4.19.12 “AhhhhhChooooo!”
On our walk this morning, I noticed that Louise seemed to have endless energy (it must be the lab in her). She runs like the wind and is distracted just by hearing the word ‘Squirrel.’ She doesn’t get into much trouble, but she does tend to follow scents (I think that is the hound part of her) more than follow my commands. Sofie on the other hand has to herd us all along (the corgi and sheltie in her) but seems to tire easily. She tends to have more burst type of energy (run run run, collapse). I am almost sure during our little photo session (I hold these little photo ops to practice the ‘Place’ and other commands), she fell asleep. We weren’t even done with our mile walk yet. I think both of them, and my cats, and most of the humans I know, are struggling with spring allergies here in the Mid-Atlantic. I haven’t given them anything for their allergies but worry that maybe I should. Lulu sneezes and sneezes and then scares herself. And poor lil’ Sofie Bear, she is whizzing and hacking. They both seem to be eating a lot of grass too, and I assume somehow that is connected, but I do not know (?). Maybe that is why Sofie is so tired today – I know that I sure am….

Sometimes my animals are just plan Goofy! And that is all there is to say about it.

4.17.12 When I Come Back, I Want To Be…
I want to live with the abandon my dogs have. Rolling on their backs and laughing and smiling. Waiting to have their tummies rubbed. I can have ‘a little’ abandon now, but, on Monday, I have to get back to the work. If truly there is a karmic wheel and I get to come around again, I would like to be owned by a nice lady like myself, who buys lots of dog toys and treats, and plays with us a lot, and then I would just run around and have fun all day with my humans and my animal friends. Wow, does that sound nice. Really changes the perspective of the expression, ‘going to the dogs.’ because that is exactly where I want to be.

4.16.12 Bait and Switch?
Louise really likes this yellow toy that she has. It is supposed to be one of those indestructible 2 dog pull things. Anyway, Sofie (who figures out how to eat the strategic stitching on any toy), has weakened the middle so now it is nice and foldable (is that a word?). Lulu decided to take a nice nap on the yellow toy and use it as a pillow. I thought it was cute, so I took a picture. The funny thing is, the next time I looked down, Louise had magically turned into Miss Constance Kitty, and Kitty was asleep in the same place Lulu just was,

Why Are My Readers Disappearing?
I have noticed a trend that has started to worry me a little. It appears that my readership has dropped off considerably. Some days it is like everyone is gone. Now I am not advocating that people spend all their time on the internet, but I used to get like 250 readers in a day and now I am getting 30. Is it something I said? Am I not tagging my stuff properly? Or is the stuff I am talking about really only of interest to me and a small group of family and friends (who are probably just being nice because I told them I have a blog)? I enjoy blogging, and mostly I do it because it is fun, but I would like to write about things that other people find interesting too. So let me know if you have any ideas. Or maybe it is just spring in the Northern Hemisphere. – DogDaz
4.15.12 Headline News: Dog Breaks Cat Out Of Jail
Nine and Sofie being lovey dovey
Nine, the kitten, thinks he is another dog in this house. He wants to be wherever Sofie is. He runs more with the dogs than the cats. It is really cute how attached he is to Sofie, and she him. I have always had certain cats that really liked the dogs (Kitty loved Squash E), but never to this extent. I really need to be careful because Nine tries to go on walks with the dogs and me, and he always is at the doors watching them.
Stella & Nine at the screen door
Cats do not go outside in my house. It is to dangerous a world in the street and I do not have the energy to deal with them getting killed or just plan hurt. But Nine…. he just really does not like being away from Sofie.
Sofie teaching Nine how to escape
So she decided to eat a hole in the screen so that he could get out of jail.
Nine Making A Jail Break
And, off they went.
Stella, the baby kitty, did not even try to follow. She knows the rules. Nine and Sofie, on the other hand, are my two trouble makers.

4.14.12 “Good Morning, Mom”
My routine does not change very much day to day. I wake up rather early (4:30 or 5 AM) and try to be quiet so the animals don’t hear me until around 6, I let the dogs out of their kennels around 6:15 usually, and the first thing I do is let them out back. They run, do their stuff, and then come back in and have breakfast. Around 6:25 AM, all 7 animals get feed (the dogs in the dog feeding area, the 3 older cats in the kitchen (each in their spots) and the kittens in the kitten room), and I have my protein shake. By 6:30, I am usually starting my first meeting during the week. Animals do not understand weekends (and neither does my circadian rhythm). So, everyday is basically the same.
"Mommy, let us in, it is cold out here and we want breakfast!!!"
I have been told that when I travel, the dogs have been known to sleep late. Is that because the humans watching them just ignore the whimpers, or do they really? I guess I will never know, since I am not there. I would like them to sleep late, but since I do not, they do not. We all fall asleep early in the evening too (I wonder why? – just kidding). Guess they have me trained.
