Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

This afternoon I let everyone outside to play since it was so nice out! They did some exploring, then each found a spot to curl up in the sun for awhile. Sugar eventually moved into the shade on her comfy bed. Jimmy was sprawled out on the pool cover like it was his own personal hammock! He cracks me up. Buddy had brought out a treat with him that he worked on for a bit. I let the kiddos stay out inside the house for the afternoon. When I arrived this evening, everyone ran to say hi, then raced to the back door. We went outside for them to go potty, then came back in for meds. Afterwards, we all went outside again since it was still so nice out. Jimmy and Buddy went to say hi to the chocolate lab next door. Sugar mainly lounged around on her bed. When it was time, they came in and all got their bedtime snack.

Buckley, Chloe, Tizzy, JR & Bootsie

Today all four pups came racing out of the bedroom, ready to go! They all zoomed around to the back of the yard to their tree. Today they were all racing back and forth from one end of the yard to another. Buckley took a break to go for a dip in the pool. Then, he laid down with a toy and played with that for a bit. Tizzy and JR went for a swim next. Chloe and Tizzy spent most of their time sitting by the corner tree, staring up at it. Tizzy would run up the side once in awhile. Later, I saw them both sitting in the very corner of the yard, looking up at the telephone pole! They were so cute. JR stayed by me for awhile and cleaned off his fur. Then, he would curl up in the shade nearby. Buck went from one shady area to another to lounge around. Back inside, I got them some fresh water as they curled up on their beds. Bootsie was already comfy in his!

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

As soon as the back door opened this afternoon, Roxy, Dilly and Biscuit all went racing to chase off a flock of birds! Once they had all flown away, everyone went to their exploring. Roxy found her ball and got me to play some fetch with her. Biscuit joined in a few times, but he was more interested in checking things out. Out of the corner of her eye, Roxy saw another bird and went chasing it around to the side of the house. Bert came outside next and found a toy to prance around with. She brought it over by me, then sat for a short back scratch. She gave me a kiss on my knee as a thank you before she went off to do some sniffing around too.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

Tonight Jimmy and Buddy both came running to greet me at the door! I called for Sugar, but she was comfortable in her cave. So, just the boys and I went outside for awhile. We came back in when it was time for meds. Sugar emerged when she heard the clinking of the plates. After dinner, everyone went outside with me again. Jimmy had fun racing with the neighbor dog! Sugar did some exploring, then relaxed on her bed. Buddy, was of course, checking everywhere for critters.

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

This afternoon Dilly was bouncing up at me like crazy as we headed outside! It was a very comfortable day out already, so all three pups had some fun exploring. They got excited to see someone walking off in the distance. Then later it was pretty quiet as they all just sniffed around and rolled around in the grass. Bert did the same when it was her turn to go outside. She spent the whole time just wandering around.

Miranda

Today miss Miranda peeked through the door at me as I opened it. Then, she raced to wait for me at the back door. Outside she ran and pounced on her favorite toy, then brought it over to me. She sat by me and walked in circles to get all of her back scratched. One of the neighbor dogs was barking, so Miranda stuck be me. We played a little fetch, then she sprawled out in the grass for awhile.

Chelsea

This morning Chelsea was up and at the front door waiting for me. She pranced into the kitchen and showed me where her food container was while I got her breakfast. She quickly polished off her bowl, then took a quick potty break outside. Next, she did her little dance in front of me, getting excited for our walk! We got a nice long walk in this morning. After we got home, we sat in the living room and I gave her lots of hugs and kisses. She kept getting excited and running into the kitchen, thinking it was treat time. Then she would run back and give me her face hugs. I gave Chelsea a couple treats and turned on her music for her. I'm sure going to miss her!!!

Annie

This morning little Annie was curled up on her bed, wagging her tail at me. She was just a little shy, but wagged her tail more and more as I pet her and talked to her. I got her leash on and we went for a little stroll around the neighborhood. When we got back, she curled up next to me and nudged my hand with her nose for me to pet her. Soon she was sprawled out on her back, getting a nice long belly rub! This afternoon as soon as I opened the door, she excitedly ran to me! We got her leashed up and took another long walk around the neighborhood. I wanted to take her over by the water fountains, and saw there was a goose just sitting in the road. I thought as we got closer that it would fly away, but it didn't. It opened up its mouth and started hissing at us! So, I immediately turned Annie around and we quickly headed the opposite direction! Back at the house, Annie hopped up on her bed and rolled over for some more belly rubs. She was almost falling off, so I held her head with my other hand. I think she fell asleep, but her eyes were still open. She suddenly jumped and scared me! This evening I got Annie's benadryl, dinner and other goodies together. I brought them in and she finished them all for me. After dinner she and I went on another walk out back. She got a few more belly rubs inside before I left. She is such a sweetie!

Biscuit, Dilly, Jezebel & Roxy

This afternoon it was raining outside. The little ones hung out on the porch for a few minutes and debated whether or not they were going to go out. Eventually they wandered off into the yard, one by one. Biscuit would go out and explore a little, then come back to the dry patio. Roxy soon found her ball and wanted to play some fetch in the rain! She had a blast! Water went flying up behind her as she raced to get the ball. Later it was Bert's turn to come outside. She walked around in the grass, not minding the rain. Soon it had slowed to a sprinkle, so she continued to explore. Back inside I got everyone their treats before I left.

Chloe

Today it was raining when I arrived. I was met by a happy little Chloe, with her tail wagging away! I noticed she had found her Frisbee toy and it was laying next to her. So, we played some fetch with that for awhile. She had so much fun! She would race off after it, and even once in awhile she would jump up and catch it in the air. She would come trotting happily back to me. But, she didn't want to give it back, so she played a game of keep-away! I chased her around and around. Then I waited until she was ready to put it down, and threw it some more. She spent some time snuggling up by me too, to get a good back scratch. I got her a couple treats before I left.
