Thursday Thirteen, Greta



1. When I wake up each morning, Greta is under the covers lying on her back with her feet stuck up in the air.

2. Greta can hardly wait for Hubby to wake up each morning. When he finally does she races over to him and squeals with delight!

3. She will chase Fritz around the house, just for the fun of it. But they are friends.

4. Her favorite place to sit is on the back of the sofa, where she can look out the window and watch the world go by. Should a cat creep into our yard or a person walk down the street, all heck breaks lose!
5. She doesn’t know she is a small dog and will go up the drive and bark at the Newfoundland Dog in the next yard.


6. She talks to you with all sorts of tones in her voice, and will keep it up until you pay attention to her.
7. She loves to curl up on my chest and tuck her head under my chin.


8. She claims all rawhide bones in the house are hers and will run Fritz off, growling and barking, from any bone he gets near!


9. She steals my seat and when I try to sit down she pushes me with her back legs. She tries to win this one, but never does!


10. She loves children. Most especially Matina, who arrives tomorrow.


11. She will jump up in Hubby’s chair and wag her tail wildly waiting for him to sit down with her.
12. She watches me, out of the corner of her eye, when I eat my meals. I know she is just waiting for me to drop anything so she can steal it!
13. Her nick name is Greta Garbo, and she actually will come if you yell, “MIss Garbo!” Yes, Greta just knows she is a star!!!

  1. That is such a cute 13! what a special dog she is. And such a cuddler. I bet she will be happy to see her little friend tomorrow!

  2. Oh honey! I love, love, love this Thirteen! You are my doggie connection – so don’t ever go on vacay, ok?

    Cheers from 2-Cat Meowfia.

  3. She also liked to throw herself in front of Auntie Janet’s size 9.5s as she’s walking and laugh when she gets yelled at!

  4. What a sweetheart! I love when they cuddle and get right up next to you, and then try to kick you out of your spot, hilarious!
    She’s a star allright!
    Have a great Thursday!

  5. I love that we both have a dog named Gretta Garbo, although I do spell it with two ‘t’s. And we love our Gretta bunches too. This was a great TT. I played for the first time today. Pam

  6. Dear one,

    Love Uschi
