Welcome to this week’s edition of Follow-Up Friday, the post where I highlight reader’s comments, answer questions and generally just wrap up my week.
You Make Me Smile – September 14, 2014
Nom, nom.
2 Brown Dawgs said, “Love the shiny spit on the kong…lol.”
LOL You can have it. This dog has a very, very wet mouth!! Even giving her a treat, you need a towel.
Chelsea Price said, “I ADORE this series. It’s so refreshing to read such positive and upbeat posts each week.”
Thank you, I’m so glad. My dogs bring me so much joy and I just want to share that with you all.
Curiosity…it’s Not Just For Cats
Lauranne said, “I was half waiting for the spray in the face photo!”
OMD could you imagine? She would have freaked out! I had watched the sprinkler as we approached and knew there was not a chance of that, unless she went around it, then all bets were off!
Two French Bulldogs said, “I bit that thing this morning. Not smart.”
OH NO! I hope you weren’t too traumatized.
Emma said, “We sit at the back door when we want to go play in the yard, but when we want to come back in, we just ring our dog doorbell and Mom comes running. Watching Mom come running is the best because she knows if she makes us wait, I will lay on that bell non stop until she comes!”
Emma, you always make me smile. You and your sisters are the main reason I do not have a doggie doorbell. LOL
DZ Dog says, “Dante likes to employ a very loud deep sigh….it means, “dang you guys are boring for making me wait.”
Ah, the sigh. Yes, Delilah does that occasionally too, and sometimes she uses a little “haaaarumpff,” it’s absolutely hysterical.
It’s Dog or Nothing said, “It’s really amazing how we’re able to communicate so effectively with our dogs. They really do have a way of telling us what they need/want. Mauja likes to whack me with her paw if I’m not paying enough attention to her.”
LOL they do have a way of communicating, don’t they?
You guys, how can you meet two men named Dick and not want to write a post about that?
Some dogs just have it. What can I say?
Emma said, “To revisit an old topic of yours…why you get so much spam… 
You know with that title the world wants to read whether we know the true meaning or not.”
Yes, that would certainly explain the porn spam. True story…when I first started blogging and knew nothing about plugins, I published a post that had the word ‘bush’ in it. You wouldn’t believe the porn spam I got on that post. It got to a point where I actually unpublished the post. Thankfully now I have that amazing spam filter and I don’t see any spam. At all.
Molly the Wally said, “LOL we were in the gutter for a moment with that title.”
LOL well I admit the title was designed for that purpose. 😉
SlimDoggy said, “Emma is right…you attract spam with those titles…but then again, you attract me, so what does that say about me??? ”
LOL it says a lot to me. 😉 Can’t wait to hang out with you!
Frankie and Ernie said, “THAT was an interesting walk…. It reminds me of the old … I’m Darrel and this is my Brother Darrel.”
That was exactly what I was thinking!!
Jan asked, “I am sure your neighbors–including the dicks–are grateful to have such a great politician such as Sampson to keep order in your neighborhood. Has he considered running for national office?”
He has not, he just can’t find a good handler. 😉
Two French Bulldogs said, “I stand around and wait for people to approach me. Mom said her heart breaks at my look when some buddy walks by and ignores me.”
I totally get that. It breaks my heart too when someone will not acknowledge him. But he just tries again the next time, he’s good like that.
Update on Leroy
The Go Fund Me page is up. I want to thank all of you who have contributed to Leroy’s Fund and have shared his story. I know having funds to help defer the costs of his care is a great relief to Jen and her family. Please know, if you shared Leroy’s story, you have helped. If you donated, no matter how much you have helped.
Leroy is still retaining fluid and is scheduled for a scope today, hopefully that will give them the answers they need to help Leroy recover.
Just a reminder if you’d like to share his Go Fund Me page, you can find it HERE. And if you want to stop by and let Jen know you’re thinking of her, her Facebook page is HERE.
The thing I love best about this blogging community is the community. You guys are the absolute best and that always shines through, especially when one of our own needs you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Just left a “note” on Jen’s FB page. I know how she feels about asking for help — I’m the same way. My Dad always said “if you want something done right, do it yourself” and I went through my entire professional life with that attitude. No wonder I was so stressed-out half the time! Only in these last few years have I learned to ask for help when I feel overwhelmed.
We are laughing at the bush post. Have a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly
You know I was under the impression that we were all friends because we know dogs and cats are the most amazing thing on earth. Turns out I was wrong. The reason we all get along is because posts about Dicks and Bushes make us titter like small children.
And yes, I am congratulation myself on getting Dick, Bush and Tit-ter in a completely innocent sentence – my work here is done!!
I’m impressed with your innocent sentence!
I don’t visit as often as I should so I didn’t contribute to the go fund me page but now I will

You humans and your dirty minds. Can you imagine if humans could lick their privates like animals…nothing would get done in your world! We love your post titles and hope you never change. We know it is never what we expect! Remember SPAM is just plain a bad thing be it in a can or online! Happy Friday!
All I can say is you crack me up, everyday!
Great follow up and praying for Leroy!
Oh my dawg some of those comments are so funny
Lily & Edward
I can just picture Emma and the doorbell. Our dogs just kind of paw at the door…..and they can keep it up for a while if I don’t get right there. That annoys me enough, I can’t imagine a doorbell, so we’ll never get one either!
LOL Storm and Delilah are the same. If Storm sees food, it is like a spit faucet was turned on.
I was out of town when I heard about Leroy. I see he is home, which is wonderful.
