Beautiful Play in Central Park

Pax’e and her friend Ruby taking a breather…

On this remarkably comfortable summer morning Pax’e and her new friend Ruby ran, tumbled, chased, and mouth wrestled to their hearts content.

Occasionally Pax’e would chase another dog, but back she would come to Ruby. It was a good long time of this tumbling until they were wet and tired enough to take a breather and pose for their picture. Maybe you can see how soggy they are.

Perhaps the sixteen-week-old Standard Poodle Ruby inspired Pax’e’s mothering instincts, or maybe Ruby is just a great playmate.

Thanks to Ruby’s human, Karen, for the picture!

Distract-O-Doggie Jersey during Covid-19 Quarantine

Because of the ‘stay at home’ guidelines, we have all probably spent more time with our loved ones than we normally would in a whole year.

That goes for our dogs, too…

While it seems Happy would love to keep playing the ‘race to the top’ game, Jersey is disinclined to acquiesce.

It’s possible that even our dogs need a little ‘me time’ too.

Distract-O-Doggie Little-Lily during Covid-19 Quarantine

Little Lily is a Dachshund/Papillon mix. (So called “little” because there is a larger Lily in class)

Lily has bounding energy and enjoys pushing discs across the floor (rivaled only by Ollie (the topic of another blog).

If Lily could speak, she would say,

“You guys got the toilet paper you need and then some.

But, pandemic-schmandemic – did you stock up on my dog food, too?”

Distract-O-Doggie Luna, Scout, and Ginger (Golden, Golden, Lab) during Covid-19 Quarantine

Like so many of us during this pandemic, Luna, Scout, and Ginger are also concerned about the availability of food.
They might be saying, “Hey humans, I don’t see any crumbs falling. What’s the deal?

And, if they are anything like my dog, toilet paper is of great concern for them, too.

Pax’e might be saying… “Did you need this? You’ll have to get your own.”

This is the real reason people are hoarding TP…
