Warning....your village idiot may be missing!

I take Molly on two 2-miles walks every day, once in the morning & again in the afternoon.  We also have two different loops that we take, a morning one & then a different one in the afternoon.

You know how every neighborhood has that person....you know....the one that's a little different from the norm?  Well we have this lady that doesn't just have a "few screws loose" hers are "missing in action"! 

In fact I would even goes so far as to say she is certifiable!  Big Time!! 

She has a beagle named Dexter who howls at every person, car, animal...in fact he howls at anything that moves!  Most people say they are not sure which end of the leash is the wackiest!
For the past two weeks, no matter what time I leave the house, I meet her.

I don't get it!

She doesn't live that close, in fact several blocks away.  I don't stick to a schedule this time of the year,  sometimes when it's cold I wait a while in the mornings.  The afternoon it's anytime after 4pm, as long as I get back before dark.

Now for all you people out there who might be keeping score,  I just want you to know one thing.  I am the one with the perfectly well-behaved dog trotting along next to me, looking down her nose at that dog as if to say  "I just don't get what your problem is"

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Liza's treat ball

This is one of the most important things in our house - it is Liza's treat ball! I bought this about 9 or 10 years ago & it had a "trap door" where the gaping hole is & when you put treats in it you could control how easily they would fall out as the ball rolled around. Liza learned that if she rolled it down the stairs the treats would usually fall out which is why it looks this way. I have tried super glue etc. but it never stays together! It is sadly beaten & broken but try as I may I have never been able to find another one like it. I have spent hours looking & have bought many similar but nothing will ever take it's place. She knows where it is almost all the time - usually keeps it in her bed - but when it's missing she just paces the house until someone helps her find it. She used to be able to hold it in her mouth like this by just hooking it onto her eye tooth Now she just puts her bottom jaw into the opening like this There is a rit...
