Squeezy Cheese Cue?

When Meeka had to take Tramadol twice a day she got her pill with squeezy cheese. It was her hands down favorite.

Maizey also thinks that squeezy cheese is the junk food of the gods, so we ended up working A LOT of “squeezy cheese Zen”. Eventually Maizey knew if she wanted her bit of squeezy cheese she had to sit nice and wait for Meeka to take her pill.

Tonight I got out the most treasured of treats once again to give Magnus his pill. As I was bribing him to take the dreaded medicine I glanced down and what was my little girl doing?

A perfect squeezy cheese zen. Apparently the can, the smell or whatever it was, was enough to remind her if she wants her bit of treasured yellow goo she needs to sit patiently. Needless to say she got an extra helping of the yellow goo of the gods!


Tonight I miss my Big Girl very much.

    Squeezy cheezy? Sounds like I need to get some of that stuff!

    Isn’t it funny what can remind you of your old dogs? For me it is the smell of kielbasa.

      Kielbasa? That just doesn’t sound good to me at all! But I bet it did to your dog! What kind of pup was it? Right now Everything reminds me of Meeka, but it is getting better so the memories come with more joy and less pain. Thanks for commenting!

    I miss Meeka too. Whenever I see Meeka, I think of my Laura girl too.

    When Maizey behaved so well and waited for the sqeezy cheezy, I wonder whether she remembered Meeka too at that moment.

      Thank you for taking time to remember out Big Girl with us priscilla. She and Laura were both really special dogs.

      I don’t know if Maizey was thinking of anything except her love affair with squeezy cheese.LOL But I like to think that the lessons we all learned, Maizey included, will stick with us forever!

    That’s so cute – squeezy cheese zen! Maizey was really just reminding you that Meeka will always be a part of you all.

    Hope Magnus is feeling better!

      Hi Ricky, I love your comment! It is so true that our current pups do remind us of the ones we have lost, and in such a good way!

    Hi! Thanks for Following my blog Luna’s Training Levels!

    Cheese is one of my dog’s favorites too. She’ll hear me open a pack of cheese all the way from the other side of the house and come running into the kitchen, then Sits and Stares. Super cute and polite.
