A little about...Dogs


Did you know that domestic cats "pets" will start to eat the flesh off your body after you die, before your body is even cold?

Point goes to Dogs.

I love how dogs all have such unique personalities. As mention before I have 3 labs, 2 yellow and 1 chocolate and they are all different from one another.

Secret is the oldest and whom we affectionately call the "queen bee". She is often a very playful and affectionate dog, running around and snapping her jaws at us to encourage playing, however she is also very...high maintenance. For example all the dogs like to go for car rides and Secret always sits in the passenger seat, unless of course I am the passenger. When I have to kick her out of her "thrown" she will remove herself to a back seat but will refuse to look at me. She simply stares out her window and if she peaks at me to find me looking at her, she will snap her head right back to staring out the window, pretending I am not there. The character in her personality is most interesting and always amusing, especially when all is forgiven with a treat. ;)

Dublin is our puppy. Well she is actually almost 4 but she is always happy happy happy and I have never seen a tail whip back and forth so quickly in my life. She lives to live and is always ready for a belly rub or an ear scratch, or to play. Dublin is also the dog that ALWAYS smiles at you with squinty eyes and everything, very cute!!!!

Rhythm is our pup. She is 2 and still enjoys the odd chewing of socks or wood blocks. She has a very thick coat of beautiful brown hair and HUGE FEET. I call her my bear because of these traits.

Over all our dogs complement each other and our family. I have always had dogs as part of my family and would never consider not having them. They bring life to an empty house in my opinion and share in our ups and downs. I always feel like animals bring things into perspective...often they will sense your down and be there to comfort you but you can always see them wondering "what could make her not want to play?" Which really is a valid point, life is meant to be fun even in times that seem impossible.

Well that’s a little about my dogs, until next time,
