Good morning everyone. It was 13* here this morning with a "Winter Weather Warning' for this evening. The weatherman asys we are going to get sleet and snow overnight and into Thursday morning.
I worry about Mama going up and down the steps on the Patio deck, so if there is ice here I will let her out through the garage door. The fur gang are all well and happy and warm. Last night Mama was sleeping so hard in the family room it took her a while to get to her feet and go to the bedroom for the night. Once in the bedroom she laid down on her bed with a loud thud and she was out again. This morning , she was the first one up growling at me in a low guttural tone that it was time to get up and let her out. I turned over with my back to her, so she let out a loud determined bark. To this I responded by getting up and letting her out along with the other girls.
By the time I got to the great room she was standing at one of the sliding glass doors telling me to let her in. Now tell me, who else has their own chauffeur , their own butler, always having the door opened for them, several beds to choose from in the house, an endless supply of food and water. When she wants to be loved on she gives the command and her wish is granted. She is always waiting on me at the bathroom door each morning telling me it is time for her walk, to which I get myself in gear and hit the road that leads to the open fields where she can run, sniff and investigate who and what has been there since her last visit. Don’t you just love it? Dog ownership has many rewards doesn’t it?
