Happy Monday!! We had a Girls Only Weekend because Barry went on his annual Men’s Hike with some friends. I stayed home with Maggie and Sydney and made sure that the blueberries still taste good this close to September. They do, yummy! Sydney and Maggie solidified their friendship even more over the weekend after Maggie discovered what a joy it is to have Syd do some tricks in trade for a nibble on a treat.
That said, Maggie has also fallen in love with the idea that she has the power to get Syd to shake a paw and stay in one place and sometimes fails to dole out the treat in a reasonable amount of time. I guess you could say we’re working on sharing already. Sydney is so patient with Maggie’s shenanigans, even letting Maggie dump water on her from the Sandy Lagoon!
Along with the new treat fascination came more interest in Sydney’s water and food dishes. Remember this? Well, the love-fest with Sydney’s water dish was not short lived. This weekend brought a whole new level with Maggie walking around with the dish trying to deliver the water directly to the, apparently, thirsty Pug. Sadly, after this happened one too many times, the water dish broke and is now replaced with one that isn’t so easy to lift.
I’d almost rather have Maggie be walking around the house with Syd’s water dish because this appears to be the other option:
