The Great Adventures of Molly


I'd like for you to meet Molly. This is when we brought her home several months ago. After we lost Foxy to cancer, our home was quiet and lonely so after some time passed we decided it would be a good idea to find another happy person to add back into our lives. Molly turned out to be that perfect person. 

She has had many adventures while growing up. This summer has been packed full of them!
Snickers loves her and we find her very entertaining. This pic is from her first vacation road trip to Ruidoso New Mexico. She thought it was fabulous but doesn't really approve of this thing called traveling in a car.


Molly just being cute 


Molly likes living at our house and loves us very much but this summer some things started going wrong and while she still loves us very much she's discovered some problems with this particular castle. She finds guarding it is an extensive job and great dangers lie about everywhere. She is never sure where or when attackers may come from next; you see everything was going fine until these marauders who claimed to be roofers appeared and just brazenly attacked the roof. They tore at the shingles and launched them off the roof. They were trying to gain entrance thru the roof! This cannot be tolerated. No marauders on her watch! It took all day of frenzied barking to get them to leave. After a few weeks of keeping a wary eye on the roof and just when she thought she had the perimeter secured, suddenly new marauders who claimed to be stucco repairmen appeared. They began tearing the outside walls off! This is just unbelievably bold! She had to run from one room to another for they were actually circling the house. More frenzied barking and she chased them off after a full day of this. She thought, that had done it, but no! They returned a week later to "supposedly' paint the stucco but they once again circled the house for a full day. She was exhausted by the end of the day but she did it! Once again she had chased off the enemy.


More time passed and she grew bigger. Then this area rug came into the house and it took some major convincing before she would believe that it was not in fact a monster cat creature coming to eat her!




Things remained calm for a time but then last night the kiddo was working late in his office which is across the hall from our room. When he left to go to his room she was full asleep and awoke thinking there was an intruder, she charged at the door barking and....slammed right into it head first! Ooof, she said, paused and commenced barking until we could prove to her it was only the kiddo in the house. She was restless the rest of the night and sure enough she was right, there were more attackers on the way in the form of fire breathing dragons who appeared early this morning.  


She tried chasing them off.... but they just kept coming...
(I have to apologize for the last bit of the video below, my camera was still on while I was trying to get Molly to calm her down and I cannot for the life of me edit it! Th balloon did not actually fall over! )



You can hear the big woosh noise the balloons make when they are firing the gas up to lift the balloon higher. Which is why Molly feels these just must be fire breathing dragons!


Molly considers this castle too difficult to guard and finds that she cannot rest for even a moment......


That's my Molly and how we adore her! Our family is complete once again.
