Jiffy & Toby


Jiffy and Toby were wide awake and ready for me this morning! They cleaned out their water bowl again, so I got them outside right away. They both did their thing and came right back inside. It sure was chilly again today! After they ate they had a little bit of energy and started sort of wrestling around. I almost got knocked over a couple times! Tonight I took them both out again right away when I got there. Jiffy had done his business and we were about to head back inside. Toby came over and stood right in front of me and wouldn't budge. I started to walk around him, trying not to trip and fall in the snow, and Jiffy somehow got loose from me! Them huskies.... I tell ya! They sure know how to be elusive when you're trying to catch them! Good thing for me, I got a couple tricks up my sleeve. I finally got him after a couple minutes of him tearing around the yard, and made him go inside. Then Toby wouldn't come in... I fed Jiffy and continued calling for Toby. He looked at me a couple times and eventually wandered inside. They were very good for me and I know they will be happy that you are home tonight!


Taz

I got the thermostat changed in the house this morning. I will go in tomorrow too just to double check it. Taz and I just played fetch today. It was only about 2 degrees with the windchill and a little windy. I put down some more hay for Taz in his house too, so he'll stay cozy and warm. I thought his water would be frozen solid today, but it wasn't and it looks like he drank a good amount before it froze, so I think it'll be fine. He drank a bit when I was there today too. He did very well for me playing fetch. He brought the ball back right away and sat in front of me. I would take the ball and hand him a piece of treat. One time the ball bounced up and buried itself in the snow. He had to try and dig to find it, and very delicately picked it out of the snow!
