Hi there, Cass here.
It’s #FidoFriday! We watched Samsung Unpacked – don’t @ me – and one thing I really noticed was there were a LOT of dog interactions to demonstrate photo & video abilities. They even have dog icons as a choice for navigation buttons – a rare find. But let’s focus on the real thing. Share a pic of a doggo you find interesting or an upbeat dog story.

I posted this picture of Bennie because he did this mat imitation as a puppy at my dad’s house. Someone on Mastodon said they thought he was a tiny dog on a table by some cups until they read the description🙂

Cut to Mrs. Dean's class reunion at F&M in Lancaster PA. It was a combined party of every fifth year, so 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, etc. So, her 25th year class reunion. But a big party because of all the other class years, big enough to hire big entertainment. Ray Charles. Family friendly, one of Mrs. Dean's classmates and her husband were there with their daughter, who was in the process of frequently engaging with the tooth fairy, including it would seem, that very night.
It is after the concert. We had gone back to our cars to retrieve Daisy so we could walk around campus before splitting up and going our various ways. The daughter is of course in love with Daisy, who is of course in love with the daughter. They are delig... show more
Cut to Mrs. Dean's class reunion at F&M in Lancaster PA. It was a combined party of every fifth year, so 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, etc. So, her 25th year class reunion. But a big party because of all the other class years, big enough to hire big entertainment. Ray Charles. Family friendly, one of Mrs. Dean's classmates and her husband were there with their daughter, who was in the process of frequently engaging with the tooth fairy, including it would seem, that very night.
It is after the concert. We had gone back to our cars to retrieve Daisy so we could walk around campus before splitting up and going our various ways. The daughter is of course in love with Daisy, who is of course in love with the daughter. They are delighted to see each other, so cute with each other. It is night, fairly dark but of course there is enough light to see paths etc. Suddenly there is a shriek. "My tooth!" followed by ever increasing wailing. The daughter's tooth had wiggled loose and come out and into the bushes. There is not enough light to make out where it is. The wailing continues. Increases. One does not simply deprive the tooth fairy of the opportunity to pay a dollar for a tooth.
What does one do to silence such a bereft child? "Find it!" we tell Daisy. "Find it!" She is a bit confused but is obviously aware something is up, worried that her friend is distraught. She displays some adaptability and begins sniffing around the underbrush, even though we hadn't shown her a toy first. Back and forth, in and around the bushes. Then suddenly her posture gets very attentive. She starts snorfling at something. She has found the tooth! She picks it up in her mouth and throws it, does it again ("Throw It!" is another trick she taught us to make her do) The wailing stops! The tooth fairy is assuaged!

i've walked and run people's dogs.
the one real story i have was rescuing a dog that got caught in a river current.
we found a boat with a long rope, i got in and got to the dog, and held onto it while folks on the river bank reeled us in.

Dog story? Years before Malte came along this little fella named Chacha introduced us to the idea of maybe possibly one day having a dog of our own. Our holiday dog. What that could be like we learned from him. Chacha the dog did dog things: run around, demand we play with him, cunningly open doors to the pantry, eat all the things when we weren't looking, and rest together with his favourite humans when the time had come. Zzzz... such a cutie. #dogsusingpillows #dogs #hunde #dogsofmastodon #dogsofpixelfed #dogsofthefediverse #fedidogs #dogsoffriendica

The admin/podmin/maintainer of pixelfed.automat.click (@billyidl) ran into technical trouble, the server's TLSv1 asks for but does not receive a known name. Nothing I can do to fix it, I offered help which may not have reached them, so only they can. Fedi dynamics!
It will be fine soon. I sure hope I can add more photos later when automat.click is up again.
Until @billyidl makes that happen here's more Chacha for you:
