Sadi & Stormy

Both girls were snuggled up together on mom's bed when I walked in tonight. So cute!! Stormy woke up, but I had to wake Sadi up for her medicine. Her nose looked really good this evening.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This morning the pooches all were dancing at the door when I got there. They had done well overnight again. I took them all outside for a little bit. They came in and everyone followed me around until I got to their dish, then they got right to work. Within a couple minutes, they all had polished off their dishes. We went back outside again later. Hudson was busy barking at something on the other side of the fence, so Blackie trotted over there to see what he was up to. This evening I took the pups out one by one to do their business. It was so nice out! I let them play for awhile, before we went in for their dinner. They spent more time playing outside after, to enjoy the nice weather.

Bella, Louie & Chico

This morning the pups all raced outside to do their business. Meanwhile, I got them some breakfast and filled their water bowls. Bella followed me around a bit, then she decided to go explore in the yard. They weren't too concerned with eating much this morning for me. Later, I heard Chico back in the hall barking like crazy. I thought maybe Bella was trying to get a bone he had, and he was yelling at her... so I called for her. She came wandering in from outside. She was being good! So, I went to go see what the little man was up to. I saw him in the spare bedroom standing in front of the mirror. I started to laugh because I thought he was barking at his reflection. As I got closer... I saw what he was really barking at! You caught a little critter. I got Chico out of the room and closed the door, so he would worry about other things. This afternoon everyone went out and roamed about the yard. It was a beautiful afternoon! Chico spent most of his time inside, keeping watch over his treat. Before I left, I got them all their peanut butter snacks.

Gracie, Molly, Emma & the kitties

This morning I let the older gals outside right away. Henry and Smudge were wandering around the kitchen. I let Miss Gracie out to visit with me until it was her turn to go out. I fed the ladies their breakfast. After they were done, I checked on food and litter box for the kitties. I had the girls take another potty break, while Gracie and I visited. She wanted to spend the morning outside, so I made sure she had her bowl full of water before I left. This afternoon, I saw Gracie was lounging in the grass, soaking up some sun. She saw me and headed for the back door. She came in, while Emma went out. I had to go looking for Molly, since she wasn't coming when I called. She was just laying down, relaxing. I decided to take Miss Gracie out for a walk, since it was so nice out. We only took a short one though. There were some loose dogs out and they were headed our way, so we decided to go back home. When the girls were done playing out back, Gracie went out to enjoy some more of the afternoon.

Bradford, ZZ, Heighty & the gang

This morning Moody was ready for some attention! I pet him as I made my way to the back door. I filled all the dishes with food, before they heard me and woke up. Sugar was snuggled in one of the doggie igloos, while the others filed out from the shed. They all bounced circles around me excitedly. I let them work on their food a bit, while I visited Moody. He was enjoying some chin scratches, purring away! I made sure everyone had plenty of food and water before I left.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

The kiddos had been great overnight. I took them each outside right away for a potty break. When they were all ready, we came inside for breakfast and some water. They got another potty break when they were finished. The girls wanted in, since it was a little cool out this morning. When they came in, Zel was working on burrowing in the blankets on the couch. That got Gabbie curious. She was at the other end, trying to peek under the covers. Zel didn't want to share! Haha. I tucked them all in their beds for the day. This evening everyone was in a howling mood when I walked in! We went outside for a little while. It was very nice out tonight. After they had some time to play, they came in for dinner. We went right back out as soon as they were done, so they could enjoy some time outside. Neighbor kids were out playing, so that had all the pups curiously watching. When it was time, we headed inside for the night.

Gracie, Molly, Emma & the kitties

This evening I spotted Smudge right away. Emma emerged and came to say hi. I checked outside for Gracie but didn't see her right away. I looked a second time, then she came running. I guess she was off exploring! I let the other two out while I got dinner ready. Miss Gracie had no reservations with me at all this time. She was being her silly self, running around and being excited. The pups all ate their dinners pretty quick. Emma went outside again, but Miss Molly was done for the night. Charlie and Henry joined us in the kitchen, wanting a bit of attention as well. When it was time, I got the pups tucked in for the night.

Bella, Louie & Chico

This morning everyone zoomed out of their beds. Bella gave me her hellos before I got them their breakfast. It was a little cool, but pretty nice out already this morning. Bella and Chico did a little exploring about the yard. Louie kept going from bowl to bowl to eat some food. Silly boy! This afternoon we all spent awhile outside. It was so nice out. Bella snuck in and grabbed a rawhide from somewhere, then laid in the garden. She looked like she was hiding in the wilderness in the tall brush. Haha! Chico came and sat in my lap for a bit, then he and Louie were roaming around. This evening, the pups did much better about eating their dinners. Bella would run over to me, to make sure she wasn't missing anything, then would return to her bowl.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This evening Blackie came wandering in the kitchen to see me. I thought I'd see the others running up, but then I saw mom's note. I let all the kiddos out for a potty break. It didn't take long before they lined up at the gate, ready for dinner. I brought them each inside and got them their food. After they had some time to get a drink, it was back outside they went. It was very nice out! They had some time to run around and explore before bedtime.

Bradford, ZZ, Heighty & the gang

This afternoon Moody was meowing at me through the door when I walked in. He hopped along the furniture as I made my way to the door. The pups all came racing once I got outside. Sugar and Freckles both got to work on their food. The three little pups were hopping up and down at my legs. Heighty ran and grabbed a ball and kept tossing it over to me. We played fetch for awhile, until the other pups interrupted. This evening Moody got a few pets as I made my way outside. Heighty brought her ball over right away, while the others worked on dinner. Later, I headed inside and spent some time with Moody.
