dogs and doggie toys
Although Zoë has her own stuffed doggie, it’s not nearly half as interesting as Cady’s basket of toys and her bowls of dog food and water. It’s almost like Zoë has a radar on when we have our heads turned, and she starts the sprint to these items. She will seriously look up at us from the floor, make eye contact, tuck her head back down, and crawl with determination towards them. As for the dog toys, we have relinqueshed ourselves to the fact that it will happen, and luckily her favorite one is one that Cady never liked. As for the dog bowls, we just have them out at various times throughout the day, and if by chance she samples some of Cady’s feast, we’ve confirmed via google- she’ll be fine! I never thought I would find myself comfortable enough to say something like that!
How sweet of Cady to share her food & toys with Zoe! Good for you & Marshall, never too soon to start picking your battles. ; )
