Let the flags fly for Memorial Day today. Remember the true meaning of this day as you are celebrating the holiday with your family and friends. Memorial Day is to celebrate those who died in active military service. The life we have in the USA is because of the people and dogs in the military who defend our freedom.
Don’t forget to be kind, and let a few things “fall” from the grill for your furry friends. They will appreciate it. If you are celebrating with senior family members, don’t be offended if they happen to doze off. It is normal. Simply sit back and enjoy the grin on their face while they snooze.
On another note, one week from today is the start of Multiple Pet Mania. If you haven’t grabbed the badge yet, what are you waiting for? The month long event with fun and prizes kicks off with the multiple pet training blog hop on June 1 as well as the photo contest which will run through June 26th, with the winners announced on Multiple Pet Day, June 30th.

I will remember all our heroes today… the men, the women, the dogs and the horses…. they all where there to bring freedom to us…
Have a good Memorial Day too :o)
Now if I could just get someone to let me off my leash, my freedom would be all set! Have a good one!
Thanks to all of those who gave their lives so we can have our freedom. And to all the troops that protect us today. And to all the puppies that are just as cute as can be in their red, white and blue!
All the military dogs too! Now I need to figure out how to get off leash freedom and life will be perfect!
Adorable gang! Have a nice day guys.

Thanks π
Love Katie taking a snooze on the hat – Happy Memorial Day to all our Military
She finds the photo thing extremely boring but the hat at least keeps her head up!
remembering the dogs, horses, men and women and their families who have and are serving our country! May we never again bar-b-que or scewer people due to war and emjoy our backyard grilling instead.
Exactly! The only war I want to fight is against my ridiculous cat bro Bert and it is a life long battle!
Beautiful and fun Memorial Day photo. Have a great day and have a safe trip to blogpaws.
Thank you. We can’t wait to hit the road tomorrow.
Well, mom finally finished the post she wanted to write for about two months, and now realizes she should save it for Mult-Pet Mania! I’m sure she’ll come up with something else, I hope! You girls are so patriotic, and that’s great considering that you weren’t born here, but that’s okay! Love Dolly
Bailie is “made in the USA”, so we have to support her you know. Maybe your mom can come up with another post for now and use the one for the Multiple Pet Mania. I would think with the three of you there has to be lots to write about.
Happy Memorial Day sweet friends!
Happy Memorial Day to you all!
You guys look great, have a fabulous day!
Thanks, you too!
We watched some specials on TV last night about Memorial Day. one was sad. It was about Dover, DE and how the protocol for fallen military return to the U.S, and the care given to the families. The other was the Memorial Day special done yearly on PBS. Happy Memorial Day Emma, Bailie, and napping Katie! Oh, and your mom too! XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
Those kind of shows are really interesting but can also be real downers. Fire up the grill and let some sausages roll off onto the floor to cheer things up! Happy Memorial Day!
Happy Memorial Day! We love our military members and thank them so much!
Happy Memorial Day to you too. Can’t wait to see you all! When do you arrive? Wed or Thurs?
Flags are flying high here in Doodleville. Enjoy all that falls from the grill today!
We always do, we always do!
We are remembering the military today and we are also glad that our Mama didn’t find any silly ears for us to wear…..but she loves the ones your wearing!!
Smileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
No “ears”, it is our patriotic gear. We enjoy wearing fun stuff, it adds to the occasion. Happy Memorial Day!
fabulous photos and wonderful reminder!
Thank you!
We remember! I love the picture of you and your sisters! <3 Multi pet month sounds fun!
Thanks, we had some fun with it. Hope to see you in Multi Pet Mania with the two girls.
Have a happy Memorial Day
Lily & Edward
Same to you guys!
we are remembering ALL soldiers: human, canine & equine.
y’all look adorable, as always. enjoy your day!
We aren’t horse folks, so we always forget about the horses. Now we remember.
Happy Memorial Day!
Hope you are enjoying the holiday.
Happy Memorial Day!
Same to you guys.
Happy Day Emma! The sun was shining this morning and that put our mom in SUCH a great mood. But then in the afternoon we were out walking in the park and thunder and lightning rolled in.. we got home safe and sound! Have a great day with your family!! your doodle friend Dash
Today was a cloud sun mix, yesterday it rained the entire day, yuck!
Just be careful not to let anything fall that could do a number on your pups’ digestive systems π
On a more serious note, I am very grateful for my hubby having returned safe & sound from each of his military deployments to war zones.
That is definitely something to be grateful for. Scary times! Mom learned ages ago with her first dog about giving things to her from the grill. We are careful about it if it happens at all.
What a great tribute to our fallen soldiers.
Millie & Walter
We like the flags π
It’s great to remember why we are celebrating the holidays that we do. I hope you had a great memorial day. I can’t wait until the multiple pets hop starts!!! So looking forward to that!
α¦ husky hugz α¦ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
Just a few more days, Monday to be exact. It should be real fun and you can enter the photo contest π
Hope you had a nice Memorial Day. We were at a cabin having a bit of downtime due to rain. π
Sometimes it is good to have rain as it forces you to do nothing. Sunday was that day for us.
