Here's the gang from the hilltop hood greeting Freeway this morning! The Australian Shepherd's' live across the street and come by every morning and sit on the front porch waiting...and waiting...and waiting until I let Freeway out. They greet each other.......(The bigger dog to the right of Freeway is the daddy dog, Chaz.)
Doggy Style...while keeping a fine tuned eye on the surroundings....(The doggy by Freeway is the mom-Casey)
This is the puppy "Tracy" that was born right after we moved in.There were 8 puppies in the litter. They kept this little girl for their youngest son. Boy is she a cutie!!
Can you tell that Casey is relaxed?? A morning nap in 2 degrees. Poor Freeway on the other hand gets cold and picks her feet up if she's out too long!
There goes Tracy after Freeway (not shown to the left of the picture) Freeway's not too sure about Tracy, as the pup always wants to kiss her face, and jump all over her. Freeway shows teeth..."Grr..get away kid, I'm busy!" And Tracy does...for a minute. Just like a puppy with an attention span of a gnat!All of our doggy's wait patiently for the mailman, the trash man, and the UPS guy, each of which carries a big bag of cookies in their vehicles! It's pure joy when a delivery truck starts up the hill!! There is dancing in the street!! AND they follow the trucks from house to house!! It's a SMORGASBORD!!
That's why I love dogs....
Blessings~
What happy, lucky dogs!
ReplyDeleteWhen my son, dog and I moved back to my home town about 12 or so years ago, we moved in with my parents for a bit. My Lucy and my parents dog, Clara, would run the neighborhood daily (we were in the country, so they could do that). Clara would go into open garages and steal shoes. Then poor Lucy would take the shoe from her and end up getting the blame for stealing. Yep, good doggie times!
I'm glad they do get along well and also get along with the mailman and the ups driver. Where I live there is a leash law and no dogs are to run loose like that. Every now and then someone's dog gets loose but we know which neighbors they belong to so we take them home again. My sons and daughter with the big dogs are fortunate to have fenced in yards so the dogs can run and exercise. They all love getting together and playing too...just like a bunch of kids.
ReplyDeleteCan't even think about being without my fur babies....constant entertainment!!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures!
Enjoy....LindaMay
Such a sweet post! What a fun neighbourhood you live in with so many doggie friends for your Freeway to play with. How fabulous that your mailman, trashman, UPS guy are all dog lovers & carry cookies with them on their routes ♥ I love dogs too!

Ohh what a cute story. And a real one.
ReplyDeleteAnd glad you're still with internet and power, after the storm. :-)
Keep warm!
I guess a lot of us, have to heed that advice. 'Tis cold, in this neck of the woods too.
Lordy it looks frigid there! I think I'll stay in Florida if you don't mind. But the photos are gorgeous. So maybe I'll split the difference and swing by for a visit and some hot coffee.
ReplyDeleteWhen's good for you?
