19 cats, 10 dogs and 1 doe featured in the Morning Report in September – Pioneer Press

“I recently got these sisters, Elsa and Sissy, a mix of multiple breeds according to genetic analysis: Great Pyrenees, Golden Retriever, Alaskan Malamute, Anatolian Shepherd, Siberian Husky,” Steve writes. “It’s safe to say they won’t be cold when living outside this winter. At a little less than nine months, they both weigh nearly 90 pounds and their massive paws indicate they aren’t done growing! Fortunately, they keep watch on our five acres in rural western Wisconsin as we’ve seen fox and bobcats who are interested in our chickens. They were a little big for ‘their’ deck chairs, so naturally I had to buy lounge chairs for both …”
“My cat Fiasco crossed the Rainbow Bridge four years ago,” Deb wrote. “He was a ‘dog/cat’ always running to the door to welcome me home! Happy fall.”
“I had a surprise visitor to my courtyard one morning,” Ken writes. “I heard an unusual noise at my water feature and turned around to see this doe drinking water and checking to see what I was doing … how she even knew it was there shows how smart wildlife can be.”

“This is Maki, our soon-to-be 5-year-old American Miniature Shepherd,” Tim writes. “He was born in the Czech Republic and at one year was re-homed to a breeder in France. Maki turned out to be too big as a miniature, so he needed to be re-homed again. We acquired him a year ago and he now lives with us in Germany. Maki spends his days playing with his neighborhood besties, zooming through the fields and volunteering with the USO to comfort travelers at the nearby air base.”
