The Ruby Rose Report: Mother's Day

 



I woke up this morning and learned it was Mother’s Day. 


Dogs don’t pay attention to the human calendar. There are a lot of words and numbers, but all we care about is that today is today.


Still, knowing it was a day to honor moms made me feel bad. I should have gotten something. But, Mommy told me, I give her more than anyone else could.


She said every morning I make her feel safe when she wakes up and I am snuggled against her. I help her fall asleep too by being in the same position so she can stroke me until she becomes sleepy. (In the interim I get out of bed and hit a couple of local bars. Little dogs do need to unwind. )


She said I never let her feel alone because I am always following her around.


Momma said she never feels alone because wherever she goes I am there.


Mommy said that she spent almost 30 years feeding humans but none of them have made her feel appreciative the way I have. I guess that takes away the tedium of meal time for her. 


And there has never been a soul who has been happier to see her come home than her dogs. She doesn’t go out often now but I still make her feel like she just came home from war when she does. 


I keep her lap warm, and when she is feeling down I pick her up with 1,000 kisses. 


And she never feels alone and always feels loved. 


I guess I do give her a lot and not just on Mother's Day but every day.


Because mom’s don't need cards, or gifts, just unconditional love and companionship.  


And luckily for the non-working groups dogs it all all free

Poetry Thursday

 

 Today is Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy at

 Two Spoiled Cats




You bought a new coat?

Put it on the porch

An anchor for the boat?

Put it on the porch

You need the note I wrote?

I put it on the porch

You need the oats for the goat?

Look on the porch



In our house the closet is full

We can’t open the door no matter how much we pull

We have books stacked up on the window sill

The cabinets are so full opening the door could kill


Timmy could’t find his ball

It was lost on the porch

Sally lost her favorite doll

Somewhere on the porch

Martha wanted to make a call

But someone left the phone on the porch

Grandpa couldn’t find his alcohol

It was stored somewhere on the porch


It was so full no one could shut the window 

Nothing to keep out the rain or snow

Nothing to stop when the wind does blow

Cold and wet was the status quo.  


Sissy said she was cold and needed a blanket warm

But it was on the porch

 Marty wanted an umbrella for the storm

But it was on the porch

Uncle Joe needed his drugs to perform

But could not find them on the porch

And no one had see Uncle Norm

Since he climbed out on the porch


Until one day the overstuffed porch fell

And the family belongings were scattered from heaven to hell

And now there is nothing left to tell

Because the family now had nothing but a hole in the wall where they did dwell,

Monday Question:




 How many vets have your parents taken their pets in the last 25 years and if they left the practice?

You don't need to count emergency vets



Ruby's Answer

Norton Animal Hospital: Left because of long wait and chaotic waiting room.

Bridgewater Animal Hospital: Left because there were too many clientele and little personal attention.

Middleboro Animal Clinic: Great vet but he retired

Raynham Small Animal Clinic: Vet bragged about Millie Bush's vet, picked up Foley by her back legs to examine her, insisted on dental work which was booked eight months out.

Rayham Aniaml Hospital: The worst. My parents brought their three year old Papillon Jax to them. Jax was in terrible pain. The doctor said it was a pinched nerve. Three days later Jax went to the Bridge. A judge found the vet negligent but my parents lost on appeal to the lying jerkface.,

Dighton Animal Clinic: A very nice doctor but she only worked part time and at a hospital the rest of the time

Taunton Animal Hospital: Been then for eight years and so far are happy with the vet and staff
