Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny today for Nature Friday~~

My very first picture showing off the beautiful purple Irises in mom's garden!

The perennial Bachlor Buttons are blooming~
Our Lady's Mantle is a favorite of moms.  If you bigify the pic, you can see the dewdrops decorating the leaves♥
This is Calendine Poppy.   Mom took this photo when she was walking alone before I came to live with her.   This is in front of the Secret Garden, which I haven't seen yet.   Tuesday, I see the vet and hopefully he clears me to start walking with mom☺
The Purple Leaf Plum is also a pic before me.   
I'm settling in here and I really really like it!
Happy Friday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥
Duke

  1. Oh Duke, what a wonderful Nature Friday post. Well done for continuing in Molly's paw prints! We're delighted to hear that you're settling in well. With such a lovely new home, why wouldn't you? And of course things will get even better when you are cleared to go out walking with your mom (which we're sure she will enjoy as much as you do).
    Toodle-oo!

  2. I bet your mom is sleeping well at night after having you being crazy all day. Mom loves puppies and wishes we would stay puppies for a couple years but we grow up too fast. Most humans seem to be happy puppies grow up fast. Have a fun weekend with your mom!

  7. You are going to be one big dog when you grow up. I hope you trainer her gently but firmly to do you bidding.

  8. Duke 'oh oh darlin' you are so fine'. (I borrowed those words from one of my favorite Beach Boy tunes titled "Darlin'.
    I loved the posies Mom shared and I adored your photos too

    as well as your Inner 'Dale with that very special relaxin' shot!

  16. Dandy Duke, look at you posing so nicely in front of those pretty irises. Mom loves that purple leaf plum. And we don't think there is any doubt that you are quite happy in your furever home from that last photo:)
