5.12.13 Black & White Sunday: Sofie & the Forsythia
You can do such cool things with Instagram. I like how I was able to make this look like a picture from the 1920’s or even earlier, when they used a different type of film process. Sofie is standing in front of the forsythia bushes. I think she looks like a proud herder. Happy Sunday!

5.9.13 Thankful Thursday: Lessons From Fear
I am thankful for this incredible fur creature that I call Louise. If any one would have told me that I would have fallen for a fearful black hound/ labby abused puppy, I would not have predicted it. I was always a lighter color, longer fur type of dog person. But ever since this little 4 or 5 month old sweetness came into my world 3 years ago, she has taught me so much. Louise has taught me:
- That fear can keep you safe. It can keep you from entering into a dangerous situation. You need to listen to your gut and respect your fear and the fear of those around you.
- That it is best to keep things simple, which keeps them less scary. Like not walking in the middle of too many people all at once, which can be overwhelming.
- That small steps can be very big. For example, when Louise does not bark or cower at every human that we pass, that is a victory.
- That learning what freaks you out, and avoiding it as much as possible, can make a world of difference in the rest of your day.
- Oh yes, and that black dogs are beautiful.
I believe that people and animals and situations all come into my life for the lessons that they teach me (and I them). Thank you Lulu Belle for my lessons in being more aware of the world around me and you, for listening to my instincts more, and for being patient.

Monday’s Made-up Meerkat
Sunday’s Cartoon
I had to remove the wonderful Peanut’s cartoon that was posted here about love because it is copyrighted and I mistakenly posted without permission.
Bad, DogDaz! Bad! I am in the dog house. Here is a coupon for you just in case this happens to you.
