Bentley and Stella st play

Great weather for doggie playdate

Elizabeth lost Wookie, whom she had for 12 years. Johnny was grieving the loss.  They were not the only two- Stella lost her lifelong buddy!  I was asked to house sit, so the dog can have some happiness, as I tend to be upbeat and happy.

Over on the other part of town, Craig was now only taking care of one raw-food eating dog, rather than 2.  Maple had gone away in the separation.  Craig was not the only one to notice that… Bentley, the St. Bernard was missing his lifelong playmate.

Dogs are so awesome! They bring us such joy.  They try to cheer us up.  They help us clean the floor when we drop food! Thus, the only right thing to do is to find things to do to cheer them up when they’re down…. you know they try to bring us up when we’re down!

When her (Tito’s Vodka) leash is approached, Stella goes apeshit!  She jumps 4 feet in the air, and starts doing 360′s.  It’s fairly entertaining.  She was happy to get out of the house.

I took her for a small jog, and then in the car, and to meet Bentley.  The 2 of them have been wagging their tail all day long!

Oh, my Stella! That does us so well,Ori.We have been so worried about her being extra lonely while we were gone.Thank you so very much pal!

sounds like a very very good day;-)

Since that point in the day, we also went rock climbing, taught the dogs to trespass (in order to get to the rock climbing area), and brought another dog, Layla. So, now there was 3 dogs, and there was much running, and going into the river, and now somebody's a little sleepy from so much tail wagging.

AWE! Ori! Ain't that the sweetest thing!

This made me so happy - everybody should have a tail-wagging buddy!
