OMG .... Codie Rae - you are such a little lady when you eat! How precious is that? I didn't know watermelon was good for dogs so Jasper's been missing out! Going to let her have some later for sure!

Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain.

Wow, Myrtle loves her Watermelon. Frankie says not so much mom. I haven't ever given any of mine Watermelon but Snickers loves Strawberries when I break a piece off & give it to her.
You have a lot of Racoons there Sally. They sure aren't afraid either. Amazing.

OMG with the raccoons ... ours here (few and far between) aren't that 'friendly' ...
Jasper loves her strawberries, carrots, cucumbers, spinach, green beans, brussel sprouts, banana ... you get the picture. Jasper LOVES her fruits and veggies! shelby liked them too but not in the same bat-crazy way that Jasper acts when I pull out the strawberries. I always buy 2 bags of baby carrots since I know I have to 'share' with her. I love that she loves to eat healthy.

OMD Myrtle! You are dainty too! I just love it when you go cross-eyed for watermelon
Papa sez to tell y'all I am SO not dainty! And he has the scars to prove it
Don't know what was up that day but I am usually more like a shark than dainty
Me 'n Jasper Lily must be soul sisters. I love all kinds of fruit and veg and Mama sez I have become a "pest", whatever that is. She sez she can't even pick up a piece of fruit, not to mention eat it, without me coming running and drooling ALL over the place.
As for raccoons, you peeps might think they are cute but I KNOW they are SATAN's MINIONS and up to NO GOOD. They make you think they are cute and lull you into a false sense of security and then they are gonna TAKE OVER THE WORLD!! Just sayin'.....
