Lynn at Unequal Marriage hosts this Thankful Thursday. Hope you will stop by and see what other grateful hearts have to thank God for today!
I don't know about you, but I cannot imagine life without my furry family members!! God really blessed us with three amazing pets!! They have all added so much joy to our home!!! Allow me to introduce them to you!!!
This is Penelope...we call her Penny for short. She is a 3 yo Rat Terrier we bought from a lady in Daytona, and weighs 12 pounds. She is the fastest dog I have seen in person, and is incredibly agile! She is extremely obedient, and such fun to play with.
If you put your hand toward her to pet her she immediately rolls over so you can rub her belly!!
I love this pose! So very dainty!!
Then there is "CRITTA" He is a male seal point Siamese, and along with his stunning good looks, he loves to chase a laser penlight, and play with Penny.
He often jumps up on the chair behind me when I'm on the computer and starts "necking" with me. It is too cute and completely irresistible! He hasn't been brave enough to jump in and play with both the dogs yet.
And finally we have Cooper, who most of you have seen already. We rescued him from a shelter in North Georgia last April, and he is the most wonderful dog. He was going to be euthanized (I'll share the whole story on another post)
and I am so glad that God moved in both my heart and Randy's to make the trip and save him.
Cooper is a Bearded Collie, which is an old British herding breed. He weighs 50 pounds, is medium sized and is the sheer delight of our family and all who come in contact with him.
My hubby likes to pull him up onto his side of the bed in the morning to give him some lovin'. I snapped these yesterday a.m. Randy pulled the covers up over him and he just stayed there! Too cute!!
What is really funny is that he totally has my hubby's temperament! People even say he looks like him.
What more can I say? Thank you Lord, for the gift of these wonderful pets in our lives. Thank you for creating them, and for blessing our world with the wonder of animals we can safely keep in our homes and love!!
PURE JOY!!!
Have you hugged your pets today and thanked God for them??
Have a sunshiney day!!
