Really Bad Dog Drawings
Okay, so none of you have sent in your dog drawings from Monday, so I thought I’d get the ball rolling. After you see these, and after you have stopped laughing, start drawing. Yours can’t possibly be worse! (Remember, I told you I can’t even draw stick figures.)

Friday Funny: Fishing for Dogs
My son’s Big Brother took him fishing last week. When I asked Jimmy how he did, he said, “Mom! I caught a Basset Hound!”
I’m pretty sure he meant a bass, but you never know!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Are you smarter than a 5th-grade Vizsla, Dog Lady?
We’ve been trying to build up Cooper’s play drive by playing fetch with him more often, in hopes that he will want to chase a toy off the dock for dock diving. So, tonight he came over to me with a ball in his mouth. Naturally, I threw it for him, and praised the heck out of him when he brought it back. He gave it to me pretty easily, so I threw it again, but it went under the edge of the bed. (I throw like a girl.) He couldn’t see it, but he looked around for awhile, and I’m saying “Go get it! Go get it! Good boy, Cooper!” He appeared to lose interest because he couldn’t see it, then he went and got a different ball and brought it to me. I guess he’s not as dopey as he looks!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Dog Days of Summer
I think I found out what they mean when they say “Dog Days of Summer”. Yes, it’s been hot here, but that’s not the true meaning. We spent all day Saturday entertaining Maggie and Cooper (although we four-leggers had a good time, too.)
Bow Wow Beach
Wow! We took the dogs to Bow Wow Beach in Stow today – what a blast!!! Kayla started off right away being aggressive to the other dogs, so we had to leave her in the car. (Yes, I left the A/C on.) Penny didn’t think too much of the water, but Maggie loved it.
I met my first Leonberger – beautiful dog, but so hairy and incredibly big! His name is Kasey. The lab was named Kitty (too cute!). My son thought throwing the ball for the lab was a great game, and apparently so did Kitty!
The main reason we went was to try to get Cooper used to swimming so he’d be a little more interested in dock diving. I can’t say it was a total success, but he did get a little wet. I took a picture of him in the water so my dock diving friends would believe he actually got in. He only went as far as he could touch, but you could tell he was at least thinking about following the other dogs in a little deeper.
We stayed for a couple of hours, and now the dogs are absolutely exhausted! I don’t think any of them even sat down for a minute the whole time we were there. So many dogs to visit with, and so many people to sniff at.
And most of my pictures actually turned out this time!
Anyways, if you’re near northeastern Ohio, make sure to make time for a trip to Bow Wow Beach in Stow. It’s a great place, and best of all, it’s free!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
