Titus & Angel

This morning I headed in to see the pups. I made sure to put their collars on right away. Titus made it a little challenging, as he was bouncing around excitedly. Finally, he settled and I got his collar on so we could go outside. I gave them a little time to do what they needed, then we headed back in for breakfast. Titus got to work right away. Miss Angel laid on her bed, staring at me with those eyes and wagging her tail. Suddenly, she popped up and came over for a back scratching. I told her she needed to go eat, so finally she did. Titus was finished, so he was ready to play! He squatted down on his front legs, then jumped up and tossed his head around playfully. What a silly boy! When Angel finished, he got his wish and we headed back outside. Later this afternoon, the sky grew dark and I was watching isolated storms pop up on the radar. I headed over to let the pups back inside, so Angel wouldn't be scared. This evening, the pups were ready to go outside. We spent most of the time outside playing, since it was pretty nice out. Titus rolled over for some belly rubs. When it was Angel's turn, he kept trying to mess with her. He was quite the little instigator tonight! Angel got some fetch time in. Titus was busy nudging her and trying to get her upset. So, I chased around with him instead. Eventually, they relaxed and laid on the patio by me, getting some attention. When it was time, I got them their dinner and some fresh water before bed.

Sadie, Sassy & Ninja

This morning I let the girls out for a potty break. Miss Ninja ran in while I opened the garage for her. It was pretty nice out again this morning. I had the girls come inside to work on their breakfast a bit, then we would head out to play. Ninja had made herself comfortable on one of the stools next to me. After Sadie and Sassy had eaten a bit, they zoomed outside to enjoy the morning. Sadie was having a blast chasing all the birds flying around. She ran towards the bush in the yard and made sure to scare them all out! Sassy just hung back and gave them her big, scary bark. Haha! Sadie and I had had so much fun playing fetch with her apple yesterday, that we decided to play again today. She brought her toy over, sometimes playing tug of war with it, before finally dropping it for me to throw. Sadie raced after it, now and again with Sassy right on her heels. She grabbed the apple, gave it a few good shakes with her head, then would toss it playfully in the air to herself. Eventually, she would bring it to me to start all over again. I sent miss Ninja back outside when it was time for the ladies to go back in. This afternoon as I opened the door and the girls ran out, I noticed a big orange tom cat out of the corner of my eye, next to the stairs. Sadie had already spotted him and chased him under the shed. I couldn't quite tell since it was only briefly that I saw him, but it looked like something was wrong with his jaw. I didn't get the chance to see him again before I left. Ninja had wandered out and laid under the patio chairs to stretch her big tummy. I stayed a bit longer this visit since it was quite nice out and the girls were having fun outside. They will be very happy to see mom and dad come home. We sure had fun!
