Hudson, Gabby, Zel & Blackie

This evening Black was right at the door to greet me. He walked me to the stairs,  while I went up to let the little ones out. I took them all outside, one by one. They all did their business. Then, it was time to come in and eat! I filled everyone's bowls as they lined up. Hudson did well and didn't try to steal anyone's dinner. Gabby was last to finish tonight. Hudson had to check out all the bowls when they were finished, for any leftovers. We sat in the living room for awhile. Zel worked on her bone, while the others were trying to get my attention. I had Gabby and Hudson both in my lap and Black in front of me. Later, they all went out again once more before bed.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

Today Rusty came wiggling over to see me. Ruby got out of her bed and raced around the house. She took off down the hall and to the front room, then finally was ready to go outside. It wasn't quite as chilly out today, so the pups spent some time outside. They were busy exploring for awhile. We headed in and went to go visit Mr. Kitty. He hopped up in my lap and snuggled for a bit, purring away. He soon was ready to play! I got out his mouse toy and he was jumping all over the place. When he was getting tired, it was Rusty's turn to play. We headed outside and played some fetch.

Sadie, Zoie & Cole

Tonight Sadie and Zoie met me in the laundry room, as usual. I let Sadie outside quick. Zoie was busy following me and grumbling, while she was carrying around her toys. She makes me laugh. Cole was excited to go out next as he bounced around the living room. Everyone came back inside to eat their dinners. Sadie finished hers, as well as her leftovers from breakfast. When she was done, she went and plopped on the living room floor, showing me her belly. She was ready for her tummy scratches! Zoie just sat in front of me with her toy collection. Cole joined us later. Sadie always gets so jealous when I give him his heiny scratches. After one more potty break, I tucked them all in for the night.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

Today I let Ruby out, then Rusty appeared from somewhere to say hi. They went outside quick to do their business. It sure was cold out today! Rusty and Ruby both headed in when they were done. They snuggled up on the couch by me to warm up. Little Lance was ready to play! He was zooming around and having a blast. Ruby got a little spunky too and was hopping up and down from the couch and running circles around the living room. Rusty got into it too and then he and Ruby were wrestling around, being silly. I took Rusty out later to get a short game of fetch in, since it was so cold today.

Hope & Tag

Today Hope gave me a big bear hug when I walked in the door. The pups went on ahead of me to wait at the back door. Hope's little pals were outside next door while we were today. She went to say hi, then came back for some more attention. When she got bored with me, she ran over to go pick on Tag. She sure loves him! She was all up in his face, being playful. He got tired of that after awhile and had to scold her a bit. And just like a teenager, of course, she didn't listen! Haha. She left him alone after a few minutes and they both did some exploring. We didn't stay out quite as long today, since it was the coldest day yet! They came inside to warm up and get their snacks.

Sadie, Zoie & Cole

This evening the pups were all excited to see me. I let Sadie out right away, then went to get Cole up from his nap. It took him a little bit of coaxing to get him outside. Zoie went out for her turn too, then I got them their dinners and allergy pills. Cole took quite awhile to finish up tonight. Sadie and I played in the living room. She rolled around on the floor, then would sneak her kisses. She was happy for some tummy scratches! Zoie ran over and was wanting to play with her tennis ball. I had a laugh when Sadie was lying on the floor and Zoie was playfully pushing the ball against her forehead. Haha! Then, Zoie came and did the same thing to my hand. I actually got the ball from her a couple times and we played a little fetch.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

Today Rusty came into the laundry room to say hi, heiny wiggling away! I let miss Ruby out, then they went outside. She had a boo boo in her bed, so I cleaned that up quick. I went out to play fetch with Rusty, but he was busy exploring. Back inside, Lance decided to come give me some company. He curled up on my lap for awhile. Rusty and Ruby snuggled up next to us. It didn't take long before Lance was nibbling on my fingers and getting in his play mode! I got out his mouse toy and had him playing with that for awhile. Later, I took Rusty back outside and we got a couple throws in, before he got distracted.

Hope & Tag

Today both Hope and Tag greeted me at the front door. We headed to the back to go outside right away. Miss Hope saw her friends were outside already, so she ran to the fence to say hi. Tag came up to me to be pet quick, before he ran off to explore. It sure was chilly today! The sun at least gave a little warmth. The pups didn't seem to mind at all! We stayed out almost the whole time while they played. Hope chased after Tag to wrestle with him a bit, but mostly she stayed by the fence to play with her friends. When we got back inside, they lined up and sat nicely for their treats.

Sadie, Zoie & Cole

Tonight I could hear Zoie barking inside the house when I pulled up. Sadie & Zoie met me inside the laundry room. Those two were eager to go outside to do their business. I had to go looking for Cole. He must have been napping in his bed. He went out to do his thing too, then I got them all their dinner. Everyone finished up pretty quick. Zoie was gathering her toys and playing keep away again. She finally relaxed and laid on her bed. But if I even glanced at her, she'd quickly grab everything and get prepared to run. Haha! Sadie sat in front of me and gave me her kisses the whole time. I got them all tucked in bed with their snacks when it was time.

RJ, Chipper & Keaton

Today the boys gathered outside at the gate when I pulled up. They announced my arrival, then lined up in the garage to greet me. After a few minutes, we headed out back. They did their business, then came back inside to eat a bit. Later, I got them their rawhide snacks to work on. RJ wasn't too worried about his. He just wanted attention! He put his paws on my legs to stand up closer to me. Chipper and Keaton laid on opposite ends of the rug to work on theirs. Then, all of a sudden, they started to get into it. I jumped up and got them separated immediately. I sent RJ and Chipper outside to calm down for a minute. I took away all the rawhides, so they wouldn't get upset again. Everyone was fine after that and started to work on dinner again. I refilled their bowls and got them some fresh water.
