#WoofWednesday, Part One: Reilly And Halloween Costumes

That is all.

(The other two parts, Yehovah willing, will be posted as #ThrowbackThursday throwbacks to #WoofWednesday.).

With "Creative Shot" settings: wow; bienvenido a una observancia tardía del Día de Los Muertos.

And, yes, there are videos (titled "Reilly In On-Sale Halloween Costumes" and published on YouTube)—of which Reilly, not her "Mom-Mom" or "Momma"'s aide, is the focus (as "Momma" has to explain whenever cameraphobic "Mom-Mom" takes a picture or records a video of Reilly with her in it; and she doesn't think that the aide would mind, since Reilly is the focus.)

#WoofWednesday Preview: Still Working On "Roll Over", Camille In Regards To Treats & "Nasties", Etc..

1. Camille has essentially confirmed especially two matters: her preferred "roll over" location and her "I want it now!" attitude toward treats before she even sits or lays down, let alone rolls over!
2. With Camille, it's the "Camille or dentastick" approach as a reversal of "carrot and stick": try to, for example, protect her from getting her dentastick stolen by Reilly, face her wrath when she growls at you like she could snap at and/or bite you at any moment—despite that you're holding the dentastick to keep Reilly from getting it!
3. Even "Mom-Mom" is not safe from Cam's bad-itude: just minutes ago, Cam got herself into huge trouble for growling at "Mom-Mom" for trying to take "a little piece of tar" from her—and "Auntie Nicole" thought that Camille was growling at her cousin for trying to take a treat!
4. As for when "Mom-Mom" found some on-sale Halloween costumes while she was shopping for her "granddogters", Camille was having none of that, either—she went right into her crate to hide!—whereas Reilly tolerated the costumes and even, albe begrudgingly, allowed herself to be photographed and videographed in costume! 

#ScarySunday: Not Even Reilly And "Mom-Mom" Are Safe From a UTI-Crankified Camille

To make a long story short for now:

1. Camille's persistent need to "peedy" did turn out to be another UTI ☹.
2. Since the vet's office was closed, Camille (and "Mom-Mom" and "Mimi") had to spend three hours in an ER for pets (and a significant chunk of those hours was waiting time as well as trying to get a urine sample from Camille.)
3. She had to have an ultrasound to rule out any other issues—and at least she had only a UTI (as compared to, for example, a kidney stone).
4. She was loved by all of the medical personal and received a lot of attention from them.
5. When she came home and Reilly went to greet her as well as try to jealously get attention, she was not having any of it—she growled quite severely at Reilly and pawed her, and Reilly became afraid!
6. She also growled a little at "Mom-Mom" when "Mom-Mom" went to take her "peedy" instead of having a cold-affected "Mimi" take her, although she conceded and let "Mom-Mom" take her.

#ThrowbackThursday: Camille Gets "Auntie Nicole" In Trouble For Not Getting "Mom-Mom" Scratched!

Did "Auntie Nicole" nonetheless get to demonstrate how much Camille loves her "num-nums" and keep "Mom-Mom" from getting scratched (not to mention that "Mimi" let her to hold Cam in the first place)? Yes, she did; thank you very much 😏!

For World Smile and Teachers Days...

#ThursdayThoughts: Photoshoots For Awareness (With A Haiku For #NationalPoetryDay)

For Breast Cancer Awareness Month (and a dentastick), Reilly (albe reluctantly) cooperated to wear a very-dark-pink ribbon to raise awareness (and yes, she was sleepy and yawned once).





For Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Week, which is from September 30th-October 6th (Reilly didn't like the "Flash" setting that "Momma" tested, by the way.).

(Besides, "Momma" was literally shaking even on the floor when she was laying down trying to try to pink and blue bow onto the pink and blue collar. You try kneeling in front of the couch and tying the bow for about an hour before having to lay down to try it after your arms and hands get tired because of Cerebral Palsy. You will shake, and anyone decent would encourage you to do that photoshoot with your puppy for whom you tied the bow. OCD/Anxiety does not help, by the way.).








For Mental Illness Awareness Week, which is October 7th-13th, since quite a few mental-illness-awareness ribbons either are orange or are partially orange.

PS For #NationalPoetryDay, an extend haiku:

Helping "Momma" raise

Awareness is the fluffball

That everyone knows

As the Reilly Rosalita

Who loves all people

And wants them to be healthy

As well as help those

Whom need a little more help

Than other people...

Even if only to have

As many people

Around as is possible

To give her scritches

And all of the belly rubs

In the whole wide world 😉

(Everyone knows that Reilly's

(Not really the kind

(To love people only for

(What they can give her)
