Hidden puppy

Where did Stella go? She’s in and around the hosta plants. When she in her tunnels, she’s difficult to see.

Sometimes I think she’s coming out on the right, only to find her running past me on the left.

When she wants to hide, Stella is almost impossible to find.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

The first full day of summer

There are many benefits of getting up early. One is the beauty found at sunrise.

Another is enjoying it with my four-footed friend, Stella, as we work on housebreaking.

I celebrate the beauty of the morning and the fact that Stella is getting better at doing her business outside.

A good-puppy morning

Housebreaking a puppy isn’t easy. Stella is on her way to being a good house dog.

I’ll take anything that takes us closer to the time when I can trust her in the house. She’s well on her way, though I know today was a fluke, but I’ll take it.

A furry surprise package

This match was made in heaven, why else would I be disrupting my life again by housebreaking a puppy.

Stella seems a good fit, even though we’ve only been together one day.

My cat Barn-E loves to play with Stella. Car-E hissed at her and took a swipe at Stella’s nose. Eventually, I think they will co-exist with little problem, but for now, Stella is avoiding Car-E.

Stella’s adoption came through Saving Paws of Appleton. She needs some TLC and I think my 10 week old puppy will be a good addition to my furry family.

Pocket treasures

It’s time to wash winter coats and put them away for the season.

Before the coats go into the washer, pockets have to be searched and emptied.

A reminder of Sunny was found in all my winter coat pockets. Sunny is gone but never forgotten.

So what’s in your pocket? Dog or cat treats or cookies for your children?

If I carried cat treats, my feline pets wouldn’t leave me alone.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
