They're Laughing At Me

I'm not being overly sensitive.  I have proof that they're laughing at me.  I try not to take it personally.  I tell myself that they're laughing with me, not at me.  But the problem is, I wasn't laughing.

You see, it all started when we were out in the backyard.  The dogs were doing their thing - sniffing around, playing, and basically just having a good time.  I was sitting on the deck and taking pictures.  I was thinking about how much I loved each and every one of them, and how much I would miss them when they were gone.  I thought about how happy they were and how hard it would be for them to leave and go somewhere new.  And I started explaining to them about how they were going to be adopted, and how they would have wonderful new lives.  And I said that I knew they would miss me... and then I saw their expressions.  The more I talked about them leaving, the happier they looked.  And by the end, when I said they would miss me, they started outright laughing at me!
Benny thought it was the funniest conversation ever.

Cooper did not seem worried about missing me.

I have such inconsiderate foster dogs.  Happy, but inconsiderate of their foster mom's feelings.  I hope they show a little more respect when they're adopted and their new families try to have a serious conversation with them.

Hi Y'all,

They stole a piece of your heart to carry with them. They hope they are going to a place where the hand to dog ratio has increased, but they'll keep a piece of your heart with them.

Y'all come by now,
Hawk aka BrownDog

I think they're laughing because they KNOW they have it made in the shade there, and they don't believe they're going anywhere! Ziggy may have a plan...

Happy, Waggin' Tails, FUREVER!
Stumpy and me

Well you KNOW what I think about Ziggy's Plan to STAY.. So I have to totally agree with Stumpy.

Either that or somebuddy had some bad GAS..

How rude eh? Maybe they were just overjoyed at the thought that maybe you loved them enough that they could stay??

Yea we go with the crowd Ziggy has a very big plan. I think the rest are just so happy to have a fun place to be that they can't get the smiles off their faces!
