Scooby Doo and Mindy Too

Scooby Doo says,


"Rood Runday Rafternoon!"





Mindy Peaches says....


Picture
"Ditto!"





Picture

Here,
sit a spell on this here bench in the shade.

If you don't mind, I'd like to talk about
Mindy Peaches.

Picture



Mindy Peaches  is
9 years old
and she is blind.

She went blind at the age of 7.

You can read about it here.

Picture

You can't tell right away that Mindy's blind.

She's a Beagle though.

A Beagle's life is their nose
and they are constantly sniff, sniff, sniffing, nose to the ground.

Constantly.

Picture



Mindy used to be on a real long chain where she could roam the driveway,
shop,
barn
and partially into a cornfield.

Here, she's burying one of her chew toys by Tim's shop.



Picture

But then she would also do this.



And dat not good.



Dat gets doggie kerplunked.

And we did not want our Mindy to get kerplunked.
So,
 
What to do? What to do? What to do?

Picture



Well,

we built a nice picket fence around the yard so Mindy could be safe and never have a near miss with a car again.

Picture



And then we kept building fence
 


and building fence...





Until she had an acre and a half to frolic in, out of harm's way.
Picture





We even left a 10 foot buffer strip around the property full of tall grasses and weeds....

Picture


so that she can feel like she's in
The Great Beagle Wild.

Roar.
I mean woof.

Picture


And we started a large brush pile

so that little critters can hibernate in there....

Picture


and all those little critter smells would gives hours of sniffing enjoyment to a nose sniffing Beagle.





There's plenty of shade to run around in...
Picture






And sun


to roll in.

Picture



When Mindy gets bored being in the field,

which is often,

she can freely meander up to the house and yard.

Picture




And she stays safe here because of this sign on the front gate.

Picture


If she doesn't want to come in the house or hang in the yard, she can freely snooze away in the summer kitchen.

But most of the time,
all Mindy Peaches wants
is to break free of the expensive (for us)
acre and a half playground.
Picture




And beg to be on the chain so she can go stare longingly at freedom.


And ponder ways to break free.

Silly doggie.






Well, thanks for listening to

Mindy's Playground Story!!!

In closing, Ima show you a random peony picture.

Okay kiddos, hope everyone had a great weekend!!!! 
Have a nice evening...talk at ya soon!!!
