Ginger, Scout, Tiger & Scotch

This morning I met three little sleepy heads in the kitchen. They each got up off their comfy beds to say hi once they saw me. All three followed me to hang out outside for awhile. The neighbor dog next door was out, so they all ran to the fence to see him. It was still a bit on the cool side this morning, so we headed back in. I gave Ginger her meds and Scotch got his yummy canned food snack. Then the pups all got some attention and a couple treats to work on! This afternoon everyone got in line to head outside again. This time a different neighbor dog was out to say hi to. The sun was nice and warm this afternoon. So after a little exploring, Tiger and Scout curled up in the grass. Scout even rolled around in the grass! Ginger found a nice warm spot on the side of the house. Later we took another nice walk! Tiger was having fun grabbing his leash and walking himself. Ginger led the way most of the time, but eventually lagged behind back by Scout. After we got back home I visited with Scotch, who was sleeping in his nice little house. Then everyone got some treats. Ginger started her collection when the others weren't looking! This evening I let the gang out back while I spent some time with Scotch. He kept pawing at me while I pet him. It had gotten cooler out, so the pups didn't stay outside too long. Ginger got her meds and then they all got some treats. Ginger had fun rolling around in the blanket. Silly girl! Scout was being a cute little attention hog, and would paw at my legs for more. Tiger came over occasionally for some pets too. Ginger and I played with her little sheep toy for awhile. She would run up and grab it from me, shake it around and tackle it! She had fun with her toys for quite awhile. When it was time to go they lined up for their bedtime rawhide.

Sammy, Molly, Gracie, Couper & Princess

Five happy puppies greeted me at the door today! They all ran with me as we made our way to the backyard. I got my puppy pile and kisses before they ran off to play. Molly was having a blast rolling around in the grass! Sammy was doing a little exploring while Gracie climbed up in my lap. Couper and Princess were wrestling around on the chair next to me. Later Princess brought up a bunny toy to give to me. She and Sammy got a little sassy when I threw it, so I kept an eye on those two. Molly led the pack and started a race around the yard! Gracie followed close behind. Sammy stopped to explore by the shed and the other two took wrestling breaks! We went inside for their supper and they took turns licking the empty bowls as they waited for Couper to finish. They snuggled up with me some more after dinner and lined up for their treats before I left!

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon Benny picked up his blue ball and started making his laps around the living room. I let Kota out, who started singing to me right away. She snuck some kisses in while I was getting Benny's collar on! It was nice and warm today and a little windy. Kota had fun watching plastic bags float past us! She was busy trying to hunt birds today too. A boxer was out walking its owner, and Benny didn't want them to get too close! We headed back home and they got to run around in the backyard for awhile. Benny raced around with the neighbor dogs until it was time to come in.

Ginger, Scout, Tiger & Scotch

I could hear the pups all announcing my arrival as I walked up to the door. Ginger and Tiger came right outside with me, and Scout did a couple laps back and forth until finally joining us! They did their business and explored around for a few minutes. They took turns coming up to me for some pets. Then, I said the "w" word! They danced around and ran to the door, ready for their walk! Tiger ran inside right to the box to show me where the leashes were. We took a nice long walk and enjoyed the gorgeous weather. When we got home I visited with Scotch for a little while and got everyone their treats! This evening we spent most of our visit outside to enjoy the warm evening air. They did a little exploring, then Scout and Tiger laid down on the patio. We came back inside and Ginger got her meds. I visited with Scotch again, who meowed at me as soon as I opened the door! All the pups got a rawhide stick to chew on for awhile. Then they got another bedtime snack before I left. See you tomorrow!

Sammy, Molly, Gracie, Couper & Princess

The kids were outside barking when I pulled in the driveway today! I got to the door and was greeted by all the happy puppies! We all headed outside and in no time I had a puppy pile in my lap! Gracie and Couper were both wrestling to get to kiss my face. Sammy and Princess were on one side and Molly on the other. Princess actually sat on Sammy and he didn't seem to appreciate that. But she didn't care! They took turns running to the fence and snuggling with me before we went in for supper. After dinner they piled up in my lap again. Princess brought a blue stuffed animal up for me to throw for her. Gracie climbed on the next chair and curled up on the pillow. Later, Princess and Couper were having fun wrestling around. They all mellowed out after some time and were happy just curling up next to me! I love how Couper just crawls up, sprawls across my lap and on top of any dogs that happen to be in her way! Everyone followed me into the kitchen and got a big treat to snack on after I left.

Tyler, Emma, Lacey & Luke

Lacey started barking as she heard me coming to the door. Everyone raced to the kitchen, then to the back door. Tyler and Emma went outside to do their business and enjoy the nice day! Lacey came and hung out in the kitchen after I started to get their lunch ready. She came outside with me and went potty too. When we came in, Luke was waiting by the island. Everyone ate their lunch for me. Tyler and Emma went back out to play while Lacey snuggled up with me inside. She curled up and made herself comfy on my lap. Luke was sitting in the bedroom just looking out the window. When it was time, everyone came back inside and got a treat.

Buckley, Chloe, Tizzy & JR

Everyone was excited to get outside when I came this afternoon! They zoomed down the hallway, then would come sliding back around the corner to make sure I was coming! They ran to the back of the yard and started sniffing around. The boys wrestled around for a bit. Each took turns coming to get their attention and give me kisses! Buck found a nice stick to chew. The kids were relaxing in the sun while Chloe was still exploring. Later JR was picking on his sister and kept nudging her back! It was pretty funny. A squirrel was climbing down the side of the tree at the corner of the yard, so they all went running! It hopped down into the next yard. That little thing kept them entertained for quite awhile! They would all sit like statues, watching it's every move. If it would run across the yard, they would run along with it! They came inside when it was time to go and each got a treat while I got their peanut butter snack ready. The kids ran ahead of me into their kennels to wait! Chloe and Buck came in after me and curled up on their cozy beds.

Benny

Benny ran ahead of me, up to Kota's cage today to show me that she wasn't home this afternoon. Then he ran to the door and waited for his leash! Just the two of us, we headed on our way. Benny got us on a quick pace even without his sister leading the way. Things were creaking and flapping around in the wind today, which often made Benny jump! He barked at a garbage can for a minute after the lid made some noise. Benny took advantage of being able to stop as often as he wanted, since Kota wasn't there to hurry him along! As we turned one of the last corners, there was a loose dog across the street. I scooped up Benny and carried him until we were out of sight of the dog. Benny was excited to see that Momma was home!

Kita & Kitten

Kita barked twice at me as I was unlocking the door this morning! She ran back and forth to the living room twice, turning in circles as she got to the door. As soon as I hooked her leash on the collar, off she went! I refreshed the water, cleaned Kitten's litter box and filled both food dishes up then went to say good morning to Kitten. She was relaxing under the bed and stayed there as we chatted. Kita ran around outside all morning, enjoying the cool morning air. I had to come and get her, as it was time for me to go! I called her name and she came running around the corner. Kita had a great time outside today, and this evening was no different! But before she went out, I asked her if she was excited that mom and dad were coming home soon and she said "YES", just as I snapped the picture!! She spent the entire time outside, allowing for some quality time with Kitten! Kitten sat on my lap the entire time, so the picture I took was a close-up! We had a good time tonight!

Scout, Tiger, Ginger and Scotch

As I walked up the driveway, I could hear my friends announcing my arrival! All three greeted me at the gate, it was so good to see them again! I opened the gate and thought they would follow me outside, but it took a few trips back and forth to get all three outside! Ginger went first, followed by Tiger and then Scout! We stayed outside for a little bit, Scout and Tiger running around the yard. Ginger, however, was ready to get back inside as soon as possible! All three gathered at the door and back inside we went! I gave the dogs a fresh bowl of water and filled their food bowls, then I went out to talk to Scotch! I got a warm greeting and stayed to give some love and attention, I was even able to get a cute snapshot of Scotch! After I filled the food and water dish, I said goodbye to Scotch and headed back inside to give the dogs some treats! As soon as I grabbed the treat bag, all three raced over to be the first in line! We then sat down and took turns scratching and petting the dogs! It was time for me to go, so I said my goodbyes!
