just impossible. Charles won’t sit on command, Sofie wants to lie down wherever she is, but, at least Louise listens to me (sometimes).
I will master the group photo sooner or later. I tried a selfie of me with the three dogs but that didn’t work. I think I need another human to get a family shot.
Do you have a good method for family fur fotos? I really need help here. Share in the comments. Thanks.

How can it be permissible
She compromise my principle, yeah yeah
That kind of love is mythical
She’s anything but typical
She’s a craze you’d endorse, she’s a powerful force
You’re obliged to conform when there’s no other course
She used to look good to me, but now I find her him
Simply irresistible, Simply irresistible
Her His loving is so powerful, huh
It’s simply unavoidable
The trend is irreversible
The woman is invincible
She’s a natural law, and she leaves me in awe
She deserves the applause, I surrender because
Sheused to look good to me, but now I find her him
Simply irresistible, Simply irresistible

“Dogs with long, fine hair tend to shed less than other breeds. Some breeds shed very little hair. Strictly “non-shedding breeds” do not exist. However, most breeds with single coats are considered “non-shedding” because their shedding is not very noticeable.” – The Science of Fur
The person who wrote that article never met Louise.
Every day when I make my bed, I throw a flannel sheet over it immediately or I will be sleeping in fur.
I carefully tuck the sheet over my pillows and make sure every inch is covered before I go to make breakfast.
But, Louise wants my pillows. No matter how tight under the covers I put them, she digs them out and makes a nest.
It’s no fair! I used to give her a special pillow but she wants all of them. But worse….
The hair, the hair is everywhere!!
Louise is single coated and short hair. Sheis supposed to be the least of my shedders.
With the addition of Charles’ long black hair, I just can’t win.
Thankfully, Sofie doesn’t shed much (even though she has the longest finest hair). Or maybe I just don’t see it because she is blond.
Any ideas how to keep a bed fur free? I know, ban the dogs from sleeping on it! Hahahahaha – good luck with that at DogDaz Zoo.
