Jehovah Shalom, the Lord is Peace (Judges 6:24)
LS : The monkey wrenches are still around. But they have been on frequent long peanut breaks. I'm thankful for that. A breather for me and some peace too. Having inner peace makes us see things in better perspective, doesn't it? I'm thankful for that.
Have I said how thankful I am for my dog? I think I have. Sometimes her funny and mischievous antics can be a stress reliever, depending on how you look at it. LOL.
A few days ago, I was walking out of my bedroom when I stumbled upon Happy trying to paw at some pastries on the dining table. My first reaction was to reprimand her.
But the guilty look on her face plus the hilarious sight of her with two paws on the table and two back legs stretched to the max on the dining chair made me tried so hard not to laugh.
That wouldn't do, for she has to learn that she can't get away with that. So after reprimanding her, I gave her a treat. And then I had a good laugh. Thanks Happy, for some light moments.
Happy :This is NOT ME in the picture below.
But I was caught in the same situation few days ago.
Attempting to paw at some pastries. On the dining table. With my two front paws in exactly the same way and my two hind legs on the chair...Can you picture it?
I was just a paw away from them when LS walked out from the bedroom. I was bracing for her famous "Who's a naughty girl?" but instead, she said "Feeling hungry, Happy?"
I know I've just turned 6 few months back and as we get older, we tend to lose a bit of our hearing. But do we start hearing things too?
Ok, LS did reprimand me but she also gave me a cream puff after that. Yummy! Yummy! Yummy!
So...I'm thankful that LS was being magnanimous about it. Have you ever tried to reach the dining table? Did you succeed?
Hope everyone is having a thankful time.

LS: You are such a wonderful mom to Happy. I love you. Happy: Caught you didn't she?? But, then she gave you a yummy treat, love on her for that. Big hugs to you both.
thank you for your prayers for me and hubby. I am so thankful I was able to find christian friends thru thankful thursday.
You are a blessing!
Hi, Happy!
I am too short to do that but sure I'd love to try it!
Thankfully LS gave you a treat!
Kisses and hugs

Blessings LS...You are such a JOY!!
You definitely spoil that baby Happy! I didn't realize that Happy's 6 months only!?! I would have reprimanded...I have only 1 of the 5 that reaches on to the table, Chispita! The rest can't reach but because they see her try, they try also...so it's a definite no..no! She'll eat or take anything...even money...she ripped a 50 pesos once.
$5 gone like that! Happy...you better be thankful you have LS & she loves you so much! I agree you can take away our stress but you are so spoiled...cream puffs! WOW!
Hope you saw your BIG Butterfly! Just for you & LS! Thanks again for passing on the cool award..I have butterflies in my tummy & mind!
Thanks for blessing us with a chuckle once more! Enjoy your TT!

Man, you were close to getting those Pastries! Too bad your human Mom had to come in just then.
I usually take a flying leap right up onto the dining room table without the help of a chair, 'cause that just shocks the humans so much that it takes them a few seconds 'till they start telling me to get down again. In those few seconds, I can gobble up about 12 cookies, hee hee.

I'm glad the monkeys have been taking long peanut breaks. Hopefully they will start taking vacations to.
You were lucky to get a pastry Happy. My legs are to short to reach the table. I can't even see whats on the table.
Have a good weekend.
Love Ruby

Great story about you pup. Loved reading it... Hope you have a fantastic TT.
Yeah for the yummy cream puff Happy
~ Girl girl
My humans rarely catch me reaching for the dinner table - it's off limits to me :( Although I love to hang around below it, begging for morsels :p~
Great post! Such a cute picture!
She is so cute.
I can picture this! Our pups are so precious. Happy, I know you are a sweetheart.
Blessings!

What a cute picture. I don't have a dog, but I do have a cat that get's into all kinds of mischief. Pets are such a blessing to have.
Aww!Your dog looks so cute! By the way, what kind of pastries are those? They look yummy!!
Like they say Happy Timing is every thing. LOL Better luck next time. Thanks for dropping in.Did you see my new hair cut?

Hi Happy,
I an thankful that you are my friend. I can't reach the kitchen table or counters but give a chance to get on one of the chairs and nothing is safe form my jaws.
I've never had a cream puff but the Mommy does give me a donut hole once in a while.
Can't wait to see your flower pictures.

I kind of like her, too...
Abby xxxooo
Loved your post! Happy Thankful Thursday!
What a great idea to have a thanksful Thursday. You have so much to be greatful for! We should all stop and count our blessings. Hurray that you got a creme puff!
Hugs, Kodak
Whenever I catch my dogs in something they shouldn't do, I get this "Oh, am I not supposed to be doing this?"
Those 4-legged furries are such a joy in my life, too. Thanks for sharing!
Oh we can sympathize with you Happy. Anything on the table always looks so taste we just can't help ourselves.
Abby & Rosie
Pets are the best stress relievers. It is always a blessing to have them around. You can't blame Happy for wanting a treat nor you for giving it.
Happy: I have never been able to get onto a dining room chair. Maybe I will have to think about it if I ever smell treats on the table.
We're so glad that you ended up with a treat, Happy! I've never been a countersurfer but Mitch has snitched food a couple of times and he wasn't fortunate enough to get a treat like you!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Too cute! I, myself, have never been caught with my hand in the cookie jar. No, not me. I do not have dogs. For me it is my cat. This morning she was on my lap with her face rubbing mine and just purring. Oh, such love. Where would we be without them!
Your post makes me smile as usual :) Love this cute photo. LS, thank God for Happy and the cheers she brings into your life. Happy, you have such a wonderful mom. Glad you enjoy your treat. Happy Thankful Thursday!
Sorry I have not visited your blog in awhile Serendipity. This is a really cute photo! I love it. I have a friend who gives me puppy dog looks to try to get his way. My 10 year old son has also learned to do this too!
I was thankful for toys and treats today!
But a tasty baked good such as woo deskhribed would be furry good too!
Hugz&Khysses,

You might try and get that plastic again if you get treats afterward..

Hi Happy,
I am glad you did not get reprimanded... Mom caught Hershey doing the same thing 2 weeks ago. She was trying to steal the ham that mom was preparing for breakfast!
Thanks for stopping by and for sharing in TT. Be blessed
What a blessing to have a dog like Happy that makes you smile. I'm sure that you are a blessing to Happy as well. Thanks for the visit in my blog. Bless you!

Cute. Loved it.
I don't think Snoop ever reached the table, Diamond is on the table, she doesn't have to reach at all!
how adorable! be blessed... always! ♥
Almost there Happy! I always try, but never succeed. Never give up tho!
Delightful post!
Hi, Little Pip nearly pushed me out of the way to see you, or may be he wanted to see the sweets. He would pinch them too if he could.
hello happy. thanks so much for visitng me on my mama's blog. i a, so glad we are now new woofie friends here in doggie bloggieland.
When Penny was about six months old we left a whole packet of cellophane-wrapped sweet biscuits in the middle of a large kitchen table and went off to church.
When we arrived home, about an hour later, the packet was on the floor, empty.
Perhaps the fact that we were at church allowed a miracle to happen for Penny, because there seemed to be no way a little puppy could get onto that table - no chairs to leap from, no bench nearby.
It has remained a mystery.
She wasn't given any dinner that evening.
The picture is too cute. It reminds me of my son when he sneaks food and thinks that I am not watching.
This reminds me of when I baked a cake and frosted it before Bible study one night. I left it on the kitchen island only to return and see a lopsided cake with part of it gnawed out on the end. The culprit? Our great dane/lab, Frankie. What can I say? He loves cake. Couldn't get mad either. Thanks for stopping by; God bless your week.
Dogs are indeed stress-relievers, mood improvers, and just all-around great companions. I've said more than once that dogs are our four-legged unconditional love role models...
Hi there Happy !
Mind we link you up ? (:
You are too funny! What a great post.
Thank you for visiting me! I hope you had a wonderful TT!!
Cute post. Have a blessed week!

Your little doggie is just ADORABLE! (I'm assuming that's her on your sidebar?) She's SOOOO PRETTY!
Thank you for stopping by my blog.
Cute picture of the pup.
What a cutie! How can you resist her when she wants something?!
I was talking to Happy, btw. ;)

I LOVE to paw at things on the dining room table!
Cute story and cute picture.

Love your post. Blessings from Costa Rica
Chow Chow tries a few times to reach the dining table too by standing on his hind legs. Too bad for him, we always say NO!
I bet Chow Chow will keep on trying and it would be easier for him when he gets bigger! Hope Happy is a much better-behaved doggy than Chow Chow. :)
Hi Happy,
I love the picture of you and the treats...oops! I forgot - that wasn't you! :)
Thank you for the lovely comment on my website.
Please do come back and leave your photo on my guestbook when you have a moment!
Thank you!
Slobbers,

Oh Happy! Your mom is so nice! Sometimes - always? - it's just better to let the no-nos pass and turn them into yes-yeses. Keeps the house peaceful.
As for me, I don't have to stretch to get stuff off the table. I'm so tall I could just paw stuff off. But I prefer to just put my chin on the table and then I get fed just about anything I want!
Love you and your Mom.

Happy
A cream puff?? You lucky dog! I wish I could reach the good food on the table! I'm jealous.

Yummy! I love sharing Dad's pastries when he has a latte. We've been doing a lot of that lately as he insists on sitting outside in the cold to get my new sister accustomed to traffic and people in the town. It's no big deal if pastries are involved - I am thankful for pastries.

Hummm... having a dog really is like havin kids. :)
Hi LS, I know what you mean about the happiness your little dog can bring. At unexpected times they do something that just lights up the day.
Happy, I sorry you got caught but I can't believe your mom went ahead and gave you a pastry! YUM! Yes, I've gotten things off the table. If mom leaves them too close to the edge I can s..t..r..e..a..t..c..h and det them sometimes!
Barklove,
Rusty
