Stop in for a cup of coffee

Hope all is going well, sounds like it is. Yep, Buddy my boxer figured it out quickly, and seemed to alway stay on my right side when walking, when I sat down we got a kick out of how more protective he was when Treva walked over to me, he would stand from sitting and nose up to her real quick, it was so funny, Treva would say don't worry! Ain't going to hurt me and got a bit jealous, Buddy was only 3 at the time.
Well, I got my lungs looked at again , do it every year for 6 years now.. hope I get another good report later today.. just got off the mower and started laundry, you stand strong cousin


That reminds me of this story from this weekend:

'Remarkable story': Missing 2-year-old found sleeping on family dog in Upper Peninsula woods​


MENOMINEE COUNTY (WWJ/AP) - A missing 2-year-old girl who wandered away from her Upper Peninsula home with two family dogs this week was safely found hours later as she slept on the smaller dog like "a furry pillow," authorities said.

“She laid down and used one of the dogs as a pillow, and the other dog laid right next to her and kept her safe,” Lt. Mark Giannunzio said Thursday. “It’s a really remarkable story.”

Michigan State Police at the Iron Mountain post said they were dispatched to a home in the Faithorn area of Menominee County about 8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 20, after the girl was reported missing.

Faithorn is a rural, unincorporated community in Menominee County, between Iron Mountain and Escanaba. It is located one mile east of the Wisconsin state line and about 60 miles southwest of Marquette.

Brooke, the toddler's mother, told WJMN Local that Thea, 2, managed to slip off unnoticed with the two family dogs -- one of which is a Rottweiler -- when she had her back turned.

After realizing her daughter and the dogs were gone, Brooke said she frantically searched and called her name as friends and neighbors jumped to search the heavily wooded area around their home.

"We were searching all around the yard, up and down the road, screaming at the top of our lungs calling her name. We were calling for the dogs because they were missing too," she said.

"Everywhere around here is completely wooded, deep thick woods around here and there's a swamp over there so of course we're freaking out," Brooke added.

After 15 minutes, the police were called. A massive search effort went on for hours, involving drones, K-9 units, and help from citizens from Michigan and Wisconsin.

Troopers described the search area as very remote and wooded.

Around midnight Thursday, MSP said a citizen riding an ATV came across the missing girl and the two family dogs about 3 miles from her home. The girl was reportedly found sleeping on the smaller dog while the Rottweiler, watched over them

Giannunzio said the girl was evaluated by medical personnel and appeared in good health.

As reported by WJMN Local, Brooke said she is 'still in such shock' following the incident and wrote on Facebook: 'It was the nightmare I never wanted to live through. I'm so glad my baby girl is safely home with us tonight. Her doggies kept her safe. I'm still in shock...I was in shock that she was literally gone in like a split second."
