The Dog House

Happily, Anneliese is doing much better and today, she even allowed me to take a picture of her. She is getting up and around much more, and has been going for walks with me and runs in the yard. It’s so nice to see her getting back to her old self once again.

Meanwhile today I was looking for Greta and I couldn’t find her! I went walking around the house calling her name and nothing! Finally, I walked up the hill to my neighbors house to see if she had seen Greta. I didn’t even have to ask, for there Greta was asleep on her door step!

My neighbor’s grandchildren are visiting from Oregon, and Greta simply adores them. The year I brought Greta home from Germany Matina and James were visiting their Grandmother for three weeks and that was enough for Greta to fall very much in love with them!

Greta

After her trip up to see the kids, she came home and took a little nap.

One really great thing about each and every one of my dogs is that they are all characters, with their own personalities and quirks!

Also, if we didn’t already have enough dogs of our own, tonight we had a guest.

I was going out to walk Greta when I saw this dog sitting on our patio. Before I knew what was going on the other three dogs brushed by me (Fritz knocked me down!), and were all over this poor thing.

The dog was lost and scared. Once we put the four Dackel Princess dogs in the house, Hubby and I examined it to make sure it was okay. I called a few neighbors, but no one knew whose dog it was.

Then we called the Police and they were going to come and take it to the Dog Pound. A few minutes later, they called us back. They’d located the owner and within 15 minutes they arrived to collect the poor dog. It turns out the dog is a rescue and had only been with them for a week.

All I can say is…what a nice dog. It looked like a cross between a Boarder Collie and an Australian Shepherd. I sure hope she is okay now and won’t run off again.

If she does, then I hope she ends up back here at the Dackel Princess house, where we can take care of her until her owners come.

  1. So nice to see your world approaching normalcy. The lost pooch was certainly beautiful, and happy you were able to return her to her current home. Have a wonderful rest of the weekend

  2. How funny that one of your dogs headed off to a different porch, and then you found a new dog on your porch!!

    I love that photo of the rescue dog-with the glowing eyes of your pups in the door behind him!!

  3. Good news for Anneliese ! Life goes on. What a cute dog, poor thing he probably had already some changes in his life. I am missing Yanouk so much. Each time I go on the terrace I expect to see his big face looking through the hedge and on Thursday I missed my walk with him. I am so happy that Dominique is away for a week with her grandson, so that she has no time to think too much. But when she comes home the house will be so empty !
