Mind And Heart by gardenfolk

Mind And Heart

Petting, scratching and
cuddling a dog could be
as soothing to the
mind and heart
as deep meditation
and almost as good
for the soul as prayer.
...Dean Koontz

My sweet 5 pound Sophie. She has been glued to my side this week.
We all barely survived the first week of the roofing project! They have made quite a bit of progress and will be back on Monday for another week. It will be nice to have a little two day break from the noise.

Nice on Black.
I love the words, how true they are and a sweet capture of Sophie :)

Lovely capture and Sophie is the cutest.

What a beauty!

@mbrutus Thank you for stopping by! Yes, I have a black teacup Schnauzer that turned 11 on Father's Day! Sophie was here way before Katniss. But, they are good friends. I do post a photo of Sophie Belle once a month. She is harder to photograph with her being black with dark eyes. Katniss is more photogenic with her interesting markings and green eyes. :)

Lovely shot. Great edit.

@hermann Thank you so much, Sally!

@fayefaye Many thanks, Faye! Yes she is!

@radiogirl Katniss and Sophie are great friends! They play together. It probably works because the cat is over twice the size of Sophie! :)

@pamknowler Sophie Belle says a Woof Hello to Finley and George! :)

@kgolab @farmreporter @deborah63 @madeinnl @mittens @edorreandresen

Thank you so much! I call Katniss and Sophie "Beauty and Cutie." Sophie gets accolades when ever I take her out because she is so petite. Funny, because I may have one of the smallest dogs and one of the largest cat breeds...Maine Coon (the gentle giant). :)

@onewing @ziggy77 @henrir @ludwigsdiana

Sophie AND Katniss will be very happy when the roofers are done! Sophie handles the noise better than Katniss does. Katniss slinks around looking for cover and is wide eyed in terror...poor thing! While Sophie will curl up next to me and figures I will keep her safe.

@seattlite Thank you, Gloria!

@sarahlth It did turn out looking like a painting. I used picmonkey and it changed the look. Thank you! :)

@tonygig Thank you, Tony! Can you imagine Sophie standing next to your giant schnauzer, Aggie! Haha!

@wendyfrost Thank you, Wendy! I call Katniss "beauty" and Sophie is "cutie." :)
August 19th, 2018  
@suzanne234 Thanks so much, Suzanne! Sophie is pretty adorable! :)

@joemuli Many thanks, Joe! Sophie is my 5 pound bundle of love! :)
August 19th, 2018  
@haskar Thanks so much! Sophie is my "cutie" and Katniss is my "beauty." :)
August 19th, 2018  
Wishing you all the best with that roofing project! Sweet dog.
August 19th, 2018  
@casablanca Thank you! Probably one more week to go! We might all need a bit of Xanax! Haha!
August 19th, 2018  
great character shot!
August 19th, 2018  
Beautiful portrait of the lovely Sophie. Love the edit.
August 19th, 2018  
AW SWEET SOPHIE!! Love her colors.
August 19th, 2018  
@gardenfolk Well, this photo is lovely. But Katniss is definitely a superstar. Definitely, the Christi Brinkley of the cat world.
August 21st, 2018  
@mbrutus Awwww...thanks! And, I went to Paul Revere Jr. High School with Christi Brinkley but she didn't graduate from there because she was discovered while on vacation in Europe. I never met her but did meet her brother one or twice. :)
August 21st, 2018  
Wow. You've been surrounded by glamour and royalty.
