Day 119 ~ Libby Needs Food!

Petsmart Aisle

A mini-crisis at the Vivanco household. Libby, our lovable and demanding dachshund ran out of food.We didn't discover it until dinner last night. Not to worry, she didn't starve. Libby just ate some of Margarget's food, which is designed for bigger dogs. Libby, however, is supposed to get her Eukanuba Dachshund food. So, before I picked up Matthew from work, I stopped at Petsmart to make my purchase.

the small bag of dogfood

 I almost got the wrong size. This small bag was only four pounds.

The Large bag of Dogfood

 I did find the bigger bag, finally. Obviously, the bigger bags last longer than the smaller ones.

14 pounds of doggy goodness

Yep, fourteen pounds! I am not sure how long that will last. I know Karen would remember. I don't pay attention to those things really.

The crisis has been averted and Libby, who is about to eat breakfast, will have her own food.

See you tomorrow.

Day 116~ A Kid lounging about Church

A Kid busy at Work

It was the end of the first church service and this kid was waiting on her mother who was busy talking. What better thing for a kid to do than lay down and play on their tablet.  

they look like cats to me.

 It's some kind of virtual Pet store game.  She gets to go around with her virtual self and buy animals, I suppose. I wonder if she has to feed them too?

How much is that dogie in the window

I guess she's feeding the puppies. Or going to buy them.

Hamsters on the Nest

Apparently, this is mama hamster and papa hamster because the kid was all excited to tell me that they were just about to have a litter.

"Smile? I AM smiling! "

Kids will always find ways to amuse themselves. That is good; it keeps them out of trouble.

See you tomorrow.

Day 86 ~ Remembering Zorro!

Zorro!

Zorro was my daughter's dog but since she was away at school, my wife and I grew very attached to him as we took care of him.And Zorro had a perfect personality fit for my daughter! Zorro had a liver shunt and other health problems which is why he only lived a couple of years.   He had a modified no protein diet so he really didn't find his dog-food tasty. It would take him 30 -40 minutes to eat a meal! The funny thing is every time we got the bowls out to get their dinner both dogs would go wild. Libby, our dachshund, would whine and run in circles until we gave her her food and Zorro would do actual body slams against the kitchen cabinet. But when the bowls would be placed on the floor, Zorro would just sniff it and walk away. My son Justin would say he was like a kid who was always promised pizza but ended up with broccoli.

Zorro LOVED to hang out with Sara. even when she was playing the piano.

with Libby, at YOU"RE DOG IS WORTH IT TOO event

at the Vet

Sara wrote a song for him!

 We really miss Zorro and even though he was here for a short time, he really did brighten up out lives!

See you tomorrow.

Day 77 ~ Some Margaret Pictures

a bit anxious in the car

Here is a picture we took of Margaret in the back seat of the car. She gets very anxious in the car and likes to look out the window.

looking up

This was taken by Karen looking directly down on the two resting dogs. Libby, our dachshund, likes to lay close to the refrigerator because its warm.

profile shot

Yes, there was snow on the ground but it was melting.

I don't post as nearly as much pics of my dogs as I'd like only because I want to make this My Daily Phone Pic Blog not My Daily Dog Pic blog.

See you tomorrow.
