It is all about the look, she would look at you with such a look of total amazement that you really thought she would stay put and not go into the water. This was a dog that the breeder gave up on and unwillingly let me have her because she was a dog who simply had a mind of her own. During shows, she would suddenly decide she had enough and would calmy sit and refuse to move .. or .. she would walk off the show ring floor back to her crate.

She became my soulmate, my best friend, I bonded with this dog like there was no tomorrow. I still mourn her loss to this day.. but her spirit, her devotion, and unfaltering caring will never leave me. She taught me so many “life” lessons.

I spent a good part of my morning yesterday with whippets A totally different breed, they were in their home, I was a guest. Since acquiring Quincy last year, I have learned to live with a feline(s) in my life. Not the same at all. Now of course he has a “sister” Quinn. Interacting with a cat .. is not.. like living with a dog, or vice versa.

In life, we are constantly on a journey of discovery… what I have learned and continue to experience, is…

If we are content with the status quo, our progress will stop. In PL, we suggest, to always seek for ways to improve, to continue to move forward, one step at a time.

Many fellow bloggers always include their “furry” family/friends in their blogs.. Love it!!!

Enjoy your Saturday everyone.

Everything in life happens for a reason.

There need not be reason or rhyme, it simply IS.

I held a two week old puppy in my arms yesterday… what a sweet bundle of love.

Good Morning 6.26.17

vwlro 6.17

Good morning, this is our whippet trying to sleep last night, doesn’t matter its summer, and hot, he likes to be covered. Usually his head is snuggled into his chest or he is on his back, but for some reason last night, he was sleeping with his head on the arm of the chair. For those of us with a whippet or grey *Greyhound” even though we see their often, odd way of sprawling out, it never ceases to amuse or endear them Their ability to contort their length into weird upside down and twisted posses, and then fall asleep that way, is really amazing.

They can in a split second, wake and jump up from the most awkward of positions to a graceful and show-stopping pose. Why, because he can, he doesn’t think about it, he just does it.

Furniture has to be covered, he owns every chair in the place. Almost .. Canaille (our PWD) has hers, but that doesn’t stop him from trying to horn in. Extra loads of laundry are done, sheets, towels, and his blankies. Oh dear, does he sound spoiled…. yes…. I guess they both are.

All this to say, dogs, cats, pets of any kind, are usually accepted for who they are, we can justify almost anything they do, or get up to, and we deal with it. Accidents happen, we deal with it. As they age, we learn to live with an aging pet, who after years of unconditional love (on their part) and ours, we adjust and walk the path with them. We do all this without questioning why, they don’t interact with us like another human would, so our compassion, and love seems to just happen. Another human has a voice and thoughts, that will come out and create a different “reaction” from us.

Throw a penny into a quiet pond, it will sink or skip depending on how you do it, then it will fall into the pond and become one with the pond. We see gentle ripples, or if we threw the penny, it might make a small splash. If we throw a rock, we will get a different effect. Either way, once we “action” into, or at the pond, the “reaction” happens, then the pond returns to the state it was in prior to our interaction with it.

When we live in Perfect Liberty, we are like the pond, we hum with activity of our own, life flows. When something/someone interacts with us, how they interact, will dictate what our response will be. We acknowledge the activity, let it go, and return to our
centre” our “core”PW

Living in a state of unconditional love.. is a work in progress, that we must always strive to achieve, if we are to achieve “World Peace”

roses 6. 2017

Life happens. The roses are in bloom now, tomorrow or another day, they will relinquish their time in the spotlight, to allow the nourishment to feed the roots, so they can return again. Life is a series of cycles. Acknowledge and appreciate every day. Life is good.

There is Joy in simplicity!

Wordless Wednesday – What?

We take pictures, that is what we do.. those of us with a camera at the end of our arms/fingers, we take pictures, some we use right away, some get filed away till we discover them another day. Well this is Wordless Wednesday, and I thought, let’s have a look at previous files/folders. There are several whippet owners out there, that have recently hooked up to my blog. I thought I’d share a picture of our boy. This is one that I couldn’t remember when I looked at the small previews. I uploaded and there was the picture. While I was looking at the messy bed (he is great at messing the bed, our own whirling dervish) I saw this head behind him. I knew it wasn’t me, I took the picture. I was I admit stumped for a second or two, wondering who was in the bed.

My hair is no longer that long, or black. that did look like my pillow and it is where I would be.. What was going on ? Then “bingo!” the light went on. Those of you who know us, have probably guessed already. I couldn’t believe that I didn’t know, I really had to question what had happened.

There you have it, our secret it out…. the dogs have taken over the bedroom. Wordless Wednesday it is…. Enjoy mid-week everyone… if you live with a whippet or Porti, be aware, they have minds of their own. Before you know it, they have you trained. =^_^=
