Welcome to this week’s edition of Follow-Up Friday, the blog hop that let’s you wrap up your week and leads you right into the weekend.
Joining me this week as co-hostess is the amazing Pup Fan from I Still Want More Puppies. Remember the awesome discussion on Wednesday? That was because of her. She’s an incredible woman, fur mom to Bella and Tavish, Queen of the Parodies and did I mention the best thing? She’s my friend.
Many thanks to Pup Fan for co-hosting with me this week.
JoAnn asked, “Are they enjoying their stay at the ranch? did they roll in poop yet?”
Yes we are enjoying our stay at the ranch. It’s a really beautiful property and I hope to do an entire post about the farm. The dogs had a great time and Sampson even got fairly close to a Llama! And as of the writing of this post, no poop rolling.
Hello Llama, my name is Stone, Sampson Stone.

LOL and EWWWW but I suspect given the chance, Delilah would feel the same way!
When the Universe Smacks You Upside Your Head
Caren Gittleman said, “I think we ALL can use a good “slapping” every now and then and it is amazing how it is taken care of FOR us.”
Amen sister. I’m not saying I don’t deserve a good smack upside my head. 🙂 It was just what I needed.
Jen said, “I’m always getting slapped upside my head by the universe and sometimes it slaps my ass too.”
I think I was getting an ass slapping too!
Jessica said, “I think I missed where you are taking this trip?”
We are nestled in the mountains of Eastern Tennessee on a Llama farm!
Tuesday my sweet, beautiful boy turned nine. We celebrated his birthday by taking a nice long walk around the llama farm. Thank you all for the birthday wishes I think he enjoyed his day.
Houndstooth said, “It’s funny how the right dog can bring about so many changes in our lives and lead us to where we need to go.”
I agree. It’s amazing how one dog can make such a positive change.
This post generated a LOT of discussion, which I think is a very good thing. I honestly think I could write many more posts about this topic. For the most part we all agree, AB is an asshat. Thank you Jodi Chick for spelling it out.
Because it was a very deep and intense subject, I have responded to all the comments directly on the post.
Here’s the thing, we’ve all made mistakes. As human beings, as parents and as dog parents. The key is to learn from our mistakes and not repeat them. Had the writer of the post confessed she was in over her head and had remorse for how her dog was being neglected, it would have been an entirely different post. One does not neglect their dog and then brag about it. Not it Blogville.
Well our time here is coming to an end. Tomorrow morning we pack up and start the long drive home. It’s been a very relaxing week. I didn’t get to do as much hiking as I would have liked but it was wonderful just being out on the porch enjoying nature.
Caren Gittleman said, “there is something about llamas that just makes me laugh. ” Could it be there smiles Caren?
SlimDoggy asked, “Did she get in the water? ”
No, we wouldn’t let her. We are afraid once she gets in, we won’t get her out.
2 Brown Dawgs said, “Even away from home on vacation you have my back.” and “maybe the wonderful time starts around 4pm (judging from some FB pictures)”
We may not always see eye to eye on certain subjects, but I will always have your back. 🙂 And yes, 4:00 is the magic hour for me!
Pamela asked, “Will he be smuggling a llama into his luggage? ”
Absolutely not! I have my hands full with the two dogs. Although they might come in useful with the lawn. hehe
Jan K said, “That looks like such a wonderful place to relax. Even on a rainy day, sitting on the porch sounds idyllic. Doesn’t hurt to have a hot tub too!”
It is a wonderful place and if any of you are interested (before I get my post up) drop me a line and I’ll get you the contact information.
That’s it for me, have a great weekend!
