Getting My Dog Fix On

This post is for my dog-loving blogging buddies 🙂

It is getting close to the one year anniversary of when we lost our beloved Mike the Miniature Schnauzer. We don’t have any immediately plans to get another dog in the near future (we want to keep being able to travel on a whim right now) BUT we are enjoying other peoples’ dogs!

A couple days ago we went over our friends house for dinner and got to enjoy their 3 days and 2 visiting dogs. Especially Olso the sweetest little doodle (not sure what kind of doodle mix) who took to me and made me his own for the evening:

What a cutie pie! I kept kissing on him all evening, I was in love! He didn’t want to get down from my lap and would growl at the other dogs when they got near me!

Here are photos of the rest of the dogs:

In the photo above, Oslo is asking to be put back on my lap and not have to mingle with the other dogs. I wanted to sneak Oslo into my tote bag and take him home with me!

In addition to visiting with friends’ dogs, I appreciate all the nice people I meet on my daily walks who are walking their dogs and let me pet them! (The dogs I should clarify, I am not walking around trying to pet people – ha!)

  2. You’d be welcome to pet my two, they would both lean in and close their eyes and groan in bliss. Plus they have the softest, silkiest ears in creation, just asking to be petted. Thankfully they are both too large for tote-jacking…

  3. That looks like a wonderful and fun collection of dogs, and Oslo looks like the sweetest! He looks a lot like our neighbor’s dog Charlie 🙂 So glad you were able to get your dog fix!

  5. looks like you made a friend with Oslo – and ahhhh – so nice to see your friends well groomed doggies (and laughing at the line about not petting people – haha) and when I was house sitting with my mother in January – I helped walk the dog and met so many other doggies on our walks – it really was fun!

  7. LOL. Petting people is generally frowned upon, unless you know them well. Thanks for the smile, Tierney. I’m sorry you had to leave Oslo behind. What a sweetie. He clearly saw the dog-lover in you.

    My son has moved home for a time with his pooch, a German/Husky mix. He’s so lovable, loyal, and sweet. I’m fond of all animals, but growing up in apartments, we generally had cats. I love them all.
