Toby, Tyson & Morgan

This morning Morgan came walking around the corner to say hi when I came in. Toby was all curled up on the bed. He and I went outside for awhile. It was really nice out this morning and Toby spent most of the time wandering around the yard. His neighbor friends were out and trying to chase with him along the fence. When Toby was ready to head inside, I fed him his breakfast. Then we sat on the couch by Morgan and I gave Toby a nice back scratch. I had his little leg going a mile a minute! This afternoon I came in and Toby was snoozing on the bed again. He didn't even want to get up! He rolled over and stretched out while I rubbed his belly. Finally he got up and went outside to go potty. When we came in I looked around for Tyson and found him sleeping in the bathtub! Morgan was following me all over the place today. Toby dug in his basket and pulled out all kinds of toys for us to play with! We tugged around with one, then he'd get bored and get a new toy. We even chased each other for awhile and he zoomed in circles around the house! Tonight Morgan met me at the door again and was even running after me! Toby was snoozing on the bed and I got him up so we could take a walk. We went for a nice long one again tonight. When we got home Toby at his supper, then sprawled out on the cool tile floor. He was tired! But he still went digging through his toy basket for something to play with. Eventually he grabbed one of his toys and ran off into the bedroom. Guess it was his bedtime!

Chelsea

This morning Chelsea was barking pretty loudly when I pulled up. Once I opened the door she came over to sniff me, then her little tail was wagging away! I fed Chelsea her breakfast and had her sit for me while I filled her bowl. She was a very good girl! When she was finished she got a yummy treat. I think she misses her friend... I tried to get her to play with me, but she wasn't too interested. She did enjoy getting her tummy rubbed though! She went outside for awhile so I went out with her. She came and sat by me to get her back scratched some more. This evening Chelsea was still laying on her bed by the window when I came in. She came over to say hi before we got her supper ready. When she was finished I got out her kong toy and she perked up her ears and sniffed at it. She got a couple crumbs of leftover treats out of it, then got bored with that. She rolled over and got her tummy rubbed again for a long time. Then I had her chasing me all around the living room! She shook my hand for a treat and I turned on her music again before it was time to go.

Webster

This morning Webster was happy to see me again! We went outside and he made sure to bring his ball with him. He didn't want to give it up for me to throw! I was able to toss it for him a couple times, and he would excitedly come back to sit with me. There was a bad accident at the intersection just one street south of yours this morning when I came. We could hear one of the neighbor dogs was howling along with the sirens while we were outside. Webster and I went back in, and he sat over by his window. I came to sit with him and pet him for a long time. He still wouldn't let go of his ball! He even rolled over on the floor and laid halfway in my lap while I scratched his belly for him. This evening Webster had a little energy to burn. He came running up to me, then ran back to get his ball and ran to the door. He was ready to go outside and play! He actually gave me his ball a few times. I had him chasing for it, and he even decided to take a stroll around the side of the house. I called for him and he came prancing back with his ball. We went in and I think he was looking for treats, because I turned my back and out of the corner of my eye saw his head up over the counter! I sat with him while he ate a good portion of his supper, then we sat over by his window. He rolled over and laid across my lap again while I pet him.

Lucy & Shadow

This morning Shadow and Lucy were both in the living room messing around. They kind of stopped when they saw me, then came over to say hi. They hung out in the bathroom and waited for me to finish cleaning their litterbox. When I finished, they ran ahead of me into the living room. Shadow and I played with his rope toy for a long time while Lucy enjoyed looking out the front door. Shadow was rolling around and jumping all over the place! He stopped and laid on his back for a little bit, batting at the rope every now and again. Eventually he took a little break from playing to sit up by the window in the kitchen. Then Lucy was ready to play!
