7.27.12 Sofie the Photographer
Since Mom is away, Louise and I have tried to take some pictures so that we can blog about our time without her. I tried to take them with my cell phone and then Louise took one too. We hope you like our dog attempts at photography. We know we are not as good as Laurie Bartolo, expert dog photographer extraordinaire, but maybe she will consider us for her next amateur photographer show. I am not sure we dogs really get the concept of pictures (or blogs for that matter) but I know that Mommy likes to snap a lot of them of us. I am sure that when Mom returns she will choose me as the new DogDaz photographer for all events, don’t you think? Louise can carry the equipment bag (woof woof woof woof – this is dog for “Rolling On The Floor Laughing My Tail Off”). – Sofie Bear

7.23.12 Counting The Minutes
“I’ve learned that waiting is the most difficult bit, and I want to get used to the feeling, knowing that you’re with me, even when you’re not by my side.”
― Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes
Sofie: “Lu, it has been days, where is she?”
Louise: “Sofie, now remember Mommy told us she will always come back for us no matter how far away she is.”
Sofie: “But, Lu…. (whine, whine, whine)… it is really hot out and I want to go swimming in the river and I want to take a long walk and I want Mommy to rub my tummy!…(whine, whine, whine)
Louise: “Mommy said that we should count the minutes until her return, so let’s start now” (in her most big sister voice.)
Sofie: “What’s a minute?”

7.22.12 Upside Down Under
This is Sofie Bear. Louise was being silly yesterday and tried to walk on the ceiling because she wanted to see what it would be like for the whole world to be upside down because Mommy is someplace called ‘down under.’ But I always look at the world from down under. I am a roll over on my back dog and look up at the sky from down here all the time. She does that sometimes but I do it several times a day. I love to be upside down. Sometimes if people see me they rub my tummy. Lulu only rolls for Mommy. When Mommy and Lulu are doing their little love fest thing, that is when I come running over and bite Lulu on the back leg. Hey, that is my Mommy too and I want her to rub my belly!

7.21.12 Walking On The Ceiling
“Since Mommy is on the other side of the globe, in Australia this week, I thought I would see how I look to her from there.”
“Spiders walk on the ceiling, so it can’t be to hard.”
“I am getting a little light headed though.”
“Mommy – please come home so that our world goes right side up again!” – Lulu Belle

5.27.12 Sofie’s Lesson, by Louise
Sofie: “Mommy makes us pose in all these places and I really do not want to pose, I want to go chase squirrels or balls or something. But instead she tries to get me to sit nice and look pretty.”
Lulu: “Sofie, now you know that Mommy does this because she thinks we are both very beautiful, especially me. So she is trying to show us off to the blog people.”
Sofie: “Blog – smog! She does this just because she wants to stop me from running around and digging holes everywhere.”
Lulu: “My dear little Sofie, how much you do not understand about humans. Didn’t you get a nice special yummy treat for sitting nicely?”
Sofie: “Yeah, and your point is….?”
Lulu: “If you do it again, you will get more treats like that.”
Sofie: “Really? You’re so smart, Louise. I guess that is why your my big sister.”

5.13.12 Still Puppies
Puppy Lulu maybe 6 month April 2010
I have been thinking about puppies. My cuties have grown so fast. Louise, aka Lulu Belle, was already about 5 months old when she came to us, so I never really got to see her in her littlest puppiness. She was so cute and loved to sleep under the grapes (now she likes to eat the stems – yes, I know grapes can be poison to dogs). It took a while to teach her that people were Ok, but she loved being with us, and especially with the other animals. I decided that her birthday would be Halloween (31 Oct), so she is 2 1/2 years old now.
Puppy Sofie maybe 14 wks March 2011
When Lulu was little, Squash was already blind and an old man. I never got to meet him as a puppy. He found us when he was already about 7 or so years old. I sometimes imagine how cute he must have been. He was very good with Lil’ Lulu.
After Squash past on, we got Sofie. The rescue thought Sofie Bear was about 12 weeks old and a Shepard/Collie. Since she really is more like a Sheltie/Corgi, she may have been 14 or 16 weeks: Who knows? I made her birthday Thanksgiving time, 25 November. She is 1 1/2 years old now. I have not told her that she is not going to be a 100 # dog yet, I figure I will wait until she is older.
The girls are still very much puppies. Sometimes they remind me of the endless energy I had in my youth, Sofie still gets these big bags under her eyes at bed time and needs to get ‘Beaver’ and go Nite-nite, almost like a human child. Never had a puppy like that before. Louise gets very “Mommy, Mommy” sometimes, and wants all the attention on her.
There is so much to enjoy in our animals. Of course I wasn’t happy this morning when the cats knocked some laser pointer off the shelf and I found puppy Sofie chewing it with 3 little batteries on the floor next to her. I freaked out and watch her for hours, hoping I was not to late. I also forgot how much work all these youngsters are (2 puppies, 2 kittens, and 3 old cranky cats – oh I almost forgot and the teenager).
Happy Mother’s Day! Whether human, animal, or even a plant, watching and participating in helping things grow has been my greatest reward. Thank you for letting me be your mother.

5.10.12 The shoes have it!
Whenever I am getting ready to go out, Sofie throws herself on my feet and has a little tantrum. “Please mommy, don’t leave me, what am I going to do if you put your shoes on, that means you are going somewhere, me me me me me.” I find it interesting how she knows the difference between when I am getting dressed but staying home vs when I am getting dressed to go out. Now of course, that does involve shoes, which I don’t like to wear and avoid as much as possible. Maybe the shoes are the difference? She really goes crazy when I go to my business clothes closet, then she figures I am going to be gone for more than a minute, She has even taken to stealing one shoe so that I can never leave her. Silly dog, she doesn’t know that we humans tend to have more than one pair of shoes.
