Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
AWWWWW Addy, thank you so much for lighting a candle for Buddy. :p
I loved your hubby's reply about Koko never barking. He loves his mama. :p:p:p:p
Feel better Sweetie,
I feel guilty because it was 89 degrees here today and you're freezing your tush off! So not fair!:eek::eek::eek:
Kisses to Koko Puff
Buddy's 12th birthday is Feb. 19.
Zoe flew to the bridge to meet the others Feb. 22
We'll get through this together.
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Oh poor addy. This is one nasty bug alright. You take care of yourself. It settled in my chest and ear and caused all sorts of havoc. So hope yours doesn't migrate around.
I know what you mean bitterly cold here too. Sigh.
The perfect valentine. Soup and hot beverage. ( good for throat and mucus). A nice back rub or foot massage. Sigh now that is love. Rofl.
Oh wow Koko is nut for mommy. And knows it is the weekend too! Smart boy.
You take care of yourself!
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
I've blanked the exact date of her death from my mind. I just know it is sometime between the 21-24 of February. The date caused so much pain, I remember the time and every detail, just get fuzzy in the exact date as it was the middle of the night.
I went to light a candle for Scout and thought about Buddy too.:)
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Squirt's birthday will be on the 25th of this month. She would have been 17.
I will never be whole again.
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Oh Leslie, I feel the same way. Some part of me died with Zoe and it is not coming back ever. Maybe that is ok, though.
Koko keeps me busy and he is endearing. I am thankful to have my boy. Now that it is light out when I come home, he wants walkies.
Freezing cold, ice on the road but off we go for a quick walk up to the corner and back, keeps him happy.
I have noticed since I speak to him all the time, he has learned many news words.:D I can say whole sentences and he knows which words to pick out. Who knew?
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Well he is a very smart boy. :)
Molly picks words out of sentences too. She does tend to pick and choose the ones she likes best though and tends to ignore the ones she doesn't want to hear. ROFL!
hugs
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
He is smarter than I ever gave him credit for as he lived in the shadows of Zoe.
Last night the closest we got to a Bark Fest was a demure, soft whining, er, er ,er for his treats while ate my dinner. We continue potato as a treat because I swear he is addicted to them as was Zoe. I dont know why. It is a potato:rolleyes:
They both loved them:D:D:p
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Well when you want your potato, you must have your potato. LOL
Koko has sure come into his own personality wise. I think he didn't really have to do much with Zoe around, she said it was this way and he went along with it. Now he has had to find his voice (still working on that maybe) and with a louder voice comes a louder personality. Funny how that works.
I think he is pretty darn adorable.
love
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Dear Addy, I think I got your bug. Losing my voice. It was fun to read the posts about the stallions. Sometimes we just need to laugh at ourselves. Hope you start feeling better. This is a nasty bug.
Hugs Sonja and Angel Apollo
Re: Koko - Traveling Dog Around Town
Hi Addy!
I finally seem to have caught up on "life." Took me 40 years to do it, but I'm there now. :)
Ryan's wedding plans are progressing along. He and Ellen are handling almost all of it, but they did hire a planner to come in for this last 5-6 weeks and she will be there on the day of the wedding. I think that's great.
I've run into a glitch-getting my hair done. Here I've been growing it for a full year and now, since this falls on a holiday, I'm having great difficulty finding someone to make it look nice. Most shops are closed. In addition, I have to be fully dressed, ready for pictures by 10 AM. YIKES! I don't know what I'm going to do. I may wind up just going back to short hair. That would be a bummer, after all this time. :(
The alligators are not hanging around, for some reason. The family of sandhill cranes still comes around daily. :D The little baby is almost up to the shoulders of the parents.....but the feathers are still the baby feathers-not the gray adult ones. We do have a large population of very huge turtles around us. They love to sun themselves.
We head back to BB in just under 2 weeks. Looking forward to getting home. We're going to roll around in all the space we have there after being in this sardine can all winter. We're trying to work on our tans so we'll look like we've been here all winter.
I hope your cold and allergies are all gone. How is your Mom doing? Are you planning on listing the house this spring? Give Koko a big hug from us.
Miss you.
Love,
Sus
