Dakota & Benny

This afternoon Benny was zoom-zooming around the living room when I got there. Kota talked away as I got them ready! Today we passed a little girl outside with her mom. She said, "Hi doggies! Momma look at the cute doggies! Awwww!". She was quite the cutie pie. We had some new dogs outside in their yards along the way, or at least ones we haven't seen in a long time. Kota and Benny both got excited! Benny barked and Kota jumped up and started running! Once we got home I let them play in the backyard for a few minutes. They came in and Kota worked on a little lunch.

Ethel, Lew, Danner, Jenny & Fiona

This morning Fiona met me at the door. The others barked for a minute from the garage, then came running to say hi. Ethel had eaten most of her dinner from last night and was up and moving around like normal. Fiona and Lew were bouncing up and down as I brought out their food bowls. After they all ate, we spent some time outside. They ran around and explored some, then were ready to head back in. I sat down on the floor in the living room with them and was getting all kinds of kisses! Jenny was attached to one side and Danner was rolling around on the other. Fiona stuck her head under my arm and Lew just climbed right in my lap! Fiona disappeared and returned with a red Kong toy. I tossed that down the hallway a few times for her. Then, she and Lew were goofing around and play wrestling. Everyone was so excited! They each got their treats before it was time to go.

Ethel, Lew, Danner, Jenny & Fiona

This morning it was nice and warm out, so I let the kiddos run around for awhile outside right away. Jenny and Lew were hanging out by the trailer, sniffing around. Danner and Fiona wandered around by their fenced in area and Ethel kept close to the porch. I rounded them up for breakfast except for Lew again. He wanted to keep exploring! When he was ready I fed everyone. He didn't want to eat for me at first, but he did later when I tried again and gave him some privacy from the others. I guess he just wanted some lovin'! I let Ethel hang out in her room for a bit so she could work on her breakfast too. Since it was so warm out I kept everyone in the garage for the day. Tonight I opened up the doggie door and they all came running out, one by one! I fed them supper right away; they were all so excited to eat! I had Ethel go in her room so she could eat. She must have been tired and decided to curl up on her bed. After dinner, the other pups roamed around the backyard. It was still so nice and warm out! Lew hung out inside for awhile and laid on his bed. I checked on Ethel, who was sleeping soundly. She was hanging off the bed a bit, so I scooped her up and made her more comfortable. Then she sat up and had a couple treats along with the others.

Bailey

This morning Bailey was wiggling her heiny at me as soon as I came in again. She went potty quick, then came in to eat her breakfast. She was in a playful mood. Bailey kept squatting down on her front legs and 'roo-roo-ed' at me! Then she would run up and give me a kiss or paw at me to pet her. She even started rolling around on my lap or next to me! She sat next to me for awhile and got her back scratched. Later, she chased her tail in a circle real quick! She settled down and curled up in her chair for a bit. I got her some treats and rawhides after she went potty one last time this morning.

Bailey

Bailey's little tail was wagging a mile a minute when I came in tonight! I let her out potty quick, then fed her dinner. After she finished she went right to the kitchen and bounced around, wanting her treats! We played in the living room with her toys for a bit. She jumped down on her front legs and was talking to me! I hid a treat in my pocket and it didn't take long for her to find it. Afterwards, she kept sticking her nose in my pocket looking for more! She gave me a couple kisses, then would run into the kitchen and peek around the corner at me. I gave Bailey some more treats before I left.

Ethel, Lew, Danner, Jenny & Fiona

This morning the gang went outside to stretch their legs in the backyard. Lew, Fiona and Jenny all went racing around! Lew decided to crawl through the fence on me. He was right there with everyone else when it was time for breakfast though! After they ate I gave them their treats. Jenny didn't catch hers, so Fiona quickly scooped it up. After cleaning I got a bunch of kisses from everyone. Fiona suddenly ran into the laundry room, pounced on the pillow and carried it into the living room! This evening someone had decided to play with the contents of the basket. Everything was strewn about! Fiona was prancing around carrying a plastic cup. I'm guessing I know who the culprit is! I let them all go potty out back quick before dinner. After I cleaned up they got their treats. This time several were having trouble catching their treats, so some got a couple! I let them all run around outside in the backyard for awhile. Fiona and Lew were exploring around by the fence. Jenny ran off the porch to go join them! When they came in they got pet for a bit, then got some more treats! Oh and thanks everyone for the people treats! They are quickly disappearing!

Ethel, Danner, Jenny, Lew & Fiona

I could hear the gang barking as I came in the house this evening. It took them to hear me talking to Ethel before they came running! I let everyone out back and they ate their dinner. Danner was a sneaky little guy and bolted for Fiona's food! Later I read the note on the counter, so I'll try feeding them separately next time. Jenny and Fiona chased each other around the backyard for awhile. Ethel kept close and followed me around. Everyone came back inside while I cleaned up Ethel's room. It looks like someone was having fun with the gloves. They were laying out in the living room! I tucked them away at the bottom of the basket. Jenny sat by the gate until I finished. I came out and Danner was rolling around on the floor! They lined up for their treats as I got Danner's meds out. Later I sat on the floor by Danner and soon after was surrounded by everyone! Even Ethel came over for her attention. Each snuggled up under an arm or got as close as they could. I was getting kisses on both cheeks and on my chin all at once! I put Ethel back in her room and she proceeded to curl up on her bed. Everyone got one last treat before I left.

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon was much chillier out than we've had in awhile. Kota and Benny were ready to go! Benny could hear the neighbor dogs barking as I got them leashed up. He was getting excited and talked back to them. Kota and Benny were racing each other at the start as usual. It was a pretty quiet day. Not too many of Benny's friends were out today. We got a long walk in and I let them run around out back for a couple minutes when we got home. Kota took a couple nibbles of food, then went to lay in her kennel. This evening I let them run around in the backyard. Kota almost didn't want to go out since she was too busy smelling other dogs on me! Benny heard some dogs barking out there so he had fun zooming around. There were a bunch of people outside back behind the house that kept Kota interested as well. She would run around, then stop to listen for them. I let Benny in to dry off his paws first. Kota was opening the door but couldn't keep it open long enough to get through! Once it was her turn, Benny was barking and running at her, being a little instigator!

Tyler, Emma, Lacey & Luke


The gang all met me at the door this afternoon. I let Tyler and Emma out back. Tyler hesitated like he wasn't sure if he wanted to go out and get wet! I took Lacey out back and put her in the grass, but she didn't want to to potty. She kept cuddling up to me and wanted to head back inside. I let them all in while I got their lunch ready. Lacey was staring up at the counter and the others were making laps around the kitchen. After they finished their lunch, Emma wanted to go back out. I let those two out back and found Lacey waiting at the back door. I took her out again too, and she finally went after I came out in the grass with her. She sure doesn't like the rain! Tyler and Emma were still having fun outside. Luke came out for some attention. He and Lacey came into the living room with me. Lacey was getting her tummy rubbed and would squirm around on her back! I let the big dogs back in and everyone got a snack before I left.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon the pups were ready to go outside. Once they got out there and saw it was raining, everyone quickly went potty and were ready to come right back in. Jimmy was happy to see me and was bouncing up and down for me to pet him. They ran around inside for a bit and each worked on having some lunch. I gave them a treat and put them back to bed when it was time to go.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

MmThis afternoon was so nice out! I let everyone outside right away. The boys ran around and were on the hunt for critters. Sugar lounged around in the sun. They all got to spend the afternoon outside. Tonight the kiddos were running back and forth from the fence to the back door when I arrived! I let them all in and got them their meds and snack. I gave Buddy a little of the potatoes and saved the rest for his morning meds, since it seems to work so well. Jimmy and Sugar got some chicken and rice. Afterwards, they each took turns having their dry food dinner. Sugar and Jimmy snuggled up with me for awhile. Later, Jimmy decided he wanted to play. He ran and got his white teddy bear toy. We played fetch with that. It was so cute! He'd gallop across the room, pounce on it, then shake it around as he brought it back. Buddy took this time to have his turn to be pet. When it was time, they all got their bedtime snack.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I let the pups outside to play. The sun was so nice and warm! After a good roll in the grass, Jimmy found a nice spot next to the house to sprawl out and soak up some sun. Buddy was roaming around and digging in the dirt. I think I even saw him eating some! Sugar came to get pet, then she sat in the sun for a few minutes before she decided she wanted back in. Tonight the pups greeted me at the door. They went potty and came in for their meds and potatoes! That seems to be working really well. Shhhh! Don't tell Buddy I said that! Afterwards Jimmy snuggled up with me while the other two took turns eating dinner. Buddy didn't want Jimmy near the food bowl, and Jimmy didn't want Buddy taking me away either. They're so silly! Buddy came over and got pet and later Sugar hopped up for some snuggling too.

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon the sun was shining nice and warm. Benny was zooming around with his ball in the living room while I let Kota out. They were pretty excited for their walk today and started off with a run for the first little bit! Benny had fun talking to his friends and he even told the cars that passed by who's boss! We got a nice long walk in and they got tired towards the end. As we walked up to the house I noticed Benny's ball laying on the porch. I guess he snuck it out!

Crash & Genny

This morning Genny was carrying around her frog toy when I got there. They went outside for a few minutes and came back inside. After their morning treat, Genny snuggled up to get her back and heiny scratched. Crash was busy giving me kisses and trying to get me to chase him. Genny would paw at me if I stopped petting her! Crash wanted to go out again, and Genny followed shortly after. They both laid in the grass and just enjoyed the outdoors. One would perk up their head and look one direction, so then the other would look to see too. I gave them a couple treats again and told them mom and dad would be home soon!

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon was much chillier than our days together last week! Kota and Benny were still ready to go. Benny tried bringing his ball along with us, so I tossed it back inside. Today Kota saw a flattened beer can laying on the grass, crouched down and was ready to pick it up and throw it in the air! I got her away before she could get it though. Benny barked at some flags that were flapping in the wind. Later, Kota found a cherry sucker and gave it a little lick as we passed by! She had a little lunch after we got home while I tossed the ball with Benny for a few minutes.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I let everyone outside when I arrived. They quickly did their business and were ready to come back inside. Too cold! They've been used to their lounging on the nice warm days. Jimmy snuggled up with me and Sugar went in her hiding spot, while Buddy had some lunch. I let them have the roam of the house for the afternoon. This evening I let the boys outside while I got their meds together. Sugar heard the microwave and was soon bouncing at my heels. Buddy ate first, but he picked out the vetmedin. I crushed that up and gave him a little more potatoes. He finished it off no problem. Next the other two ate. Jimmy cuddled up with me again. Buddy picked and pawed through the dry food. Silly boy! I was petting Jimmy and noticed a strong air freshener scent that was coming from his back. I guess he wanted to smell pretty!

Crash & Genny

Crash poked his nose through the crack of the door this morning as I came in. It had turned colder and very windy, so they did their business and were ready to come back inside shortly after. Crash wrestled around with me and sneak attacked me with lots of kisses! Genny came over and sat with her back to me for her morning back scratch. Later, Genny got a little burst of energy! She suddenly hopped up on the couch in a playful manner, so Crash ran over to her. They began to jump around and play. Crash picked up the piggy toy and tossed it to me, so I threw it for them for awhile. Genny would bounce over and be the first to get it! Later they went outside again for a few minutes until they were ready to come in and have their treats. It had started to rain, so this was actually the first time they had muddy paws! Tonight it looked like Genny had pulled out a different toy while I was gone. They went outside while I filled their food and water. Since it was still cold, they didn't stay out long. Crash curled up on the couch, so I sat with him. Then, he bounced around behind and next to me and would set his paw on my arm. He's so funny! I cleaned his ear out again this evening. He hid under the table when he saw me grab it, but he was such a good boy! Later, Genny ran over and pounced on her cow toy she had out. I told her to go "get him". She would hop backwards, then pounce on him again! Crash went over and put his mouth around one of the legs. She didn't like that, so she took it away and ran with it! Crash wanted to go run around outside, so he did that while Genny and I played inside. She played keep-away with the cow toy at first, then brought him over to play tug of war! Crash must have heard us having fun, because he came running up to the door and was ready to come back in. I gave them a couple treats on my way out and told them mom and dad would be home soon!

Crash & Genny

This morning Crash and Genny played outside for a little while. It was another very warm morning! They came back in after a little bit for a treat. I sat on the floor with them. Crash and I played while I pet Genny. He kept squatting down on his front legs, then would run a quick lap around the house! He'd come back and paw at me or crawl in my lap and give me kisses. Later, we all went back outside for awhile. They both laid down and listened to the birds sing. Crash then decided to go dig a hole! I kept getting him to stop, then he'd look at me and go at it again. Little booger! We headed inside and I got him all cleaned up. This evening they played outside again before that cold weather is supposed to set in! They both ran around tonight. They ran to the fence and said hi to their neighbor friend. Genny laid down and seemed to enjoy the night breeze. But soon after, Crash was busy trying to get her to play! I had them come inside so I could take care of Crash's ear. He saw the bottle and immediately went to hide! It's funny how they know exactly what it looks like. Once I got it in and started rubbing his ear, then he didn't seem to mind. He leaned into my hand since it must have felt good to get that itchy spot! His ear was pretty dirty, so hopefully it starts feeling better soon. I gave him a treat for being such a trooper!

Ethel, Jenny, Lew, Danner & Fiona

The pups heard me coming in the house and barked hello! I opened the garage door to find lots of wagging tails. Ethel was curled up on her bed out there. The rest came running into the kitchen while I opened their doggie door and got breakfast ready. The four went out on the back porch to eat. Poor Danner was too excited and wiggling around so much that he couldn't get his feet under him. I went to help him but he just rolled to his side wanting a belly rub! I got him up and out just in time to finish with the rest. Ethel was roaming around inside, so I got her to come out with us. After breakfast was time for treats! They all lined up and danced around while I got out Danner's meds. Next, I gave them all some attention. I didn't quite have enough hands for them all! Danner was squirming and rolling around at my feet, nudging my arm for me to rub his belly. Fiona and Lew were trying to get the other hand, and Jenny would stick her head under my arm and get in between them all! After they went to play in the backyard, Ethel took her turn as I kept an eye on the others. She leaned up against me as I gently pet her. We headed back in and I got Ethel in her room. She worked on her breakfast a little, then snuggled up on her bed. I gave them all another treat before I left!

Bailey & Bronson

Today Bailey did her big stretch again when I got there. I fed her breakfast right away, then let the pups outside. Bronson quickly went potty then was bouncing up and down at the door. He came and squirmed around in my lap while I pet him. He rolled around and slid himself across the floor and against me to itch his back! Bailey wanted her attention too. She pawed at me and gave me little kisses. They each took turns playing fetch with her toys today. Bronson would follow me around carrying a toy in his mouth. Later, we all went outside for awhile since it was so nice out! We came back in and played a little more. Bronson went back in his room and I gave Bailey her treats.

Bailey & Bronson

Miss Bailey stood up against me with her front paws and gave herself a nice big stretch when I came in tonight! Then she headed right for the kitchen, heiny wiggling away! She knew the treat lady was here! I let Bronson out after Bailey had finished her dinner. Bailey is so quick! Before I could see where his bowl was, she was already headed for it! I quickly picked it up before she had gotten any of his food. Bronson was bouncing at my legs all the way to the back door. I let them both outside potty. When they came in, Bailey went into the kitchen, waiting for her snack. Bronson grabbed a toy and started to play around with me. Bailey heard us having fun, so she came to join in too. She quickly grabbed up each of her toys so he couldn't have them. We played with them anyways when she wasn't paying attention! She played fetch with her toys a little bit while Bronson was hopping and rolling around in my lap, getting his back scratched and tummy rubbed! I let them out potty once more before bed and gave Bailey some treats before I left.

Can I have my treat now? Ok, how about now?

Crash & Genny

This morning was another warm one for the pups to go play outside. They both ran to the fence when they saw the neighbor dog! They all stared at each other for a few minutes, then he went back home. When they came back inside it was time for their treat and Genny's meds. We played around for a little bit and they took turns giving me their heinies to scratch! I think Crash may have the start of an ear infection in his right ear. I noticed last night he was shaking his head a bit, and still was today. Then today I was petting him and he let out a little cry when I touched that ear. Poor boy! He went right back to playing though! Before I left, I gave them each a big hug from mom and dad! This evening was still so nice out! Crash was having a blast running all around the yard. He was even galloping and springing into the air like a little deer! There were people outside riding their bikes, so Crash and Genny had to run to the fence and investigate. Genny would sit or lay down in the grass and put her nose up to smell the fresh air. When it was time to go they came in and got their snacks.

Chelsea

My sweet Chelsea girl came and snuggled up to my leg right away when I came in tonight! We slowly made our way into the kitchen, since she kept stopping to be pet! She had her dinner right away and sat like such a good girl while I put it in her bowl. She had to stop while I filled her water bowl to accompany me and make sure I wasn't going anywhere without her. I sat with her until she finished. Then she got that excited look in her eye. She knew what was coming next! Chelsea looked at me, then pointed with her nose at the counter where her leash was. It was beautiful out, so we took a nice long walk around the neighborhood. When we got back home we sat outside for a few minutes. She got excited when a boy rode his bike past the yard, and went running along next to him! She went inside and asked for a treat. She got a couple! I turned on her music and gave her a yummy rawhide to work on after I left. She's such a good girl!

Crash & Genny

This morning Genny was prancing around the living room with her piggy toy. I let them go play outside for awhile. It was slightly cooler this morning compared to yesterday, so they were ready to come back in after awhile. Crash was running around, then would stop in his tracks to listen to the cows moo-ing. Genny wandered around and explored, then laid down for awhile. They both came in and had their treat. Next, Crash gave me his kisses while Genny was getting her back scratched. Crash started trying to tackle me and tried to get Genny to play too! Afterwards, we spent some time playing fetch with the piggy toy. Whenever Crash would get it, he'd shake it all about! I let them both go back outside for a bit so Crash could run off some of his energy. He sure did! He zoomed all the way to the back of the yard, ran to the door and back again. This evening was nice and warm out, so we spent most of our visit outside. Crash had fun racing around! He would run back and forth to each side of the yard to stop and listen to the sounds of other dogs and anything else he heard. Sometimes Genny would even join in! They both ran around, then goofed around with each other. Genny eventually found her spot in the grass to just relax and enjoy the nice evening! They came back inside and snuggled up with me for a few minutes before they got their bedtime snack.

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon was another gorgeous day for a walk! Benny was getting so excited while we were still in the house. He could hear the neighbor dogs barking, so he was raring to go! It was a pretty quiet day for us again, just soaked up the nice warm sunshine as we walked. Benny paused at one of his friend's houses today to see if she would come to the fence. But she must not have been outside. They always stop and stare at each other for a second before they start getting excited and talk to each other! Kota and Benny both got pretty warm on their walk again today. Once we got home, Benny had some water and cooled off while Kota went outside to finish going potty quick.

Crash & Genny

Crash and Genny met me at the front door earlier today. At first Crash let out a bark, then they realized it was me and tails started wagging! Genny went right to her basket and grabbed out her piggy toy. It was so nice out already, so we spent the whole time outside. They ran around and did their business, then came back to me to be pet. Later, they lounged around in the grass. Crash got up and tried to get Genny to wrestle around with him. The ground seemed to have dried up quite a bit, so we didn't have any muddy paws! Before I left I gave them each a treat. This evening was still nice and warm out. So, after getting there, we all spent our visit outside, listening to the chirping of frogs and other critters! Crash ran around to check out all the sounds he'd hear. Genny found a comfy spot to curl up in the grass. Later, Crash decided to curl up next to his sister. So cute! We came back inside and I wiped their paws off. I got my kisses for the night! They got their treat and Genny was starting to work on her dinner as I left.

Today was another great day for a walk! I noticed the gate was open when I got there, so I tried to get it shut. The wind was too strong and kept blowing it open! It was a pretty quiet day for our us. Benny said hi to all his friends as we passed by. Kota was busy chasing after plastic bags that blew by in the wind. They actually got hot on their walk today! I think spring might finally be here, I hope! When we got home they both had a big drink of water and laid down to cool off. I gave Kota some ice cubes in her bowl before I left.

Buckley, Chloe, J.R., & Tizzy

Everyone heard me coming down the hallway today! JR began barking as I was letting them out, then they all joined in while they zoomed down the hallway! They each had to say hi and smell me before they ran off and went potty. What a gorgeous day for them to play outside! JR was chasing after leaves as they twirled around in the wind above him. They all explored around the yard, and every once in awhile would come running back to me! It would only take one to bark and head my way, then the whole pack would join. Later Buck and Chloe curled up in the shade by the door while the kids played. Tizzy kept grabbing onto the trees and looking up like she was going to climb up and get something! Then JR was interested and looked up in the tree too. I couldn't figure out what they were looking at, but it kept them occupied for quite awhile! Chloe and Buck took turns sitting next to me and getting their backs scratched. When I'd stop petting one and start to pet the other, they'd scold me! They're so funny. A yellow dog came to visit them today. Everyone ran to the fence and they all barked at each other. Eventually he went on his way and the pups all went back to their exploring. Buck decided to hop on the patio table and smell the wind! I brought everyone back inside to cool off for awhile and have a drink. I gave them each a treat while they were in the kitchen. They went potty quick one last time while I filled their toys with a little peanut butter. The babies went right in their kennels. Actually they both went in the same one at first! Buck didn't want to go back to his room at first and was comfy on his couch upstairs. I went up and he came down with me and went right to work on his peanut butter when he got there.

Dakota & Benny

It was such a nice afternoon to go for our walk! The snow had all melted from the sidewalks and everything is back to normal. Kota did her "woo-woo" while I got them both hooked up and ready to go. Benny was happy to see all his friends outside again! Kota was a little bird hunter today. She would watch the Robins and Pigeons, then try to chase them. We got our nice long walk in, then I cleaned them up once we got back home. Kota had a little lunch while Benny rolled over next to me and got his back scratched!

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I let the boys outside to play for awhile. Sugar didn't feel like coming out right away. Jimmy would run laps around the yard, then come running up to me to be pet! He and Buddy both explored around for awhile. Later, Sugar decided she wanted to go out. She quick did her business then wanted back in. It was still cloudy and damp outside, so I kept them in but let them have the run of the house.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

Jimmy came and said hi when I came in the door tonight. Buddy was sitting on the bed, and I found Sugar wearing her little poncho! You should make a little jacket out of that blanket for her. She's already got holes for her head and a leg! Haha! I let the boys out potty while I got their meds ready. Charlie bird was sitting on his perch outside his cage. When I walked over, he let himself back in through one of the dish doors. I gave Buddy his meds first tonight and let the other two surround him to put the pressure on! He gobbled up his food as quick as he could with no problems. Yay! Jimmy came and snuggled up with me for a bit. While he was giving me kisses I had to laugh at his garlic breath!

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon Kota was singing to me and Benny was hopping around excitedly, ready for their walk! We were able to get our longer walk in today. The snow had mostly melted on the sidewalks, except for the hills by driveways where people shoveled. Kota would just spring right over them! Benny would take his time, assess the situation, and find the lowest point to cross over. It was pretty funny to watch! Later, he attempted Kota's approach and hopped over. But, he couldn't jump nearly as far, so he landed right on top and sunk in a little! Kota climbed up onto a huge pile we passed by and helped herself to some snow. Benny saw that she was eating something, so he climbed his way up and tried some too! As we started getting close to home, we walked in the street in my attempt to dry them out a little. Kota decided she still wanted to walk in the snow and would jump into any puddles she could! I dried them both off once we got back home. Later this afternoon I let the pups out in the backyard to play. Benny quick did his business, found a ball and was ready to come back in. Kota came in and rolled around in my lap. Goofy girl! She was ready to go back out again shortly, and spent some time exploring around. Benny came to snuggle up with me and get his back rubbed! He dropped his ball and nudged it to me to throw for him. Later Kota came inside and went crazy when I started squeaking the ball! She zoomed around and hopped up and over the couch. I tossed the ball for Benny and she went after it too. Benny was too quick though! She stood and looked at me, then all of a sudden the other blue ball rolled to her feet. Benny must have said, "Here take that one instead!". They crack me up!

Auggie and Pattie

This afternoon, Auggie met me with a soft meow as I came into the house. I found him laying on the couch, relaxing and enjoying the soft blanket. I could hear Pattie in the bedroom, but she didn't come out to say hello! It was soft food day today and as soon as I got out the bowls, Auggie jumped off the couch and wandered over to the yummy food! He enjoyed his food while I cleaned up the litter boxes! When I came back out, Auggie was resting on the stairway! He put his little head through the iron bars to get a scratch! We then sat on the step and I gave him some love and attention! At one point, he stood up and put his head to my head, almost in a headbutt! I thanked him for a fun time and told him to say goodbye to Pattie for me!

Auggie and Pattie

As I turned the key and entered the house, the familiar sound of bells jingling greeted me! I walked through and found Auggie laying the on the floor in the living room! He stood up and said hello with a little "meow"! He then laid back down on the floor, rolled over and used his claws to pull himself all over the rug! It was so funny to watch! He then followed me into the kitchen to help me fill up the food and water dishes! We then went upstairs to see if we could say hello to Pattie, but Auggie stopped half way up the stairway and laid down on the step to purr. With no luck upstairs, I headed back down and stopped to give Auggie some scratches. I asked him to tell Pattie I said hello! See you two tomorrow!
