A Day in the Life ---- Featuring Quincy and Gracie

Our day usually begins with a "petite promenade."  New routes are always met with enthusiasm because to a hound dog "sniffing" is a calling and something they are truly passionate about.

Next on the agenda is some playtime which includes a little "wrestling" on the bed. 

Since Quincy is approaching his "golden years", a nap is usually a welcome break from his more lively little sister.

While Quincy naps,  Gracie begins the daily "cleansing" of the backyard, alley, and deck.  Her belief is that a squirrel free yard is a good yard. Many hours are spent on "squirrel patrol."

No stone goes un-turned in the quest.

Sometimes the "watch" continues indoors. After all it is the "dog days" of summer!

Occasionally the stress of keeping a squirrel free environment is overwhelming,

even for the most dedicated!

At the end of a long day, nothing is better than cuddle time for the two that we sometimes refer to

as "the chuckle heads."

It's been said that dog is man's best friend. I have heard it said that the best way to test this theory is to lock both your spouse and your dog in the trunk of your car, drive around for an hour, and then see who is the happiest to see you when you open the trunk:)

Will Rogers, humorist and actor, once  said, " If there are no dogs in Heaven  then when I die I want to go where they went."  Me too !!

That's it for now.
