Mandy & Aeryn

Mandy and Aeryn met me in the living room early this morning. Even though they were tired, both greeted me with a wagging tail! They then headed for the door, ready to go out. It was a quick potty and then back inside to have breakfast and their morning treat. I snapped a few pictures as they patiently waited for their snack! The morning was a little brisk, so I tucked them back in for a few more hours, so we could let the sun warm us up. A few hours later, I returned to barking dogs waiting at the door! We headed straight for the back door and out we went! We played outside and enjoyed the beautiful morning. The neighbor dog came over with the ball, wanting to share it with the girls! I caught a few cute pictures of the girls playing in the yard before I left for the afternoon. An hour later, I returned to let them in as the thunder sounded and the clouds rolled in. Later that afternoon, we took advantage of the rainy day and played with the stuffing-less toys and the orange ball! At one point, Mandy and Aeryn were playing tug-o-war with the blue animal; it was a blast. Then all three toys were by Aeryn and you could see the dilemma in her eyes and she tried to figure out which toy she was going to choose. We were able to get outside to enjoy some fresh air later in the evening, after enjoying some dinner and fresh water. I tucked them in and said goodnight!

Caesar

This morning Caesar was laying in the same spot that I had left him last night. He got up when I came in and did a big stretch! He followed me into the kitchen and waited for his yummy breakfast. He nibbled away while I gave him his meds. We sat in our spot again and he got lots of attention. He rubbed his head against my knee while I pet him. He would leave every now and again to get another bite to eat. Then later he decided he wanted to curl up in his chair that he's not supposed to sit on! This evening Caesar came walking to me as I came in. There was a constant beeping sound since the power went out, but I figured it out and shut it off. Caesar got his meds, then he worked on his supper for a bit. Afterwards, he walked over to our spot, rolled to his side and waited for me to come pet him! I rubbed his back and pet his head until it was time to go.

Shelly, Dakota, Buddy, Clover, Mickey, Emma & Junior

This morning I let everyone out right away when I got there. Dakota and Buddy were just bouncing around outside! Shelly ran around for a bit too. I let Dakota lead the way around the yard. Little stinker... tried to sneak under the fence with me attached to the other end of his leash! I kept him away from the fence after that! I was talking to Shelly and Buddy must have heard me. All of a sudden, I saw him barreling towards me as fast as he could from the other end of the yard! He's so silly. Later I saw him carrying around a shingle he must have found. We played outside for most of the time this morning. Shelly was doing a little dance by the door and singing to me that she was ready to go in. We all headed in and they got their treats. I took a couple apples out to the horses this morning too. Junior was very curious and came right up to me after I went into the pasture. Emma came to investigate after she saw him crunching away on his snack. She let me pet her for a bit. I gave Mickey his too, but he was a little shy yet. This evening Shelly, Dakota and Buddy were able to spend most of the time outside since the rain had let up. Dakota kept trying to take us over to his spot in the fence and even cried when I wouldn't let him! I noticed a dog at two neighbors down. Maybe he's going to visit a friend? Buddy was running around with sticks and even tried to pull a huge branch out of the burn pile! He was having a blast running around. Shelly ran back and forth along the house a couple times, then sat by the gate and enjoyed the evening air. I went to fill the water trough and visited with the horses a little. No one really wanted to stay by me too long. But, when I walked back toward the hose, I noticed I had a shadow! Little Junior was following me, but would stop if I turned around. So curious! The pups all went inside to have their treats and dinner. I looked around and found Clover sleeping behind the couch! I visited with Clover, who just watched me, then put the pups to bed and gave them their bedtime snack.
