Duckling Update (With My Apologies)

Some furiends, like the famous and loveable blog readers Jed and Abby have asked for a duckling update. So sorry! Life at our home is rather hectic since the Great Dane puppies arrived. The duckling story had a much happier ending than we could have ever imagined. I'm going to redirect you to their initial home, their "birthplace", Creekhiker's blog. 

In sum: All ducklings and their mama are thriving. They are nearly 2 months old and almost full fledglings. They are wild enough to rehabilitate. They've already survived a few days in their new surroundings. Whatever happens next . . . it's up to Mother Nature.

Vaya Con Dios, Duck Family! Thank you for letting us take care of you and change your dirty stinky water every day. We are all too happy with the outcome. It was all worth it!

The Collar Tree

We are usually given our baths on weekends. The cats get groomed indoors. They get their coats "furminated" and their claws trimmed (to our great relief!). In the summertime, we the dogs, are groomed outdoors. We get brushed and bathed. We also get manis and pedis (ugh).

Our clean collars are left to dry on the designated "Collar Tree"

See how many you can count.

Once Upon A Time

A Story about a real Great Dane and a Great Dane Wanna-Be

Once Upon a Time . . .

 Ziggy, the real Great Dane, got a hold of a dog toy, the famous Mr. Chicken.

Ziggy fell in love with Mr. Chicken and made him squeak-a-lot.

 Pedro, the tiny orange Great Dane Wanna-Be loved Mr. Chicken too, so he waited for a chance to play with him too.

 And waited . . .

 And finally, Ziggy took a tiny break from chewing Mr. Chicken.

RUH-ROH!!!

 This Real Great Dane is super sweet, but not as smart. Besides, he's only a puppy!

 Ziggy eventually tried to get Mr. Chicken back, but the tiny orange Pedrito taunted him with it. Neh, nah, nah, nah...

And some more taunting . . . Hey, nah, neh, nah . . .Vaya Con Dios

Ziggy eventually got Mr. Chicken back and then Pedro and then Ziggy and then Pedro and then Ziggy and ... I think you get the picture!

THE END

Sasha At the Emergency Vet's Lobby

When Ziggy, Sasha's bro, was hospitalized at midnight last Friday, after getting stung by a bee . . . Sasha waited patiently for him.

 "Huh, what? Ziggy, is that you? Are you ok?"

"I'm ready to go home, siss!"
