Dakota & Benny

Today Benny didn't run to greet me at the door. He kind of peeked around the corner shyly. I guess someone was feeling guilty... I noticed there were some napkins all torn up on the couch! Silly boy! I let Kota out and started getting out their leashes when we heard a knock on the door. The lawn guy had shown up while I was there. Kota and Benny were just barking away while I was out talking to him. We got on our way and took a nice long walk on such a nice day! There were lots of snacks on the sidewalk today that we had to quickly pass so they couldn't eat them. We passed some crushed up chips, some candy, and Kota even picked up an acorn to crunch on until she realized it wasn't that tasty.

Maggie & Moe

The girls came running when they heard me come inside! We went out to play in the backyard for awhile. As soon as they got out there, they took off running and chasing each other in circles. Maggie found a rawhide out there, so she of course had to bury it! I watched her paw a little hole for it, then she'd push the loose grass with her nose to cover it up. She laid down next to it to guard her precious find. Moe went wandering over by her, and the cover was blown. Maggie had to quick grab it out and hunt for a new hiding place! She buried it in several different spots while we were out there. What a silly girl! Miss Moe came over by me for some attention in between chasing after Maggie. We headed back inside when they were finished playing and got a couple yummy treats. The girls both decided to have some supper while I was still there.

Hmmm... how about here?

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I pulled up and little Buddy came around the corner of the house! Sugar followed shortly after and I said hi to them quick before heading inside. I went and sat out there with them for awhile. Sugar came over to snuggle! Jimmy boy got a little jealous though, so he was bouncing around, playfully mouthing my hand, "No, pet me! Pet me!" or nudging Sugar out of the way. He's such a little goober. Jimmy got his turn for attention though. He snuggled up with me and would tilt his head back and look at me with such a cute little face. Buddy came over to say hi, then found a nice spot in the grass to curl up for a snooze. He looked so cute and cuddly!

Dakota & Benny

Today was nice and cool out, perfect for a nice long walk! It was a pretty quiet day for us, not too much exciting happened. Benny did try chasing after a police car though! Naughty...hehe When we came around the corner, a couple officers were standing in the street talking. I talked with the one and he chuckled about it! Kota chased after a few leaves and Benny said hi to his puppy friends that were outside. When we got home, Kota went and curled up in her crate while I tossed the ball a couple times for Benny.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon everyone was ready to go outside, even lil Miss Sugar! The boys headed off to the side of the house right away to find a nice spot to lay and soak up some sun. Sugar wandered her way over there too, once the boys were exploring. Since it was such a nice day out, I let them spend the rest of the afternoon outside to enjoy the weather!

This morning I let the babies outside right away. Sugar was not a happy camper... too chilly out for her! She came inside while the boys did their searching around the yard. They had to check out a couple branches by the fence that must have fallen in the wind yesterday. Sugar followed me around while I got the boy's meds together. They heard her barking, so then they wanted to come in and eat too! Buddy ate all of his but left one of his pills in there. I tried putting more of the Beneful in his dish, but he still ate around it. I tried putting it in a few different things, but he'd pick it out every time! Little stinker! Eventually I got him to take it though. After breakfast, the boys went to play outside some more. Sugar stayed in and snuggled up with me for awhile.

Sasha

Sasha met me this morning by the couch and said hello with her little "meows". She followed me into the kitchen and paced as I got her breakfast ready! Again, she loved her yogurt dish and lapped that up right away! I brought out the kitchen trash after I scooped the litter box. After I came in, Sasha had jumped up on the leather chair! I sat down on the floor next to her and scratched her ears. She then jumped off the chair and down by the fireplace. Sasha looked at the tennis ball on the floor and meowed a few times, as if to say "let's play catch"! I rolled it over to her, but she just stared at it! She then got tired of this and went back to her perch on the couch! I sat down and talked to her and thanked her for a fun week! See you next time, Sasha!

Shelby, Bitty, Spirit and Baby

All three were waiting for me at the door when I arrived this morning! I gave the cats a scratch on the head and then it was treat time for Shelby! The orange kitty met Shelby and I outside with a few, loud "meows". We played around in the back yard and then sat on the porch, while the sprinklers watered the lawn. I refreshed Shelby's water outside and said goodbye. Baby was sleeping in the sun when I turned on the light. I refreshed his water too and gave him some food and hay! Back out in the living room, I sat on the floor and gave Bitty and Spirit some more scratches. Well, my time was up, so I gave each one a hug goodbye! See y'all next time!

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon the pups were ready for their walk! It was really nice out today, but very windy. We took one of our long routes backwards today, since up ahead were a bunch of little girls with their little unleashed puppies! All the dogs started getting excited when they saw each other, so we turned around and avoided that trouble... hehe. Benny thought it was a whole new place, but eventually started to recognize his usual favorite houses. Kota got two comments on how gorgeous she was today! Kota got to meet the neighbor Boxer puppy while I held Benny in my arms. They both were nervous but really wanted to play! When we got home Kota had some lunch before it was time to go. Tonight we played outside in the backyard when I got there. Kota turned into the wind, stuck her tail straight out and leaned into it like she was a flying super dog! It was so funny! We decided to take a shorter walk this evening and they were very happy about that. When we got home they played in back for a few more minutes before coming in. Kota had some supper while Benny and I played with his orange ball.

Ok I'm ready... throw it!

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon the pups starting barking as I walked in the door and said hi! I feel like I haven't seen the kiddos in forever! The boys came outside with me right away and Sugar went into her cave. It was sooo windy outside. Buddy and Jimmy didn't seem to mind though. They went about their business as usual. Jimmy came and hung out with me for awhile, getting his attention! Buddy walked around a little, then curled up in a nice spot in the grass. He circled around until he found the perfect spot to lay! Jimmy looked up at me as if to ask, "Can I go play now?". I said "Ok!" and he immediately zoomed off to the side of the house where the soffet comes down. He started digging around and searching for something! Buddy, at the same time, decided to search by the pots. They're so funny! Later Sugie came out to join us for a bit.
