Here are a couple more recent photo show entries. The first was taken for the Candyland Photo Show's "Animal Farm" class. I had so much fun putting this one together. I really love my 1:9 scale farm!

The rest of the week
So it hasn't quite been all dogs, all the time this week. In addition to a lot of boring things like going to the grocery store and cleaning, I did make time to ride Guaranteed, whose owner is recovering from surgery.
I had kind of given up on the latter until Daphne Headley made this post on the show's Facebook page.

All dogs, all the time
When I was seventeen, my friend, Lori, and I went on a hike and found a stray mama dog with a litter of puppies. Of course, we both wanted to save them, so we went home to plead our cases. I was shocked and delighted when my parents said that I could take one puppy. We drove back to the parking lot where we'd found them, but it turned out that they weren't actually strays. Their owner said she'd be happy to sell me one, but not the little girl pup I really wanted. That one was already spoken for.
Rather than settle for one of the boys, I went to the pound and found another sweet tri color girl. I named her Megan, and we were inseparable for almost a week. Then she started vomiting water. We took her to the vet, and she died there. It was awful.

Almost wordless Wednesday
Seth's squirrel garden attracted had a new visitor yesterday. Emma spotted him hiding behind a tree in our across-the-street neighbor's front yard, and she and her sisters sounded the alarm. I got my camera and was able to snap a few photos as he crossed the street and came right up to the edge of our lawn. It was exciting for all us!

Three dog family
We've been flirting with the idea of a third dog for a long time - years really - but more so since the beginning of the pandemic.
"Now is the time," we proclaimed. "We're all at home anyway."
With that, we logged on to Adopt-A-Pet and chose a likely candidate. We filled in the application, but not quickly enough. Someone else got her before we could even meet her.

She liked Seth just as much. If we could have, we'd have taken her home that day. However, the shelter wanted to see her interact with Darcy and Emma first.
It's really nice having a white dog in my life again.
