Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

Today I let the kiddos outside to play. It was a bit chilly in the wind, so they each went potty, then we went back inside for a bit. Jimmy snuggled up on my lap. Sugar had wandered off to her bed. I let them all outside again for awhile before I left. This evening the boys came running to see me. We headed outside to play for awhile. Jimmy found his squeaky toy for us to play some fetch. Later we headed in to get the boys their meds. After they finished we played outside some more. This time Buddy ran out and grabbed the toy to play with. Jimmy got jealous! But he came by me for some attention instead until we went in.

Miranda

This afternoon Miranda met me at the door as usual to say hi. She was very energetic today! She sprung up in the air once we got to the back door. Then outside, she walked in circles while I pet her back and sides. She trotted over to her toy in the yard and brought it back to me for a quick game of tug of war. Then, she actually played fetch with me for a little bit!

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I let the pups all outside when I arrived. Jimmy ran right into Buddy's bed and stole his treat that he was saving! Finally I got everyone rounded up and outside. Luckily it wasn't raining out, so we got to play out there for awhile. I let them stay loose inside the house again when I left. This evening they all came running to say hi. After they went potty quick, they came back in for their meds. We all went back outside after. The boys were having fun running around with the neighbor dogs. Later, Jimmy came and sat on my feet for some attention. Sugar was lounging on her bed again for most of the time. When it was time to go in, they all bounced around in the kitchen for their treats!

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

This afternoon there was only one bird out in the yard for the pups to chase off. After they did that, it was time to do some exploring. Luckily it wasn't raining out today. Dilly was just sitting in the middle of the yard, staring off into the distance. I wonder what she was thinking about! Roxy went into the toy pile looking for a ball, but was unsuccessful. She dug around and found a barbell squeaky toy instead. It almost seemed too heavy for her as she'd throw it down at my feet! She had fun chasing after that for awhile until Biscuit joined in and guarded it from her. Bert came out of her room and found a ball to bring outside. She soon lost interest in that and wandered about the yard instead. We heard a loud bang while we were out there. That sent her running to me! She sat by me the rest of the time and got her back scratched until we headed inside.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I let everyone outside to play since it was so nice out! They did some exploring, then each found a spot to curl up in the sun for awhile. Sugar eventually moved into the shade on her comfy bed. Jimmy was sprawled out on the pool cover like it was his own personal hammock! He cracks me up. Buddy had brought out a treat with him that he worked on for a bit. I let the kiddos stay out inside the house for the afternoon. When I arrived this evening, everyone ran to say hi, then raced to the back door. We went outside for them to go potty, then came back in for meds. Afterwards, we all went outside again since it was still so nice out. Jimmy and Buddy went to say hi to the chocolate lab next door. Sugar mainly lounged around on her bed. When it was time, they came in and all got their bedtime snack.

Buckley, Chloe, Tizzy, JR & Bootsie

Today all four pups came racing out of the bedroom, ready to go! They all zoomed around to the back of the yard to their tree. Today they were all racing back and forth from one end of the yard to another. Buckley took a break to go for a dip in the pool. Then, he laid down with a toy and played with that for a bit. Tizzy and JR went for a swim next. Chloe and Tizzy spent most of their time sitting by the corner tree, staring up at it. Tizzy would run up the side once in awhile. Later, I saw them both sitting in the very corner of the yard, looking up at the telephone pole! They were so cute. JR stayed by me for awhile and cleaned off his fur. Then, he would curl up in the shade nearby. Buck went from one shady area to another to lounge around. Back inside, I got them some fresh water as they curled up on their beds. Bootsie was already comfy in his!

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

As soon as the back door opened this afternoon, Roxy, Dilly and Biscuit all went racing to chase off a flock of birds! Once they had all flown away, everyone went to their exploring. Roxy found her ball and got me to play some fetch with her. Biscuit joined in a few times, but he was more interested in checking things out. Out of the corner of her eye, Roxy saw another bird and went chasing it around to the side of the house. Bert came outside next and found a toy to prance around with. She brought it over by me, then sat for a short back scratch. She gave me a kiss on my knee as a thank you before she went off to do some sniffing around too.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

Tonight Jimmy and Buddy both came running to greet me at the door! I called for Sugar, but she was comfortable in her cave. So, just the boys and I went outside for awhile. We came back in when it was time for meds. Sugar emerged when she heard the clinking of the plates. After dinner, everyone went outside with me again. Jimmy had fun racing with the neighbor dog! Sugar did some exploring, then relaxed on her bed. Buddy, was of course, checking everywhere for critters.

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

This afternoon Dilly was bouncing up at me like crazy as we headed outside! It was a very comfortable day out already, so all three pups had some fun exploring. They got excited to see someone walking off in the distance. Then later it was pretty quiet as they all just sniffed around and rolled around in the grass. Bert did the same when it was her turn to go outside. She spent the whole time just wandering around.

Miranda

Today miss Miranda peeked through the door at me as I opened it. Then, she raced to wait for me at the back door. Outside she ran and pounced on her favorite toy, then brought it over to me. She sat by me and walked in circles to get all of her back scratched. One of the neighbor dogs was barking, so Miranda stuck be me. We played a little fetch, then she sprawled out in the grass for awhile.
