Happy 5th Gotcha Day Annie!!!



It has been a some what noisy summer as Mom and Dad have been getting repairs done on the house. Katy and I are sharing a new deck as this year's gotcha present. I must say we weren't thrilled with the idea of a new deck. The old deck was special. It was here even before Bailey. Dog Dad said that was the point. It had been here a very long time and it needed to be replaced. We had our doubts. A whole week of having no freedom to come and go on our own was rather stressful.

Also with all these crazy tropical storms and then threats of tornadoes we haven't really had the chance to experience being out on the deck. It has merely been a means of exiting and entering the house. We are hoping as the fall weather comes we will come to appreciate the new deck as much as the old.

Mom says it is hard to believe it is 5 years since she and Dog Dad returned from their Maine vacation with Katy and then went to CT to go and bring me home. I'm not sure how they got along without me. I take very good care of all of them. After all who would have been Dog Dad's office Dog during COVID? Katy is certainly not office dog material.

We aren't around as much anymore. We have kept reading and following our friend's blogs. It is good to know others are still out there blogging. Mom has focused more on her craft stuff but she is still interested in the pet world.

Happy 13th Birthday Katy!!



Katy becomes a teenager. It is hard to believe my baby girl has turned the corner to becoming a teenager. It seems only a moment ago that we put Bailey into the car on a Labor Day weekend to go pick up a beautiful shy Sheltie girl to bring her home.

Happy Birthday my beautiful girl. We are so glad you came to be with us.

Bailey's 5th Anniversary



With a friend having lost his dog this week and my own dear Katy turning 13 this week, my thoughts have been returning to Bailey. It is hard to believe its been 5 years, but our dear boy crossed the rainbow bridge 5 years ago today.

I find it hard writing about Bailey because it reminds me of what is to come rather than focusing on what I have today with my other two. However, Katy is coming to that milestone birthday Bailey reached and rather than facing it with fear today I want to celebrate the great joy that both dogs have brought into our lives. It was brutal watching Bailey go in that last year but I can't forget his gentleness, his kindness, and his love of play.


I will always love you my dear boy.

Friday Flowers: Pansies



Mom got some pansies for our deck flower boxes. These purple ones were dead headed when Dog Dad bought them so Mom was thrilled to see the actual colors.

When Thread Attacks....



Now Mom often accuses Katy and I of attacking her craft supplies. There are some fiberfill incidents best left not discussed without our attornies present. However, I'd like to present evidence that sometimes the craft supplies attack us.

Case in point here I am on the floor sleeping peacefully while Mom works on her crochet Barbie doll outfits and wham crochet thread hits the floor. Do I attack it, harm it? Clearly no. I leave it alone.

Is that enough for this aggressive thread? No it clearly attacks me. When I attempt to peacefully calm it by sniffing and licking Mom tells me to leave it alone and removes it.

Remembering Bailey on his Birthday



As Katy approaches 13 this June Bailey has been on my mind more lately. He would have loved having us both home like we've been since COVID. He was a people dog and loved nothing more than spending time with us and Katy.

It will be 5 years this June since we lost him but he will always be a part of our hearts.

We hope all of our friends are well. I've been reading your blogs, I just haven't had much to post for the girls lately. Hopefully I will get to posting more soon. I wish all of you well.
