I'm glad to be joining Heart Like a Dog in the Follow-up Friday blog hop again this week. This is the blog hop that lets you wrap up your week and leads you right into the weekend. Hosted by FUF creator, Jodi at Heart Like a Dog and co-hosted this week by Pup Fan from I Still Want More Puppies.
Those of you who follow For Love of a Dog on Facebook, already know about this. So if it is repeat... move along. I'm referring to my hummingbird incident. I went out to the studio to get some packages ready for shipping and as I walked in the door, I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I realized a hummingbird had come in with me.
Poor panicked hummer! With 10 foot ceilings out there, I knew it would not be easy getting him/her out. After an afternoon of periodically trying various ideas with the door wide open, the light bulb in my brain finally glowed. Snatched one of our hummingbird feeders from the deck and hung in in the open door.
"My" hummer was tired, slow, and totally freaked out. Not sure he/she saw it until another hummingbird - who was outside - came to check it out. Thankfully "my" hummingbird did, too, and escaped to freedom pronto! Silly as it sounds, I was exhausted! LOL
Our deer herd came to visit the other day. We couldn't help but wonder if they were checking to see if we still had a good hiding place to stash their fawns. Of course, we'd love to babysit their babies like we did last year. Especially since we seem to have finally scared off the coyotes.
Dog Song Saturday: It's All Right If My Dog Sleeps All Night With Me
Oh, how I wish I'd thought to do a survey with this post. I loved all the comments. Had a giggle at the thought of all five dogs in the bed with tubby3pug. Jeffie was thrilled to hear that Gambler has his own pillow on the human bed. Plus, he's hoping that Cadwaladr will be getting a pillow, too. Our dogs think that 2brown dawgs really should get a larger bed!
Our pack rarely all sleep with us at the same time. There are several dog beds in our bedroom (Dog Daddy says way too many) and they can choose where to sleep. With a puppy, we keep the door closed. Eventually, that will change and our pack can sleep wherever they want to in the house.
That said, Emma is not alone. The only other furniture our dogs are allowed on is the (big) doggie sofa in the family room. Well, Rosie keeps jumping into "my" chair in there, but she doesn't stay for long.
And if anyone loves Dachshunds, don't miss our Dog Song Saturday tomorrow - Wiener Dog Song!
Pit Bull Dog Baby Girl Needs a Forever Home
Baby Girl is still homeless and the only real follow-up I have is to ask you to share her photo and/or adoption video via social media.
Well, and to suggest you consider joining the Tuesday's Tails blog hop hosted by Dogs N Pawz .
Monday Mischief: First Doggie Pool
The doggie pool is a big hit with Rosie. More often than not, we need a dog towel when she comes back inside the house. Pretty sure a larger pool is in the Talking Dogs future.
Kirby asked if we tried a lake. Jodi made a good point about how you just never know what a dog will do. Same point was made by Shiner who swims in the lake, but never tries to get in the kiddie swimming pool.
Neither Jeffie nor Rudy have been interested in our pond or creek, other than just to get their feet wet. We're going to give Rudy another chance with this soon. Though Rosie hasn't been offered that chance, yet, I suspect she'll like it. We'll keep you posted.
Previous dogs of ours who liked the doggie pool also liked large bodies of water. And those that thought the doggie pool was a giant water bowl? They didn't want anything to do with swimming any where.
The exception was my tripawd Benji. Though he only cared to stand in the doggie pool (and didn't do that very often), he loved to swim. He even had his own raft to lounge around on when he got tired.
You Can Help Oklahoma! Blogger Disaster Response Network in Action
This is a bit contrary to my own blog post and maybe I shouldn't share this. However, we chose to financially support the efforts of the Central Oklahoma Humane Society for the tornado relief efforts. You can read more about those efforts on their blog.
