Chloe

This morning I met miss Chloe at the door and said hi. She went outside, while I went to get her breakfast and bring it out to her. She was so excited! She would dance in front of me, happy for some attention, then would go to her bowl to grab a bite. Back again, this time she wanted some heiny scratches. It was sprinkling out a little this morning, so we spent most of the time under the roof of the patio. I left her outside for the day as requested. It actually turned out to be quite a nice afternoon too! This evening, I saw Chloe standing on top of the storm shelter barking at my car. She had to get a better view to see who was here! Haha. I went out back to say hi. She came in while I got her dinner, then we went back out for awhile. She gobbled down her dinner, then wanted some attention. I tried to get her to go grab her log so we could play, but she just wanted snuggles. When we headed in, she got her yummy cookies.

Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon was another rainy one outside. I let Ruby out and saw Rusty was lounging on the chair in the living room. He hopped down and followed us to the door. Ruby headed out first, with Rusty tagging along behind. He made me laugh today! Once he was out there and saw it was raining, he went right back in through the doggie door! I walked out with Ruby so she would go potty. Once she finished, she raced her way back inside. She had gone to sit in the bedroom again. I went to sit in the front room by Rusty for a bit. This time, Ruby came to join us. She wanted some heiny scratches!

Winston

This afternoon I got Winston ready to go and we went outside. The bags were out, so we wandered over to another station. It was lightly sprinkling when we first got outside, but it quickly started to rain harder. Winston got to stop and say hi to a neighbor, then we made our way back. Winston did his sliding around on the carpet again. What a goofball! He then proceeded to run laps around the house. After he got that out of his system, he went to get his rope. He was all about playing a game of tug today! Haha. I tried to get some fetch in too, but he wouldn't give it up. He was more interested in shredding on his rope.

Eddie & Butler

This afternoon the boys wandered out after Butler got his medicine. It was raining out again, so they hung out on the covered part of the patio at first. Later, they heard a neighbor dog out, so they were racing along the fence line. They got pretty wet today! Later, they went inside to be lazy and take a nap.

Oscar

This afternoon Oscar made sure to come greet me at the door. He danced around for a couple heiny scratches, then we headed outside. It was raining very lightly out today. Oscar laid on the patio by me again and watched the rain. He ventured out a little more this afternoon, since it was light. Then, he decided to lounge out in the grass for awhile. Silly boy. When it was time, I got him all dried off before he came in.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

The kiddos did well overnight and didn't have any accidents. They all met me at the door, excitedly. I had them all go out back right away for a potty break. It was raining again this morning, so they were quick to do their business. Once they all took their turns to get dried off, we headed in for breakfast. Zel went to work on her bone for a little bit when she finished. We went back outside again, but no one really wanted to leave the patio again. Hudson went out to explore this time. Blackie started to bark to go in, so I got everyone dried off again. We hung out inside for a little while before I tucked them back in their beds with a cookie. This evening I could hear the kiddos barking while I got the mail! They knew I was there without even opening any doors yet. Haha. I came in and Blackie met me at the door. I let the others out and Hudson was bouncing up at me, nearly at eye level! We headed outside and they went to do their business. Finally, the rain had stopped for the day. The pups were excited for their dinner tonight. Even Blackie was racing around! They all worked on dinner, but Gabbie was the only one not to finish. I put her bowl up and then we went back out for awhile. Since it wasn't raining, they all did a little exploring. When it was time to go in, I had to go get Zel. She was busy digging a hole to China! Haha.

Sadi & Stormy

This morning Stormy was up and ready to see me in the kitchen. I picked her up for her meds and she wasn't as antsy to get away today. She forgave me pretty quick too! Sadi was at their bowls, looking for food. I delivered their breakfast and she went to work right away. She ate quite a bit! She got her morning meds, then we went to our spot. She got brushed for awhile and enjoyed some chin scratches too. She would rub her face on me knee as I brushed too. Stormy was in a playful mood this morning. We had fun with her shoe string. She would race over and tackle it, then roll around with it, and then run off. Then, she would do it all over again! This evening I didn't see Stormy, but I bet she was probably snoozing out on the patio. Sadi was lounging on the floor in the food room. I got her up for her meds and cleaned her nose up. Then, I tucked her in her cozy bed.
