Hi It's Guinness. The sun is going down. It is getting dark. But Maggi has lost her slippers!
We look far and wide. Now we are in the JUNGLE! Gulp. WE have to wade through this deep dark ravine!
It is spooky in here. I hope we don't come across any crocodiles!
EEEEKKK! A fat hippopotamus!!! Oh. It is just Maggi. PHEW!
Now look. This is trouble. Do you know what this is? This is an entire field of poisin Ivy. Good thing my human is covered up--and good thing dogs are not affected by it!
GACK! Leaves of Three? LEAVE IT BE!
We are still searching through the jungle. But there are no sign of Maggi's slippers. Until suddenly...we come to a clearing and...
finally--the LADY has found her SLIPPERS!
Aaaaack! Poison ivy! For those of us very allergic people, anything that goes through that nasty weed is a problem...handling the clothes, petting the dog...you name it. Hope nobody fell victim to the miserably itchy result!

SCREEEEEAM! Poison Ivy!!! ICK! K9friend and I know petting a dog that's been in it will make us miserable.
ReplyDeleteLove this post. Seeing them 'splore in the 'jungle'.
I used Maggi as an example last night. Sage, my hubs, was calling out to Rosie who is now blind. She couldn't find him or the door. I reminded him of sweet Maggi who is also blind and doing fine. They can be alright and adjust. Lots of life and love in these dogs and they see deeper in their blindness than most sighted PEOPLE!
Oh, that was just so sweet. We were going to suggest that maybe some prince would come along with her slippers:) Poison ivy - scary stuff!
