Raining cats and dogs.

I take every drop of rain I can get at the moment. We are expecting dry times and hot weather ahead due to the influence of an expected super El Nino. My dogs however, take each day as it comes.

Fynn is not a happy chappy when it rains. Why “go” outside when it rains when the hall wall is a perfectly suitable alternative? He’s so precious. Did I tell you the story of how we had to rush him to the vet earlier this year because he drank too much and nearly died of water toxicity? Clearly, drinking water is not a problem, but standing in it is.

Don’t make me!

Makea, on the other hand, loves to chill in the rain. She also loves to come inside and rub herself dry on the lounge chair. She’s so precious.

This is the life!

Ama fares well. She is perky despite some arthritis and continues to surprise us. The other day I glanced out the window at a man walking his dog past the house. Dogs have a sixth sense about how to embarrass their owners. His dog chose that moment to crap on my garden verge. The poor man looked toward the window and saw that I had observed this indiscretion. So he signalled to me for a bag so he could clean it up. That was nice of him. As I opened the door to pass him the bag, Ama flew past me and attacked his dog. She moved fast for an old girl. I don’t know who was more embarrassed. I’m so precious. Ama is a little cow.

Take care, everyone, and remember that life is precious.

Kind Regards.
Tracy.

  1. I thought the same thing Brian said about no poo bags on your dog walk. For shame, Mister! And he looked and saw you at the window. Busted big time! Your little precious ones are adorable, Tracy. Go get ’em, Ama. You tickle me. ❤️

  2. Thanks for the chuckle this morning Tracy! Dogs, and their personalities, are important family members. I loved all the personalities of your canine children. I carry poo bags in a little pouch that attaches to the leash. That man had no excuse!

    1. He was definitely a bit slack, Anne, and he knew that. I felt a little sorry for him. I often see unused bags that people have accidentally dropped. It is the habitual offenders that really annoy me. Your system sounds really good. It certainly reduces the number of dropped bags.

  3. Your sweeties are sweet! I too carry bags in my pockets, but sometimes I swich jacket with the weather and end up without a bag…not fun. Fortunately I almost always walk in the forest, so there is no problem.
