Today's weather isn't exactly fur coat compatible says Summer.
Fans are strategically located around the house so she has cooler spot for a lounge options.
Lukewarm shower for her pal.

She looks so innocent.
Don't let her fool you.
She is an instigator.
For sure.
Her pal called her on the phone. She could hear his voice and came running from the other side of the house. It's good that one of us can hear a pin drop a mile away.
She and her pal hatched a plan.
They miss each other.
He will ask to sit outside his room for a bit tomorrow after breakfast. Summer might be taking a walk in the same neighborhood.
It would be pretty sweet if they connected.
Little do they know that I already got permission from his doctor. Keeping that tidbit of information to myself.
It sounds like all treatment plans for my husband are on hold until he is infection free. The soonest he can transfer to another hospital or come home will be sometime next week.

The plumbers have arrived and Summer is keeping a close eye.
She says she's not sure if they are authorized to put new lids on our septic tanks.
I reminded her that she was on board when we made the appointment.
She is giving them her fierce look.
She calls this one Beware of Summer.

Yesterday a box arrived in the mail for Summer.
It was full of her favorite kibble, a few treats and a new throwing disc. We finally got the box opened this morning.
She was so happy to play with something new.
Lots of throwing and fetching happened so good exercise was accomplished.
We are starting our day out in a joyful way.
Summer is feeling like her happy self.

TIMBER is 4 and and works on a nearby farm. He was at the vet for an annual check-up. Timber was a bit skittish and stayed close to his human. ❀️

It was time to cook Summer's breakfast so I left her in charge of her pal.
Next think I know there are strange sounds coming from the recliner.
Summer decided to lighten the mood.
Joke time.
She told him an oldie but a goodie.
Knock, knock
Who's there?
Ooze
Ooze who?
Ooze a good girl?
She got him to laugh out loud.
Leave it to Summer to start the day out with a smile.

How would we know if they follow the first rule? Besides, that is clearly a weird dog.

So happy to see my husband eat scrambled eggs and a piece of toast with no consequences. We celebrate every step forward and dismiss the rest as not worthy of our time and energy.
Done and done.
We can't sit on our laurels though.
Says Summer.
She led the way to the overgrown blueberry patch where we played I get one and you get one.
Summer picked the low hanging fruit.
I took everything else.
It looks to be a sunny warm day.
A good day for Summer to sit in the shade with her pal and watch grandma work.

We all got some sleep last night. Only up and awake twice in the night.
Much needed rest.
Summer woke up thinking about her team.
She has been faithfully watching the Detroit Tigers play win or lose.
Winning is more fun.
It's just the truth.
She brought my hat to me just in case we could traipse down the hill for an adventure.
I told her we can't leave home today.
She says she understands.
That doesn't mean we can't enjoy a fabulous breakfast and some sweet cuddles.
I'll even share my hat so she can represent too.
Good morning, Mastodon.

It’s been awhile since I shared a Maddie pic, but this was too cute to keep to myself. 🐢🐾

Sometimes fostering feels like volunteering to break your own heart. Today this sleepy little goofball heads off to his forever home. That’s the goal from day one, but it never makes the goodbye easier. The house will be a little quieter, but somewhere a family is about to get one hell of a best friend. That’s a trade I’ll make every time, even when it sucks.

Lots of happy Summer photos for those who enjoy the company of happy dogs.
I confess that I am one of those people.
Summer's biggest fan.

Summer really needs her daily run so I've been getting up at daybreak to hit the trail. I figure her needs are just as important as ours. She benefits from this three mile, or so, adventure in so many ways. Her pal is feeling low energy right now so wearing her out early makes for a relaxed rest of the day.
We are hoping for enough sunshine to give our garden a boost. Summer says Flower Power! Might be overly optimistic.
The trail was quiet.
Summer is literally the picture of happiness.
I didn't let her drive again but she never gives up asking.
Who knows some day maybe?
Good morning, Mastodon.

I respectfully submit to the Society a proposed new reference picture for the phrase "Puppy Dog Eyes". #DogsOfMastodon


We were adventuring earlier than usual today.
Everyone was awake so we launched into the foggy drizzle with a skip in our step.
I thought we might have the trail to ourselves but we encountered a federal wildlife employee who wanted to verify that Summer was truly under voice control. If I had seen him first she would have been on leash. She didn't even give him a bark and when I asked her to sit she sat right on my feet and stayed until I gave her the ok to get up. Inspection passed we carried on our way. Summer was a really good girl. I think he was concerned that she might run in front of his truck on the narrow trail.
We hurried along and finished our walk in record time.
Well record time for us.
Good morning, Mastodon.

Still trying to get back into a normal rhythm after the fireworks. Our turn for 100F temps soon, so lots of night creatures are keeping Geo awake

I woke up to a Summer alarm shortly after daybreak. I promised a beach adventure this morning and a promise is a promise.
She waited for me to brew a cup of coffee, brought me a hat, and we hit the road.
It has been at least a week since our last beach adventure.
Summer was excited.
She wonders if she can let it all hang out.
I laughed.
We rolled the windows down and sang along with Joy to the World to set the mood.
We're back!
Good morning, Mastodon.

After dinner we play.
All of us together.
This is our opportunity to engage in a little loving mayhem. Treats are dispensed with creative and joyful ingenuity.
We started with some small jerky treats flying through the air with the greatest of ease. Summer plucks them, before they fall, while we cheer her for her skills.
She brings her pal a toy which he scoots around with his feet. Summer decides the tease is too much so she grabs the toy to toss out of the fray.
I happened to catch both items in the air.
I asked Summer how cool is that?
She gave me a look because the cool part was being part of the action.
I shouldn't have to ask.
That's my story for tonight and I'm sticking to it.
A little truth in the ocean of untruths that overwhelm on social media.
Not a viral truth but truth all the same.
We need more truths.
Summer and I have a mission.
We will share our truth.
Mastodon friends uniquely appreciate truth in tooting.
Lucky for us.

Summer got caught.
Her pal is looking for his hat.
Summer says what hat?
Why are you asking me?
She looks so innocent.
Good morning, Mastodon.

I'm usually passing a lot of those little free libraries but only today saw this combined book and stick library.

Back on more local patrol with the hooligans. #dogsofmastodon


After a rough day yesterday I am on my way to recovery. Big relief for all of us. Summer knows I'm well enough that she can play lap dog again.
Taking it easy today but happy to be headed the right direction.
Summer says it is a good morning Mastodon!
