Dakota & Benny

Benny was zooming around the living room carrying his little green ball today. Kota gave me lots of kisses and woo-woos as I got them hooked up and ready to go. It was just perfect out this afternoon, nice and sunny and not too hot or cold. We got our nice long route in. A little boy coming out of his house shouted to his mom, "Mommy! Look at the cute puppies!". Kota kept stopping and looking back at him. Benny said hi to his friends and stared down cars that passed by. Kota was quite the little bird hunter and even scared me! She saw one through a fence next to us, jumped at it, made it fly up and me jump all at the same time! Once we got home they both got a drink and laid down to relax.

Sophie & Roxy

The girls did their little dance by the gate when I pulled in this afternoon. Roxy shot in through the door as soon as I opened it a crack. Guess what she wanted to do! She had to wait a little bit though, while I refilled their water jug. They were patiently waiting for me in the living room! I grabbed the keychain and the excitement started. Sophie and Roxy zoomed all over the living room, chasing the little red light. They had a blast! I gave them each a big bone to work on today after I left. They've been having such nice weather this time!

Baxter & Bailey

This morning Baxter was sleeping on his bed and I could see the top of Bailey's head outside. I walked up to the door and he was just looking around. When he heard me open the door he came running! Bailey worked on eating his breakfast while Baxter was getting attention. Then Baxter decided to go join Bailey! After breakfast they wrestled around in the living room for awhile. Bailey wanted me to play too, so he hopped up on the couch behind me and tackled me! Later the boys both went outside and did a little exploring. Baxter came in and sat by me for his back scratches again after Bailey had laid down for a snooze. This evening there were two little dogs running around in the front yard when I pulled in! I thought they might be the neighbor's so I went and rang the doorbell. But, no one answered. Baxter and Bailey were both looking out the front window at me. Bailey still hadn't chewed anything else up, but this time had found a couple towels that were in the living room. He had gotten the two blankets off the washer and taken them back outside. After I put one blanket away, he grabbed it down again before I could put the other one up, so i scolded him. Little booger! He was good and left it alone after that. I went out and brought some of their toys back inside so he could take them back out instead. Haha! I listened for the neighbor dogs, but didn't hear them this time. Inside, Bailey fetched Baxter's meerkat toy and started playing with it, so Baxter went and grabbed the other end of it! They sort of played tug of war with it until Baxter gave up and wanted his back scratched. Bailey wandered over to the dishes and had some supper, then Baxter nibbled on some too. They both sat by me for some attention the rest of the time. I got them each their bedtime treat and headed outside, where the two little pups started barking at me! They were hanging around between your house and the neighbor's, so I'm positive they must have gotten out. Hopefully their owners will be home soon!

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I checked the front to see if the lawn guys had come. They did and had been there hours ago, so I decided to let the pups stay out! I was finishing up some French fries when I came in, so after the boys and I went outside, they just sat and stared at me! "Can I have one?" After they were gone the boys each found a nice warm spot in the sun to curl up. Later Sugar came out to join us. All three little ones were waiting at the gate, watching me pull in the driveway this evening. Jimmy and Sugar took off towards the back door. We stayed out for a bit longer since it was nice out. Jimmy came over and sat in my lap while the other two decided to have some dinner. Jimmy went over while Buddy was eating, which he didn't like too much. They were good for the most part though, since I didn't have to break them up or anything! We all went inside and got their potatoes and meds ready. They sure get excited for their little treat! Afterwards Jimmy cuddled up with me, while Buddy and Sugar had some more for dinner. I gave them their last treat for the day, then it was off to bed!

Susie & Louis

Susie was basking in the sun and Louis was loving the shade when I arrived today! I gave Louis some scratches and he barked and wagged his tail. I hen walked over to Susie, who wagged her tail and rolled over for some belly rubs! After saying hello, I filled each bowl with fresh food and water. I then went back inside for the chewable vitamins and of course, it was treat day! I gave each their vitamins and then we played out in the yard. This time, I was going to give their treat at the end of my time, so they will play with me instead of enjoy their treats!! Louis ran back and forth between the deck and the yard, while Susie and I laid in the shade. Every once and awhile, he would stop over to say "Hi" and ask his sister to come and play, but she was content in the cool shade! It was time for me to go, so I asked them if they were ready for a treat. They both ran around the yard, each trying to nibble on each other's legs. Susie's nose found the treats, located on top of the grill. She took her treat to the shade, while Louis enjoyed his on the cool patio. See you two tomorrow!


Buckley, Chloe, Tizzy & JR


This afternoon the guys weren't there, so the pups had the yard to themselves. Chloe wasted no time today and made her way into the pool to swim some laps! Tizzy and JR were saying hi to me and trying to claim my lap already! They all ran over to their tree and were busy watching for birds and squirrels. Chloe started rolling around in the grass after her refreshing dip. Buckley decided to go all the way in the pool today. He fished out a leaf from the pool and carried it over to the shed. Then, JR stole it and shredded it up! After that JR decided to go get a couple of his own. Tizzy came and rolled over for a tummy rub. She then went to lay in the shade between the bars of the hammock stand, where that would normally hang. The boys wrestled around for a bit, then Buckley grabbed the big toy and played keep-away from JR. Later we headed inside to cool down. The pups all ran upstairs, so we sat on the couch for a bit. They each wanted my attention so they were all hopping in my lap, pawing at me or singing to me! Bootsie was woken up by all this and headed downstairs. I found him under the blankets again. This time the dogs came in with me and they got him out! Bootsie followed me into the kitchen and hopped up on the counter to help get their peanut butter snacks. Later he meowed at me to follow him and showed me where his food was!
