Bailey

Tonight there were two rainbows outside when I came to see Bailey! I let her outside for a little bit. It was sprinkling out, so she did her business, then came back by me on the patio. We headed inside and she danced around, ready for dinner. After she polished off her bowl, she ran back to the kitchen and sang her "howrooroo" at me for a treat. I got her one, which she took to her chair to work on. When she finished she was being goofy and rolled around in the chair! We headed outside again later and she ran around in the rain a little. We came in again and I got her a couple more treats before I left.



Luke & Maycie

This afternoon I let Luke and Maycie out to play. Luckily the storms hadn't arrived yet, and it was pretty nice out. Luke wanted his ball right away, so I got it down for him. He didn't want to give it up at first, but eventually he wanted to play some fetch. One time I threw it and he didn't see where it went. It took him forever to find it! Maycie was busy exploring around the yard. Later, we headed in for them to eat their lunch. Once we got back outside, Luke played some more fetch. Maycie had found a big toad to play with! She kept chasing after it and barking at it. This evening it was raining out when I arrived. Luke got his ball and we started playing. Maycie disappeared in the darkness, exploring again. I saw her checking things out by the shed a few times. Luke decided to fake me out towards the end of our game of fetch. He'd drop the ball, "Here, ya go", then quickly grab it as I reached for it, "Haha! Gotcha!" They each got a carrot snack before I left. I checked on Spiketail too, and turned her light off for the night.



Toby, Tyson & Morgan

Today when I arrived, Tyson was right there to greet me. He followed me around until I turned on the sink for him! Toby was sprawled out on the bed, awaiting his belly rub. Since I knew bad weather was coming today, Toby and I went for our walk right away. It was nice weather out for the time being, so we got a nice long walk in. When we got back home, we spent the rest of the time playing in the backyard while we could. Toby and I chased each other around a bit, then he wandered off to explore. This evening, Toby was lounging in bed again. This time both kitties came running out to see me. Morgan was especially craving some attention! It was raining out tonight, so we weren't able to go for a walk again. I let Toby out long enough to do his business, then he came in for dinner. Afterwards, we played with some of his toys. I had him running circles around me! Morgan snuck in some attention time whenever Toby wasn't looking. Before I left I got Toby his long awaited cookie!



Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

The cleaning gals were here this afternoon, so the boys got to play outside for a long time. They both came running to the fence, excited to see me! I went out back by them for awhile. Buddy was so snuggly today! He kept climbing in my lap and rubbing his face on my arms. Then he'd nudge my hand to pet him. Meanwhile, Jimmy was on the other side of me trying to get my attention as well! He kept taking breaks though, going off to go run laps along the fence with the neighbor chocolate lab. I got the boys each a cookie before I left.
