We don’t generally post on Tuesday but today is one that really applies to Wilson which is why we’re joining our friends at The Cat Blogosphere for “Work Like A Dog Day” today. This celebration is held every August 5th. Drop by their monthly calendar for all manner of cool celebrations and announcements.
While this is strictly an unofficial holiday, we think it’s important to celebrate all the hard work that working dogs like herding dogs, hunting dogs, rescue, service and in our personal case, therapy dogs who work hard, providing help and cheer for their humans. Please notice that the House Pony takes his daily contributions quite seriously.


Happy Tuesday peeps!
Awww, Wilson…I like how you “work!” So cute!
It’s a tough job but somebody’s gotta do it. 🤣
Aww we can see that he does😹Double Pawkisses for a Happy Day to the both of you🐾😽💞
Thanks, kitties. He’s a sweet boy who loves his down time. 😻
Great unofficial holiday!
And they’re so deserving of it considering all they do for us!
Lulu: “Don’t work too hard, Wilson!”
Hey I’m doing my best to pace myself. Happy Work Like A Dog Day, guys. Next month we’ll celebrate the cats.
Your fur-iend,
Wilson 🐾
I want to rub that tummy. XO
Thanks for the digital belly rubs, Miss Ellen…ahhhh, that felt good!
Your fur-iend,
Wilson 🐾
Benji: I dug out all the toys in the toy box today…does that count as work?? Petcretary was glad I didn’t go and dig more holes in the yard.
Dalton: I checked on petcretary when she was in the shower…gotta keep her safe, ya know!
We are glad you do all that therapy work, Wilson, it’s a wonderful dogupation!
Thanks so much, guys. We hope your Petcretary showers you both with loads of tasty treats this month. Yes, decorating with toys is hard work so feel free to rest and rejuvenate.
Big Appaws for the great good work our furry friends do! Wilson deserves that nap, he earned it!
Thank you. The lad knows how to nap, I’ll give him that!
He’s got a distinct style.
Hey Wilson, you really should have taken the day off from working so hard! Over at The Cat Blogosphere we love all our doggie pals!
I know, right? Maybe I’;ll take tomorrow off.
P.S. We’re enjoying getting to know some very cool cats. 😻
Way to go Wilson! Belly rubs for you.
Happy Tuesday to you and your Mum! :<3
Belly rubs AND a snooze. Thanks. Gosh, I think I’ve gone to heaven.
Your fur-iend,
Wilson 🐾

Maybe we should call it dog labor day. You know how to celebrate a holiday
Sounds like a good idea. Dogs give their all every bit as much as human laborers. 👍🏻
I can only believe that “working like a dog” means that we get to snack and sleep when we want to.
That too. Keeping our humans trained can be hard work since those thumbs are integral to treat dispensing.
You’re doing it right. Well done. You’re most handsome.

Have a woof woof day, Wilson. Scritches to you and a hug to your mom. ♥
Thanks Sandee. When it comes to work, this boy is tops! ☺️ Enjoy a pawsome day!
Thugs protesting that they too are working dogs…..guarding the property, guarding their food, keeping chairs warm….it’s a dog’s life.
