  1. Sand Spring Chesapeakes – Cambria, WI – My husband and I have six "furry" children Gambler, Glory, Guilty, Slammer, Gertie and one cat Bones and two furangel's Norman and Nellie. We breed Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. We are both avid hunters. We also enjoy competing with our dogs in hunt tests and field trials. That is where you can find us during the trial months which are April-September. When were not at a trial we are busy training our dogs. We go snow goose hunting in Canada each year and do all the hunting that Wisconsin offers.

  2. It’s great to read how Elsa is coming along. My friend takes in rescue dogs as part of a rescue group. She was minding a very cute Maltese terrier x Tibetan Spanial who had come out of a puppy farm. I knew as soon as my daughter saw Stella we were in trouble. She was a small ball of fluff. We’re wanting to get another Border Collie in about a year and we’re not really in a good position for caring for a puppy farm dog and I was concerned about vet bills. My friend has found her the perfect home and this lady has another puppy mill dog and she is quite realistic about what it’s going to take and seems to have the money for the vet. Poor little Stella was shaking for 10-15 mins while I was holdig her on our second meeting.
    Things in our house get so stressful at the best of times that we just need to keep it simple for a bit.
    Hope you’re having a great week.

      Kudos for recognizing the tremendous responsibility with adopting any dog, let alone a rescue project. Those fluff balls sure are enticing though! Best wishes for a ‘pawsome’ week your way!

      1. Thanks, Monika. I spotted a toy border collie in a shop a few days ago and brought him home. We call him “FB” as in Fake Bilbo. I’m not sure whether you have come across weighted toys but they’re used to ease anxiety and so he feels like a real dog. He’s been fabulous. Low maintenance too!
        Hope you all have a pawsome week too! xx Ro

          What a terrific idea! Love it. I hope FB helps effurryone out while you guys process the loss.

          1. My husband was accidentally wagging FB”s tail tonight. He’s sitting on a chair beside Lady’s inside bed and the TV. He adds a comical element.
            We went to a friends’ house yesterday and had Lady with us. They have a rabbit pen inside and chooks outside. Lady was in heaven. Well, she would’ve been if she wasn’t on the lead. We were talking about how much Lady loves chicken and then I glanced over and my friend’s two year old daughter brought lady over one of their chickens. I don’t know how disaster was averted but the chook squarked and I saw what was happening. I’m sure Lady’s made a mental note of where they live and is dreaming up some midnight raids. xx Ro

              Or ways to avoid the squawking. 😉

  3. Well that is not the downward dog pose ~ maybe that is a new pose I’m not aware of.
    Namaste back at you.

      He looks like a slinky dog. 😂

  4. Lots of rabbits. And birds. And lizards. And mice. And quails. And coyotes. And deer. They chase everything, with very little success but for the occasional bird and mouse. Squirrels are their biggest nemesis.

  5. My Golden Life – Upstate South Carolina – I love animals, especially dogs. I enjoy US history, and reading biographies of our former presidents and other historical figures. I love the music of the '60s and '70s since I was growing up in those decades. I love the Beatles and Andy Williams equally.

    Callie used to get into some strange positions in her sleep, but I don’t think she ever got into this one…”downward facing dog”? 😂🐶
