Cate, Carson & Bella

This evening I came in and read mom's notes. I went to let Cate and Carson out first. They were too excited! It took a little bit for them to calm down, then they went out for me. I fed the other two, while they were busy outside. Cate barked when she was ready to come in. Next, it was their turn to eat. I let Gracie and Sassy out. Gracie wandered around the dog room, while I gave Sassy her drops and took her out. She was quick to do her business! Then, I took Gracie out for her turn. I got the girls a little water in their cages, since they didn't spend long outside. While Cate and Carson went out again, I went to see Bella. All the kiddos got their treat when they went to bed.

Shadow

This morning Shadow wandered into the kitchen. He followed me closely, all around the house. I got him some new food, then we headed to our spot. He curled up on the couch behind my head. He rested his head against mine and purred away. He's so sweet. He sat on my lap for awhile, then went to snack on some breakfast. Later, he was getting a little frisky with his pillow! Haha. This evening, he helped me get his snacks and pick out a couple new cans of food. He nibbled a little on one plate, while I turned on lights and scooped his box. When I finished, he snuggled up with me for awhile. He had that look in his eye, so I didn't quite trust him nuzzling the back of my head! Haha! I brought out his feather toy and he went crazy with that. He rolled around and tackled it. As I was leaving, Shadow went to snack on the other food I left out for him.

Taz & Clyde

This morning it was quite foggy outside. On the radio they said it was freezing fog! When I arrived, the boys met me at the door with their tails wagging. We got them all hooked up and ready for our walk. We took a decent walk this morning. Clyde got all excited when a car went by and made a plastic bag fly in the air as it passed. Haha! When we got home, the boys walked me to the garbage can to deposit their bags. Then, they got dried off and we went in for their breakfast. This afternoon it had gotten very nice out! I let the boys outside, while I got them each a chew. They took their snack and looked for the perfect spot to lay. We spent the whole time outside since it was so nice.

Diesel & Odin

This morning the boys must have been fast asleep when I arrived. I opened the door, then they finally got up and came out to see me! They lined up in their spots for breakfast. Diesel made me laugh, because he was walking in circles around his bowl as he ate. I think he was trying to keep Odin from getting too close. I got them each a cookie this morning, then I went to check their water. It was frozen again since it was cooler out this morning, so I broke up all the ice. The boys took their drinks, then they each came over for some attention. They sure love their chest and back scratches! This evening, as I pulled in the driveway, I saw Diesel and Odin racing to the gate. They were happy to see me! Or they were hungry. Haha. We went to their house to get their dinner. Odin was so excited to eat that he spilled his bowl over and kibbles went flying everywhere! He got it all cleaned up though. Diesel was busy with his food, so he didn't even notice. They both sat for me for a cookie after dinner. After they snuggled up against me for some attention, they got into a playful mood. Diesel started to bounce along after Odin and they'd wrestle around. Silly pups!

Flax

It was a foggy morning today. As I pulled up, I saw Flax was wandering about the front yard. He walked up to my car and followed me inside. Boney was still sleeping on Flax's bed, by himself. I got them some fresh water and applied some ointment to Flax's cheek. When I came back out from putting the ointment back, Boney was laying upside down between my shoes. He swung his paws up in the air and tried to attack my toes as I tried to slip my shoes back on! Haha! He's such a cutie. I noticed Flax had wandered back outside again. This afternoon I saw that Boney was the one exploring, as I neared the house. Flax was on his bed, sound asleep. I touched him gently, and he woke up. He instantly decided he was going to head outside to explore. Eventually, he made his way to relax on his bed on the back porch, in the warm sun. Boney was following me around and being silly. We played with some sticks, then he was busy watching a flock of birds in the yard. This evening, the boys were snuggled together on the bed. Boney hopped up right away and helped me get dinner ready. He watched me open a can of food for him, but he waited until I started to open Flax's. He even stole a chunk out of the bowl to eat! Haha.

Gracie, Emma, Molly & the kitties

This morning I let miss Molly and Emma out when I arrived. Emma didn't want to stay out long, since it was cold and foggy out this morning. Henry and Smudge hopped up on the table by me to get some attention. Once the girls came in, I let Gracie out for her turn. Molly and Emma ate their breakfast, then danced around by me for some pets! Emma was in a funny mood this morning. She went over and grabbed a stuffed bunny toy and shook it all around. This afternoon it had gotten sunny and quite warm out. I let the older gals have plenty of time to play outside. Since it was so nice, I decided to let Gracie spend the afternoon outside. This evening, I let miss Gracie in and the other two out. Since Gracie didn't need a potty break, I decided we should take a short walk. When we got back, I kept her on her leash a little longer, so I could love on her! I pet her for awhile, and she even relaxed enough to lay next to me. When the girls came back in, I got them all their dinner before bed.
