Classic Cardigan on Giving Thanks: 5 Less Obvious Reasons Why I'm Thankful for My Dogs


Oh, hi, y'all! You caught me staring at Dug! I could stare at Dug all day, I mean, couldn't you?!

So, about 15 minutes ago, I accidentally discovered Dug .GIFs in a Google search. (OMG!) And, clearly, I couldn't just slam the virtual door in his sweet face, so I went ahead and brought it over here! heehee

It's not bothering you, is it? DUH, of course it isn't! Dug is a happy-pookie-muffin-smooshy-marshmallow-puffy-goober-dog! And, he doesn't bother anyone!

SQUIRREL!

OK, I'm back, and this is "Classic Cardigan on Giving Thanks" week! (Remember, from yesterday?) And that means, it's time for another classic Thanksgiving-inspired post from the archives!

This one's from last year, actually; maybe you'll remember it. ☺

5 Less Obvious Reasons Why I'm Thankful For My Dogs



Because it's almost Thanksgiving, I'd like to share five (less obvious) reasons why I'm thankful for Jon Farleigh and Dewi:

1. They never complain about my cooking. Ever. Even when I do this to the burgers:

The middles were still perfectly edible, you know.
The dogs ate them. Because my kids wouldn't.


2. They follow me everywhere, so I'm never lonely


Never...

...ever lonely.

3. They help keep the cats from running amok, and creating a state of anarchy.

4. They are a collective 70 pounds of double-coated fur blanket, for when I'm cold. 



And if the heater broke and there were no more fires, I'd have enough of their soft, downy undercoat to make several sweaters.


If I knew how to spin yarn...and knit.
(Can you imagine? I could call them cardigan cardigans!)

5. They just plain make me laugh!


Even when they're laughing at me (or yawning, it's hard to tell most days)! ☺



What makes you thankful for your pet(s)?

^^^^^^^^

See you tomorrow, with the next Thanksgiving classic!

  1. And they make us laugh too.

    I'm thankful that Honey hosts foster puppies without complaint and is always there when the fosters go to their new homes.

    Hope you and your family have a delightful thanksgiving.

  4. The mom says she's thankful for us because when she's having a bad day, all she needs is one of us to make her feel better. :) Happy Thanksgiving!
