This is bit off topic, but where is that cute jacket on the dog from?

I had some beets with greens in my shopping bag and my little cat, Inca, reached up and was nibbling quite heartily on the greens.

Another time my little Inca decided that the Hydrangea leaves would be delicious. I had gotten the plant as a Christmas gift. That I hastily snatched away because the leaves are poisonous to cats.

She just loves to eat greens, whatever they are.

Martha, Dodger is wearing the brand new Ruffwear Climate Changer Fleece jacket. I just wrote a product comparison article on jackets. This zips up the left side (in some other discussion someone was asking about side zips, that’s why I used this photo).

It’s similar in style (not material) to Ruffwear’s Cloud Chaser for use in all inclement weather - http://www.ruffwear.com/Cloud-.....l-Jacket_2. They seem to have high quality materials and appear to be well made, so I like them. Not that Dodger would be caught dead in a jacket, but at 13 Ginger will need one this winter.

Hmm. My mom had a setter mix who loved coffee, too. I found out when I returned to the table and found my cup half empty with little splashes around it. Mom, it’s weird, I know, but I think Bel drank my coffee. Oh, yes, she said, he drinks it whenever he has a chance.

When a guest came, she’d bring them a “present”. I would have rather had chewed up underwear.

HA! I can top that one. I took Penelope to a friend’s place, and Nell went cruising around the apartment, looking for trouble to get into. I said I’d go get her - my friend said “no, never mind, there’s nothing she can hurt”.

Which was fine, until Penelope returned to the living room with something in her mouth. Something plastic and sorta fleshy colored. Something that buzzed.

Pretty much a classic moment, which was only enhanced by Nell’s reluctance to spit it out. I was laughing too hard to really correct her properly, and my friend was hiding behind a pillow, mortified.

Sometimes we are lulled into a false sense of security by our good old dogs who have learned proper manners over the years. We get a swift refresher course with a young “scientist” pup who is bent on trying everything at least once to see what happens.

Uncle Bogey is 13 today. Some of you know that Bogey is my Heather’s brother, also to Katie B’s Cali. With Heather’s recent death, Bogey is the last one standing. I simply could not be happier than to know that he can do that stand on two legs to counter-cruise!

Yay, Bogey. Happy Birthday, buddy.

That is a nice vest Dodger is wearing. Any info on that?

OTOH … if you would like to share counter-cruising advice, well, I know at least three people who will appreciate it.

LOL YeP… I actually heard feet on the Kitchen counter the other day and went flying into the kitchen yelling DOOOOOOLLLLLLEEEYYYYY! I should have been yelling BOOOOGGGGEEEYYYY! Apparently Big D and Great Uncle Bogey have more in common than just genes.
