For some really strange reason the dogs have gotten into this head to head sleeping lately. It looks really uncomfortable. By what I have noticed is the 2 dogs together, depending on how they are laying, are starting to look like letters of the alphabet. Does your dog’s body position look like an English letter? I would like to create an alphabet of positions using dog pictures. If you have any could you send them to me at Dogdazcats2@aol.com. When I have all 26 letters, I will make a post out of them. Thanks.

Caption that accompanied this picture in the Feb. 2, 1959, issue of LIFE: “The ‘monkey terrier’ comes from Germany where it was bred 300 years ago as a rat catcher. Bushy-faced with an underslung chin, the toy sized dog has a fiery, excitable disposition.” (Nina Leen—Time & Life Pictures/Getty Images)

The days are starting to really warm up. Under ‘Big Tree’ is the best place to be when it gets like that. The dogs really like to run around but when they are done they dig little holes in the dirt/sand and just lie there for a really long time. That is the beauty of being a house dog. Louise and Sofie really do not have any chores like farm dogs do, herding and protecting. They aren’t expected to help with anything like seeing-eye dogs or service dogs. They are not trained to save a life or sniff out drugs or contraband. They just have to do a few tricks, laze around, and look cute. Grabbing shade on a hot afternoon is a wonderful way to do nothing. Spoiled, my dogs, No Way!

Hi, this is Louise here. Mommy is busy and she asked me to write something in the blog today so that she could focus on work. Now you know that is silly since I can not type, but it was a nice thought anyway, Mom.
My question to all you out there in Blogland is WHY? Why is it that I can’t clean the cat’s litter box? Why do I have to walk on a leash? Why can’t I eat that stick? And WHY can’t I chase the furry rat things with that bushy tail up the trees?
I would also like to know why I have to endure strangers in my space regularly. They scare me and I just want them to go away. I tell them that rather loudly but they do not listen. Some of Peanut’s friends smell good though, so they are OK after awhile.
Why does pesky Sofie have to come everywhere I go? Can’t she stay home sometimes and play by herself? She takes all my toys!!!
Why can’t I eat the grass? I like it even though it makes me ‘give it back’ sometimes. Why does the vet have that pointy thing whenever I see her? Why do you keep putting gunk in my ears?
Well, Mom, I hope you got a lot done at work today. Why do you have to work anyway?

On this, our American Memorial day, I wanted to honor the Military Working Dogs, and of course all the active service people and veterans that have protected me and my family and my nation for many years. Especially remembering my Dad who served honorably in the Army during WWII, and took a bullet so that I could be free to be me. Thank you very much. You will never be forgotten.
Have you ever thought about adopting a Military dog when they come home? http://www.militaryworkingdogadoptions.com/

There is nothing like lazing on a fine sunny day. Louise just loves to sit in her spot on the deck and take in all the warmth of the day, 
Sofie finds a nice cool hole to lie in somewhere under the trees (just like Squash used to). Don’t you wish sometimes you could have a dog’s life?
Just the other day I was thinking about how lucky I am. Though I work way to many hours, I have great friends and family, a ton of silly animals, have food to my hearts content, and am blessed with feeling safe in my home and surroundings. If I were a dog, I would probably want the same things (well maybe not the work part). I guess maybe I do have a dog’s life after all, with just a different kind of herd to tend. Well, I think I will go lie on the deck.

If Lulu Belle or Sofie could have gone to the prom with C, what would they have worn? Lulu I think would be a frilly girl. I know she does not act like that because she is all athletic and serious and stuff, but she really would like something really girly. Maybe she would have chosen pink with her beautiful brown and black fur. Definitely a classic flowing gown, maybe chiffon. Since she is so shy, she probably would have a quiet pre and post party with her date and a few close friends.
Sofie Bear would go to P A R T Y ! with a large group of friends, date or not, and Miss Independent would probably wear something ‘different.’ Maybe purple clingy gown with a deep slit up the leg and lots of bling. I think she would play the ‘blond’ card, if you know what I mean.
Humm, sometimes it is fun to dress them up in my mind. Kind of like paper dolls when I was a little girl, or C when she let me pick out her clothes (I think that stopped when she was 6).

Sofie is a little dog among bigger dogs (Lulu and her friend Mojo). She is blond, they are black. She is whiney, they are quiet (well, Mo does bark a lot). She is furry, they are short hair.
3 dogs and a frisbee
The labbies have this incredible bite, Sofie is lucky if she can find enough tooth grip to pull a robe. She tires 1/2 way through our walk and starts to pant, Lulu just runs on. But Sofie does not know that she is different, so she just plays like she is a big dog. I guess ‘fitting in’ is a human concept. The dogs don’t really get caught up in it. Lucky them. Once again a lesson that humans can learn from their dogs.
