Oscar

This afternoon Oscar was standing in the living room, waiting to see who was home. As soon as he saw, the tail started going and he came over to say hi. We went outside and Oscar found a spot to go lounge. He was pretty much a lazy bum today and just wanted to soak up some sunshine. It sure was a nice day for it! He took a break to come get some back scratches from me before he went to find a shady spot to lay. He heard a dog barking across the street and that got him up and racing over to the fence to talk back. Haha! When we went in he got his treat and did a couple tricks for me.

Jackson

This morning I came in and Jackson appeared from the bedroom. I let him out right away so he could do his business. After he did, we sat outside for awhile. It was a beautiful morning. Jackson sat with me and got his snuggles in. I asked him if he wanted to go for a walk and he got very excited! So I guess that was a yes. Haha! I got him leashed up and away we went. We got a nice walk in. We passed a house that had lots of fun Halloween decorations outside. Jackson started to walk up to go check them out, then decided they were too scary. Haha! Jackson had a beautiful day to hang out outside again. This evening I went out to say hi to Jackson quick, just in case he got a little too excited. When he settled, we headed inside and I got him his dinner. I sat in the kitchen with him and eventually he went to work. He ate very well for me. After dinner, we went and sat in the living room. Jackson snuggled up to me and was happy to get plenty of belly rubs!

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

It was a beautiful start to the day this morning! Everyone met me excitedly at the door. I let them all out for their potty breaks. After they'd all done their business, they started lining up at the door, ready to eat. Everyone danced in the kitchen behind me while I scooped out their portions. All ate well. We went back out once they finished to go enjoy the fresh air. Hudson was sitting back by the table by the shed, keeping watch over his territory. Haha. Zel was busy digging her tunnels again. Gabbie and Blackie roamed around a little bit too. Later on, Gabbie came to sit by the door, ready to go inside. This evening I came in and let the little ones out of their beds. Gabbie was bouncing up and down at my legs all the way to the door. It had been pretty warm out this afternoon, but it cooled down just enough this evening. It was absolutely gorgeous out! The pups went potty and came in for dinner. They all roamed and checked things out this evening until it was time to head in for bed. I actually had to call for Blackie this time! He was way at the far end checking something out.

Noell

This morning was much quieter at the house. Haha! Noell heard me and came in from her patio. It was a nice cool morning. We got her breakfast and she started chowing down right away. We went to our spot in the living room to play after that. She was ready for some zooms! Noell chased after her mousey. She would race and then hide behind my legs and wait for the mouse to come around again so she could pounce! Haha. She had fun playing for awhile. She wanted a few pets, but then decided to go lounge on the kitchen tile for a bit.

Roxy & Sophie

This morning the girls had found the only bit of sunshine on the yard so far, in the front by the gate. They were both out there relaxing. As soon as they saw me coming, they were both bouncing up and down at the gate. The girls raced around back to meet me at the door. They were quite excited this morning! Sophie and Roxy were zooming circles around me, bouncing around like crazy. The beautiful weather must have given them some energy this morning. It didn't last long though! They said their hellos and took a break to go snack on their food. With full tummies, the girls snuggled up for their naps. Roxy was sprawled out across her chair and Sophie was on her back on the couch next to me. So silly! They snoozed until it was time to get up and get their snacks.

Jackson

This morning I came in and Jackson was in the kitchen, excited that his people were home. Only... it wasn't them. Haha! He saw it was me and took off to hide behind the couch. He was being shy since it had been awhile. I got him to go outside for me. Then, I sat down on the step and talked to him for awhile. Within a couple minutes, he'd come closer and even sat about 2 feet away from me. Not long after that, he came up to smell my outstretched hand. He doesn't seem to care for these treats, at least not today anyways. Haha. After he smelled me, I think he remembered who I was. Only a couple minutes later and he was wanting his pets! Yay! I sat and pet him until it was time to go. It was a beautiful day for him to hang outside. This evening, I opened the door and he was right there, ready to go in. We sat outside for a little while since it was so nice out. Jackson sat and snuggled up to me. Yep, he was pretty much attached to me now. Haha. We headed inside and I tried to get him to eat for me. He wasn't interested, but I knew he was hungry. His tummy was grumbling awfully loud! Hopefully he'll eat tonight after I've left. We sat on the floor in the living room and he rolled over for lots of belly rubs. He even sprawled out across my lap. Goofy boy!

Noell

This morning I pulled up and was surprised to see all the commotion at the house! I was able to get in through the garage and I headed inside. Noell met me in the kitchen with quite the bewildered look on her face! I don't think she was a fan of all the loud noises. Haha! She followed me as usual as we went and got her breakfast. Noell followed me out to our spot after that. She was too freaked out by all the pounding and loud sounds that she couldn't concentrate on playing. She would try, then would stop at a loud bang. So, she mostly just wanted pets today. After awhile, she wandered on down the hall to go hide I think. Poor girlie. Haha.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This morning everyone joined me outside so they could take their potty breaks. They all raced back in to get their breakfasts. It wasn't quite as cool out this morning, so the girls didn't mind being outside as much. Hudson was at the far end of the yard, busy exploring. Gabbie hung out by the door most of the time. I guess she was still a little chilly. Haha. Blackie sat by me for his pets. Miss Zel was busy trying to dig to China! I got a kick out of that. Not sure what she was after. Later on, the neighbor dog appeared by the fence, so that got Hudson all worked up. Gabbie heard what he was saying, then took off sprinting across the yard to go join him. Silly pups! This evening I came in and saw Blackie had had a boo boo. I picked that up quick, then let the little ones out so they could all do their business. Everyone was so excited about dinner! They were all dancing around in the kitchen while they waited. After they all finished eating, we headed back outside for awhile. It was so nice out! They were all having fun exploring and wandering around in the dark until it was bedtime.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This morning it was pretty chilly out. I was greeted by all the pups at the door. They all raced to the back to go outside and do their thing. Hudson found something interesting in the yard, so he didn't come right back in like the others this morning. So, they all ate while we waited for him. He was ready by the time I let them back out again. The girls didn't appreciate the cold, so they waited by the door until it was time to head in. Zel eventually decided to go explore a little bit before that. When they came in, Zel hopped right in her bed to warm up a little. Haha! Blackie wandered off down the hall to go back to bed. This evening Blackie met me at the door. I let the little ones out and we all headed outside. I took the trash out to the street, so when I was coming back in the dark, Gabbie did her job and barked. Haha. The pups all came in and ate their dinners for me, then it was back out to play. It was much nicer out tonight and not so chilly! All four were busy exploring in the dark. Hudson was barking quite a bit and I realized he'd found a frog! He kept trying to pick it up, and discovered how tasty they are.... or not. Haha! He was foaming for a little bit, but still kept pestering the frog. When it was time to head in, Zel hopped right in her bed again. Blackie ventured down the hall, and Hudson worked on checking all the bowls for hopes of any leftovers.

Noell

This morning Noell came in through her kitty door, just as I was getting to the living room. She meowed good morning to me and started making her way down the hall. We got her breakfast and she nibbled on that a bit. By the time I got her box opened and ready to scoop, she decided she needed to go. Haha! I waited for her to do her thing, then finished my job. She met me in the living room and I got down her fishy for her. She chased that one around for awhile. Then, I grabbed the big mouse one to play with too. She kept running to her hiding spot behind the table and couch, so she could sneak up on it. Haha!
