This morning Stormy was out on her patio. She heard me come inside and came up to the door and meowed. I opened it and she came in, while I went to water plants. When I got back, she was back at the door meowing, but from the inside this time. Haha! I think she was a little confused as to what I was doing. I came in and got their breakfast ready, while she kept me company in the kitchen. Sadi was sitting on the floor by the food dishes. When I brought the new food in, she made her way out to the bathroom and sat just below her spot at the sink. Guess she was ready! She got her meds, then we headed to our spot. Stormy wasn't too interested in either of her kitty toys today, but she had a blast with the shoe string! She would race around after it and grab on. Sadi was content with her routine brushing session! This evening Sadi was curled up and snoozing away in her bed. I woke her up and she did a big stretch as I carried her to her spot. She had a big goober tonight! Haha. I cleaned her up and she sounded much better. After she got her medicine, I put her back to bed. Miss Stormy came to say hi as I was leaving too.

Rusty & Ruby
This afternoon I let Ruby out and she ran to the back door to wait. I went to the front room to get Rusty out of his chair. Haha. The pups and I all went outside. Miss Ruby did her thing right away, then she came to sit with me. Rusty laid out in the grass and rolled around next to his ball. He lounged around in the sun most of the time. I could tell it was hot out today, since he was panting just from laying out there. Ruby sat with me for some heiny scratches, then she laid in a shady spot on the patio until it was time to go inside.
Winston
Winston was all ready to go today! I let him out and hooked up his leash, then we headed outside. We got a nice walk in today. There was a bit of a breeze, so it wasn't too hot terribly hot out. He wandered around, checking everything out with his sniffer. Later, we headed back home. He went and grabbed his monster dude as soon as he was set free. I told him we'll let him live another day, then I found his rope toy. We played tug with that for awhile. Winston was cute and sprawled out on his belly, with his tiny cute little toes sticking out behind him. I couldn't help but tickle them! Haha. When it was time, he got a couple snacks and headed to his room. Such a good little man!
Oscar
This afternoon Oscar had his little nose waiting right at the door to see who was home. He stopped in front of me a couple times on our way out, so I would give him some chest and belly scratches! He was dancing around all happy. We headed outside and he plopped himself right down on the grass. He lounged around awhile and loved up the warm sunlight. The neighbors got home while we were out, then shortly after, their three pups came running outside. The two boxers raced to the fence to say hi to Oscar. It was pretty warm out again today, so I let Oscar just lounge around. When we went in, he got his sharky and we played tug for a few minutes. He did his tricks for me to get his snacks before it was time to go.
Eddie & Butler
Today I let Eddie out and he helped me get Butler. We headed outside and both boys were trying to climb on the table to say hi to me. I went back in to grab Butler's medicine. When I went to put that on, Eddie thought he better check it out! He sure made it a challenge today. Haha! Butler was a good boy and let me spray it on. The boys wandered around a bit, then Butler went back inside. Guess it was a little too warm out for him today. He came out a couple times, but did most of his lounging inside. Eddie sprawled out on the patio for a good while.
Sadi & Stormy
Today I came inside and Stormy started meowing at me instantly. She wandered into the kitchen to say hi. When we delivered their breakfast, we found Sadi was in there already, getting herself a drink. I waited to see if she would try to eat right away. Since she didn't, I got her her meds, then gave her a chance to eat while I cleaned up their things. She took a couple nibbles, then turned to head out. I took her to our spot, with Stormy following along behind us. Stormy plopped down just far enough away from me that I couldn't reach her. I got out her feather toy and she had fun playing with that today. Sadi purred while she got brushed, as usual. Later, I took her back by the food and she started to eat for me. This evening I found Sadi sleeping by the food dishes. I woke her up to give her her medicine. Her nose sounded good again today. When we were done, I put her in her comfy bed.
Bella, Louie & Chico
This morning all three pups went outside, then I had Louie come in for his breakfast. He ate all of it for me, like a good boy! When he was done, we went back outside. They explored and did their thing, while I refilled their food and water jugs. They kept hearing noises this morning that had Chico and Bella racing around to bark at it! I let Louie stay out for the morning, since it was nice out. This afternoon Bella and Chico went out. Chico found a warm spot on the patio to get some sun. Bella did the same in a cozy spot on the grass. Louie was happy lounging in the shade for a little while. The pups worked on snacking on some kibble while we were out. After Bella was full, she just wanted some attention, so she sat with me. Chico was jealous of that, so he kept trying to find a way onto my lap. Those two! When it was time, everyone came in for the afternoon inside the cool house. I got them all their yummy snacks. Louie could hardly wait for his! This evening everyone went out for their potty breaks, while I mixed up Louie's supper. He came in and actually ate it all pretty quick tonight! We went back out for awhile after that. Bella was busy patrolling the fence and looking for things to chase. Chico ate a little dinner and was having fun chomping at the flies. Bella had to join in the fun too! Later, all three just spent some time roaming around.

Rusty & Ruby
It was down-pouring rain today when I came to see the pups. I let Ruby out and she went for the door. She stopped when she got to it. She only had to look out the doggie door and see that she didn't want to go out! Haha. She was about to high tail it the other way, but I stopped her and had her go out. I went out and braved the rain with her. Poor little lady was terrified, but she knew what she had to do. Of course, just as she was about to go there was a loud crack of thunder. I stood out by her and encouraged her to go and she did. Then, we ran back inside. Such a good girl! I went to see what Rusty was up to and he was hanging out in his chair like usual. Ruby had gone to the bedroom. I went to check on her and little Salem came out to say hi. She was pretty lovey today and wanted a few chin scratches.
Eddie & Butler
This afternoon we had some good storms going. I let the boys out and they said hi for a minute. We headed out and they hung out on the patio and looked at the rain. Butler got his spray on his hot spot. After that, the boys ventured out. Eddie had fun rolling around in the wet grass. He made sure to come and share with me! Haha. Butler got wet from the rain, then had to say hi to. He eventually curled up on the chair outside and lounged around. Eddie was in and out a lot. Not a real fun day for any of my pooches today!
Oscar
It was pouring rain out most of the day today, but Oscar got lucky! It took a break just when I arrived. He met me at the door and we headed outside. He lounged around for a little bit. After that, he went to go check out a branch that had fallen in the yard. He kept biting on it like he was going to bring it over to play with. Haha. But, he gave up on it after a couple minutes. He was busy barking at dogs he saw outside today, or neighbors out rolling their trash bins back to the house. Silly boy. Just as we headed in, the rain was starting to pick back up again. He got the perfect amount to relax outside today.
