Dusty


Dusty was really ready to go out early this morning! I quick grabbed his leash and then we went for a walk. It was very foggy out this morning, but comfortable out. So we strolled around both courtyards for most of the visit. When we got back I gave him his half of pupperoni treat after he showed me a few tricks. I got his food ready for him before I left. This afternoon it was a bit drizzly outside, so we didn't walk quite as long as usual. So, we went back inside to play a little bit instead. We tried the pigs-in-a-blanket treat. I split it in half so he still got 2 treats. I asked Dusty where his toys were and he ran and pulled them out and tossed them around! Tonight, as I walked up I saw Dusty sitting in the window. As soon as he saw me, he jumped down and headed for the door before I ever opened the garage! When I opened the door he was jumping up and down excitedly. I went up and grabbed his leash, and he followed me down carrying his little dog toy! We walked a lot longer tonight since it stopped drizzling out. We mostly stayed over by the pool tonight since the other courtyard was busy with all kinds of dogs. After he did his business and was finished checking things out, we headed back inside for a bit. He got his treats and we played a little too. After he got his treats he started rubbing his head on the floor and running around in circles! The hair on his ears stood straight up, so funny! Before I left tonight he crawled into my lap and gave me a couple kisses! He seems to be warming up more and more every time I see him.

Dakota & Benny

Kota and Benny were ready to go when I got there today! I put Benny's food up before I let Kota out, then we went on our way. When I was getting their leashes down, Benny came running up with his little pink ball in his mouth. Shortly after we got going, I looked away for a second at the dogs barking in the backyard we were passing. When I looked back, I saw Kota with a big chunk of feathers in her mouth!! I hurried and got it away from her... there must have been part of a bird lying on the ground that she picked up. Yuck! Kota and Benny went both on our walk today. Kota's stool seemed a lot more solid than the last time I saw. The ground and everything else was all wet today, so the puppies got very dirty! When we got back I rubbed them down good with the towel. I put Benny's food back down before I left today. Neither one munched on their food while I was there, but they sure were thirsty when we got back!
