my dog and cats take up a large portion of my heart. in fact so much so that i feel guilty sometimes when i get short with them for being, well, them! the post with the chair shows cooper (or more often "coop") the dog. he's a beagle crossed with a red tick. all hound. but pretty much the best hound i've ever come across. he's an interesting little dude. looks like he should have had longer legs. my manfriend, R, takes him hunting (yes he does that and i'm okay with it) and coop is an excellent deer runner. even for people other than R. here's an updated shot of our lil man. he enjoys having his hip/bum scratched.
the first critter "we" had, well, that i acquired was summer our little mini calico. you might remember her form the chair post too. she is a bit of a princess and makes sure everyone knows it. but super soft and loves to cuddle. and boxes. she loves to sleep in boxes. obviously.
the middle child is trixie. i've mentioned her before. she's my soulmate. she picked me as her own and i couldn't do anything about it. she is an amazing cat, so friendly and kind of dog-like. as far as cats go? we definitely won the lottery! she is a diluted calico, so white, grey and peach where as summer is white, black and orange. and she is a happy cat.
we are tentatively considering adding a puppy - a girl - to this mix later this year. a black lab. the parents are smaller in stature as neither of us want a giant lumbering lab, sweet natured and beautiful. and of course being a lab she would be trained to retrieve. remember, hunter manfriend, our dogs are dual purpose. that being said we wouldn't get rid of her if she couldn't retrieve.
not a terribly interesting blog post today but it's something and it has photos once again. we're a little family and more furry than anything else but we're happy and get along just fine. next post? manfriend?....
