LOOOOOOOVE FOLLOWING THE ADVENTURES OF PALOMA AS ANGEL EURYDICE GUIDES HER, ALONG WITH PEDRO AND WOODY❤❤❤❤❤
And these pictures...BEYOND ADORABLE!!!
The video of Paloma playing with Woody while wagging that long tail of hers is so darn cute! This baby is a real smile maker, that's for sure😁
The picture of her after she had to give up her flip flop and her toys were put in front of her....nope, not impressed at all! Flip flops are the best toy ever!!😀
I keep reading references to LITTLE...LITTLE paws, LITTLE puppy, sweet LITTLE face....er...... maybe your brother-in-law and others need some good glasses!🤣😂
I love the little wrinkles on her puppy mug. And her coloring is breathtaking! I even noticed a grey patch mixed in with that beautiful black and white fur. She is sooooo beautiful! Of course, she takes after her Auntie Eurydice 😎
The way you express Paloma 's thoughts, her conversations with Eurydice, Pedro and Woody...brilliant...ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANTLY DONE!! You REALLY know how to put us right into their adventures! We are there! You TRULY have a gift!! This HAS to be a lot of work though! And we love being the beneficiary of all your ja4d work in chronicling thise delightful journey for us! We all look forward to the continuing adventures of Miss Cow and Mini Cow, Pedro and Woody
We love you Teresa💖
Love and light
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
PS Can't wait for Eurydice to teach her how to "take her leash for a walk"😎

Ohhhh Sally 💓
You are so kind, but this is all Angel Eurydice's doing 😄
She guides my thoughts and whispers in my ears, giggling, every time there is some sweet naughtiness to report 🕊😉
Paloma is a wonderful puppy and, believe or not, she isn't that naughty (so far ...)
I think she is still learning about her new life and is unsure of what to expect but that will change, I hope.
I intend to honour my promise ...
If when we go back to visit the breeders and her doggie family she prefers to stay, that is what will happen.
And this is a brand new day for Miss Mini Cow ...
Here's what we did ...

... my new Mom took me to a pet store to get some prezzies for some of her four legged friends ...
... she says we are also going to a garage to fix something in Mom's car ...
... Mom says I have to learn to appreciate the little day to day activities even if they may not sound so exciting per se ...
