Far Guy and I have never had a retriever in our lives before Sadie. The instinct to retrieve something/anything is very strong.
Like one morning recently, she came downstairs to say good morning and walked past Far Guy and went to the laundry room and got a fuzzy sock for him just in case he needed it.
She has a container full of toys and has many favorites. We should have taught her to put away her toys!
I have both of my crocs at the moment!

Aw, I do miss having a dog around here. Cute.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cutie!
ReplyDeleteI have had lots of laughter at the things our retriever brought us back in the day.
ReplyDeleteRetrievers are such fun dogs!!
ReplyDeleteOur older daughter has 2 goldens, and they are both so charming and loveable. The older dog Samson doesn't do much "retrieving" around the house, but the younger one does. Newt is a sock thief in particular, especially dirty socks, and even has swallowed them. Once that required surgery at the emergency vet clinic. The kids are now trained to NOT leave socks laying around. LOL Gotta love those fur babies.
ReplyDeleteDogs are great companions.
ReplyDeleteA person would think Sadie just loves being near Far Guy - - - if you hadn't mentioned the lunch - - but we do know she loves his company - - with or without food.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried any Oofos shoes or sandals? Catch them ON SALE if possible. I was impressed with how quickly they took the pressure off my knees and the big toe joint. I got some that are like slippers but also indoor/outdoor. However I stay in socks or flat slippers inside the house for the majority of the day. It is difficult to find anything comfortable enough to wear all the time. Even before I retired over ten years ago, I was changing shoes at least once a day. However - - - no complaints. I am still upright on both feet.
The person we bought this place from left two dogs, a golden and a golden/lab mix. They we
ReplyDeleteere both fabulous dogs.
Having a dog in the house is so comforting.
ReplyDeleteDogs are a lot smarter than we think. For people like me, dogs train us not we train dogs.
ReplyDeleteInteresting about retrievers. Dogs have been such an important part of your life. I'm glad you have such a sweet borrowed one.
ReplyDeleteLol. Too cute! She is a sweetie!
ReplyDeleteSadie is such a pretty dog, and she obviously enjoys you and Far Guy's company too.
ReplyDeleteI pictured this whole post immediately. My grandson has a retriever and Magi will drive you nuts going to retrieve what she thinks you need. She is such a pretty dog
ReplyDeleteShe is so pretty and sounds like she is well behavioured
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what dogs can do. I am a cat person but I don't believe I have ever seen a cat bring me a sock! haha
ReplyDeleteWhat a great companion.
