Little Molly Moo Moo

One of the songs we use to sing as a kid was "Little Bunny Foo Foo" (hoping through the forest, picking up the field mice and bopping on the head.) Well I've adapted the words for Miss Molly. I have a few variations, but i'll share the most common ones we sing:

Little Molly Moo Moo
is waddling through the forest
eating people's snack foods
and peeing on their lawns

or

Little Molly Moo Moo
waddling down the hall way
looking for a tasty treat
then snuggling on the couch


Moo or Moomoo has been established as Molly's nick name around here. It's fitting with her appetite, and it's fun to say : )

She has the worst sense of direction though. She gets turned around in the apt complex hallway and can't seem to remember which door is ours (even thought its the only one with a door mat.) We joke that Tink has a better sense of direction which isn't too far from the truth. Tink certainly knows which apartment building is ours and her way around things much better that Moo. It's funny cause we'll be holding the door open to come into the building and she is standing by a neighbor's door. So we laugh and say, "why don't we use this door Moo, it's open."

Molly share's Tink's affinity for warm and soft blankets. She has discovered my down comforter throw and she loves to lay on that on the couch. Since we've graduated to a 2 dog house, I think we're going to need a bigger couch. The love seat is perfect for 2 plus Tink, now with Molly, we get rather creative with seating options. And if Molly doesn't think there's enough room, she just sits there looking at us, until we move Tink or create some more space. Tink has been observed to use Molly's back as a head rest or snuggling up tight to fit us all in. Ha, realistically, we'll just sit nice and comfy with the 4 of us under some covers watching a movie : )

Molly's appetite seems to be stabilizing a little bit. She's been going out to pee and then without hesitation she joins the 3 of us in bed. This weekend we had a good 30 min to an hour both on sat and sunday morning with the 4 of us all cozy. I'm in heaven in the morning like that : )

Anyways, it's been fun yet fairly low key in our house with the 4 of us. Tink's doing pretty well with Molly and Molly is thriving here. Even her weight and shape looks so much better! Tink's back end was really weak this evening as I watched her try to nest or walk a bit. I'm not sure what's up with that but we will certainly be keeping an eye on her. She seems to walk fine in the morning and evening, but certain times after her evening walk, she can be a bit unsteady in the house. And she's certainly unsteady before she completely wakes up in the morning. Aside from that issue, Tink's been eating pretty well, walking well, and my little snuggle queen!

Oh our little doggie retirement home makes me smile!
