Saying hi today ! Don’t know who’s home tomorrow ! Kate’s tackling pumpkin pie & hot rolls . I’m the stuffed turkey King with sweet potatoes & cranberry sauce ! New oven should make timing better ! Macy’s Parade followed by dog show tomorrow ! Dogs are excited with pending leftovers ! Then the big event . . . turkey sandwiches ! By next week , only the dogs will be excited about turkey ! Plan is to freeze some for a future date . . . but why ? . . . have 3 more turkeys in freezer !
Kidd's pure Cardigan ! Won his championship , several titles , & his human pack hearts ! At almost ten , set blazing path !
This Spring garden was a failure ! Extended heat spells & rain almost every day , stunted garden . Then I had to fight mice , chipmunks , & sparrows for produce ! Neighbor insisted on feeding sparrows all summer . This attracted vermin seeking spilt seeds .
First response was pinwheels , fake owls , sprays , netting , & pesticides . Nothing worked & neighbor kept feeding the sparrows . Then I realized , location , location , location ! If my garden was located on pavement with raised containers , dogs could run under tables & scare off critters ! Made pallets into tables & Copper approves !
Arwen , Pippin , & Iron Mike clearing the countryside of pumpkin thieves !
Clifford is a proud Cardigan ! He'd rather go to Holiday Inn for a few , than Trick or Treat !
If it’s white, say goodnight!
Back to back heat waves & rain almost every day , ruined my vegetable garden . Then neighbors feeding birds , drew hungry mice & chipmunks ! Next year will do better , with containers on tables over Cardigan runs .
Cardigans didn't do much better ! There were no emails of puppy interest this Summer . A few inquiries early Spring , not enough for Big Ears to plan Fall litters . Maybe if interest swells , we'll think about Spring/Summer litters ?
As head Cardigan gardener , Lil Copper has a lot of work , see the fox family moved away & the woodchucks moved back !

Every morning I can lie to the mirror " I'm still young ! " . Then I see a movie with my favorite star , " My God they look so old ! " . Then it happens to our pets ! Clifford's family was shocked , when they found puppy pictures !
