I got a new case for my iPad.
Saga met it yesterday.
It did not go well.
Tomorrow I'll get the old one out of the recycling so I can introduce her to the new one. Then maybe my dog and my iPad can be in the same room.
Stay tuned.

When you're having a time out for you over-tired, over-stimulated autistic dog and Alexa thinks you say "play cat noises."

Thing Amazon thinks I'd like:
100 mini glow-in-the-dark ducks.

Apparently the assortment of toys on offer were deemed unsatisfactory.

Someone threw a fit because she didn't have to wear the medi-shirt anymore.
So we put it back on her.
I don't know what this dog.

Monster is displeased with most aspects of the post-spay recovery but she's decided sleepover parties in the living room might be worth all the hassle.

I was so not prepared for how much a GSD sheds.
Birds are happy, though. 🪺
(For reference, this is only half of the initial amount, which was after only about 5 min brushing. Few minutes after the video, all the hair had been carted off.)

Guess whose birthday? Saga turned 1 today!
She hasn't gotten her pose skills quite down yet, but she is only 1.
Life with a photographer will get her in shape.

I witnessed the same thing, but from the Doodle side. Lemme tell ya, facing off a GSD ready to pounce is super creepy.
She just stood there for a full minute without moving, and me in her sightline.

GSD attack! For Mlle DoodleFace, these exchanges always end with her signature smile. For Saga, they end with her paw on DF's head. Best buds. @leksikality

Second trip to groomer a success!
She let them brush her bum with no problem AND walked through a puddle for the very first time!
Not even joking. You should have seen how excited I was the 1st time she peed outside the garden (not til 8 mos).

"Ensorcellate the eye" is a fantastic phrase.
I need to use more words like "ensorcellate."
I can see now that getting through Angela Carter's Burning Your Boats is going to be a lot of forlorn sighs and wistful gazing.

Monster's new meal setup (raised bit). Someone may have dropped her original bowl and broken it. 🫣
She hasn't barked at it, at least, so apparently it's allowed to stay.
We'll see if it's determined fit for use. 🤞

The anachronism of stumbling across this in a Kent housing estate baffles & perplexes.
Is there a rogue Texan among us?
I have questions.

Pretty pleased to be included in this anthology from the Bournemouth Prize & @fresherpress but really cannot express my sheer delight over the cover 🤖

If you live in the USA, you've likely seen this symbol before in wrought iron and never thought twice about it? Did you know that the symbol comes from West Africa?
African blacksmiths, both free and enslaved, were renowned for their skill, particularly in New Orleans...
