If there’s anything better on a cold day than a warm dog and a cup of hot cocoa, I don’t know what it is. #dogsofmastodon

I put Ashley in her new coat, put on my Alaska Pipeline coat, and went out into the bitter, bitter cold. Ashley would have liked to come right back in, but I made her stay outside until she had accomplished a couple of very important tasks. #dogsofmastodon
At the airport it’s currently -9°F, with a wind chill of -34°F (-37°C).

Jackie toppled up my third coffee, so I get three-and-a-third coffees this morning! (Also shown: Ashley #dogsofmastodon.) #coffee

Things outside the window that need barking at, in priority order, according to Ashley 🐕 #dogsofmastodon:
- Dogs
- Squirrels
- Small children, especially if running, especially if closer than the sidewalk
- Strangers, especially if pausing
- Anyone wearing a hood or hat
- Anyone carrying a box or bag, especially if carrying it awkwardly.

Poor Ashley. Nobody’s ever told her the story of The Dog Who Cried “Woof!”
(She’s been barking at me.) #dogsofmastodon

When the family dog would adopt this posture in a chair, we’d say she was “Sitting up like a regular person.” I don’t remember Ashley doing so before. #dogsofmastodon

Ashley and Moose Tracks tussling in the dog park.
Moose Tracks is still a puppy, and kinda bitey, but Ashley did very well at simultaneously tolerating his behavior and teaching him how to do better. #dogsofmastodon

Ashley lay down on the floor in the bedroom, so I sat down on the floor next to her. She started woofing at me, so I woofed back at her.
She seemed non-plussed. #dogsofmastodon

I did a poor job of training Ashley to look at me. Instead of looking to me for guidance, she’s usually looking around, mostly looking for things she shouldn’t be doing.
This morning, though, she was looking at me, so I seized the opportunity to get a picture of her that’s not just of the back of her head. #dogsofmastodon
