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.

Chelsea

This morning Chelsea was up and at the front door waiting for me. She pranced into the kitchen and showed me where her food container was while I got her breakfast. She quickly polished off her bowl, then took a quick potty break outside. Next, she did her little dance in front of me, getting excited for our walk! We got a nice long walk in this morning. After we got home, we sat in the living room and I gave her lots of hugs and kisses. She kept getting excited and running into the kitchen, thinking it was treat time. Then she would run back and give me her face hugs. I gave Chelsea a couple treats and turned on her music for her. I'm sure going to miss her!!!


Annie

This morning little Annie was curled up on her bed, wagging her tail at me. She was just a little shy, but wagged her tail more and more as I pet her and talked to her. I got her leash on and we went for a little stroll around the neighborhood. When we got back, she curled up next to me and nudged my hand with her nose for me to pet her. Soon she was sprawled out on her back, getting a nice long belly rub! This afternoon as soon as I opened the door, she excitedly ran to me! We got her leashed up and took another long walk around the neighborhood. I wanted to take her over by the water fountains, and saw there was a goose just sitting in the road. I thought as we got closer that it would fly away, but it didn't. It opened up its mouth and started hissing at us! So, I immediately turned Annie around and we quickly headed the opposite direction! Back at the house, Annie hopped up on her bed and rolled over for some more belly rubs. She was almost falling off, so I held her head with my other hand. I think she fell asleep, but her eyes were still open. She suddenly jumped and scared me! This evening I got Annie's benadryl, dinner and other goodies together. I brought them in and she finished them all for me. After dinner she and I went on another walk out back. She got a few more belly rubs inside before I left. She is such a sweetie!

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

This afternoon it was raining outside. The little ones hung out on the porch for a few minutes and debated whether or not they were going to go out. Eventually they wandered off into the yard, one by one. Biscuit would go out and explore a little, then come back to the dry patio. Roxy soon found her ball and wanted to play some fetch in the rain! She had a blast! Water went flying up behind her as she raced to get the ball. Later it was Bert's turn to come outside. She walked around in the grass, not minding the rain. Soon it had slowed to a sprinkle, so she continued to explore. Back inside I got everyone their treats before I left.

Chloe

Today it was raining when I arrived. I was met by a happy little Chloe, with her tail wagging away! I noticed she had found her Frisbee toy and it was laying next to her. So, we played some fetch with that for awhile. She had so much fun! She would race off after it, and even once in awhile she would jump up and catch it in the air. She would come trotting happily back to me. But, she didn't want to give it back, so she played a game of keep-away! I chased her around and around. Then I waited until she was ready to put it down, and threw it some more. She spent some time snuggling up by me too, to get a good back scratch. I got her a couple treats before I left.


Tank & CJ

This morning it was raining outside when I arrived. Both puppies were nice and dry, cozy inside the garage. They quickly raced into the kitchen for their hot dogs! We spent most of our time sitting in the garage while they took turns to eat. Tank sprawled out across my lap. He's such a silly boy! Before I left, they got their yummy bones to work on. This evening they were both in the garage when I pulled up, but they ran outside when they heard me. After they got their hot dogs, we sat in the garage again. Tank was being silly, peeking at me from outside the doggie door. Then he would come in slowly, doing a big stretch half way through! CJ was laying on the floor, watching her bone closely so Tank wouldn't steal it. I gave them hugs good-bye and gave them their chicken treats before I left.



Chelsea

This morning the dark clouds were rolling in when I got there. Miss Chelsea was right at the door, moving her blinds to see me. Luckily, we were able to get a long walk in before it started to rain. As we were walking, we saw a lawn service cutting grass up ahead. I didn't notice it at first, but I figured out that Chelsea was getting nervous! I turned her around and we took a different route instead. After we did that, she kept looking behind us to make sure they weren't following! We got home and she got her pill and treats before I left. This evening Chelsea must have been outside when I got in. She came running down the hall to see me! After her dinner we got to go for another long walk. It was cool, but very comfortable outside. After our walk, Chelsea and I got our snuggle time in. She's such a sweetie pie! She knew when it was treat time too, and did a few tricks for me.

Chelsea

This evening the blinds were flying back and forth as usual! Miss Chelsea met me with an excited, wiggly hind end. I stopped to say hi to her before we got her dinner. She got right to work and finished off her bowl. Then, she was ready for her walk! I got pretty teary-eyed tonight seeing her tonight, along with the nice card. I am going to miss her so much! We went for a nice long walk on a cool, starry-filled night. When we got back home I got Chelsea her pill, then smothered her with hugs and kisses! She got a yummy treat before bedtime.
