Pheebs!!!!

I am sorry to report that we are still no closer to getting a dog of our own.

This may be one of the main reasons why:

Braeya is exceedingly curious about Phoebe...as long as Phoebe is blind to her. Have you ever tried to get a dog to be blind to a cat? Yeah, it doesn't work out so well.

But despite the resident fur-baby's distaste for dogs, leading us to NOT own one ourselves, we continue to enjoy visits with Miss Phoebe, who is just about the best dog on the planet, I'm totally convinced. She came to hang out with me a week ago today, and it was a joy to have her for a few hours.

My main agenda on Monday was to recover from a weekend of speaking, so I had nothing but time to play with this cutie.

I think she missed me:

So many kisses.

We took a walk...and she managed to wait until we were RELATIVELY close to a trash can before she pooped.

We went to visit Ryan at work:

And despite it being OCTOBER, we were able to go for a walk in SHORTS!!!

{Just like a kid - she veered right into the water trail and walked through it.}

I think she was so tuckered after her walks, that she pretty much just wanted to cuddle the rest of the night.

Okay by me!!!

What a sweet girl. She is definitely a blessing to us!! {Braeya has asked to be excluded from that last statement.}
