Baxter & Bubba

Bubba was right inside the door when I arrived. He followed me around anxiously, wanting his food. I didn't see Baxter this time, so I looked out back. Sure enough, he was laying out in the yard. He saw me and came running. I gave Bubba his food, then sat with Baxter while he ate. He liked the company. Bubba kept walking around us when he was done eating. He would meow and brush up on my legs, wanting some attention.


Jimmy, Sugar, Buddy & Charlie

This afternoon the pupppies ran outside with me. It was super windy out, but the sunlight made it bearable. They didn't mind it for a bit, but we eventually went inside. It got so windy, I thought they might blow away! Instead, we played in the living room. Jimbo just wanted to cuddle and give me kisses, while Sugar ate, and Buddy scratched at my leg, demanding attention too. This evening the pups and I all went outside for awhile. It was still super windy out, but we didn't mind. Later we headed in for their meds. Jimmy ran into the other room and came galloping back with his Santa bone. We played fetch with that. Buddy used me as a ladder to climb up to the couch, then stood on my shoulder to give me lots of kisses! He cried later on, wanting to play with Jimmy's toy too. I gave it to him for a little bit. He went crazy squeak squeaking away! I found another of the exact same toy for Jimmy to play with. Of course that wasn't as good as the first one! We headed outside for a little bit once more before bed.


Miranda

Miranda was so eager to get out today. She saw the sun was out, and she was fully prepared to play. We got outside and I threw her toys for her. Everytime I would slowly go for another toy, she would run as fast as she could just to see if she could beat me to it. After running around for a bit, we sat down in the sun. She took a seat next to me and got tons of loving. She was so soft and cuddley.


Buckley, Chloe, Tizzy, JR & Bootsie

Something very interesting in tree, barking * dancing trying to jump up In it, all four staring

Cirlcing like sharka
Squirreled taunted them tizzy jump high up tree

This afternoon Bootsie was sitting in the window sunning himself when I came to see the pups. They all raced out to wait at the back door. As soon as they got outside, they all gathered around one tree. Buck had come over for a quick back scratch, but then raced back to the tree. There must have been something interesting in there today! All four of them were staring up and barking, then dancing around the tree, circling it like sharks! I wandered over to get a closer look. Then, I saw Tizzy go running at, then up the side of the tree! She got up as high as maybe three times her height! I couldn't believe it. It was like something you'd see in a movie. Then, I noticed a little squirrel on the side of the tree. He was taunting the dogs! It would run down the tree to where it was definitely within their reach. As they would jump up at him, he'd quickly run back to just safely outside their reach. It kept doing this several times! That kept the pups busy for most of their time outside today. Tizzy got herself pretty tired, so she had to take a little splash in the water bucket to cool down. Eventually, we headed inside and they each got a treat and their peanut butter snacks.

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

Today Roxy, Dilly and Biscuit all ran outside with me. I was just finishing the last couple bites of my lunch, so I had an audience! All three sat politely by me, each hoping for me to drop something. As soon as I finished, they all ran off to go explore. It was super windy out today. Dilly got very excited every time something would fly by on the outside of the fence! Roxy eventually came over and wanted to play her game of fetch. We did that until it was time for miss Bert to come out. She pranced outside and grabbed her little purple squeaky toy, running around with that for a bit. Bert joined Dilly in checking things out under the shed for awhile. Later, the girls had fun wrestling around with each other. Bert would playfully poke at Dilly, while still holding onto her squeaker. Then Dilly would get back by playfully grabbing onto Bert's legs! Biscuit was content by me, getting his back scratched while the girls played.




Cali

Today Cali did her rolling around for me when I got in. She sat by the entrance to the kitchen to watch me get her food ready. After I cleaned her box and gave her fresh water, I came back to find her loving up on my purse! She was rolling around and rubbing her face on it. Silly girl! Cali was much more playful today! She climbed up in her chair to relax for a bit. I got her string and tossed it up to her. She rolled around and swatted at it for awhile. Then, she hopped down by me again. Cali went to sit by her little Garfield toy in the kitchen. I tossed an end of the string towards her. She turned around, squatted down and ran around the opposite side of the post to sneakily pounce on it! She had fun doing that for a long time. Then, it was time to take a dinner break. After eating a little more, she went and sat by the patio door, then came back for more play time.
