Looks like our little puppy Daisy is overcome with mirth...we're always joking around. But no, I just caught her in mid-yawn on this recent lazy day loaded with bad weather, including heavy rain, keeping her inside...and curled up on the recliner. When we first got her at a pet adoption fair at PetSmart in May of '22 she was only seven pounds...but we then believed that she could grow to be 60 or higher at full weight. But Daisy Dewlop, as Melissa, her human mommy, likes to call her, stabilized at 41 lbs. She's quite a vocal character who has a mission to fight squirrels, birds, bugs, lizards...and trucks. Humans, dogs...and especially humans with dogs...are okay when she's looking out the window at home, though: they may pass! Yet she's still pretty skittish and tense while in the car or out in public, barking up a hysterical storm when she spots people and other dogs close by. We are training her to overcome her anxiety, though, and respond more readily to our commands. Daisy is definitely a great blessing to us. Below is a shot of her, with her "cousin" Kairi (our daughter Rebecca's dog) on lookout duty at our front window...
