You don’t need that trackpad, do you mom?

Sorry you lost your furbaby, but 18 years is a great run!

I’ve been through like five of those duck toys. My Brittany looooooved them so much when he was a puppy, especially tearing their feet off and pulling out all the stuffing.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who sends her dogs to daycare — aka playtime at a huge dog park with the greatest dogwalker ever — for cleaning and quiet time. It’s a win-win! I used to do it more when I just had one pup, but two starts to get expensive.

That’s so awesome.

Haven’t made it into the Enchantments proper but have totally encountered mountain goats around Colchuck Lake. This here is Fred, who was very close by but seemed chill. (I still was nervous since someone was killed one year at Hurricane Ridge by a mountain goat.)

Well, this worked out well because I occasionally see a tolling retriever around my neighborhood and could not remember what the breed was called. My husband thought it was a Brittany mix. They do look a lot alike!

Awww, they match! So cute!

Mine was the puppy from hell and now is the sweetest, coolest dog. He is extremely popular at the dog park.

So pretty. Does your cutie go crazy for decaying leaves? Our walks this fall have been taking twice as long because there are so many good smells.

That is a great dog name! Do you always say it formally or do you call her DVF?

Gingers forever!

Awww, goldies love kittehs!

That’s one pretty kitty!

Are they actual siblings? Their coloring is so cute and complementary. Love it!

SNUGGLEZZZZZZZ!

It is! People often think he’s got a bit of chow chow in him because he’s got a spotted tongue but he’s pure golden.

I’d convinced my husband to get a second dog and had been checking the rescue sites daily. A friend and fellow dog lover had been considering getting a second dog as well and came across a listing for a 7-month-old Brittany on Craigslist. Her husband said no way so she sent it to me. I knew the second I saw him that I…

In that case, one more! Mr. Handsome was besties with both of our cats, who are no longer with us (it’s OK, they were really old!). Dog and Fat Kitty would explore the backyard together and snuggle on the sofa for hours.

For you: He briefly abandoned his stuffed lovie to play with his kitty.
