Pets Add Life, and Laughter, and Giggles, and Smiles.

Everyone that reads this blog has no doubt that Leroy and Sherman add many things to my life.  From laughter, to comfort, to humor, to amazing memories, these dogs make my life awesome.

I’m the type of person who needs laughter in my life. Laughter keeps me going and if I can’t find humor in everyday life then what’s the point?

Having Leroy in my life provides me with the majority of that laughter and humor and as long as he is in my life I can guarantee that a day won’t go by without a few good chuckles for me and for my family.

Take the other day for example when the whole family was sitting on the couch watching a movie and about 1/2 way into the movie here comes Leroy, who had just woke up from his nap, bounding into the family room.

He comes in all happy and go lucky swinging his tail a mile a minute knocking over all of our drinks that were sitting on the coffee table. Then proceeds to go around to each one of us and stick his big nose in all of our faces.

What ya doin?

After he made his rounds he scoped out the seating arrangements on the couch and then jumped up on the only available spot left.

He completely destroyed his area of the couch as he tried to make his spot all nice and cozy. You see, Leroy gets in fights with the couch cushions. He digs and paws at them until he can get them in the perfect spot, which is quite a sight to see a 150 pound dog assaulting a couch.

In this case we had to pause the movie, first, because we had to clean up the spilled pop that his tail knocked over and second, because the couch was violently shaking which was making it difficult to see the movie and third, because we all just couldn’t stop staring at him in disbelief of the assault he was inflicting on our couch.

“Should we help him?” Gracie asked.

‘Absolutely not, this is better than watching the movie.” Bobby responded.

Which made us all let out a chuckle.

So after about 10 minutes of assaulting the couch Leroy finally got the cushions the way he wanted them, which was mostly on the floor, and we could all go back to watching our movie……………until he decided it was time to bark at the dogs in the movie.

I guess you could, at the very least, say that he provided us with an entertaining and humorous intermission of our movie.

I'm thinking we need a movie with Leroy and the couch! I can just picture him with all his insanity as he weaves his path of destruction through the house!

That must have been so funny, well not the spilled drinks bit - you must have massive sofas in your house to fit the whole family including the dogs?

Wags to all,

Your pal Snoopy :)

I have to say that for entertainment, Mango had it over Dexter. He, too, would worry over getting his sleeping places just right with several false starts and knocking about of furniture in the process. Dexter is much more controlled and deliberate.
