Today Wilma and Gus enjoyed a Dunkin Donuts donut! Unfortunately I have a slight addiction to Dunkin Donuts coffee. On occasion while ordering through the drive thru they offer the pups a donut. On our visit today they actually provided us two in a bag, so I took this treats home for them to enjoy. Honestly, I only gave them each half as it really does not seem like they need to be eating an entire donut. However they were more than pleased and Gus took some time trying to figure out how to best devour this unique treat.

I have lost my creativity for new adventures this week. Can you tell it has been raining for days? (haha!) Although I can promise we still took a rainy, local walk before stopping at Dunkin Donuts. Here they are…yum yum!

Merry Christmas from Wilma, Gus, and I! I hope all of our friends and followers had a wonderful time with family and friends. I am blessed to have a very special and loving family to celebrate with on this special day! Below you will see some of my favorites from today and leading up to our the holiday.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Today we were excited to do a photo shoot with Santa! This was Gus’ first time meeting Santa! I was not sure what to expect as Gus is often nervous around those he does not know let alone someone so magical (haha!) However I thought it would be fun, and love these holiday photos so thought we would attempt this meeting. Gus was a little nervous but I was surprised that he was pretty brave. He did not want to get too close to Santa, however warmed up a bit, and I would guess if it was not a very short visit he likely would have ended up in his lap.

As expected Wilma was the perfect poser, and was quite eager to eat the treats provided by Santa and his reindeer. I am not sure why I find these kind of events and photos so entertaining, but I just love these moments and snapshots.

I wanted to thank Quite Fetching Barkery and Pet Boutique in Grafton, Massachusetts! They not only host events like meetings with Santa Clause they also have amazing cakes, and a shop. Definitely check them out if you are a crazy dog mama like me!

The weekly Video/Photo section highlights an Adventure, while I might also sneak in some that are humorous, adorable, or just other fun dog moments. If you have followed my blog from the beginning you know that I adopted Shadow as a puppy, and about a year later adopted Buster as a puppy.  We had many wonderful years together before experiencing the devastating loss of Buster at just seven.  It took a long time for our hearts to heal, but almost a year after his passing we welcomed little Wilma into our world.  We were devastated to loose Shadow on April 3, 2020.These two precious boys boys will be furever in our hearts! We were recently thrilled to add another amazing rescue, Gus, to our home on June 28, 2021! This Weekly Video/Photo section will allow me to share photos from all four of my rescues, whether it be a precious memory, or a current moment.

Today’s photograph is from Camden, Maine this past October. I asked this adorable pair to sit, and being that they were on the steps, the pose was just priceless. Here they are: Wilma and Gus!

This weekend Wilma, Gus, and I went on long local walks, in order to give me time to catch up on the endless leaves and my yard. We were lucky that the weather was warmer than it could be this time of year. Wilma and Gus loved playing ball, running and chasing, sharing sticks, keep away with the balls and toys, and lounging in the sun. It really was a refreshing weekend although I only have fifteen bags done, and still many more to go. I figured I would share some fun photos of this perfect pair, enjoying being outside. Cheers to the endless leaves!

Today Wilma, Gus, and I Adventured to the Harbor Connector Path, and some additional sections of the multi-use trail system in Salem, Massachusetts. The Harbor Connector Path is the location of the temporary “Sculpture Garden”.

We had a sunny Adventure to the Harbor Connector Path. Today I decided to do some local walks and exploring with this pathway being the only new location of the day. I accidentally found it and thought it looked like an interesting place to take a stroll. The path went along the water, marsh, through a park, and even by a beach. I was especially drawn to this walkway by the sculptures, such a fun feature. The trail was reasonably busy with runners, walkers, bikers, and dog walkers. It was a beautiful Fall day with the sun out and shining. So glad we could check out this Trail Network in Salem today (this blog will not be rated).

I have decided to make some changes to my Throwback section. This is partly because I have had the blog for about three years and each week I have posted an Adventure from before I started the blog. This has become more challenging between finding old photographs, and identifying the location. Although I will still be adding some here and and there I thought I would also use the Throwback Adventure to share past Adventures I have posted. I have new followers, and of course not every follower has been able to view all blogs. This Throwback blog will also allow me an opportunity to share special memories of my boys, Shadow and Buster who have passed. They began my life of wonderful adventures with my rescues, and will be furever in our hearts!!

Today’s Adventure is from three years ago at Winter Island Park in Salem, Massachusetts. I took this Adventure with Shadow and Wilma. We enjoyed playing on the beach, posing with the holiday decorations, wandering the trails, and exploring the Fort. Looking at this old blog I had a flashback of how Wilma always used to get down low waiting for Shadow to return if he was in the water or far away…always ready to pounce and play. Special memories of this pair! I will have to return to Winter Island at some point in the future. Below you will see two photo highlights, and you can also click below to see the full original blog.

Today’s Adventure is a Throwback Adventure of a Throwback Adventure (haha) as Shadow, Buster and I Adventured to Philippe Park before I started this blog. This Adventure took place in Safety Harbor, Florida back in 2010 when we resided in Tampa. I remember loving this Adventure, exploring, sinking in mud, and posing for Christmas photos! I have attached two photographs below, and will also list the link if you want to see and read more about this sunny Adventure.

Today’s photograph is another photograph from our recent trip to Camden, Maine. I had not blogged about it as I had somewhat recently, but still took many photographs in this gorgeous little town. This photograph highlights the coastal beauty of Camden, as they pose by the sea. Here they are Wilma and Gus:
