Monday Mischief: Mom’s First Walk Back

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Mom got home late one night last week.  She was really tired the next morning because she says she was on the other side of the world and that it was 13 hours ahead of our time.  We don’t understand, but she said that yesterday, she actually got younger.  How is that possible?  Any way, we took her for an early morning walk to cheer her up.  It was 20 degrees out.  She said yesterday she was in 90 degrees and 90% humidity.  We are not sure she liked this first walk very much.  But we did!

Thankful Thursday: Thanksgiving Day

We at DogDaz have so much to be thankful for and today is the perfect Thursday to restart our Thankful Thursday blog hop because it is American Thanksgiving Day.

funny_turkey

1.  DogDaz is thankful for safe international travel and the ability to move around the planet, especially to get home to see her furries (and her humans).

2.  We are thankful for a wonderful pet sitter who knows how to take such good care of the doggies when Mommy is off on her work journeys  (Thank you Sonya and pack).  And to V and K8 for feeding the cats everyday at home, which Mommy usually does.

3.  We are thankful for all the wonderful and caring people in our life who feed us and love us and take us to the vet when we need it.

4.  We are thankful for our blog friends who come back post after post, even when Mommy is not able to read their blogs because she is in a world that blocks internet access, or she is under a rock somewhere trying to lift the weight of the world.

Wishing everyone a safe and festive holiday season.  And for those that celebrate Hanukkah – may your doughnuts be full of jelly and your candles be bright.

She made this cake last night and we were going to have a welcome home and anniversary party today, but…

Sofie couldn’t help herself…

It may take a few days for Mom to get over her 13 hour rapid long-distance transmeridian travel desynchronosis (aka jet lag) but she is back in the pack!

DogDaz Update from China: Ears is tired of the hotel room

Since there are no real live animals in Shenzhen, China, it seems, Ears and Turtle have taken a much larger role in the day to day entertainment department for me.  Not having a furry to pet is making me cranky.  So, Ears decided he would hop in my briefcase and try to come to work with me.

Sofie would do the same thing if she were here.

DogDaz Update From China: There’s Food, So Where Are The Pets?

Obviously they have cats somewhere in China.  I found food and litter in the grocery store.

Obviously they have cats somewhere in China. I found food and litter.

There were signs of cats in a very small aisle in the grocery store,

Chinese dog treats in the grocery store.  I don't see dogs anywhere, though.

There were also dog treats, but I have only seen 2 strays and 1 leashed dog in 3 weeks.  No cats.  Hummmm…..  I am really having animal withdrawal.  There are also no ground animals, no rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, not even snakes…  but I’ve been told if I go in the back of restaurants I will find rats.  Oh, I did see a bird at work last week.  I never realized how much I am tuned into the ‘other than’ human vibrations around me all the time, and without them, I am starting to get off balance.  I contemplated going to the Shenzhen zoo, but I am afraid that it might upset me if the living conditions are poor.

I miss my furries.  Sorry to whine.

Notes from China: Friends @ Sonya’s While Mom’s Away

image

Sonya sent me an email with pictures and said that Louise and Sofie are doing fine staying in her care and with all their friends.

They seem to be having a relaxing time while I toil away in China working.  Ahhh, it is a dog’s life for sure.

They all went on a walk in the woods which must have been fun.

image
Sonya said that Sofie has been busy each night protecting them from foxes (or possums or raccoons or something — that they can’t see) and from deer.

They have a foster, Dee Dee, in the red harness next to Louise in the bottom picture, that actually whines even more than Sofie!

Dee Dee really likes Sofie, Sonya said.  She thinks it’s because Dee Dee used to live with a blonde Cairn terrier that Sonya just placed in a new home a few days after they come in to rescue.

That is Louise in the middle of the dalmatian pack.   The back row is Oreo, Millie & Jolene.  In front of Jolene is another black dog, Spunky and Sofie is under the chair on the right.

This sure made me smile a million miles away – Thanks Sonya for taking good care of my puppies.
