It seems they are drawn to cardboard boxes or paper bags!  It's so cute and funny to watch!

Henry LOVES to eat cardboard boxes. Sometimes I will give them to him because he enjoys it so much. He also loves grocer day. He grabs the empty paper bags and tosses them and chases them and eats them. Weirdo.

I love these stories. The warm my heart. I just thought of one.

I know a dog name Oskar. He is some kind of cocker spaniel. He is beloved by a newly married couple who treat him like their baby.

Anyway Oscar was signed up to become a hospice dog. If he graduated he would be brought into a hospital to be with sick people etc. He is a friendly nice doggie.
The training is quite gruelling. Doggie training gruelling you may say. Yes, it was.

On the night he was to be tested both of the loving newly marrieds were sick with bad coughs and runnie noses.  Nevertheless, Oskar went for his test. One of the parts of the test involved several people with noise makers trying to upset Oskar and keep him from being "present" for the sick person.  He passed with flying colours. He was given the highest award and became a certified hospice dog. His owners were beaming with pride.  They phoned all their closest relatives and emailed their friends, such was their pleasure in their doggie.

The next morning the young wife awoke to the sound of Osckar throwing up.
She ran downstairs and found guilty doggie. He had eaten 12 packages of cough candies paper and all. There were bits of  tinfoil papar throughout the house.
He was ok but the luster was off his brilliant performance as a certified hospice dog.

Today the Moon family went to an animal retreat .It was so beautiful Mr moon and moonlet and my sweet mother in law loved it.
(she got around on an electric cart)

The whole place is accessible for wheelchairs etc.
Well we went into the hummingbird exhibit and our 2 photographers Mr moon and teen moon had a great time
because the hummers came so close and I was sitting on a bench with my mil and a hummer with a blue crown landed on my head :lol:
and yes Mr moon got a photo tee hee and of course we all laughed and tiny teen moonlet laughed the most .

Later teen moon got a great photo of a red cardinal she just loves everything her dad does and they are good buddies. :D

Moon hon,
Why am I NOT surprised that hummingbirds are attracted to you???

Thanks much for that joyous story.

I think one reason you've found so much happiness in your life is that you have such a deep capacity to appreciate simple joys. And your family is so clearly secure in your love.

Just goes to show that children/survivors of Ns can grow up (at any age!) to create happiness in their lives.

Thank you for showing and sharing that.

hugs,
Hops

Our animal companions offer unconditional love..to us...and to one another".

"They teach us many things ,including patience,generosity,respect and impermanence,but what do we really give them in return"? :shock:

awwwwh  (((Moon)))

So very true
I just love my two kitties
They each have their own little way of showering me with their love and affection

Whenever I am feeling unwell or a little sad, they know and they snuggle up to me.

I watched a show on giant crocs last night and the fellow had hand-raised one (his name was Jaws). While a keeper kept feeding him hunks of chicken, the man was able to handle him, touch him, and measure him.

He was a pretty fat croc.

I actually felt affection, even though I used to feel a little shiver about such predators. Turn away from the tube when they were attacking an animal on the riverbank. Last night I thought that these animals die fairly quickly, really, so it may not be such a bad end.

Anyway, I wanted to pat Jaws.

Dogs get the last laugh too!

I have two doxies. One bites people and the other bites other dogs.  When people come I have to put my doxie Jay in his cage.  The other day my daughter came home with her boyfriend and his beagle.  So Jay (the human biter) got to stay out and Fritz (the dog biter) got to go in the cage.
Jay just loved my daughters boyfriends dog, they ran, they played, they wagged tails. Then they disappeared. Jay took his new friend into my room where my other doxie was caged and just sat with his new found friend looking in at poor Fitz. I swear he was smiling. 
Pay back.
Love Deb

Hee!

Doxies are very very cute, imo.

Are they normally mellow?

They're mutant   :o hounds, not terriers, right?

They're JUST the size I'd like, and short-haired to boot.
But I need the world's MELLOWEST small dog.

A rescue will be just the thing and I hope I wait a long while.

Last thing I need, but I do think about it a lot. (Don't tell Bagel.)
