Riley, Hunter & Sadie

This morning a sleepy Hunter met me at the door. The girls came wandering out from the bedroom. They did their thing while I got breakfast ready. They came inside and Hunter ate his food. The girls weren't really interested, even with my encouragement. Hunter wanted to play after he finished, and kept standing over by where his toy was "hidden" and would bark. "C'mon, its right in here. Let's play!" This afternoon Hunter sure knew what time it was! He was bouncing up and down and barking excitedly. I let them all out while I grabbed his ball. We played a long game of fetch until he was getting warm. We headed in for him to cool off a bit, and went out again later. Riley was being all silly and was carrying Sadie's food dish around again. She wasn't eating the food, but was just taking the dish to different spots and playfully pushing it around! We headed outside again for awhile. I noticed Hunter had a bit of diarrhea and made sure to give him some extra time out there. This evening I walked in and noticed Hunter had had a booboo in the house. I put the pups outside quick, then got started on picking up. When they were all watching me through the window, I let them in and got their dinner ready. I went back to cleaning and later gave the pups one more potty break before bedtime.

Sadi & Stormy

This morning I walked in and started mixing some food for the girls. Stormy heard me and came wandering in from the patio. She came in the kitchen and started rubbing up against my legs. She was quite talkative this morning too! I guess she was a hungry girl. I gave her dose of medicine quick, then she followed me with the bowls of food. She got right to work, while I went to get Sadi. Sadi was snoozing away under the foot of the bed. I got her all cleaned up and gave her her medicine as well. I sat her down by the food and she turned around and headed for her spot in the living room. She purred away while she was brushed. Sadi rubbed her head against my arm or knee while I got her back. She's such a cutie pie! Stormy was grooming herself and laying in the sunlight coming through the windows. She eventually wandered off to the bedroom again. I took Sadi back in by the food before I left, and Stormy growled at her! I noticed Stormy had already eaten almost all the canned food from both bowls (I had even given them some extra today). So, Sadi went back out to the living room. I grabbed a bowl and got some more food in it and placed it in front of Sadi. She ate a good amount of that.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie, Blackie & Sparkles

This morning Blackie wandered off to explore when I opened the door for him. I saw Sparkles in the kitchen when I walked in. She made sure to stay out of the way when I let the pups out. Once all three were out doing their business, I came in to get their breakfast ready. Sparkles was following me around and meowing at me. She was quite talkative today! I stopped to give her a little attention. Then, I went out to bring the little ones back in and dry their feet off. They came in and everyone got to work on their breakfast. Sparkles sat with me for a few back scratches, until Hudson finished and took over her spot! Zel finished and decided to chew on her bone a bit. When Gabbie was done, she hopped up on the couch behind me and was trying to crawl on top of my head! After they all had a chance to get a drink, they got to go out and play for awhile. Blackie came back to visit me this time.
