The pup has been playing with the young cats a lot. They tussle and have great fun. Pup has started to race by them and bump them with her shoulder to try to get them off their feet. She tried it this morning with old dog, who is very short but long and stocky (picture a shepherd/rottie on stumps, weighing about 60 pounds). Pup bounced off old dog's shoulder and went rolling down the deck steps. She popped back up looking very perplexed.
Thanks for this!

My nephew's latest animal is a goat. The goat goes on walks with him and his dog, rides in the truck with them, sleeps on his lap. The latest pictures of Boba (as in Fett) show him with a tennis ball stuck on each horn because in playing with the dog, he has caught the dog a couple of times. Safety first. LOL! Tonight my nephew posted that Boba somehow broke his leg. No telling how -- probably jumped off the picnic table and landed wrong or got kicked by the cow that it likes to play with. So it now has a cast. Yes, my nephew lives out in the country and has a menagerie of cows, chickens, dogs, cats, goats, guinea fowl, etc. His dog has its own Facebook page.

My nephew needs a wife and kids (actual kids, not the furry baby goat kind). LOL!!
Thanks for this!

I have 3 adorable dogs! One is sleeping next to me now. Well, not mine, but they belong to the family. So technically mine. They are so cute! But the puppy, the one next to me, is so full of it.

I don't know what it is about pets that can calm people down. Maybe it's because the actually listen. They always seem to know something is wrong, cat, dog, or any pet. They are so wonderful.
Even my fish and tiny frog.

Supposedly owning an animal lowers your blood pressure.

I am pretty sure junior cat did not get that memo.

My cat is pretty mellow. The younger dog on the other hand....
And mine did not get the part about knowing when someone is upset - they are more like - "Hey this being upset thing is not going to interfere with dinner, or snacks, or playtime is it? Because that won't work for us"

Oh same old same old. Just being dramatic. Being dramatic in a silly way helps me chill out when he does something that upsets me....

Wow. I just looked at t's profile on psychologytoday.com because I haven't in awhile and see that she changed it back in March. It has a whole paragraph now that talks about "My clients leave with a strong understanding of themselves...." It's never said anything at all about in the past 4+ years anyway.

What?! She has clients who can actually leave? It's possible?

At least they are upfront, direct, and honest about their needs. It's almost like they've been to therapy!

It sucks so bad when after a period of extreme selfishness you see what you should have seen then and there's no do-overs.

I think that is the sort of thing you sort of have to accept that you can learn from and move on with info that will help in the future.

If it helps, I believe that most of the time, people are doing the best they can at any given time even if in hindsight things seem obvious.

I can agree to some extent. Our dogs are so spoiled, they don't even know they're dog!

Morning couch!

I hope your session is going well this morning DF.

Well I woke up early this morning from a nightmare that left me breathless. This one's going to haunt me for awhile. I'd have to put a trigger warning around the whole thing so I won't share it here. But it was awful. The only 'good' things about it if there can be anything good are that 1) I have no idea who the little boy is in the dream and 2) it was JUST A DREAM. I know my t always says there's no such thing as "just" a dream but I insist upon making this one just that.

Have a good day, couchies. (or night, depending on where you are!)
