For this Friday Five, name five practices, activities, people or _____ (feel free to fill in something I may be forgetting) that for you are rivers in the desert.
1. I really love to meet new people. I like dogs, but I love people even more. Most people love me, too, unless they are just afraid of big dogs. I tell them, "You should see my brother at home!"
2. Milkbones are the best treat ever! I would do almost anything for a Milkbone. My mom calls them "doggie crack," but I'm not sure what that means.
3. The smell of cat food in the air, either being put down for the cat or freshly thrown-up by one of our cats. I can smell it anywhere in the house, and I feel it's my job to go and clean it up as quickly as possible.
4. Sitting in my chair in the living room. I like to hang out with my people in the evening, when they are watching TV. Sometimes the kids try to get my chair, and sometimes I might let one of them, but I prefer to sit in it and be with all of them. They can lie on the floor. It won't hurt them.
5. Going to the vet. The people there all know me, and when I have an owie they make it better. I have had lots of owies in my life. My joints are not very good. When I was still a puppy I had two kinds of surgery, one for a hip, and one for both elbows. Today the vet (her name is Dr. Molly, isn't that high-larious?) told my mom I have arthritis in one of my wrists, too, so I am going to take a bigger dose of my medicine every day and see if that helps. My mom loves me a lot, and so does my dad, even if he is grumpy sometimes when I lie down during a walk. But now he will have to let me because Dr. Molly said so!
What are your rivers in the desert?

glad you have your own chair Mollie!
I like sharing chairs with the humans, too. For some reason they keep booting me off of them. Something about 'shed' (I thought that was out back??)
Oh well.
And it would be nice to have another one to clean up after me. Hmmmm... I will have to talk to Bearded Scritcher and Giver of Greenies!

Hi Molly! The Boy and I have doggie crack, too.
I do not like being at the vet, but I put up with it because I get to go for a RIDE to get there and back.
You know I have my own couch in the living room... well, I also have my own chair in the den, but sometimes I let The Alpha use it.
I am afraid of big dogs, but I suspect that you and your mom would make it okay to hang out with you. And I would never sit in your chair.
