Dogs

Because we are suckers

05.29.08 | Comment?

We are now fostering a golden retriever/cocker spaniel mix named Samantha Jo.  That is a stupid name, so I have renamed her Jo Jo Peanut Butter Pants.  She is the sweetest little dog who has some unfortunate allergies that the medical folks at the Oregon Humane Society are trying to pin down.  Meanwhile, to get her away from the stress and sadness of the shelter and to help her heal so she can be adopted, we are housing her with our dogs.  She gets along great with all creatures, it seems, even Boris the Intense Lab, except when he’s being an asshole.  When he forgets that he has to be a jerk, they play well together.

Of course, not only do we have three dogs to deal with now, but Guest Dog is coming for a short stay today.  So four dogs and five cats (all of whom are wondering why the fuck the humans keep letting more dogs in the house) and two humans will fight for their share of resources, and since the little African Dwarf Frog died the other day, Jesús the Siamese Fighting Fish is all alone again, the only resident of the house insulated by a thin wall of acrylic from all the fur, the fur.
