Gracie & Jack

This morning I fed Gracie and Jack their breakfast after they went outside to go potty. Gracie finished all her food while I stood and waited for her. When they were finished Gracie ran around and played fetch with her little sheep. Jack laid down in the dining room and started singing for me while I talked to him! His tail was wagging the whole time. Eventually he got up and came to sit by me so I'd pet him. Gracie was busy walking back and forth along the couch to itch herself. Jack started to roll around on his back when I started to rub his belly. Gracie came running over and tried playing with him and even joined in the rolling around! This afternoon I let them out again when I got there, then they ate their supper for me. They both were very happy to see me! Gracie rolled around out in the grass and did a little army crawl. They made me laugh when Gracie peed, then Jack peed on her spot on the grass, then they kept going back and forth on the same spot! When we went in they both stayed by me for their attention! A fly came over by Jack and he tried to hunt it down. I kept them in this afternoon because Jack really didn't want to go out and it was super hot out today with the heat index. Tonight they were both sitting at the front door dancing around excitedly when I came!  When I let them out, one of the neighbors through the backyard shot off a firework. Gracie and Jack both ran to the back of the fence and barked at it! I grabbed Gracie's harness when we got inside and she came over and looked at me curiously. Jack knew what was up and helped me by sticking his head through the collar. He was very excited! We saw an older gentleman walking his two dogs as we were leaving, and he knew Jack and said hi. We took a nice long walk tonight! They were pretty tired when we got home and both laid on the cool floor.

Maycie & Luke

This morning Maycie and Luke must have heard me coming. I could hear them barking before I even opened the door. They were bouncing up and down to go outside! I brought them back in after they went potty and fed them their breakfast. Luke was finished first like usual. He put his front paws up on the gate and started to whine to go play. We went out and he got his game of fetch! Maycie had him chasing her around for awhile too!
