All of my children have paws =^..^=

Good morning! We all took a drive to the rescue shelter to visit Dash-boy [as Libby calls him] He is beautiful and looks a little different from the rest of the litter, he is grey mixed with a little white and a darker grey. He has sort of a freckled little face mostly grey with some white mixed in, his brothers and sisters are mostly all grey. He also has a blue ribbon with a tiny jingle bell on it that jingles as we were calling him over. He is adorable and the name fits him perfectly. The mother also has the white freckled face as Dash-boy has so maybe this will stay this way I hope so because, it looks so cute on him and beautiful on his mother. He will be able to come home with us in few weeks. I hope so because Libby was crying all the way home.. I think she thought he was coming home that day so she was very disappointed but, when she got home and saw our other three dogs she felt a bit better. And was distracted for the moment. Here's wishing you all a peaceful week! Anna

Happy Monday

beauty- I was laughing at the visual of Cookie's butt in your face while you were typing. They know how to get our attention. I am glad you are surviving and that Cookie is doing well.

Michelle- I hope you stop by. We start a new thread each week thanks to sheltie mom.

sheltiemom- it must be weeks before your first _now.

matty - I know you are excited about your puppy. Wait…..Dash as in KarDashian?

beastie-I hope all is well with your crew as well.

Hopefully the flooding rain will stop. We were getting 4 -6 inches in an hour and a lot of people are thing swimming lessons. I remember about some people in the north getting 9 inches in an hour and I can NOT imagine that much rain. I did have to visit the water closet more when all that rain came down.

Now most of you know that low rider dogs do not care to go out in the wet stuff. When I take the girls out and they see the wet stuff they put on the brakes and about knock me down. I made them go out anyway and Liebchen gave me a stink look. She went ahed and went off the edge of the driveway to potty in the mulch filled bed. Well you can imagine her surprise when instead of landing on firm mulch she went underwater and was doing the doggie paddle through mulch. It looked like mulch but it was all floating on the massive rain. I fished her out and she gave me a double stink eye. I found a safe place to potty and then brought her in to dry her off and warm her up. The next time we went to potty she stayed in her bed and gave me a stink eye as if to say, I am not falling for that again.

Kardashian .... No connection ......heaven forbid! Now that's a scary thought LOL

Matty- That is funny. My brain was spinning wondering. I am glad that Dash will just be dash as in dashing!

AH yes, thanks doxie!

Hi all, made it through Monday!

beastielove, thank you for helping me start out the week!

matty, your little Dash sounds so cute. My Lily has a freckle face too! How soon before you can bring him home? It's been so long since I've had a puppy, but I remember after my first Sheltie passed away, it only took me about 2 weeks to know I needed another dog and I found one, but of course I had to wait until the puppy was old enough to bring home. I remember DH helped build a pen in our kitchen and I spent the time "decorating" the baby's new room, lol! Maybe that's what Libby can do to get all set for Dash's arrival.

Doxie, holy cow, that is a serious amount of rain you are getting! Wow, I don't blame the girls at all for not wanting to go out to potty! Seriously, my backyard floods once in a while and I get beside myself trying to find a safe spot for the dog to go. I mean you can shovel _now, but there's not much to do with all that water.

Prayers going out to Michelle and her family.

Waving hi to every one this evening, QsZoo, NChg, Mojo, panda, beauty, dapet, teganslaw, x-stitch, grandkids, and I know I'm leaving people out, but I don't mean to!

And with the very sad news tonight... RIP Robin Williams. God speed.
