Distract-O-Doggie Mara during Covid-19 Quarantine

Dog welcomes new family member during Covid-19 crisis.

Mara is the cutest Mini-Mystery-Doodle ever. She is well known for her love of dressing up for any holiday occasion!

Like so many families during the Covid-19 quarantine, Mara’s family had another family member come to stay with them…

They are just starting to get to know one another.

Mara thinks to herself, “I hope she’s not going to steal all my holiday costumes!”

Luckily the little baby girl attached to these feet doesn’t take up too much room right now.

But, Mara is clearly concerned as she wonders, “Who has feet this small?”

Congratulations to Mara and her humans on their new addition!

Distract-O-Doggie Oakley during Covid-19 Quarantine

Oakley the English Shepherd takes social distancing to new extremes.

Oakley is an English Shepherd.

Oakley lives in Garrison, New York and like so many shepherd dogs, Oakley is a literal guy and he takes his social distancing very seriously.

Alone on his hill, Oakley waits (more than six feet away from everyone). He is ever vigilant and asks,

“Hello, any sheep out there?”

Really! No Sheep here, either!

“All right, where is everyone?

How can a herding dog work like this?“

“Hey sheepies – come on back. A dog’s gotta work!”

As a New York dog practicing social distancing, Oakley would make Governor Cuomo proud…

Distract-O-Doggie Ollie during Covid-19 Quarantine

Ollie stalks the unsuspecting stuffed animals and pretends to be a meerkat.

Ollie is a Dachshund-Poodle-ShihTzu mix rescued from a hoarding situation. He loves tricks and adventures.

Ollie works in NYC and weekends upstate.

Hiding in plain sight, Ollie stalks the unsuspecting stuffed animals.

Or perhaps because he is now working from home as a result of Covid-quarantine, he is sleeping in…

When Ollie is awake, he pursues his life long dream of becoming a meerkat.

He cares not for the fact that the Hudson Valley is nothing like the Kalahari Desert, the natural habitat of the Meerkat.

Ollie will make it work!

Distract-o-Doggie Series

How are the Distract-O-Doggie dogs keeping busy cooped up with their humans during the Covid-19 crisis?

The Three Dogs Training Distract-o-Doggie class has been running for twenty years

Many teams have been taking this class for almost all of those years – with different dogs of course. And they are all family.

Like so many families, we are separated by the current stay-at-home orders.

I wanted to keep everyone connected at this time. In the coming weeks the teams will be sending me pictures, videos, and tricks they and their dogs are doing to keep busy.

The first in this series will be, of course, my dog Pax’e in her new editorial position here at Three Dogs.

Stay tuned…
