On yoga night, this little orphan was left on our doorstep.
Here he joined us for yoga, demonstrating what one of the evening’s yogis dubbed as “frog dog.” He is also quite accomplished at savasana. Though you can’t see it in the picture, he is solid black except for the tiniest splotch of white at the very tip of his tail. Last night he demonstrated another one of his amazing talents: yodeling.
Periodically through the night, we awoke to hear him serenading us with,
“Yep! Yep! Yep! Noooooooooooooooooooo! Nooooooooooooo! Nooooooooooo!”
Is there a kind soul out there willing to give a loving home to this sweet puppy? (Please? I’ve tried pawning him off on everybody and still no takers yet.)
I’ve raised two puppies in the last year. With Project Moo-Moo underway, I am all out of puppy time. This guy is really, really cute though! And he won’t cry sweetly serenade you in the evening if you share your bed with him.

In other news, a new family has moved in to the Angry Russian’s birdhouses. The Angry Russian transformed into the Very Delighted Russian when I showed him.
…and speaking of eggs, Kiki has dethroned P. Recious Rainbow and installed herself on The Nest as Kiki Queen Mother. Either she is delusional or it is very close to hatching time, because she’s not budging. Not even for food. Yesterday, after a tremendous amount of coaxing, begging, and singing on my part, she finally stood up enough for me to look at her eggs and see that no eggs had hatched just yet.
This was the song that finally got her up:
Kiki, Kiki you’re so pretty,
Let me see your eggs.
Kiki, Kiki you’re so pretty,
Stand up on your legs.
And! Here’s the melody for the first two lines…just in case you are ever faced with this situation and are in emergency need of a song:

And last, but not least, I’m still going flower crazy.

Love the dog picture. It looks like he found his zen through yoga.

He was totally zen during yoga. I wish I had recorded his yodeling. That was something.

Oh my! That dog is adorable. I’d take him in a heartbeat if we didn’t have an aggressive beagle. We aren’t adopting any more until our Pete lives out his life. Lovely flowers!

Thanks Maddie. Your description of Pete made me think of Cesar Millan mantra about “calm, submissive energy” in his pack.

ohh he’s very cute. Is he as jet black as he looks in that photo? Looks like our Zonda when she was a pup. And are you serious, someone left her at you door?
Love you kiki song and your flower pics!

He is very Lab-like with a hit of Pit. And I’m dead serious — some crazy woman left him here. 😛
But fortunately she came back and got him. He still needs his forever home.

I would so take that puppy in a heartbeat. Our landlord doesn’t allow pets, though. 😦 That’s one of the list of many reasons we can’t wait to move out & buy a house.
This is a wonderful post! Such an enchanting little soup of images, words, and song. 😀

May you get a house soon!
Thanks for the kind words. I love the image of this post dishing out enchanting soup. Bon appetite!

I can’t imagine somebody leaving a puppy on a random doorstep. 😦 This is just one more reason to own a home vs. rent an apartment. The dog sure looks sweet!

There wasn’t anything random about this doorstep or that someone.
He was a real cutie who just passed through.
