When I tried to get in a little quiet time in the hot tub before a very busy day, the doggies joined me. Morrie tried to join in but then deserted for a little Zen time of his own.

The Evidence
What happens when you leave an unprotected bag of Cheetos lying around at my house?
After:
If you want a hint of how that turned-inside-out and licked clean (but formerly half-full) Cheetos bag might have wound up in the pool, check out the post linked below:
And here is evidence of previous infractions:
Holy Tearer (For Forgottenman, who requested another Zoe post)
And, for a survey course in Zoe terrorism, check out this last blog:
Zoe Wins the War
I sent this video to Forgottenman today and he insisted I had to put it on Youtube and put a link on my blog. I always mind, so here it is. She was about a month and a half old when I recorded this big event.
More Proof of Rain
Zoe was curled all snug in her bed instead of out ripping
up my garden and terrorizing her brothers!
State of Zoe: Zoe’s Latest!!!!
I set out the money for my massage guy on the coffee table as I’ve done a hundred times. Fifteen minutes later, I heard a commotion in the guest bedroom. This is what I found:
State of Zoe: New Duds
When last we saw Zoe, she was in a. funny little outfit designed by her mother to keep her from continuing to pull out the stitches from her spaying. What a dilemma. Vet office closed, computer tech on the way, what was a mom to do? I called Zoe’s groomer who had to pass my house anyway on his daily drive back from his business in Ajijic to Guadalajara, where he lives, so I asked him to bring a cone, hoping it would keep her from totally disemboweling herself. You saw the result which I will duplicate at the end of this blog, but yesterday I took Zoe to the vet to have her check her out and she had a better solution to the problem. Here is thoroughly modern Zoe, transformed from sunbonnet girl to a stylish gym suit model. She’s soooo cute and no more nibbling at her stitches. Here is Zoe now: 
She has no objection to her new attire. Not so with Mom’s former solution to the problem:
Which look do you prefer? Luis, the computer tech guy who was one of three of us needed to pin her down to clothe her in her former protective attire said she looked like something from “Little House on the Prairie.”

State of Zoe: Enjoying her Pain Meds
But Zoe was sacked out on the bathroom rug where she had gone to keep Mom company while taking a shower.
In case you don’t know, Zoe was spayed yesterday afternoon. Mom was worried, but Zoe seems to have come through it with flying colors. The vet said Just as she was giving her the shot to anesthetize her, that Zoe reached up and licked her on the face! She had a fan club by the time I picked her up 5 hours later.
Zoe Helps Mom Swim
I think I showed this one before, but can’t resist. I think her tongue wasn’t out in the last one.
Zoe’s never been outside when I’ve been swimming before, so she kept me company. And did a little gardening at the same time. While we were conversing, I held her for awhile and dipped her in the pool, which seemed not to bother her at all. I then held my hands under her and she swam a couple of strokes to the edge of the pool and pulled herself out. I helped a bit. She was too young before but soon I want to try her for a bit longer distance to be sure she knows how to get out of the pool in an emergency. I don’t leave her out in that area when I’m gone––only when I’m here within eyeshot and she’s with the older dogs. She now sometimes sleeps with them in “their” room as well.
