FLASHBACK TO BOOLATRY
The Zoolatry Human was talking to me the other day ~ all about the month of October.
She said that Zoolatry would turn into Boolatry and all month long it would be
sweet-or-scary for those who used to live here ... like Dougie Dog, and our Angels, Maggy and Zoey.
And the grand pets Chewy and Fiona. And often she would have many friends from the
pet blogging community get all dressed-up and they would show up here, too!
But we couldn't do that this year, the ZH was too busy with bunches of other stuff, and I was
thinking it was a little bit scary for me. So instead, she said "why don't you flashback, and share
a few of our favorites from the Boolatry days of old" ... so here are just a few!
That's Dougie Dog and Zoey together up top as "pumpkin heads" and then
right beneath what are probably the ZH's all-time favorite scary-Bark-O-Ween pictures
of Dougie Dog. [and yes, in case anyone wonders, she does hugely miss that wonderful and
awesome Dougie Dog ... who is happily still with his boy]
And below, from our Florida home (c.2008), where although Angel Zoey truly "ruled the roost", there were those
times when Angel Maggy could get the better of her ... especially if "treats" were involved!

CATURDAY ART
July 11 was All American Pet Photo Day. We didn't post on that Saturday, so this is a delayed showing of our favorites ~ choosing to do a simple montage of each of our special pets: Dougie Dog, Angel Zoey and Angel Maggy. Photos we think highlight them best and show their character and beauty ... photos that are un-altered, but simply cropped and arranged.
Thank you to Athena and Marie for giving us all the opportunity to "show off"
our art by being part of the

I am really thankful for my big back yard.
And I think Wilson is hiding out there in what I call the "back forty", all those
bushes 'n' little trees 'n' weeds and stuff, way way back there, so I do have to go
find him before I go inside ... and join the

AWWW HOT-HOT MONDAY
Hot, hot, hot today ~ WAPO says it'll get up into the mid 90s and we're almost there now!
And it'll be that way all week long!
So of course, that also means late afternoon thunder-dunder-storms.
Thankfully they don't bother me, but I always put my paws together
for my furriends who do get really upset by them.

So I've been out in the back forty, me 'n' Wilson as usual. Just up here for a deck-rest
and some fresh water and a cool down.
Then back to the back-forty, yeah, the usual stuff.
Here's to a great day to one and all, whatever you may do with yours ~ enjoy!

SUNDAY SELFIE with DOUGIE DOG
Good morning ~ or afternoon, as the case may be where you might live!
Happy Easy Sunday. I'm sharing a smile today, just as I did yesterday, and I hope you are sharing smiles, too!
And below, I'm doing my part, as we all should, to help our small corner of the world
stay healthy and safe. I wouldn't want Wilson - or anyone - even all the woofers on my street,
or those good peeps who walk them back and forth each day - to become sick.
I think you all want the same thing.
If you visited me today, thank you.
Now it's time to stop in to see all the other

CATURDAY ART in words ~
A beautiful morning, we sat together on the deck, coffee, the morning paper. I said, "smile, Dougie Dog" and so he did.
Much earlier, being one who rises well before the sun is fully up, and walking out to pick up the paper ~ a young deer munched on clover in an un-mowed strip of grass between two homes across the street, a sight common in our neighborhood. Nearby a little bunny breakfasted on the same clover, his white puffball tail bobbing. In our yard two chubby early bird robins searched in the yard for worms. There was a slight smell of flowers in the air that I couldn't identify and the birds were beginning to wake and sing their morning songs. Yes, it would be a beautiful day, and it made me smile.
And I said to Dougie Dog, "smiles are such good things" and he smiled again. We are nurture and nature, though it seems when one reaches many, many years here that nature is the greater influence and I asked Dougie Dog what his thoughts were on smiles. I wonder if my own are really "my own any more", listening, being an avid reader, observing ... all now crammed together in my mind, can there possibly be an original thought? Or would I only pull out a jumble of things from there that belonged to someone else, things said elsewhere, written elsewhere now merged into something I think is my own? I have no answer to that.
So I asked Dougie Dog to share his thoughts on smiles, they may or may not be original thoughts. It's rather hard to say what is in the mind and heart of a dog. They, too, tend to be listeners and observers of life around them. Yet I also believe they are very wise. And so, Dougie Dog offered these very simple but beautiful thoughts for a beautiful day ~
A smile travels for miles only if you share it.
When I give you a smile, it is my gift to you, please pass it to another.
When I share a smile with you, share yours with me.
My name is Dougie Dog, and trust me, my smile is much better than my bark,
much better than a lick with this big tongue, or a whap with my strong tail,
and you don't want me stepping on your toes cause my nails are sharp,
and if you've never endured the infamous "Lab bump", well, watch out ...
it's likely to knock you over on your you-know-what! So...
smile back and we'll be friends for always, and a
pat on the head is really good, too! Thanks!

WORDLESS [Not Quite] WEDNESDAY
Hush. Don't tell. Look away.
I only need a little more time. Time when no one is around.
I've been working on this project awhile now. I'm almost there. It won't take much longer.
I think I have figured out how to open this gate latch!
And then - freedom!
Please, you be "wordless" about my work here. OK?
Actually I'm not even sure if I should join today's
WORDLESS WEDNESDAY BLOG HOP
at
COMEDY PLUS
... after all, I really don't want word of my secret project to get around ...
