Bits Of Advice For New Dog Owners
Last week, I “fostered” a dog for four nights – not a big deal. He was a hound-mix, about a year old,...
Some things I will never understand: Three GSD pups rescued from the #northcomplexfire at age 6 weeks, all three singed but fully recovered... and never claimed post-fire. Many owners identified their pets and relinquished them to county animal control, which (though sad) is best for the pets; it enables animal control to put them up for adoption immediately. But to never claim them means they have been waiting for nearly two months in a shelter so their owners have every opportunity to claim them before they are made available for adoption. They have spent more than half their lives so far in a shelter pen — critical weeks in their development! Sad on top of sad. The good news is, they will be adoptable soon from the northwestspca dot org
Samson doesn’t enjoy temps below 70.

Vet visit for Miss Coco; Woody tagging along as canine security blanket. (OMG, you guys, a vet who will let us come into the clinic! I am so excited!)
Took the gang to the lake this afternoon and had it to ourselves — heaven. (Not normally crazy about 90 degree days in mid-October, but when fall gives you summer, go swimming!)
“What?”
She may be a kangaroo, but she’s a happy little kangaroo
I can use this to blackmail her when she is out of her teenage phase. #crushingonwoody
Foster pup has a mystifying medical issue. Will be posting about this in the WDJ blog later this week. Had to post here first so there would be a way for readers to see Coco in action.
*Bonus* You get to hear me tell my darling Woody to “Go away!!” (I was trying to film and he was shoving me, trying to get me to throw the ball. Sorry!)
You don’t have to throw it. Just give it to me!
Please throw the ball!
I guess this is just how it goes with open seating, as it were: smallest dog on the biggest bed, largest dog on the smallest bed, and best dog in the crate.
New, cute poses of her love affair with (somewhat indifferent and highly tolerant) Woody
Foster puppy loveslovesLOVES Uncle Woody. He is accustomed to this adulation, lol
Took a minute for ourselves. Ahhhhh.
Woody has a new project puppy.
Having hands would be helpful, but he does okay. (I think he deliberately drops his ball into places that will sometimes elicit my help...but I wasn’t helping, so he had to deal.)
The smoke dissapated enough today to take the first walk we've taken locally for weeks. Woody's best friend Samson joined us and hit the best poses.
"You're leaving us again, aren't you?" Spending long days at the emergency animal shelter, where pets displaced by local fire are being cared for by volunteers. It's hard on our own dogs, but at least they have homes.
