My good friend Judy knows how much I love animals. She emailed me a link to a fantastic video about a herd of white deer. I found it so interesting, I’d like to share it with you. I hope you find it as interesting as I do!
My neighbor gave me a kitten today, from the litter her cat had a few weeks ago. It is cute as a button! She gave me pick of the litter. It is a little orange tiger. I’m sure he will be a lot of fun to watch grow up. My neighbor gave me a starter kit of a litter box, litter box liners, kitty litter, pooper scooper, food & water dish and food enough to last me a few weeks. Wasn’t that nice of her? So now I have to think about whether or not to neuter and declaw him a little bit later in life. I’ve heard so many pros and cons to de-clawing, this will be a tough decision. I guess I’ll wait a bit and see if I can train him to claw at a scratching post or not.
Our keeshond Dutch is getting older now, and I can see his muzzle graying. He slows down quicker when we go for a long walk together, or when we play fetch. Boy does that dog love to play fetch! He doesn’t care if it’s a stick or a ball or a frisbee, he loves to play fetch! And he loves children, too. He will let them pet him, and tug on his fur and he’ll just lie there and take it. If it gets too bad he’ll get up and go hide under a bed somewhere. He’s never bit a soul in his life. But he’s a magnificent “watch dog” he will bark and growl at strangers until I tell him it’s ok! And the strangers ARE afraid of him because he looks so much like a wolf! They don’t know how gentle he really is, and that’s OK with me!
Lately I’ve been spending some time reading about health issues realted to his aging process. I want to make sure to keep him in the best possible health and make sure he lives a good long time! I’ve found a site called Petwave that has a lot of informative articles about Pet Health that I plan to spend a lot more time reading!
I love our keeshond Dutch. He’s been with us since he was a two month old puppy. We bought him from a breeder that showed keeshonden in another state and had to drive for four hours one way to go get him! We had bought a crate with us to make sure he stayed safe for the drive home. Well, we fell in love with him immediately, and he with us. He has been a good, faithful gentle dog. He is a well trained dog, we trained him really early. I love to see him do his little tricks like catching a frisbee and rolling over.
