Oliver & May

This morning the pups met me at the door sleepily. Oliver gave me a slobbery smooch when I bent down to pet May. First I got out their breakfast for them. May ate hers up instantly. Oliver wanted to wait a few minutes. I put his food out again and he finally got to it. May was right there vacuuming up all his dropped kibbles. Once he was done, I gave him his cheese. He ate it in one bite. This afternoon, I was surprised the pups didn't jump me at the door like usual. I found May sleeping in the computer room on a puppy bed, and Oliver came out of the hallway. I sat down on the couch and Oliver jumped up with his upper torso on top of me, sniffing my face and hair. I was cracking up! When he was bored with that, he wandered off outside. Then May took his spot and climbed up on the couch next to me. Oliver spent most of the time outside after that, barking at random people walking by. This evening the pups ran to greet me at the door, barking and wagging their tails excitedly. They followed me straight to the kitchen, then to the pantry so I could fill up their food bowls. They were pretty anxious to eat their dinner. They gobbled up their food in a minute, then May went and got a really long drink. Oliver was pretty paranoid the rest of the night. He kept randomly running to the window and barking at the darkness. May would look at me like "What's he doing?" Eventually he scuttled away and crawled on the bed. Meanwhile May kept me company in the living room.



Baxter & Bubba

This morning when I arrived, I didn't see either Baxter or Bubba right away. I figured they were outside or in the bedroom. First I started filling Bubba's food, then all of the sudden I see a little orange head peeking around the corner. Bubba heard food, and apparently he was hungry. I set up his food for him and he hopped up and started chowing down while I took care of his litter. Then Baxter wandered out of the bedroom to say hello. I gave him a big hug and he wagged his cute little tail. After that I sat with him while he ate a little bit. He kept turning to me and making sure I was still there, then he would go back to eating. Once he was done, I checked on Bubba. He hopped down and started rubbing up on my pants and meowing at me. I gave him a little attention before sitting down with Baxter in the living room. Then before I left, I gave Baxter a yummy treat.
