Kita & Kitten

Kita barked twice at me as I was unlocking the door this morning! She ran back and forth to the living room twice, turning in circles as she got to the door. As soon as I hooked her leash on the collar, off she went! I refreshed the water, cleaned Kitten's litter box and filled both food dishes up then went to say good morning to Kitten. She was relaxing under the bed and stayed there as we chatted. Kita ran around outside all morning, enjoying the cool morning air. I had to come and get her, as it was time for me to go! I called her name and she came running around the corner. Kita had a great time outside today, and this evening was no different! But before she went out, I asked her if she was excited that mom and dad were coming home soon and she said "YES", just as I snapped the picture!! She spent the entire time outside, allowing for some quality time with Kitten! Kitten sat on my lap the entire time, so the picture I took was a close-up! We had a good time tonight!

Scout, Tiger, Ginger and Scotch

As I walked up the driveway, I could hear my friends announcing my arrival! All three greeted me at the gate, it was so good to see them again! I opened the gate and thought they would follow me outside, but it took a few trips back and forth to get all three outside! Ginger went first, followed by Tiger and then Scout! We stayed outside for a little bit, Scout and Tiger running around the yard. Ginger, however, was ready to get back inside as soon as possible! All three gathered at the door and back inside we went! I gave the dogs a fresh bowl of water and filled their food bowls, then I went out to talk to Scotch! I got a warm greeting and stayed to give some love and attention, I was even able to get a cute snapshot of Scotch! After I filled the food and water dish, I said goodbye to Scotch and headed back inside to give the dogs some treats! As soon as I grabbed the treat bag, all three raced over to be the first in line! We then sat down and took turns scratching and petting the dogs! It was time for me to go, so I said my goodbyes!

Benny & Dakota


Benny announced my arrival with a welcome bark and Dakota sang from her cage! As I let her out, Benny made laps around the couch! I put Dakota's leash and collar on and finally Benny came to a stop, just long enough for me to put his collar and leash on! They both pulled me to the door and out we went! It was a cloudy afternoon with a cool breeze, but we enjoyed our time! Friendly Benny said hello to all the neighborhood dogs, while Dakota kept us at a pretty fast pace! She doesn't like to stop as much as Benny! There was a time, however, when Dakota stopped and Benny was busy looking the other way and ran right into Dakota's back side! It was so hilarious! We made our way back to the house, Benny on the right and Dakota on the left side! When we got home, we did head outside to the back yard to play fetch and Benny decided that he was going to bring in the purple bone today instead of the green ball!
