Jimmy, Buddy, Sugar & Charlie

This evening I released the puppies from their cages and they all bolted out toward the backdoor. Once we were outside, Sugar and Jimmy jumped up and down, demanding my attention. Buddy ran off to take care of business. Once they were all done, they lined up at the door. Sugar was in front, scratching away. I let them back in and it was time for the boys' pills. I watched them practically inhale their potatoes and run off to do something else. Buddy curled up with a bone on one of the puppy beds, Sugar sat with me, and Jimmy kept bringing me his stuffed doggie, wanting me to throw it for him. Jimmy got his last pill before I had to go, then it was bedtime. They all rushed to bed so they could get a yummy treat.

Buckley, Chloe, Tizzy, JR & Bootsie

Today I was greeted with lots of hugs when I opened the door! It's been awhile! They ran to wait for me at the back door, then raced outside. They were tackling me from all angles and giving me kisses! Buck sat with me and got his chest scratched for awhile. Tizzy would zoom by occasionally and want some attention too. Chloe was having a blast rolling around in the patch of snow remaining in the shade by the shed! The others saw how much fun she was having and ran over. Tizzy and JR were even chomping on some snow. Their neighbor friend came outside later, so they all raced to the fence to say hi. Soon, they were all howling in unison! When it was getting close to time, we headed inside. We went to their room and I visited with Bootsie for a bit too. He was rolling around on the chest next to the recliner. He was loving up every second of his attention!



Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon the kiddos were excited to see me. I let them out and we headed for the door. Buddy wanted to bring out his little Christmas bone squeaky. I told him to leave it, so he put it down. But then, he quickly snatched it up and ran out! They all lounged around on the side of the house, enjoying the sunshine. Buddy wandered to the fence to say hi to the puppy next door. Then, Jimmy ran over too! He and the puppy started racing back and forth.


Butter

When I showed up this afternoon, I saw Butter behind the fence wagging her tail crazily and barking, she was so excited. I headed for the door and she beat me to it. I got inside and she jumped up and gave me so many hugs and kisses, I couldn't stop laughing! She ran around me in circles, so excited to have my company. We played with her laser light after that. She ran around and barked eagerly. She eventually decided to lay down for a bit and relax after a nice long drink of water. Then she went out back. She came back in, tail wagging out of control again. She was so happy. I gave her plenty of scratches, she loved it.


Sarge

This afternoon Sarge was so excited to get outside. He was jumping around and demanding I pet him. I finally got him to go do his business in the grass. Then he layed down for a little bit in the sun. After that, we headed back inside so he could get a quick drink. I sat down in the laundry room with him and he attacked me with kisses. He was so snuggly!
