Stay Safe, Play Dead
Lucy caught yet another opossum. This one was smart(ish) and played dead. It’s pretty convincing looking.

I Wasn’t Done
Our newest foster dog, Lulu. is giving Glen “the look” because he quit petting her. I don’t think she was ready for him to be done.
Lucy Goes Round the Mulberry Tree
Our dog, Lucy, sure does love eating mulberries. She apparently also loves smearing them on her face.
Foster Failure
Glen and I decided to adopt our foster dog, James. Calling it a failure doesn’t really ring true. He is getting a forever home and we are getting a great dog that already fits very well with our family.
James looks pretty happy about it.
His Last Day
Glen took Petey’s picture on his last day. We are all still trying to get used to a house without him in it.
Sad Farewell
Yesterday was a very long and sad day. Glen and I decided it was time to bid our sweet dog, Petey, farewell. At 16 he could barely walk without falling and we had no way of knowing just how much pain he was in. The decision is never an easy one to come to, and you always second guess yourself. I thought I would share two of my favorite pictures of Petey.
You were a sweet, gentle boy with the softest fur. You were loved and you will definitely be missed!
How Does She Sleep Like That?
This is from a couple of weeks ago when Lucy still had to wear the cone of shame. I forgot I had taken this picture. She is a master napper, so she didn’t let the cone get in her way.
Slow Down
Our foster dog, James, eats way too fast. As a result he throws up his food a lot. In an effort to stop this we got some bowls that are designed to slow fast eaters down.
Lucy eats pretty darned fast too, so she also got a “special” bowl.
