Greetings! We hope all the Dad’s had a great Father’s Day yesterday but now it’s time to begin the new week.

Whatever happens this week, we definitely hope there are enough tennis balls for everyone this week. For the optimists out there, only 96 days until the official arrival of autumn. Stay cool, it’s gonna be another hot one. Happy Monday.
Live, love, bark! 🐾
Love that cartoon!
Thank you so much for your card and kind thoughts. It really lifted my spirits when the postman delivered the package. I am trying to thank everyone personally either by email or on their blog.
Jackie
Glad you enjoyed the smile and the card. Know we’re keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. 💙 Hugs and tail wags.
I’ll take the heat over the cold any day! 🙂
You can have it with our blessings. I’ll just huddle together under a pile of dogs and blankets. 😂
MOL…must be a dog thing…MOL…Double Pawkisses for a Happy Day to all of you🐾😽💞
Hee, hee…sometimes they’re not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. 🤣
That is a cute cartoon!! That doggie needs to learn not to woof with his mouth full, BOL!!
Its going to be 90 or 95 everyday this week, here, and heat indexes of 100 – 105F. UGH!
EEK…the one thing about heat here in the Mile High, at least we don’t have humidity to go with those 90+ degree days. I’d have to move if that were the case. 😇
Instead of “Tennis, anyone?” this is more like “Tennis, everyone!” I could definitely see a doggie doubles match playing out like this…by not being able to play.🎾 Have a good week, Monika!
Hahaha! Yes, tennis for EVERYONE! 😆
🤣
Java Bean: “Ayyy, did someone say tennis balls? Have you got one for me?”
You can have all the tennis balls at the bottom of our sizeable toy basket. Neither Elsa or Wilson are fetch dogs-they look at me like “why in the world did you throw that ball-you go get it!” 😆
Bahahahaha! Tennis ball shortage on Court 3!
Right! Though never at the Ranch. The Ranch Hands could care less about balls. 😁
Haha!
At least they’re not those annoying pickle ball players. LOL
Bahahahaha!
BOL – that’s quite the mouthful:). When we get a tennis ball, our only goal is to break it into pieces. So needless to say, Mom says no tennis balls for us.
Woos – Misty and Timber
Bwahahaha! Yeah, chewed up pieces of balls is no bueno. Have a pawsome Monday, Misty and Timber and tell your Mom hi from all of us. I don’t know why I’m not receiving notifications of new posts and was thinking about you guys. I’ll have to periodically check up on you guys. There are a couple other Blogger accounts where this has happened despite signing up and following. Sigh.
At least they can’t bark like that, LOL!
🤣 Good point.
ROFM/ROFL!!!! This comick iss so funny Miss Monika an Elsa an Monique…….mew mew mew…..

Thanks, BellaDharma and BellaSita Mum. We’re glad you enjoyed it! Have a Happy Monday and an even better week.
😀
Tennis balls are valued items around here. It is too bad they are not more durable. A few fetches and they look like pot stickers.
Now that’s quite the image! LOL
😊
😁
Don’t worry we will not run out of tennis balls. Our Rollo loves the bigger balls more.
I wish my lot like balls but they just look at me like I’m dumb asking them to chase something I threw. It always cracks me up.
yes tennis balls for everyone!
It sounds good but the Ranch Hands are more treats for everyone. They’re not much into balls and only on occasions will they take up a stuffie. But it still makes for a fun Monday smile anyway. Hope yours is wagnificent-stay cool if you can.
LOL! You find great comics! Yes, I enjoyed being out early this morning before the heatwave begins! Happy Monday!
Thanks. With this heat you HAVE to start out the day with a smile. We were out just after dawn getting our 5 miles in-once we get home, I refuse to leave the house again! LOL Happy Monday.
5 miles, I am impressed! And yes, stay in sipping on something cool. 😊
Elsa does her a bit over a mile and a half, then I drop her off at the house and then Wilson and I continue the balance. Usually I walk about 8+ miles a day but with the heat, it’s gotten to be too much. The rest of my mileage comes from walking back and forth to the grocery store which is only a little over a mile away for fresh veggies & fruit and 4-5 trips to the post office every week since I never can be sure when/if any mail will be delivered/picked up. Any mail from me was personally walked to the substation. 😉
Yes, don’t overdo it in the heat, but that is great that you get that exercise every day. And finding out that you walk to the post office makes your cards all the more special! 🥰

Mom’s first dog was a lab/newfie mix who loved tennis balls. She always had two in her mouth, one would not do. It was fun she said but she never wants another ball fixated dog as it drove her crazy a lot. Great cartoon, have a good week!
Thanks. That tickled our funny bone. Sometimes those ball obsessed dogs can be a bit too much.’ Happy Monday!
Bwahahahahaha. You made me laugh out loud.
I linked this post to Awww Mondays.
Have a fabulous day and week. Scritches to the pups. ♥
Yay…our work is done for today! Happy Monday, Sandee and as always, we thank you for adding us to your link.
Funny…. I count the days to fall around this time of year and lament that in another 4 months or so it will begin cooling down. I like the hot, especially the payoff in the evening sitting under the stars in warm temps. Around the Golden K balls seem to disappear and reappear randomly. Have a great week at The Ranch. Wishing you mild afternoons and cool evening breezes.
We have the same trouble with stuffed mousies. If I move a big piece of furniture it’s like Christmas!
Deep cleaning at the Ranch almost always brings forth some interesting surprises-not all of which are just dust bunnies. 🤣 Have a great Monday.
I know there are lots of folks who really enjoy the summer warmth. Sadly we’re not part of that group. We prefer temperate temps and seasons. Have a great Monday and rest of the week!
HA! When we had our two big dogs the sure loved their tennis balls!
Balls are foreign to both the Ninja and the House Pony. They look at the thrower and seem to wonder ‘why’d you throw that round thing?’ Here’s to a sweet Monday, Terry.
we hope all will have a ball this week … and summer time…
We couldn’t agree more. Happy Monday!
I think because it’s going to be a hottie here the tennis folks are on the courts now finishing up a few hours of ball bashing before the heat sets in. At least I hope so. My husband was out in our yard doing some early morning trimming while it was still cool! Love the ‘toon….the message would be “never play tennis with a dog” !
Hugs, Pam
We were doing our walk shortly after dawn. It’ll be another day in the upper 90’s here and while the humidity is low, it feels like walking into a pizza over. I love pizza, but umm…no thank you! Have a great Monday.
You throw something for the thugs and they look at you as if you were mad!
My pair have the same reaction. They must think well you threw it, you go get it! Elsa in particularly thinks ball retrievers are the dumbest dogs alive. Happy Monday, Helen.
