Welcome to this week’s edition of the Co-Hosted Follow Up Friday Blog hop, the blog hop that let’s you wrap up your week and leads you right into the weekend.
My co-hostess this week is a repeat offender. I believe this is her third time hosting. She’s a great hostess to have on board and I love following her blog and all the adventures she has with her dog Gizmo. Her Travel Thursday posts are making me itch for a Florida vacation.
Please welcome Beth and Gizmo from Terrier Torrent. Welcome, welcome Beth and Gizmo thank you for co-hosting this week!!
I Heel My Dog With a Chick Pea – Author’s Note
You guys are so kind! The more I work with the dogs the more I realize I like doing it. I’m just not very motivated nor do I have a lot of time.
I’m really proud of Delilah, she’s highly motivated by food and sometimes it’s quite difficult to keep her from chomping your fingers off. Many is the time I’ve pulled my hand away because she’s gotten more than the treat.
As Donna mentioned in the comments, when you have Labs you can train with lesser food values as sometimes the higher values result in bloody appendages.
Super Snow Sunday – Author’s Note
Last week’s predicted snow was a bust, but I don’t think we’re getting off so easy this week. Snow is coming and it’s supposed to be another one of those Super Storms.
Currently they are predicting one to two FEET.
Wish us luck. 🙂
Holler Holler for a Collar – Author’s Note
Indoor collars are certainly a personal preference. I like having them on as an extra precaution. I also know my dogs and their activity schedules and feel very comfortable with them wearing them. I’d also note that these collars are not tight at all, so there is no chance of them cutting into Sampson or Delilah.
Wordless Wednesday – Update
I am LOVING this Wordless Wednesday caption the photo! You guys are all so creative, I giggle as I read them
I actually had two captions.
1) Yes I actually am a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
2) Is this outfit okay for Jetty’s Baaa Mitzvah?
This ‘N That Thursday – Author’s Note
I hope the Trio Animal Foundation keeps us updated with Valentine’s progress, I love stories with happy endings.
I laughed myself silly typing that Knock Knock story. The trouble with writing for funny, is just because I find something funny, doesn’t mean you will. And it’s not always easy to convey tone in the written form.
I have to tell you, Frankie Furter’s comment was so stinking funny, I had to laugh. His poor MOM! I wouldn’t have a cat after that either!!
That’s all I have for Follow-Up Friday, we are hunkering down in preparation of Blizzard Charlotte and Storm Nemo. If you are in their path, please be safe.
This is the Co-hosted Follow-Up Friday blog hop brought to you by Terrier Torrent and Heart Like a Dog. Follow-Up Friday:
Animalcouriers says
Good luck during the snow storm – it sounds serious!
Gizmo (@GizmoGeodog) says
Hi Jodi…After this weekend I think everyone in the NE will be ready for a Florida vacation…:Love the caption about Jetty’s Baaa Mitzvah 😀 Stay safe and warm during Nemo
2 brown dawgs says
Hope you don’t get shocked too badly. I am dreading the drive to work although it looks fairly bright out there right now. 🙂
Long Life Cats and Dogs says
The wolf in sheeps clothing is very funny. People are so clever
Hawk aka BrownDog says
Hi Y’all!
Hope y’all stay warm and safe. I slept through a day and night of heavy rain…only went out when the Human insisted. Ah well…we really, really needed the rain!
Did I tell you that my Human holds her palm flat like she’s feeding a treat to a horse when she rewards me. (‘course I weigh in at almost 100lbs, so maybe she thinks I’m a horse)
Yep, it’s difficult to make a comment or write a post and know how the reader will interpret it…especially since some of my readers are humans and little humans (kids).
Y’all come back now,
Hawk aka BrownDog
Oz the Terrier says
Hi pals! Great wrap-up. If you decide to run away to Florida for some sunshine, let me (and GIzmo) know! We will greet you with open paws. Have a GREAT weekend!
Donna says
Love your captions for Sampson. 🙂
Have fun shoveling snow. I know Leah at least is going to be very happy tomorrow morning. 🙂
Genevieve Petrillo says
Good luck in the snowstorm. I predict there will be some running and romping scheduled for you tonight or tomorrow. We’re supposed to get 12-18 inches. That means it will scare Cupcake. When it reaches 11 inches it will touch her belly and freak her out. I predict some shoveling scheduled for me tonight or tomorrow…..
Sue @ The Golden Life says
Stay safe and warm up there! Here in partly cloudy/partly sunny Greenville, SC, it’s about 45 degrees and still damp after yesterday’s rain. I’d rather have snow quite frankly. I’m looking forward to co-hosting with you next week, but I really need to get working on my post! Have a great weekend!
Peggy Frezon says
I love that picture!
We’re in the path of Storm Nemo but so far just a dusting. Maybe it’s supposed to pick up later.
jet says
Hey Sampson, Hey Delilah, Jetty here. Hi Miss Jodi.
Shhh… Mom’s at the biscuit earning place and taking a quick break to clear her head. She is guffawing (VBP) in her head so as not to get into Mischief! GREAT caption… If you don’t mind… we suggest 2 adjustments…
We think the caption would fit Little Miss Pink Petunia better, and therefore the proper reference would be to JJ’s Bat Mitzvah…!!!!! For my Bar Mitzvah, I would provide royal blue kippahs to go with my royal blue accessory line, which Mom says accents my manly man black fur handsomely!
I feel pretty special getting the FUF mention, whooooo hoooooo!
Stay warm and careful with the storm. Sending Jetty kisses and JJ hugs and belly rubs from Mom… xoxoxoxo
dogdaz says
I always thought it was a Bark Mitvah. He doesn’t look 13. 🙂 Great follow ups.
jan says
One to two feet of snow sounds like a serious disruption to lives. We hope you are not badly inconvenienced by it.
Rosemary says
Henri is a biter when it comes to getting treats too! What I learned to do is instead of having the treat in my fingers with my palm up, I turn it over so he can’t see it but he’ll smell and sniff it. He’s much more gentler that way.
Jen@MyBrownNewfies says
I’ve been thinking about you today! Hope you are all safe and sound snuggled by the fire! No walking the dogs in a blizzard!
Jessica says
I hope you guys do okay during the big snow. You’ll have to post some pictures of Samson and Delilah wading chest deep!
