Buckley, Chloe & Bootsie

Today Buck and Chloe started barking when they heard me come inside. They raced me down to the sliding door, and zoomed out to chase after the birds settled in the grass. Bootsie was laying on the sidewalk, sunning himself. He gave me a big stretch and a meow hello. Buck and Chloe ran around for a bit, then they relaxed under their tree. We were going to head inside for them to get a bite to eat, but I had a hard time cleaning off Chloe's toes. So instead, I brought their food and water dishes outside for them to work on. Buckley snacked a little bit, but Chloe was more interested in the birds. Bootsie was enjoying some attention time with me. Buckley saw that and decided he had better come get some chest scratches too! Later Buck went to investigate under one of the other trees in the yard. Chloe and Bootsie snuggled up to me in the shade for a bit.

Buckley, Chloe & Bootsie

Today Buck had to stop and sniff at the other animal smells on me before he headed down the stairs. The rain had stopped for us by the time I got there. I saw some birds outside when I got to the door, and the pups got excited. They went shooting out the door as soon as it opened! Bootsie was right there to see me today. He meowed at me to pet him, and followed me around. Buck had fun rolling around in the grass. He got all nice and wet, then came by me for attention! He's so funny. Chloe sat at her post below the tree, watching for any birds or squirrels. We headed in for a bit so they could get a drink and a few bites to eat. Buckley saw the basket of treats on the table right away. He used the arm of the chair to stand up and get a closer look until I caught him! I gave them each one before we headed outside. Chloe went back to her tree and Buck helped her watch for a bit. He eventually got bored and found a toy to lay down and play with. They each got another treat before I left.

Sadi & Stormy

Today Sadi was sitting in the hallway when I walked in. She came and followed me as I put the mail on the counter. I saw miss Stormy was out lounging on her chair on the patio. I walked out there for a minute and she hopped down. She started rolling around on the ground near me, stretching her legs out. She and Sadi followed me into the kitchen while I got their food ready. Stormy was feeling kind of lovey today and was rubbing up against my legs! The girls followed me into their room and Stormy got working on eating. I scooped up Sadi to give her her medications. Her left eye looked a bit cloudier today, so I will stop by later to give her another dose of the ointment. Sadi came into the living room after she finished eating for her daily chin scratches. Stormy even wandered by once in awhile to sniff at me, and she brushed up against me as she passed. She eventually went to go lay out on her chair on the patio again.
