On a beautiful 70° in the middle of January, I thought I would revisit a summer post. – Enjoy your Sunday!
Louise stands at the edge of the deck for the longest time. I guess she is surveying her territory. On the other side of the pool is a busy bird feeder and there is always a lot of activity going on. This is a really good vantage point from which to see if the villainous squirrels are stupid enough to come into the area. I feel sorry for the squirrels in our yard because when I let the dogs out – zoom, zoom, zoom – they know just where the squirrels are going to be and they run them up the trees, fences, and power lines.
I love this shot because it really shows off Louise’s milky rear toes. The nails are white in those spots and black everywhere else. These are truly the DOGDAZ of summer.
Have a wonderful black and white Sunday!

Love is a funny thing: you can’t see it, you just feel it.
I love Louise and Louise loves me.
I know by the way she wakes me up in the morning (by walking on me and licking my face);
how she reacts when I come home from somewhere (with crazy tail wags);
the way she looks at me with those brown eyes (so soulful and adoring);
how she relaxes when I am near.
Some scientists say that animals don’t really love, that what we see is just an attachment or bond to the owner.
But I say that isn’t true!! I think animals love – don’t you?

A throwback to 2014.
Louise is still looking out the window to see what she can see.
Happy Black and White Sunday!

Love is a funny thing: you can’t see it, you just feel it.
I love Louise and I am sure that Louise loves me. I know by the way she wakes me up in the morning and how she reacts when I come home from somewhere. It’s the way she looks at me with those brown eyes. It is how she relaxes when I am near. But is it love really or is it just that I am the caregiver and the food source? Personally, I want to believe it is love. Many scientists say it is just an attachment or bond to the owner. But I say if it is not love, then what thing is it?

Most people think Louise is black, but she isn’t totally. She is brown when the sun hits her fur.
She has always had these brown stripes under the black. Maybe she is secretly brindle? Anyway, she is just my dark chocolate sweetheart.

In 2010, Louise was about 13 months in this picture, she helped us with our first little holiday tree. Once the kids were bigger, they didn’t care as much about decorating the tree (which used to be a very big deal, so much so, that we had to have 2 big trees so that everyone could have every decoration on them), which freed us to start getting ‘Charlie Brown’ trees – little and cute.
Holiday time is a happy time here at DogDaz Zoo. Make sure to keep your furbabies safe and tether your tree to something so that climbing cats and zooming dogs won’t bring it down to the ground. We have a permanent eyehook near where the tree goes every year. In the non-holiday season, it has a cat sculpture over it. Have a wonderful Black and White Sunday!
