Sarah says to post something fun, while she’s off doing necessary and unfun appointments. I’m not sure about fun, but shocking?

This is the most recent four-footed addition to the family, Hyrokken. She’s an in-family rescue who joined us the end of January, my uncle’s dog (his health is declining), a five-year-old ninety-five pound red and white Malamute, who is exactly as shocking as she looks when she hops up to look in the window in the dusk.
She was raised by cats, and is bullyable by cats. Watching her cringe away from five pounds of hissing black Gertrude will always be funny.
So chaos increases here, as do dog food bills. How are your fuzzy four-footed family members this fine spring day?
My late Beagle Lilly is with Mom now. [Sad]

Maximum Maxwell the monster poodle roared at the cops today. ~:D
They were soliciting donations at the local Tim Horton’s, Max took exception to them being close to the truck. Made it tough to understand what I was donating five bucks to, having a monster turning inside out in the back seat…

The dry spring has helped with the external parasite situation that we always face, but we’re thankful for the rain last week and a bit last night as well.

Being bullied by cats reminds me of an Akita I once knew. Duke was scared of little dogs when he was walked in town until he was two or so. Then he realized he was ninety-five pound grown dog.

In Longview paper deliverer had a large Golden Retriever that made the rounds with him off leash. Dog used harass and chase the cats encountered. Then dog met Yellar. Big yellow long haired 25# tabby, male (not fat, he had to have maine coon or bobcat in him). Dog came up to the front door planter Yellar like to sun bake in the mornings. Last we saw of cat and dog, until Yellar came home, was dog running with cat on digging in on dog’s back. Thereafter, dog waited across the street while our paper was delivered.

Did folks see the Substack post of “Emotions people feel, but can’t explain”?
