This afternoon was gorgeous outside. I let Ruby out and she followed me to the backyard. I had called for Rusty, but he must have been napping. He eventually showed up and joined us. I sat on the patio while the pups wandered around. Lance came and brushed up against my back. He rolled around and got pet for awhile. Rusty was happy to be outside! He just laid in the grass and soaked up the sun.

Sadi & Stormy
This morning Stormy met me in the kitchen and started rubbing on the cabinets. She waited while I got their breakfast ready. Miss Sadi was snoozing away on mom's bed. I got her up while Stormy was eating, to give her her meds. I set Sadi down for her turn, but she wasn't interested at the moment. I carried her out to our spot and set her down for a brushing session. She sat and purred away the whole time. Stormy sat with us and she kept talking to me. She would walk around and rub up against my back. When we were done, Sadi was ready to eat. This evening the girls were curled up together on the bed. I got Sadi up to clean her up and give her the evening round of medicine.

Cate, Carson, Angus & the gang
This morning the pups all woke up when I got there. It had rained a bit, so it was nice and cool outside. I let them all stay out as long as they wanted this morning. They must have liked the cooler weather too, because everyone roamed around a bit. This evening the kiddos made sure to tell me they were hungry! Cate and Carson went out first. I noticed Tanner was shaking his head quite a bit. After everyone went out, they worked on their dinners. Tanner didn't seem to be too hungry. While I was finishing up, mom and dad showed up. Their three were very happy to see them!
Rusty, Ruby & the kitties
This afternoon I got inside and let Miss Ruby out. She and Rusty followed me to head outside. It was sprinkling out, so they both quickly did their business and headed inside. Ruby snuggled up on the couch and took a nap by me. Rusty wandered into the front room and lounged on his chair. While I was sitting with Ruby, Lance came wandering in from outside. I guess he didn't mind the rain!
Sadi & Stormy
This evening the ladies were all snuggled on mom's bed when I got there. Stormy popped her head up right away when she heard me. I woke Sadi up for her evening medicine. Her nose was very good tonight.

Cate, Carson, Angus & the gang
This morning all the pups started to wake up when I arrived. I started to let them out for their morning potty rounds. Meanwhile, I checked on Bella's things. She had been sitting atop the fence again when I got there. Once I opened the door, she shot inside. I've never seen her try that hard to get in! Then I found out why. Once I got her back out, I saw another kitty out there. I guess she was trying to get away. She must be sharing her food too. All the kiddos took their breaks and came in for a snack. This evening, they were all ready for dinner. Cate and Carson went out, then worked on their dinners, while Tyson, Tanner and Peanut took their turn. Angus patiently waited for his turn outside. He's such a good boy. Everyone did very well eating tonight. Peanut and Tanner still had a little bit left over, but not nearly as much. They've all been great!
Major & Boomer
This morning I saw the boys out in the yard when I pulled up, just lounging. They both got up and walked over to the fence to see who was here. They met me inside and were very excited! They knew it was time to eat. Major walked over with me while I got their dinner ready. He kept pawing at my legs. "Hurry up lady, I'm hungry!" Haha. I put their dinners in their spots and they both got to work. Major got his medicine. I cleaned up when they were done, and Boomer came over for a little attention.

Cate, Carson, Angus & the gang
This morning the pups were snoring when I walked in. They woke up and were ready for their potty break. Cate and Carson went outside for awhile. I saw miss Bella standing on the fence, looking in at me. The trio went out for their potty break when the other two were done. I checked to make sure Bella had enough food while they were busy. Finally, Angus went out for his turn. This evening the kiddos were telling me that they were hungry! Cate and Carson went out quick and then got to work on their dinner. Cate was racing around the dog room before she went out for me. They snacked on their food while Tanner, Tyson and Peanut went out. Angus went out last and went right to town on his dinner. Everyone went out for a last potty break before bed.
Susie & Frank Fritz
Today Frank was right at the door to greet me. He was a little more jumpy today since he was so excited. But that's ok... he's cute so he can get away with it! He followed me inside while I got them their dinner. He went into his bed and scarfed his down. Susie came by while he was busy and got some one on one attention from me. Once Frank was done, he came running and took over! Haha. I got them some fresh water and got them both a little rawhide treat.
Diesel & Odin
This morning I pulled up and all was quiet. I walked up by the house and saw the boys lounging in the grass behind the house. They hadn't seen me yet, so they got startled when I said hi! Haha. The boys let out a couple barks, then came running over for some attention. They were ready for their breakfast. We headed to their house, where they sat and waited for me to get their food ready. Odin had his bowl polished off first. The boys each got a cookie when they were finished.
