This is one of my favorite quotes right up there with "the only good quality some people have is that they never re-produced". I enjoy quotes especially ones I deem as humorous. Do you have a favorite quote you'd like to share on Xanga?

When we were younger it used to amuse and puzzle us to see older couples so very devoted to their pets. Now that Fritz and I are an older couple and with an empty nest, it seems perfectly normal to make a video of our Bella Beautiful Beagle. Although this clip does not actually show much of Bella it might amuse other pet owners especially if you are acquainted with Beagles.

I know sometimes I see couples and I think -how sweet and then on closer look I see that I went to school with them and they're my age. lol
that reminds me that I need to get out to the lake and let Maggie run. I have a photo and will post the story later. love jill
@Babyboomerjill - I've done the same thing...guess this being the older generation takes some getting used to doesn't it? Have a nice walk with your Maggie.
I loved the video!! Bella is beautiful! I have to give more thought to the expressions I hate. Be back later.
@Dominie - Thank you Dear Dominie.
Neat pic and video!! Glad for your comments!
i loves bella the beagle bugler!!! she's sniffed out something ... i love to watch my skooter run and leap through the tall grass!! and i can tell from her bark whether it's a frog, human, or canine intruder!!
@windupherskirt - Oh wow, your Skooter has identifiable differences in her voice for different Prey.! Bella has her Bella voice and that is it, she bays and barks as furiously at a frog as she does to a coyote, a kitten or a coon. Aren't pets a delight! Thanks for your comment.
@Lucy_or_Ethel - oh yeah ... The Skoot has different prey barks! hahaha ... i love The Skoot ... as weerd as she is ...think it is true that people and their dogs are very similar?
sweet!
@Tymedancer_is_Grannyinboxers - thanks!@windupherskirt - I agree about dogs and their masters being similar, I am short and round with stubby legs, big ears and a prominent nose but I smell far sweeter than Bella does!
Do you ever see the reseblance of the pets to the people in the family they belong too. I have read and seen pictures of that. Just wondered.
@ZSA_MD - I have actually in real life known a girl who looked much like her miniature poodle even had the tightly curled hair and sometimes wore her hair in 2 little pony tails tied with a ribbon the same color as her dog had LOL
@Lucy_or_Ethel - bwahaha ... i'm sure you do smell sweeter!!!
@windupherskirt - I try LOL
Bella is beautiful. The couple down the block take their dog for a walk - in a baby stroller. Crazy!
I love your quote. You're right. Some people would be best served by advising them to try hard to NOT be themselves.
I posted a quote I have display at my house recently. here it is - "Don't tell me where your priorites are. Show me where you spend your money and I'll tell you where they are."
@ItsWhatEyeKnow - I agree with your quote. Thanks for your comment.
@murisopsis - LOL that must be quite the site to see!
I am still thinking about expressions!! LOL I made a post of my mt. retreat.
"He's/she's in a better place." How do they know that!! Besides, I want him/her here, not in any other place! Does that expression affect you?
Insert "How" in front of "Does", please.
@Dominie - On that quote I totally agree with you! Or while viewing a corpse in their coffin,"he/she looks so natural and so nice". If I were to be put on display in a coffin I am sure someone would say,"she should have had the mortician do her makeup all the while she was alive".
Welcome back Dominie, hope you had a nice rest.
@Lucy_or_Ethel - That too. I think you do your make-up wonderfully. The mortician doesn't have your special lipstick, anyway!
@Dominie - Thanks! LOL
We used to have beagles. They bark a lot and head down rabbit trails but I liked them.
Good Sunday morning to you.
@mcbery - Good Sunday morning to you also. Bella is a rather timid little girl and barks only when she hunts or if she becomes alarmed. Maybe if we had 2 of them they'd excite each other and bark often, Bella so far is about perfect for us, she even digs moles out of our yard! Yipee!
Awww... Bella is hard at work "protecting" you! My father used to raise Beagles. They are such wonderful dogs! I love those big, soulful, brown eyes. They are loyal and smart and just nice to have around. I miss living in an apartment in the city and not being able to have pets or a garden. I will always be a country girl at heart! Hope you are well, my friend! We are currently getting a visit from our youngest daughter, son in law, and sweet little grandbaby. Oh! I am lovin' it! Currently, they are out visiting, so I am trying to get caught up on laundry and a few other things while I simmer a big pot of sauce. Blessings!
Bella is beautiful!
@seedsower - Thank you!@DanishDoll - Good to hear from you. What a blessed time youare having with that new baby and her family!
Two of my favorite quotes. “Haste makes waste.” and “He who hesitates is lost.” For every quote of advice there seems to be an opposite around too.
@vexations - Guess for most positives there is a negative right? Thanks for the comment.
