    Dozer is a smart puppy! My boy Jackson is the same way out to do his business and he wants to come right back in.

    Dozer got in a spat with a raccoon at 3am in the morning last week. He ended up ripping the nail of a declaw and had to have the what was left removed. He is doing better now and no more cone of shame.

    One thing that has happened since - If I go out into the backyard where this all happened, he is at my side, as if he is protecting me from that mean raccoon. Just interesting, even when injured, he takes care of his momma. Smile

    Dozer enjoying his front flat area. He is so funny - behind him is a hill - he lays on his back and slides down the hill. Haven't been able to catch it on camera yet.

    It’s ok. You don’t have to. There is no time frame for grief.

    Silly Dozer - He has been sleeping under my desk while I work -

    Half on and half off his bed.

    Spookie is having a dental as I type. I’m a wreck. Kris is ok.

    How are you and Dozer?

    We are working on getting a new fence line to give him more run room off his pulley cable. As DH and I get older he has a tendency to wrap us up in it trying to play. DH rolled down the hill the other day when he caught his leg with Dozer's cable.

    During my work hours Dozer just chills under my desk or on my rebounder I put where he can get some sunshine in my sunroom office.

    Dozer is a doll!! None of our animals ever get on my rebounder. I was sure I would be fighting them for it b/c they think the yoga mat is for their comfort! My sister just got a rebounder last week and she has to kick her cats off it to use it.

    I finally gave up on the rebounder. I am having issues with my foot so I put his bed on top of it and let him lay on it.

    With all this "Stay at Home" stuff going on DH and I have been rototilling and working in the yard. Dozer is chilling right where DH just finished. We had lots of sun instead of rain last weekend. Now we are back to rain.

    These are my therapy dogs! Bella is almost 10, Gamble is 8 and her biological granddaughter, Mariah, is 1.5. We have always had goldens and they are especially comforting as we are confined to home during this virus issue. The love they provide is well worth the dog hair, which is both a fashion statement and condiment - LOL! I believe they truly understand that I have cancer and need extra love
