Koko & Sierra

I was happy to see the girls today and they were happy to see me too! I love Sierra's pretty new necklace!! I noticed it right away. I got their food ready and Sierra actually ate all her food right away tonight. I quick cleaned up their potty pads. Afterwards, I was saying hi to Koko while Sierra finished her food. Koko was busy smelling me. I had just gotten done meeting some new puppy dogs before I came over. When they were all finished we played with the lighty for a long time!

Mattie, Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

Mattie was up and ready to go outside again this afternoon. I went to let everyone else out and Sugar was all bundled up in her blankies. She didn't feel like going outside. Mattie came back all full of mud so I wiped her paws down before she came inside. She had to lay down for me because she was having a hard time balancing on 3 legs. Buddy was all excited when he came in and went and stood next to the cupboard that has all their treats in it. He would look at me and cry a little, then would paw at the cupboard! It was very cute. I gave them all a rawhide to chew on before I left. Mattie really seemed to like hers! She held onto it for a minute then carried it over to a different spot and got comfy!

Benny

Benny was carrying around his little blue ball when I came in today. He wanted to bring it along for our walk again! Benny saw a couple kitties today and got really excited! One took off under a truck and when we came close it was nowhere to be found, but Benny was sure looking! We had the little chocolate lab puppy we saw yesterday come up to us today. Benny wasn't too happy about that. The puppy was just curious and wanted to play! Eventually the owner came out and called the puppy back home.

Mattie heard me coming this morning and started barking and greeted me at the door. Then she stood by the back door while I let the little ones out. It was raining this morning, so they didn't spend much time outside today. When they got back inside I gave them their meds and fed them their yummy breakfast! Mattie seems to be feeling pretty well so far today. She would go lay down and then spring back up as soon as I was doing something or petting someone! Usually she doesn't get up and down so much when I'm there. She just seemed to be in a really good mood too!

Morning strrrretch!

Mattie, Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

The little ones all went out this afternoon. Mattie didn't feel like going anywhere. Sugar came right back inside while the boys played in the yard. Jimmy was soaking up the sun again today! He was laying by the corner of the house to get out of the wind. The neighbor dogs were out and came up to the fence to check out what we were doing. I had the boys come back inside for a couple minutes before I left so they could eat and drink if they wanted. They all sure were thirsty!

Dakota & Benny

Dakota was very energetic today! She bunny-hopped for a good portion of our walk today. Then she would hang back for a minute and then run ahead as fast as she could! Everytime we walked past a garbage can, poor Benny would jump. A lot of them had their lids hanging open and it was pretty windy out, so they would slam against the can as we passed by. The sun started peeking out as we started our walk and stayed out the whole time, so that was nice! We passed a couple puppies playing outside today and Kota and Benny got so excited! Kota was pulling me backward because she wanted to go play with one of them. They were both pretty tired when we got back to the house today. Benny crashed on the floor and Kota went right in her bed.

Mattie was standing and ready to go out before I walked in tonight! As soon as I came in, she went and stood by the back door. They all went out and came right back inside. Brrr!! Yes it is chilly here! I think it's only in the 30's right now and will be in the teens overnight. I gave Buddy his second round of eyedrops today. He was pretty snuggly with me today and was jumping at my legs almost as much as Jimmy! After I did the eyedrops I got them all their meds and yummy food! They all ate a bunch before bedtime. Buddy was going to raid the stash of rawhides sitting on the fireplace, but I guess he didn't find the one he wanted. I gave them all a bedtime treat before I left.

Everyone did fine this afternoon. Mattie still didn't want to go outside for me. Sugar wanted to come right back inside, but the other two hung out for awhile. I went out to check on them and see what they were up to. Buddy and Jimmy were both sunbathing on the side of the house!

"Aaaahhhh... sun feels gooood!"

Mattie, Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

The little ones were ready to go outside when I got there this morning. They were ready to come right back in too, since it was pretty chilly out! Mattie wouldn't go out for me, so maybe she will this afternoon. Jimmy came back in and curled up on top of the couch. I gave Buddy his eyedrops right away and he did great! It was the other two jumping on my arms that made it a little difficult! haha! I gave Jimmy and Mattie their meds and gave Buddy his in the container of food that I split up for everyone. They get so excited when I get that container out! Sugar was ready for her treat as soon as they were done. Charlie is starting to talk a little bit when I'm there now. He used to only make his chirping sound, but now he says hi once in awhile.

Benny

He did remember, so you don't have to worry about leaving me one on Thursday! Benny was excited today. He came up to me carrying his yellow bone and stood on his hind legs like "lookie what I have!". He tried to bring it along for our walk! Benny was full of energy himself this afternoon. He was pulling pretty good at first and barking at things that were blowing around in the wind. He settled down after a little bit. It's funny, he knows all the houses that have dogs now! He gets excited when we come up to them and started his little growl before we get to it or before we ever hear the dogs. He did good today when we walked past a lady getting ready for a walk with her stroller. I put myself in between him and the lady, and he never made a peep! He was pretty pooped though when we got back from our walk.
