Hello Yvonne. Our dogs are Japanese Chin, which are known to be little “tricksters”. They’re also called “cat dogs”, since their personalities are a lot like cats. I don’t know what they’re thinking, but I’m pretty sure these two appreciate me more when I am not what they expect me to be! They get charged up when I do something they’re not used to! Perhaps they thrive more on the side of surprise and the unexpected!
Good to see you posting! Springtime is such a busy time, that I can’t seem to get to writing either.
Lori, it so enjoyed reading your comment about your little chins. They are adorable and fascinating little dogs. I always love seeing them included in your posts. I imagine you are knocking yourself out this spring as you mow, plant, and prune. I have not posted in well over a year that was anything of my own. I did share a post of my good blogging friend that he did for me about birds back in the winter.
Hi Yvonne, Muddy’s eyes show real love. I love the quote and it is good for any of us. But no problem for us, we love animals don’t we ! Have a nice week. Thoughts from France
take great care!

Hello, Chatou. Have not heard from you in a while and have wondered if you have been ok. Thank for commenting. Lovely to hear from you in France. Stay well. Yvonne
Now, that made me laugh. Then I started thinking about cats, and Dixie Rose in particular. I think the cat version would be,”Don’t be the person your cat knows that you are.”
Thanks for commenting, Linda. I am having a bit of a problem trying to figure out how the new WP format works. I have no idea how to post more than one pic and other aspects. It has really messed my limited ability to try to work out a post. I had a different pic in mind but I chose to use one of my own. Indeed, I think you are probably right about how a cat views its human. I think mine see me as the one who holds the key to their food and a soft warn spot to lay on. They march to the beat of their own drummer.
I am glad that you liked the quote. I think it is quite appropriate given the fact that our dogs seem to worship the ground we walk on or a semblance of that. Thanks for commenting, Colin.

It’s a great quote, sentiment, and advice.
Yes sir, if only we could measure up to what our dogs think of us but I am afraid that many of us fall short.
