Saturday’s Critters – Our Pets

A post for our pets.

Our female terrier mix, Sadie, in a rare moment of hanging out with her older, but littler brown brother Kodi the Pomeranian. Kodi is kind of a pill to have around and our vet suggested a female terrier mix who was bigger than he was. That is why we got Sadie and it was worked out wonderfully. Sadie is a little sweetheart and not aggressive at all until Kodi lunges at her and then she flips on his back and puts a paw on his chest to hold him. That has done wonders for his attitude. After all these months he is starting to try and play with her. So progress is being made.

One even recently when my wife was at an event at night, Kodi was all morose, walking around with his tail hanging down. I took my favorite throw and just put it on the floor by my chair. He quit whining and went over, laid down on it and went to sleep. He likes me okay but after he bit me early last spring and I had to go to urgent care and get four stitches I am very leery of him. I got a new knee in February and got strict instructions that if I get a dog bite to get an antibiotic right away. They said the bacteria will go the metal in my new knee and there could be complications.

Little Sadie is having a tough time this winter. Kodi has a thick enough coat it doesn’t bother him. Sadie loves playing outside but she gets cold and heads for a throw to snuggle up in.

And Lizzy, the sweetest of the three. It is hard to get a sleep photo of her because she always wakes up. She was fast asleep on the couch and woke up when I got close.

Our animals are such a blessing to us.

    Poor Sadie! I know how she feels as I’m always cold. I found some fabulous fleece base layers on a site called 32 Degrees and they have made such a big difference. i wonder if there are fleece made for dogs to wear that would help Sadie when she goes out? Kodi and Lizzy look happy and healthy–I know they must all be wonderful company!

    Hello Yogi,
    Sadie is just adorable and I am glad Kodi is coming around.
    I did not know Kodi bit you bad enough for stitches.
    I would would my distance, she might need the dog whisperer.
    Lizzy does look sweet! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thanks so much for leaving me a comment.

    Good morning, dear blog friend Yogi. Yes, with my own knee implant, I can understand your concerns. The dog must respect its owner.
    When we met, my husband brought a Chow Chow into the relationship. The dog was over 9 years old at the time and I had to win him over. I invested a lot of time and effort into this, and it turned into a wonderful relationship with this dog.
    All the best and best wishes for the second Sunday of Advent ⭐️.

    All your critters are so cute. I am an animal lover from as far back as I can remember. I keep thinking about making a post of all the animals I’ve had over the years. I need to stop thinking about it and do it.

    They all have pretty eyes! Kodi looks like a koala cub or something.

    I used to have a cocker spaniel who bit me. He had gotten stuck under a chair and panicked. He bit me when I tried to help him and then looked shocked when he realized what he had done. I had to get stitches too.
