Zoey loves to sleep on the bed with me. She doesn’t always stay on the bed all night. She moves around at times, looking for a more comfortable position.
I have photos of both of them sleeping on the bed; but this one of Zoey is by far my favorite. So sweet, so innocent and trusting, so angelic. 😇 Certainly “awww worthy” for the weekly Awww Monday blog hop!
Have a great day and a great week everyone! Zen and Zoey will probably be keeping me busy with their antics both inside the house and out in the back yard all. week. long.
It’s nothing to worry about. My little girl is being spayed today, three months, two weeks, and one day before her second birthday.
My Wild Child
I have absolute, complete faith in her doctor and I know she will come through the surgery with flying colors.
And to make sure she heals completely and properly, big brother Zen will be spending these next two weeks at his Grandpa Chuck’s house. Not because he would ever do anything to harm his little sister, but because Zoey is a little instigator. And she will need to rest and stay calm for these two weeks.
My Soul Dog in Training
I will miss my big boy so much! This is the first time he’ll be away from home for more than a day since hubby was admitted to the hospital (for the last time) in July of 2022. Zen has been “there” for me through the roughest months of 2022 and beyond. He has truly been my soul dog in training – with Ducky as his spirit guide – helping me to heal, letting me cry into his furry, wavy, Golden locks, and giving me the best human-like hugs.
But while I’ll be missing him – and Zoey will, too – this will be an excellent opportunity for Zoey and I to work on our bond. She’s going to have to be calm and not take running leaps onto furniture, not run around the yard like a lunatic, not do her”acrobatic” leaps to catch her ball; and I’m sure there will be other restrictions. So, I’m going to start her with some of Ducky’s food puzzles, and some games of easy tug of war, and some easy scent work games. And hopefully start working on her confidence so we can ease her separation anxiety with some games.
Zoey came into her first season some time yesterday; so technically speaking she’s not a “baby” any more. But she will always be MY baby. She was feeling a bit tired this morning, so she snuggled up to me while I drank my first cup of coffee.
🐾💜 Mama’s Snuggle Puppy 💜🐾
Of course Zen’s butt had to photobomb the sweetness, but that’s okay. 💚🐾
Zen is scheduled for his neuter surgery (and a dental cleaning) on Wednesday, so Zoey will be spending his week-long recuperation period at their Grandpa’s house. I am sooooo going to miss seeing these snuggle sessions!! 🥲
While I was watching the Z Kids sleep a few minutes ago, Englebert Humperdinck’s song “After the Lovin'” popped into my head. Probably because, as I said to my brother, these two have their very own mutual adoration society going on.
If these two photos don’t make you go “Awwwwww”, I’d have to think either you’re blind or you have a cold heart.
Just like her older brother, Angel Bogie, Zoey must have her morning snuggles with me. 💞🦮🐾
Fast asleep 💜🐾😍
Funny to me is that as a rule of paw, the male Goldens are more likely to be the “needy”, cuddly pups than the females. Well, I never did like living by “rules” anyway. In this house, the roles are reversed…..
Zen is more like Ducky in the snuggles department: when and how HE wants them. Zoey is just like older brother, Angel Bogie: SHE must have the morning snuggles on the couch (or in the recliner). Her brother, and sister Ducky, knew I would need another snuggle buddy and that little Zoey would be perfect in that role. 🥰
So, on to the second reason for this particular Awww Mondays blog post…
🦮My Beautiful Angel Boy Bogie🦮
HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY In Heaven my Beautiful Bogie Boy!! Mama will always miss you until we’re all reunited. And I will always love you.
Hi Everyone! Mama said I could paw today’s Awww Mondays blog hop post. Aren’t I a handsome pup? Mama says I’m as handsome as my angel brothers Radar and Bogie. 😇🐶😇🐶
I’m proud of myself cuz I climbed on to Mama’s chair instead of pestering her like I usually do when she sits on the sofa to check her emails in the morning. 🤣🐶
That’s it for me today. Mama and I hope all our family and friends have a great Monday!
in my heart 4ever
