Today I arrived and it was raining out. I let Ruby out and called for Rusty. He was sitting in his chair in the front room, and wasn't too thrilled to get up. He finally did, and followed us outside. I got Ruby to follow me out to the grass. She sure wasn't happy about that! She kept looking back to the house. "Please, can I go back inside?" I kept telling her to go potty, then she could go back in and get out of the rain. She was a good girl and did her business. Then, she ran like the wind to get back in the house! Rusty and I went in through the back door. I didn't have any lights on, so it was pretty dark inside. I thought Ruby was coming towards me in the kitchen, then I realized that dog was way too white for her! I knelt down and said hi to the pup. She was very sweet. She, Rusty and I sat in the front room for awhile. I think Ruby had gone to hide in mom and dad's room.

Winston
This afternoon Winston went to the door to wait for his leash to be hooked on. Luckily, the rain had let up just in time for us to get outside for his potty break. We walked around a little bit and he got to do his business. Just as he was finishing up, the rain started to pour down on us. We ran inside before it got too heavy out there. Winston slid across the floor to dry off. Haha. We got more play time instead for today. He ran around and was switching up his toys the whole time. First, he was busy with his nylabone. Then, he ran and found his green bone. So, we played a little fetch with that. There sure isn't much left of that thing! Next, he was ready for a game of tug with his rope. He was all into it, doing his little bunny hop backwards! Haha. He cracks me up. He switched back and forth between his rope and his green bone until it was time to go.
Eddie & Butler
Today I let the boys out and they both said hi. Butler was in a playful mood today! He went and hopped around on the couch, then came to get me, and went back again. "C'mon, let's play!" He found his red bone toy and we played a little game of fetch with that. Since it was down-pouring outside, the boys decided to hang inside with me for most of the time. Eddie was content just sitting by me and getting his back scratched. I had the boys come outside with me so that they'd do their business. They did, and they messed around out there for a little bit.
Oscar
This afternoon my buddy was at the door to see me right away. It was dark inside today, since it was supposed to storm out. Oscar and I went outside and saw that it was getting darker out and the lightning was increasing. He stood and looked at the clouds with me for a minute, then he went to lounge in the grass. Soon, the storm had arrived and it started to rain. As it picked up, I had him come in. He didn't seem to mind laying out there while it was only sprinkling! Haha. I wiped off his tootsies, then we made our way in. He and I played with his rope toy until it was time to go.
Sadi & Stormy
This morning I walked in and saw little miss Sadi just sitting in the kitchen! She snuck out again. Luckily, she must not have been out long. I didn't find anything, so I took her back to her room to get her meds. Stormy was following me back and forth, expecting her food. Finally, the last time, she got what she was waiting for. The girls got busy snacking on their breakfast. Sadi didn't eat long this morning and came over to sit by me for a little while. Stormy wandered back out to the living room. As I was leaving, I didn't see her, so she must have been napping somewhere. It was raining out, so it was a perfect morning for one!

Rusty & Ruby
This afternoon the pups went outside ahead of me. I got out there and they both wandered to the grassy area. Ruby did her business. She then went to lounge on the patio for awhile. Rusty was busy exploring today. I got him to bring his ball over for me to throw. He got it, but he must have gotten sidetracked by a scent he picked up. After he sniffed around awhile longer, he finally was ready to play. We got a nice game of fetch in. Miss Ruby went in by that time to go cool off. When Rusty was ready, we headed in as well. They both curled up on the couch together, while I made sure they had enough water.
Winston
Today I let Winston out and he went to wait by the door for me. He did a big stretch as I got him hooked up. It was nice and breezy outside today, so we got a nice long stroll in. We wandered around and he got to go check out his trees and bushes. He stopped to do his business. He had a bit of soft stool today, so we'll have to keep an eye on that the next couple days. We continued walking around for awhile, until it was time to head back. When we got in, he slid around on the floor, doing his silly thing. I got out his rope and we had a good game of tug with that. When it was time, he got his snack and headed to his room.
Eddie & Butler
Today I let the boys out and Butler got his medicine applied. They ran outside to play a bit. I heard Butler getting excited when the neighbor pup came out. After a little while, the boys both came in for a drink. Butler wanted to play, so he was being goofy and bouncing around the house. They had fun wrestling around as well. Then, it was back outside to lounge on the patio. It was another hot afternoon, so the boys were in again later to cool off. Butler did a good job of going into his bed for me today!
Oscar
Today Oscar was up and at the door to see me. He waited to see who it was, then he made his way towards the back door. He stopped along the way so I could say hi and give him some pets. Once outside, Oscar found a cozy spot in the grass to soak up some rays. It was quite windy out this afternoon, so that made it pretty comfortable outside. He lounged around awhile, then got up to go investigate on the other side of the house. When he returned, he came over by me for some attention. Oscar relaxed in the shade again until it was time to head in. He went and sprawled out across the ottoman to cool off a little. When I got his snack out, he went through a bunch of his tricks for me. Such a smart boy!
Sadi & Stormy
This morning I came in and went to go get miss Sadi. She was sitting on the floor of the bedroom, just looking around. I got her cleaned up and gave her her meds. I put her back by the food, while I went to get their breakfast ready. Stormy followed along behind me and gave me such a loud meow this morning! She waited in the dining room until I was done. I delivered their food and the girls both ate well. Stormy was busy sitting off in the distance watching me, while I did my cleaning today. When I got to the bedroom, I found Sadi all curled up in her bed, snoozing away.
