We have a doggie door, but it is not only used by dogs.
It has been used by cats, a bunny, snakes, and frogs.
We are not surprised to see a golden retriever even when we do not have one.
Living in the country, it is not surprising to see a new animal in the house daily.
It is spring time here. The high is seventy-two today, no animal should want to be in.
I want to live outside today myself, yet, here they come – a little parade of woodland creatures.
The skunks come first we stand back and try not to irritate or annoy them.
Then the opossums. They are great because they eat wood ticks off our skin.
It is terrific! I tell my husband; so glad we have a dog-door.
You are the animal-lover, not me, he says. The cat ran in twice today.
Shark is an outdoor cat, he knows this, but possibly the smell of the tiny black mouse
Living under the refrigerator was too enticing to resist.
I had hoped that Shark who has his own outside kill room caught said mouse.
But no, at midnight I heard the shriek-scream of a five-year-old girl.
My husband who does not like any animals except the dog, a spoiled cocker spaniel.
All the bare feet around here and the mouse had to pick his to prance across?
Sophie Helen our cocker spaniel pooch
Loves nothing better than a tiny little smooch
She can hear the ham container the second it pops
Jumping to the top of the couch; her wiggle never stops
We laugh that she can hear a candy wrapper a mile down the road
She loves sugar, beef, and table scraps; she is such a funny toad!
Her best trick by far is running with her stuffed duck in her mouth.
She grabs him for courage, when things seem to turn south.
The duck is called “her baby” and we laugh about it a lot.
It is decrepit, falling apart, with a broken neck, surely distraught.
But it is her baby and she comes running inside
To get it in her mouth when other dogs would be looking to hide.
We see her run back out through her dog door so quickly.
The duck’s head is bobbing, it’s eyes glazed and thickly.
Sophie Helen is our guard dog. She barks strangers away.
Gets so angry at the delivery guys each and every single day.
Another trick she has is the trick to fall asleep everywhere.
On a rug, bare wood floor, bed, couch, or towel covered chair.
Her little dog tongue, lolling out of her mouth, showing pink.
She looks quite dead, but her snoring is loud and succinct.
We adore this little pup, she is our baby, tis true.
If you came to visit, she would be so barkingly angry with you.
Until you had been here two seconds, then she would be in your lap.
Cuddling up in sweet friendship, taking her sweet doggy nap.
Magazines with gorgeous people come to our house consistently.
We have six grandchildren who attend a private school.
They have a magazine-selling quota and we used to try to help them meet it.
Magazines line our hallways, are stacked on top of the refrigerator, and surround our TVS.
And we have nineteen TVs.
There are magazines under our pillows, under our mattress, and between the box springs.
They have replaced the platform that we used to use to hold the bed up.
We do not read them.
We used to try, but discovered they are rather boring
As we do not know any of these gorgeous people on the covers.
Except Oprah.
I do know Oprah.
We are avidly watching Nick at Night
And old Carol Burnett TV shows and John Wayne movies.
We know them too.
Watching them is in vain tonight, as our eyes keep wandering to the little black cocker spaniel puppy
Who keeps slipping and sliding on magazines as she tries to get to her recliner.
Just over four years ago
A question was asked
Do we get a pet
And answer our ask
So we consulted the kids
As they gave us choices
For in our family
We listen to voices
A cat would be nice
But sadly not
As we have asthma in the family
So a cat was not sought
No bird or rabbit or even a fish
Was in the thoughts of our children's wish
One thought, that did spring to mind
A breed of dog of the most beautiful kind
They are small and cuddly
With different colours of coats
But the one we went for
And we forever dote
His name is Digger
Which is his Pedigree name
He is a Golden Cocker Spaniel
From dog show fame
Through good days and bad days
He is always happy and playing
Our most delightful pet
Who treats all days the same
Well that’s something new I said with a twist.
A lopsided pile of dogs that went past my wrist.
They are still coming down! Watch out said boy Pete.
I looked to the sky, and was bombarded by feet.
Paws, tails, wiggles, and slurping tongues from the sky.
I could not stop looking as dogs came down – me oh my!
How is this happening? I asked as a collie went floating by.
A boxer and bulldog breathed in my hair and gave me a sigh.
A cocker spaniel breezed down, with sore red eyes.
I was surprised by a mastiff, who was giant size.
A cairn terrier was the next to land with a lurch.
I knew now that God had heard my prayer in church.
I had asked for a dog, so this had to be assign.
I turned to my mother and asked “Which dog is mine?”
She was horrified, and stopped devouring her bread made with leaven.
Wishing she had never told me I would have to ask heaven.
Our cocker spaniel Sophie had a stroke
She could not lift her head or drink water
Even after we poured some out onto the floor
We had no choice but to take her to a vet
And have her put out of her misery
Our other dog Buddy looked for her for awhile
Buddy now sleeps where Sophie used to sleep on the floor
When I am in my bed, I often feel an animal curl into the small of my back
I reach around to give a pet, but this is an angel dog
This is where Sophie always used to sleep when she got up on this bed
So even though she is supposedly gone
She is still here; I have the feel of her as proof
It gives me comfort as I feel her push into the small of my back
Death has separated no one
I am in stealth-mode today, sneaking from place to place, unwilling to be stopped or recognized.
My cocker spaniel has honored this in absolutely no way, not recognizing this new improved sneaky side of my me-ness.
I have slipped in and out of rooms, not making eye contact, where I stand motionless, listening, unobserved, unnoticed, hearing noises I had never heard before, noises meant for today only.
I creep into my husband’s office. I am dressed from neck to feet in black, I am not wearing a helmet or a veil, but I have cautioned my burgundy hair to keep quiet.
I stand for a second, watching my man, on the other side of the room. He is wearing headphones, looking down, at something probably not as interesting or stealthy as me on his desk.
Suddenly my awful side urges me to open my eyes wide and push my mouth into full blown wide-open mid-gallop, knowing what will happen.
Full stealth now, I pray the dog does not notice me and enter.
I know the instant he has spotted me standing there in full-blown-not-quite-rigor-but-almost-as-scary attention, unmoving, stealth-mode.
He jumps a foot.
Why do you do that? He asks me.
Making me laugh.
Sophie Helen, my snuggle bunny,
Knows my whereabouts day and night.
She launches herself next to the small of my back
And we snore and dream together.
I dream I am flying
She dreams she is flying with me
Sophie Helen adores me. She is territorial.
I am her property, and she warns me about others.
Birds, cats, trucks on the road, all make her mad.
She gets furious if anyone else tries to touch me.
If my husband kisses the top of my head
She goes ballistic.
She is my savior.
Sophie Helen is my husband’s girl when I am not here.
He tells me stories about her snuggling up
to the small of his back.
He gets braggy about it
Not realizing she does this for me every night.
She is our baby, our girl, the one who stayed with us
After all our children grew up and left.
Sophie Helen is our light to the other world.
The one who assures us that we will make it there.
She comforts us like no other.
There is no mistake that God and Dog have the same three letters.
Unconditional love is what they are both about.
Giving us an assurance that all is well.
Queenie a white dog with an oversized face
Loved to slurp our entire faces with her giant tongue
Adored riding her when we were young
Did not stay on long
Spot a cocker spaniel mix always chased cars
Loved to be loose, but my parents put her on a chain
She had a sad life, eight miserable years attached to a dog house
I never wanted a dog at my parents after this
Tommy a black and white kitten with the greenest eyes
learned to make a “mama” newborn sound
Which woke me up out of a sleep when he got shut outside too long
Was inside and outside
Lucky, a gorgeous Newfoundland mix puppy
She lived to be twelve; was our gentle giant
No one liked us better than Lucky
She would have died for us
Peepers, a calico cat, who had nine lives
A combination of browns, whites and oranges.
My daughter Angela’s favorite animal ever
She lived to be twenty-one
Blue, a husky puppy, lived to be ten
One brown eye, one blue eye
Kept us entertained.
Growled at anyone who was cross with me
Sophie Helen, our current cocker spaniel pup
She could use $400 worth of dental work.
My husband rolled his eyes and said “no”.
“We don’t even spend that kind of money on our own teeth.”
Shark, our current tabby,
He lives up to his name.
Has his own kill room.
Don’t ask to see it.
A cross between a Great Dane and a German shepherd of course.
Dumped on us a few months ago; Buddy is the size of a small horse.
He has big ears and exotically interesting markings of black and white.
Year and a half old, he chews up everything in and out of his sight.
He has chewed up a mattress of memory foam, and six of my shoes.
Mates of each he has never felt compelled to taste; so I always lose.
He has eaten the leather off some couches, and an antique chair.
He often comes flying at me at ninety degrees – traveling in the air.
Lands on my lap; his big butt hits the button and the chair reclines.
Stuck in a laying position until my husband finally hears my whines.
Buddy has eaten every poison mouse trap in the garage and hall.
Loves chasing rabbits, squirrels, the cat and a yellow tennis ball.
Easier if Sophie, our twelve-year-old cocker spaniel was gone.
She is angry as a heck that this giant is on the loose, no swan.
Dainty in no way, he is a giant puppy who wants to frolic and play.
And Shark the cat, has been missing since Buddy showed up one day.
