Intelligent Conversations

Browser is the bearded collie. Murphy is the neufoundland. They are probably two of my favorite dogs to walk.
Browser loves me dearly, and can't seem to take his eyes off of me on our walks. Murphy is jut the largest dog I have ever walked. Either way, you can't walk these dogs without having a smile on your face.
Yesterday, I walked the Murphster, followed by Browser.
As I was walking Browser, I was telling him about Murphy, and how much fun it might be to walk them together. I told Browser that he would look like a chihuahua next to Murphy.
When I looked up, I saw a woman gardening, a few feet away.
"Oops!--You caught me having an intelligent converstaion with the dog!"
We both laughed.
"He's a good listener," I added.
She replied: "Is he deaf?"

It Takes All Kinds

Busy weekend. School is out all next week, so people go away, and leave their pets in my care. I have Murphy, the Neufoundland. He is HUGE, weighs about as much as I do. I am told that when he was younger, he was afraid of stop signs. Walking him is like walking a Wookie.





I have Sketch, and company. Sketch has IBS, so I have to give him his medication.




I have Moose and Miggy. Moose is the big guy, and if you heard him talk, you'd know why they call him Moose.




I have Maui, a 21 year old cat, also on medication.




I have Toby, whose family all went away, except his dad, who had to work this weekend. Toby still has alot of pup in him, so he is probably the hardest one to walk, because he likes to pull.




I have Monet, and sometimes Nellie.

Meet Murphy.
He is a Newfoundland.
He is massive. Although his human says he only weighs 140, he looks much bigger. He has paws like a bear.
I think he kind of looks like Darth Vader, yet I also see some Oprah Winfrey in his broad nose and far set eyes. And that hair! What a lovely dog!
What do you think of Murphy?
