Chico, Chi-chi and Cali

This morning the pups were both sleeping when I first walked in. After I shut the door, they knew I was there and started barking! As soon as Chico's feet hit the ground outside, he took off running! He zoomed around all over the backyard and was hopping up in the air like a bunny rabbit. It was hilarious! Chi-chi hung out by me and got her morning attention. I decided to take a little walk around the yard and she followed me. Chico was having so much fun! Cali was peering out the door and wanted to come play too. She stretched up and batted at the handle. When we came in, Chico and Cali were chasing each other around while Chi-chi ate her breakfast. Cali hopped up on the back of the chair I was sitting in and looked down at Chico. I started to pet Cali and scratch her chin. She had pretty much kept her distance from me most of the times I have seen her, but boy was I her new best friend! I stopped petting her because Chico and Chi-chi were hopping in my lap. Cali moved down to the arm of the chair to start rubbing her head on me and let me know she was still there! Chico really wanted to go back outside to play, so we did for a little while. Cali followed me to the door and was rubbing against my legs the whole way.
Peek-a-boo! Can you see me?

Toby, Tyson & Morgan

When I opened the door to come into the house this morning Morgan was right there to greet me and get some attention.  Tyson was laying up on the counter in the kitchen and I went over and gave him some attention, with Morgan following behind.  Toby was snoozing on the bed and I had to go get him up and going this morning! It took a little bit for him to realize it was time to go outside.  But once he did, he was going crazy, running around and ready to go!  We went out in the back for a bit and he did his business, then we went for a walk around the neighborhood.  When we got back he was really playful and I sat on the ground and he wrestled around with me for a little while before it was time to go.
Is it that time already?

Mandy, Erin, Oscar and Izzy

Mandy met me at the door, while Erin stretched and wagged her tail! The girls were anxious to go outside and greet the morning dew. After a potty break, it was back in to have their morning treat and breakfast. As you can see in the picture, they both enjoyed the treat! Mandy then ran for her blue ball and took it to the bedroom door; she is excited for Mom and Dad's return!

After breakfast, we went back outside to enjoy the cool morning. I think both girls are ready for Mom and Dad to come home, as each little sound outside made them look to the door! I stayed a bit longer so I could say my goodbyes with lots of scratches and belly rubs! We had a great time; all four animals are loving and very comical!

Mandy, Erin, Oscar and Izzy

The girls must have been enjoying the beautiful, cool evening, as they were slow to greet me tonight! Once they came in, it was the couch and scratches for Mandy and a game of fetch with Erin! I checked on the kitty cats out in the garage, and once again, Oscar came out right away to greet me. He enjoyed a few neck scratches, while Izzy came out, said a few words and went back to bed!

The girls were anxious for me to get back, so I joined them for more scratches and games with the yellow toy! Erin got so crazy with the yellow toy, she ripped an ear off! Then she couldn't decide if she wanted to play with the ear or the rest of the toy; it was great! Finally, she joined Mandy on the couch for some TLC! Before I said goodnight, both girls were getting their tummy rubbed at the same time, both with one paw up in the air! It was so cute!
