Our dogs often act like the timid puppies that they used to be. Starbuck, in particular, is terrified of being outside when the temperature is above freezing and there's still snow on the roof. As we have metal roofs, that's when the snow slides off into massive piles. The dog yard has a couple of those landing zones, but still plenty of space well away from them for the dogs to play.
Where does she sit whining? Right under one of the landing zones. Her whines are quite urgent; the first few times I thought she was caught in something. Instead, she was standing with her paws on the window sill, looking into our arctic entryway and wagging her tail.
Today, we purchased a water "fountain" to replace our pet water dish. We think that our cat (Satin), who's around eighteen years old, has been having difficulty drinking normally. She's been increasingly splashing the water with her paws, and I once caught her licking her paw immediately after doing so. Our hope is that this fountain will make it easier for her to tell where the water is and to be able to drink it.
The dogs were quite curious when I brought in the box. They sniffed it excitedly with tails wagging. Their curiosity continued while I put it together and filled it. That ended the moment I plugged it in. They immediately ran to the other end of the room. Since then, River has approached it cautiously to stare at it intensely.
Thankfully, Satin drank from it with no problem.
