(129) Cousogs(?) or Hangin with My Pal





We’re having another beautiful day in Paradise and so I was thinking what better thing to do today than check out the garage sales. BORING! Beeks went with me and we paraded around town but didn’t find anything exciting or otherwise so we headed home. We didn’t even get an ice cream cone (too early and we didn’t earn one either). Since it was such a nice day I had the car windows rolled down and the air conditioning off. Beeks loved sticking his head out the window. We passed 5 or 6 dogs with their walking partners and guess what Beeks did? Wrong! He looked but he didn’t bark or growl at them! I kept praising him and told him how proud of him I was. I wonder if it has something to do with the windows being rolled down? Maybe the reason that he reacts so strongly has something to do with him being behind a barrier? Strange indeed.

J& J Barker Reports: They have made it to Seattle where JesseJames met Squiggles the Italian Greyhound for the first time. If you remember, Squiggles is the IG that Juli’s son and girlfriend adopted a few months ago. Squiggles was a rescue with many issues so we were anxious to see how he would react to Juli’s dog, JesseJames. As you can see by the pictures, they met and got along great. J & J report that on the "Cousogs" first day together and the Meet and Greet was a great success. They may have even snuggled some.

On the Home Front… Brad came home early from work today to work in the yard. We are looking forward to a fun filled weekend. Since it is a three day weekend, we will be watching a lot of movies during the evening hours and enjoying the screened in porch during the day after long dog walks. Max and Beeks have already put their votes in. We’ll eat lunch and dinner on the porch where the cool breezes flow. Corn, beans, and tomatoes are on the menu. Oh,and sweet potato treats too.
