marusic: Lovable Dawgs

The seasons are changing and time has flown.

There is no lack of communication, love or interaction in our perfectly blended family. The human-kind speaks a different language than the K9-kind, yet usually, we easily understand each other, with little-to-no trouble.

I hope you'll join me in this little update on our beautiful girl and boy.

Andy Jordan came to us in August of 2014.  He was scrawny and scrappy, taking to his new home like a stamp to a letter.

At home, our boy is seemingly fearless. In fact, he serves as a singular ‘Neighborhood Watch’,  alerting us to every two and four-legged passersby every time!

Two of the neighboring lady dawgs have taken quite a shine to Andy. Who will win his heart, Jasmine or Macy?  

As I read these gorgeous eyes, I’m thinking he will always be a Momma’s boy and I admit to loving that. 🌝

Andy and his sister, Zoey, recently had their yearly wellness check and some immunizations. These days make me miss our friend and former Vet, Doc. We were spoiled with individual service in a small home-like setting for his office.

Andy

​We love our new Vet, don’t get me wrong. This clinic has a staff of warm receptionists, compassionate technicians/groomers and several Veterinarians. Dr. Allison has a safe, nurturing and competent approach. Both Andy and Zoey are very comfortable around her.

I was reminded that my son is not good at masking his fear when in a new environment, like the doctor’s office. Focusing on giving a doggie back rub, I found myself quietly singing these songs into Andy’s ears...

Zoey

Now, Zoey is completely different in personality from Mr. Andy.  

While this self-assured young lady has only lived with us for a year, as of October 26th, it feels as though she has always been a part of the family.

Zoey sauntered into the Vet’s office with her Dad like she was entering a fine dining establishment.

As Andy and I waited for their return, yes, individual appointments, it seemed to be taking a bit longer than expected. Turns out we had to wait even longer as Zoey decided it’d be fun to eat the tip of a tongue depressor, along with a peanut butter snack!

All is well, not to fret. The antidote was a few Carafate pills to coat her stomach in a slushie form, with a slice of white bread.​

​Come to think of it, her remedy was a treat in itself. Smart girl! 
​
These two songs are perfect in the celebration of our free spirit (who knows her address and has the nerve to wait for us at the front door)! Gotta go - off to find the security breach in our fence!
