Oh, I forgot to give an update on my favorite 3 dogs and Ms Petunia (the caT):
When I arrived at my BFF's home yesterday, Simon (Jack Russell) began to howl his words in such a sad, happy way, lol. He gets very talkative around me, when he hasn't seen me for a spell.
Toffee, the blind Blue Healer Lab mix, she gets jealous when Simon wants all the attention, so after I got settled into the big easy living room rocking chair, Toffee got up on the arm of the chair to 'rule the roost".....So I rocked in the chair and sang sweet lullabyes to her, and she just lapped up all the special attention I gave to her. She was so happy, that she never even went into a fit of barking when anyone came to the front door and rang the doorbell. This was such a huge sign in her behavior that everyone came out to the living room to see why Toffee wasn't up to her usual "I'll bark til your ears fall off!" LOL
Buttons, the tiny miniature poodle mix? Oh,,,,, he didn't pull any fast moves on anybody but just stayed on the sofa.....I'll guess before I got there, Buttons was a very bad dawg.

But I gave Buttons a treat for not peeing on Simon and biting Toffee in the neck.
Ms Petunia???
She's my baby girl, she sure is. After the dogs went outside for a spell, she came out of her hiding place and raced up to my lap to say, 'Hello', then she promptly stretched out on my legs and rolled over onto her back, for a long tummy rub. After a while, she got up and crawled up to kiss me on the nose.
