Rusty, Ruby & the gang

This morning I only got a couple barks as I walked in the door. I grabbed the leash and took Ruby outside. After she did her business, I let her off the leash and she headed back in. HeyDay was lounging in the grass with Chloe nearby, both watching us. Rusty and I soon followed Ruby and I got them their breakfast. While they ate I got the turtles some fresh food and water, along with Salem. I haven't seen Salem yet, so she must hide when she hears me come in. By the time I finished, the pups wanted to stay in. I sat on the floor in the living room and both dogs came running over. Ruby was quite the bouncy one this morning! She and Rusty started playing and wrestling around. This afternoon Ruby was ready to head outside and even came willingly without the leash! Rusty ran around to find his ball and brought it to me. After Ruby went potty, she sat by me for some back scratches, while Rusty got his game of fetch in. Later, Ruby wandered back in the house, visiting us occasionally when she felt like it. Rusty got tired in our game, so he took to sniffing about the yard. He would get a second wind once in awhile and would get a few more throws in. The other three walked around their yard and got a drink from the pond. Chloe wandered over to watch us now and again. This evening Rusty and Ruby raced me to the back door. Ruby was a bouncy lil girl again! Between her bouncing and Rusty nudging her out of the way when she comes by me for back scratches, she's a hard lady to take a picture of! I walked out and gave Justin, Chloe and HeyDay their snacks. Ruby was sitting on the porch, waiting for me to return. She spent a little time outside with us. Soon, we headed in so they could eat their dinner. Ruby scarfed hers down, then walked by and eyed Rusty's bowl a couple times. Once Rusty finished, we headed out for a long game of fetch. In between catches, he'd take a break to sniff at stuff and roll around in the grass.
