Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

Rusty helped me get Ruby out of her bed this afternoon. Lance was sitting in the living room, just watching. He followed along, playfully pawing at corners of walls that we passed. He came outside with the pups and I. Lance sat and kept me company, while Rusty and Ruby explored. Rusty was checking out the grass for awhile. Eventually he came over and was ready for his game of fetch.

Sadi & Stormy

This morning Stormy was sitting under the kid's play table. She got up and joined me in the kitchen. She followed along as I brought the food to their room. Sadi was curled up on mom's bed, sleeping soundly. I got her up for her morning meds. I let her eat with Stormy, while I refilled their other dishes and worked on the floors. While we waited for them to dry, Sadi enjoyed her brush time. This evening Stormy was curled up on the back of the couch. I woke Sadi up again, who was snuggled up on the bed. She still sounded very good today.

Sadi & Stormy

This evening both girls were snoozing on mom's bed. They were so sleepy! Usually Stormy pops right up when she hears me. Tonight she cracked her eyes open and stretched a paw out as I gave her chin a lil scratch. I woke Sadi up to give her her medicine. She sounded very good tonight. I placed her by the food and water, while I scooped their box.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

Yesterday was the first time I ever saw Lance go outside! This afternoon I let Ruby out and called for Rusty. He was in the front room, getting up and looking for his ball. Once he was ready, we headed outside. Lance was already out there, and he ran across the patio with his tail all puffed up. All three were busy exploring around the yard. Lance was chasing bugs, Rusty was rolling in the grass, and Ruby was checking out the grill. She sunbathed on the patio the whole time we were out there. Rusty eventually brought me his ball and we got a long game of fetch in.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This morning I came in to find a few things. I think Blackie had a booboo. It was too big to belong to the little pups! I got everyone outside for a potty break, while I cleaned up. I had noticed a piece of trim from around the door was down, so I move that to the side. Blackie was seeming a bit nervous and didn't want to leave my side. When the pups came back in for breakfast, I realized why! I heard a beeping sound. A smoke detector battery was dead. I found which one it was and removed it. Poor little guy. This evening I let all the kiddos outside again. It was nice and sunny out now. The pups came in and were excited to eat their dinners. They returned to the yard to play for awhile. Hudson and the girls were roaming all over the place, playing in the leaves and checking things out. I got everyone a treat before I left, since they did pretty well over this week!

Taz & Clyde

I could hear the boys before I could see them when I got there this morning. Clyde came racing down the stairs, with Taz right behind him. The boys went out for their morning potty break. Since the grass was wet, they got their paws wiped off before they came back in. The boys quickly ate their breakfast. They lined up in the garage next, ready to go for their walk. They sang to me at the front door again! Haha. We went for our walk, then they got a few more minutes out back before I left. This afternoon the boys got to enjoy some time lounging outside. They both found a spot in the grass to soak up some sun. Every now and again someone would walk by, so they would have to run over and investigate.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

It was a cool afternoon today, but the sun was shining. I let Ruby out, then she and Rusty waited at the back door for me. We headed outside for awhile. Ruby eventually went in, but Rusty brought over his ball. We got a long game of fetch in. Later when Rusty and I went in, we saw Ruby was all snuggled on the couch. Lance came to visit me awhile. He had fun chasing after my fingers for the longest time! What a silly boy. Lance had fun tackling Rusty for awhile too.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This morning it was pretty cold out compared to what it has been lately. The pups were surrounding the door, waiting for me to come in. We made our way to the back door, and then outside. They all quickly did their business and were ready for their breakfast. We went out again after everyone was finished. No one wanted to stay out very long. Not even Hudson! We sat inside for awhile. Blackie kept trying to climb on the couch to snuggle with me. His efforts were thwarted when all the other pups took over my lap! This evening it was nice and sunny out. The dogs went out for their potty breaks before dinner. After they all ate, they spent some time playing outside. Hudson was busy watching and barking at some birds. The girls were wandering and exploring about the yard until it was time to come in.

Taz & Clyde

This morning the boys were up and ready to see me. I let them out back for a few minutes. When they came in, they both had their breakfast. Clyde was watching me closely as he waited for Taz to finished eating, ready for me to take them on a stroll! I got the boys all ready to go. They made me laugh this morning because they both were crying with excitement by the time we reached the front door. This afternoon, it was pretty nice out. The boys and I went out back to spend some time. Their dental snacks haven't arrived yet, so I got them each a cookie instead. I sat down on the patio and the boys quickly ran over. They sniffed at me for a bit, then wandered off. Clyde returned and was happy to get some heiny scratches! Taz saw that so he came over to sit down by me. He nearly sat right in my lap! Haha. He sat with his back to me and enjoyed some back rubs. This evening the boys were at the door, ready for me. They went out for a quick potty break before dinner. After they were done, they bounced along into the garage to get ready for their walk. We went for a nice long walk tonight.

Taz & Clyde

This morning the boys came racing to the door when I arrived. I let them out back for a potty break. When they came in, they were ready for breakfast. They waited while I poured their food in. After the finished, I let them go out back for awhile again. The sky was looking a little too gloomy. This afternoon the boys got to spend some more time outside, while I cleaned. They were in and out a few times, but the last time they lounged around for awhile. Taz was ready to come back in when the sky started rumbling. This evening we made up for it. I let the boys out for a quick potty break, then we got ready for a walk. It had cooled off a bit, so it was just right outside! We got a nice long walk in. Lots of other pups were out in their yards too, which had the boys watching. When we got back home, they had their dinner. Taz and Clyde spent a little while outside again when they were done.
