A winner and a loser

 


There was the first village dog show today and Roger was robbed. He was only really eligible for one class and flunked out to a blind Mongrel with an I am Blind coat on

Isit only a couple of years since the male voice choir sang to her



We got home mid afternoon, only to find Weaver asleep on the couch. She heard my effusive hello , of that  I was sure, as she opened one eye then closed it again with an attitude of distain bordering on contempt

  1. Sorry for Roger, he's a winner in blogland. As for Weaver, she obviously intends to come and go to her own beat! You are just there to provide food and shelter.

    Sorry Roger was robbed.
    There are no losers in the Gray household.
    Wishing you, Weaver, Bun, Mary & Roger a calm, peaceful, and relaxing weekend together.

  4. Glad Weaver has returned. All of our best dogs have been "Mongrels"

    Welcome home(?), Weaver.
    I grew up with a cat that had a significant territory, nearly a mile in any direction. There were lots of woods around and wildlife snacks to be had. And in the coldest winter, the cat would lay on the radiators and soak up the 75-degree heat in my family’s greenhouses… and beg for donuts.

  6. Oh, that is the news we've all been waiting for. Weaver returns!
    Well, losing to a blind dog isn't too bad. I know your blog readers think he's a winner anyway! xx

    That cat will torment the life out of you, off she will trot on her escapades and you will worry for her safety, then she will trot back to start the cycle all over again, bloody clever that Weaver. Glad she is home now and you are hopefully OK. Jan in Castle Gresley

  9. Glad that Weaver has returned. That cat will be the death of you. Poor Roger not winning but a blind dog would have got the sympathy vote.

    Glad Weaver is home. Get her GPS tracked for Bun's peace of mind at least.

    Poor Roger, I hope he wasn't too disappointed, especially since he wouldn't have been able to read what the blind dog's coat said.

    And glad you can stop worrying about your wandering girl. We got our little dog a GPS tracker after she ran away once in the woods and was lost overnight.

    Cheers, Ceci

  12. No one - and I mean NO ONE - is going to vote against a blind dog.

  13. I love those pictures and especially the one of the young girl who was dressed with such style. I'm guessing her pet was a French bulldog and that is why she wore that pert black tam. So cute.
    I'm sure Roger's loss had little significance for him because I would bet he had plenty of attention anyway.
    As for Weaver - cats! I once had a cat who honestly lived nine lives. Each near death experience only made her more resilient.

    So happy Weaver decided to come home and yes Roger is a winner, she just didn’t need a sympathy vote. My last dog, Gracie, won the mongrel class in the Grenada dog show, only because she barked at the judge; he liked her spunk gigi

  18. Weaver was probably just "out on the razz", caterwauling with randy toms on Byron Street. You should try it yourself some time.
