MY FAVORITE PEOPLE



On the face of it, this means seems kinda dumb, but really, it isn’t—bear with me a moment.

Of course there are many people who qualify: my family, my friends, my church friends, neighbors, etc. But . . . none of them greet me with as much happiness and excitement as dogs do. Abby our new chiweenie is thrilled when she sees me, and so are granddawgs Sunny and Bruno. Dogs just have that wonderful way of showing us humans that they value us in a very special way, do5 they? And they’re considered man’s best friend for many reasons. Dogs are just special!


Happy Tuesday, DURiends ♥️

IT’S MEME MONDAY

 





What’s going on in your world out there? If you didn’t know, we now have two pets: Abby, a chiweenie, and Dexter, a solid black, green-eyed cat. Both were my late brother’s pets: we’re keeping Abby, and Dexter will go to his new owner in a few weeks. We haven’t had a pet actually living with us since our doxie Duke died in 2017. 

They’ve adjusted well, I think, and so have we. We are enjoying watching their antics, and getting used to Dexter going anywhere in the house he pleases, as cats do. We did have a cat when our daughters were growing up, but had forgotten how cats just do what they want, lol. 

Have a great Monday!

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

Something for everyone and all ages! (8+):

🔲🔹🔲🔸🔲♦️🔲▪️🔲🔹🔲🔸🔲

THE DACHSHUND ESCAPADES by Sarge the family dog has these exciting experiences in his adventures:

🐟FISHING: Sarge relates “A Fishing Story” he witnessed, involving Grandpa “Papa” Duke and his old Army buddy Sellars—an unbelievable story that rivals any fishing tale out there!

🚐TRAVEL: How about a cross country RV trip (from North Carolina to Arizona) with another doxie and two humans? They experience a wide variety of local cultures, sights, smells (and food), narrated by Sarge, who lived to tell about it!

🎄HOLIDAYS: Christmas, New Year’s, Easter, Thanksgiving, July 4, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, etc., birthday parties—all through Sarge’s eyes: but he does go kinda heavy on describing the yummy FOOD (forgive him—he’s a dog and a chow hound extraordinaire!).
