Buddy pays another visit
You’ve met Buddy before in previous posts. He’s a Homeward Bound alumnus who comes to stay with me and Scrappy every now and then. Well, with me, Scrappy, and whichever random dogs happen to be here. That can be an unsettling proposition for a dog that lacks confidence. But Buddy has come a long way since he was adopted by Mary and Drew. This time it was the lovely and talented Daisy with whom Buddy was forced to share living quarters. Scrappy played chaperone the entire time. I had to keep Daisy and Buddy separated for the first couple days…

Tucker aka Fido comes for a visit
Tucker (Fido when he was at Homeward Bound) arrived for a short stay today. He appeared in a post here and here. Scrappy and Tucker had a rough and tumble play session despite the size discrepancy. I think Scrap still finds Tucker a bit intimidating.

Teddy’s style evolves
I’ve written about Teddy a few times, most recently here where I discuss how I knew he was ready to go home. Aside from his questionable behavior when he arrived at Homeward Bound teddy is also known for the various looks he sported along the way. When Teddy arrived his coat was grown out … and then some. To be honest, I suffered a flashback to the 1970s when I had a scruffier appearance of my own. Teddy insisted that he looks different because he marches to a different drummer. I responded, “Too bad, dude, we have to take care of…
Success
It’s gratifying to be part of success even if it’s a small part. A lot of parts went into Lucy and Lilly’s success story which you can read about in Gardens for Goldens here and here. Many of you already follow Ogee so are happily familiar with her beautiful photos and writing. For those that don’t, click the links. It’s worth the trip. I was able to give Lucy and Lilly a place to stay while we assessed them and started the process to find them a new home. They are not relate despite their similar appearance. That’s Lilly on…
Charley for a Day
Nope, not a new TV show. Charley is a Homeward Bound alumnus, and he stayed with me for a while while we weaned him off Prozac. I wrote a little about him in this post. He’s back for a short visit while his Mom and Dad celebrate their 33rd wedding anniversary. He’ll be going home tomorrow but it’s great to see him again if only for a short time. Scrappy’s not playing with Charlie — that’s nothing new. But at least he isn’t all pouty and moping around this time.

Slow day
I never left home yesterday (Saturday), mostly because I was working on a leg injury. I also did some chores outside as much as I could. The late afternoon produced some good photography light so I decided to test some lenses to determine which get sold and which get to stay. That’s my excuse for having only Scrappy shots to post. This is Scrap giving me “the look”. You might think he’s expressing his impatience at posing for so many pictures. And the truth is he isn’t always cooperative. But he’s learning that he gets treats when he poses properly…
