Surprise, no birdies photos today. Gone but not forgotten, hubby and I will always remember good times with the first dogs we owned together. This was way before our sweet Goldie Girl. Sunshine was first, she was a pretty yellow Labrador. Daisy came 6 months later , she was a sweet Golden Retriever. I scanned some of my favorite photos of Sunshine and Daisy. Some old film photos were taken around 1990, scanned recently into my computer.
Sunshine on the left and Daisy on the right.
Both Daisy and Sunshine loved swimming in the nearby lake.
Fetching sticks and swimming were their favorite activities.
Sunshine at the lake with some daylilies nearby.
Sunshine, she look like she has a fly on her face.
Daisy found this mud puddle to be refreshing..
Sunshine and Daisy, winter time at the lake.
Sunshine and Daisy running on the snow covered fire road.

During these stay at home times hubby and I worked on some old photo albums. Happy times and happy memories!

Eileen - I am smiling from ear to ear looking at these photos. The joy is emanating from your pups, even if one of them is in a mud puddle! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks Angie! They always looked like they had a smile on their faces when they went on walks and were swimming in the lake. Have a great day, happy weekend!
DeleteThose were handsome dogs! Of course I remember sweet your Goldy Girl ... She is definitely not forgotten by any of us and it is nice to learn about your earlier companions. ... I’m impressed with how you used your “isolation” time to work on your old photos and albums.
ReplyDeleteHello Sallie,
DeleteWe had no idea how the old photo albums were ruining our photos. We have great memories of all our old dogs. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Thanks for sharing memories. Loved the post.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
DeleteThese are wonderful two dogs and the photos are great and what you have experienced with them great in summer and winter. The memories are always so beautiful, I feel the same when I look at old photos.

ReplyDeleteWonderful photos and memories! I once had a golden retriever, and they are lovely dogs.
Happy weekend!
Thank you Marit! The Golden Retrievers are great family dogs. Enjoy your weekend!

Hello Anu,
DeleteDaisy was a fun dog, they all were. They are missed! Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
It is lovely looking over older photos as it brings back a lot of memories and a great idea to photocopy the ready old one so that you can share them with us. Your 2 dgs look like they were very good friends and certainly enjoyed the water. Thanks for hosting Eileen, stay safe and have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteHello Margaret,
DeleteYes, they were good friends and great dogs! Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Deletepretty names for pretty companions :) It is good to have photos to remember by. We had a dog when I was a child but it turned out I was bit allergic to them. It is sad when you can´t pet them when they say "hello".
ReplyDeleteTake care and stay safe. They are opening up a bit more in Sweden now. From this week we are allowed to travel, carefully, in our country.
Hello,
DeleteIt is sad you were allergic to dogs. They are great pets. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!

ReplyDeleteAwww, you know I loved these images - a delightful change from your usual (though your birds are always welcome!) YAM xx
Thank you YAM! Seeing these old photos of our dogs brought back many happy memories. Happy weekend to you!
DeleteHello Eileen,
ReplyDeleteHow great to have pictures of Sunshine and Daisy
The photos are really beautiful.
Our Amber passed away a year ago tomorrow.
Would you put my link, I can't.
Best regards Irma
Thanks Irma, we still miss all our old dogs. There were so much fun to have around.
DeleteStay well, take care and enjoy your weekend!
I had so many pets as a kid-- hamsters, Guinea Pigs, mice, lizards, turtles, snakes, canaries, parakeets... but never a dog or cat. Truth was that our grandparents both had wonderful dogs-- my Mom's parents lived right next door. Ironically, when the last of my younger brothers and sisters left the household, my parents adopted a great little friendly mutt!
ReplyDeleteHello, Ken
DeleteMy hubby never had a dog until we got together, one time we had 4 dogs. These two and two of their puppies.
Back then I could not imagine going without having a dog. They are fun! Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Beautiful looking dogs, Eileen. I'm glad you decided to share your treasured photos of them. I'm sure you have lots of stories and memories about them. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill! Have a great weekend!
DeleteYour dogs look like lovely people, I mean dogs. Going through old photos is always fun.

ReplyDeleteHello David,
DeleteYes, looking back we have had many happy memories. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Thank goodness for photography to capture these precious memories. These two sure look like they had wonderful lives.
ReplyDeleteHello,
DeleteYes, I think all our old dogs had happy lives, they were treated like a family member and loved.
Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!

ReplyDeleteHello Jenn,
DeleteThese dogs never tired of fetching sticks, happy memories. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Those are good looking dogs! The hardest part of having dogs or any animal is letting them go.

DeleteGreat memories...Dogs are such great companions, and play a huge roll in my daily life so I know hoe much you miss these two. Annie will fetch a stick but Floss just looks at me like she is saying..."Yes, good job, you can toss a stick." Have a good weekend.

I can see how you and hubby a love of a particular type of dog. Daisy and Sunshine were very lovely dogs that left you with special memorises and beautiful photos. When I was younger we always had a dog in the home and they are very special animals. If only we had the time and commitment to have another.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful week Eileen.
Hello Phil,
DeleteI grew up always having a dog, we have many happy memories with all our dogs. We do not have one now, because of the time needed for their care. We like to be able to take trips and not worry about leaving behind a dog. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Aww, sweet pups!
ReplyDeleteHello Terri,
DeleteThanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
Your dogs look like they were wonderful friends and terrific companions. I used to have dogs before I got a cat lifestyle and I love them. These are both so handsome!
ReplyDeleteHello Jeanie,
DeleteThey were great dogs, very loving. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your weekend!
I'm a cat person - have always had cats as pets; no dogs. But...Sunshine and Daisy sure look like sweet, loving dogs.

DeleteOh wow, Eileen, I knew Goldie Girl. So great to see these two beautiful babies of yours as well. We definitely have had time to sort out and do many things during Lockdown. I intend to write a "How to " article and the subtitle would be: "It took a global pandemic for me to..." The title still hasn't come to me! I sorted so much out in my house on my computer and on my phone. Your scanned photos are very clear. Thanks for sharing and for hosting this meme. I posted last week and couldn't upload. But here I am. Have a great Sunday. Be safe. Jo
ReplyDeleteHello Jo,
DeleteWe had plenty of time during our lockdown. Thanks so much for joining in this week and for the comment!
Take care and stay well! Have a great day and a happy new week!
such sweet faces ... this makes me smile. we have met so many great animals (pets) that our camping buddies own .. i often wonder how they keep up? we were at a Rural King in Illinois and they had a cute bunny. my hubby and i were like so cute ...he even thought about it for a good while. i was on. i have not had a pet since i was young. had a guinea pig, lots of fish ... but then he realized how long a bunny could live. i think it was a miniature one. and they apparently live extra long. i way saying we could have him (or her) on a leash. i have seen it. never would have know cats are on leashes but they are ... some say they prefer it. such great views. thanks for sharing. have Sunday. ( ;
ReplyDeleteHello Beth, It is nice to be able to travel again, we still take precautions.
DeleteThe rabbits are a lot of work, just cleaning their cages. We used to have a lop bunny many years ago.
I do love the dogs, miss them all. Thanks for the comment and visit. Take care! Have a great new week!
Dogs to play with, it must've been a beautiful time.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob! Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!
