Thank you for such a useful list!! Some here I did not know; and no we don’t have wolves in New Zealand so I am baffled with the wolfenoot thing Hahaha
Marjorie I am baffled also over the wolfenoot thing as I know there are no wolves in New Zealand LOL
Those are some neat holidays and observances!
Thank you
Hello Nili … love your little pink-jacket and white bow, super pretty! And oh my, you sure hold your own and show ’em whose the boss-lady during your park play … good girl. Say hi to your sweet Mom from Ann and JUNE.
Hi Anne, it is always so good to see you and June, I love Nili in pink also she looks adorable. She has become a real Boss in the park it is quite funny but she is having fun and that is all that matters. Sending hugs to both of you from us
I always appreciate your monthly holiday updates…it means I don’t have to try and remember!! The videos of Nili are adorable. In the first one she looks like she’s on a mission, and nothing is getting in her way, and it’s so sweet to see her playing and having such a great time. I know she’s come a long way and you must be so happy.
Hindy thanks so much, I love doing the monthly holidays as it reminds me and easy to check daily. Nili loves her walks and I always call them her mission walk especially when we going to the park, she has come a long way and growing up with more confidence I am loving watching it and her playing with other dogs is so important.
Love outside walk and play time! Looks like I missed “cook for your pets” day yesterday. I’ll make it up to them later this week!
Tiffany I love the walks and park play time, it is so good for me also as I am sitting outside enjoying the fresh air, plus it is really good for Nili. I cannot wait to see your recipe and food that you will be making for them this week, home cooking is the best.
Those were terrific videos sweet Nili and it looks like you were having a fun time. I love that snuggle picture with your pal too. Thanks for joining Angel Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Terry thank you for your compliments, I love doing videos and catching her playing plus, that snuggle photo is one of my favorites of hers. Thank you so much for your Thursday Thankful Blog Hop, I love catching up on your cats and what they are doing.
Oh my goodness, Nilli looks so adorable in her pretty harness and hair bow! Great videos, I loved seeing her tear it up with the other dogs LOL! That little white dog reminds me of my sweet Phoebe, she looks a lot like her. Thanks for sharing these special dates!
Cathy I love the way she walks it makes me giggle all the time, I am happy you enjoyed the videos and that white dog playing with her was just adorable, you are correct he reminds me of Phoebe bless her. Those playdates are so important
Your list is always so welcome! And thank you so much for adding NEAM! I love the video of adorable Miss Nili prancing along with her happy wagging tail!
Dorothy I am honored to mention NEAM as I know how important it is for you, my list this month would not be the same without it. I love the way she prances also, Miss Wigglebutt all happy going to the park, she makes so many people smile.
I always love your pet holidays. I’m looking forward to a few of these days. I will know remember. Who isn’t thankful for their dog? That seems impossible. Henry says Nili needs a yummy treat since we’re nearly at the weekend.
Terri thanks for your compliment, I love doing the list each month as it makes me remember everything also. I so agree we are all blessed and thankful for having them in our lives. Please give Henry a cookie from Nili and have a great weekend
