A chronicle of life with dogs, or what you will.

Girls Night In

Mad Dog Maddy and I got to play all weekend when her and I went to visit a friend and her dog in Wisconsin. My little black-fur bundle of fire chased my friend’s five year old Short Haired German Pointer - Berta - literally around the house.

Thankfully both Berta and Maddy enjoyed each other’s company - they even went so far to share a bed. It was great: my friend and I got to catch up over lasagna and a glass of wine, and the “girls” got to play all night. However, I don’t think Berta has ever seen someone with so much energy as Maddy, as Berta was pooped out after five minutes. Maddy, on the other hand, played all night long.

Regardless, the girls all around had a great night. It’s unfortunate that Maddy can sleep the afternoon away while I have to work.
