Favorite Video Friday – Mud Bath Mayhem
I don’t know about you guys, but here at Casa del Mel spring has really started to take hold. Although I still have tons of snow in the front yard, the sun-drenched backyard is almost snow free. That means we have mud in abundance.
Fortunately, the worst of the mud appears only as mud prints in my house. Neither Daisy or Maggie like to roll in. Thank goodness!
It appears Harley, the Labrador retriever, is quite the opposite. I can hardly imagine the horror of having to clean a dog after this. God bless his owner!
Hope you have a lovely Friday and Easter weekend!
Favorite Video Friday-Clean sheet craziness
You know that feeling when you slide into bed after putting on a fresh set of clean sheets? Yeah. That. 🙂
Happy Friday everyone!
Favorite Video Friday – Sheltie Snow Fun
I don’t know how the weather has been in your neck of the woods, but here in Minnesota the temps have been unusually warm. 40’s and 50’s seem to be the norm right now.
If you’re a Sheltie, that is not good news. You want chilly weather with lots of snow. You want to stick your nose in that cold, wet stuff and walk around with it on your nose. You want to chase your siblings around the yard and kick up a little of that powder. You expect a few snowballs to follow you inside because they’re sticking to your fur.
But, so far those Sheltie desires have not been met. What’s a Sheltie to do? My recommendation is to watch a few videos featuring dogs and snow, at least until you can get some the real stuff yourself. That’s why we’re sharing an awesome Sheltie snow video this week. 🙂
Enjoy!
P.S. Rumor has it that we may get some colder weather next week, and possibly, some snow.

Favorite Video Friday – Here he comes! Super Pom!
I admit it. I have no story to preface this week’s favorite video pick other than it made me laugh.
It’s hard not to smile watching those cute little legs running as fast as they can. The music makes the video too. I mean, all this dog needs is a cape and a mask! Right?
Happy Friday everyone!
Favorite Video Friday – Water balloon playground
There is no rhyme or reason as to why I chose this week’s Favorite Friday video other than it is very cute. And, what could be cuter than a puppy playing with water balloons?
Cosmo is adorable and sweet. I love his tenacity and curiosity.
If you needed a positive pick me up this morning. This video is it.
Happy Friday everyone!
Favorite Video Friday – Getting your ya-yas out
Don’t you ever feel like you just have to get it all out?
Maybe you’ve had a bad day. Or, maybe you worked really hard all week and just need to get your ya-yas out. Or maybe, you’ve felt cooped up all week and just really need to let loose.
Either way, when that moment comes and you want to carry on and shake it all off? Do it.
Not sure how to do it? Watch Candy the English Bulldog. She’s got the right idea. 🙂
Happy Friday everyone!
Favorite Video Friday – Doberman in Slo Mo
I don’t really know why I love today’s video that much.
Maybe it’s the feeling of freedom I get when watching this dog run and play.
Or, maybe it’s the wide open space and empty beach that appeals to me.
Or, maybe it’s seeing a Doberman in its natural state (no docked tail or ears) that makes it appealing.
Either way, this video is worth watching just for the happiness it evokes. I hope you enjoy it.
Happy Friday everyone!
Favorite Video Friday – The last hurrah to summer
In Minnesota, summer begins on Memorial Day and ends on Labor Day.
I don’t mean that we ignore the technical dates that signify the beginning and end of summer (i.e., June 21 for the summer solstice and September 22 for the fall equinox), but we consider the start and end of summer to be when our lakes officially open and close (i.e., Memorial Day and Labor Day).
So if we go by Minnesota time standards, summer ends this long Labor Day weekend. Our magnificent and highly-attended state fair ends on Labor Day, most kids head back to school the day after Labor Day, and the outdoor pools and lakes close on Monday.
That’s why so many of us are taking the time to get in that last hurrah. That last moment to camp before the kids get back to school, or to hit the fair before it ends, or to get in that last day at the lake before it closes down.
Dogs and owners will likely be taking advantage of this time too. We all want to give them that last chance to go for a swim before the cold weather hits (although technically, that could be several weeks away). There is even a local business who opens their pool to dogs at the end of the season . It’s the last hurrah of summer.
That’s why I thought it appropriate we celebrate this Labor Day weekend with a little pool time. The last hurrah to summer.
Have a happy and safe Labor Day everyone! 🙂
Favorite Video Friday – Slow Motion Dog Frisbee
I may have mentioned it before, but I love slow motion videos, especially slow motion dog videos. I came across today’s Favorite Friday video selection a week ago and have watched it a few times now. It is so cool to see a dog catching frisbee in slow motion, but what makes this one especially fascinating is that it is REALLY slowed down. You can see every twist of the body and every movement of the paws. It really is beauty in motion.
I don’t know the dog’s name, but man is he/she cool! I wonder if he/she competes? Maybe so. 🙂
I hope you enjoy the video as much as I did.
Happy Friday everyone!
