Oscar

I got Oscar all riled up when I came in today! He was just so happy when I got there, I couldn't help but be happy too! I gave him some back scratches, then we made our way to the back door. As soon as he got out there, he found a nice sunny spot in the grass. He lounged around for awhile in different areas. He had the hiccups for a minute, which I couldn't help but giggle at. When they stopped, he rolled around in the grass, making silly sounds. "Ahhh this feels good!" The neighbor dog was getting all excited about the cows, so Oscar had to go to the fence to see what that was all about. His Boxer friend then came over to say hi. I got Oscar's frisbee out and threw it for him, which he just watched it land in the distance. Haha. As soon as I started to walk towards it, then he was ready to play. We played tug with that for awhile. Later, I noticed he was having fun with something in the grass. I went over to check out what it was, then he decided to pick it up and run away with it. It was a snake's shed skin! He kept running from me, so the only way I could get him to drop it was to go inside. Sneaky! Haha. We played inside for a little longer, then he got his snack.

Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon after I let Ruby out, she was the one to go get Rusty for me. She ran to the front room and returned with her buddy in tow. We headed outside after that. Rusty began exploring, and Ruby kind of stood around looking confused. She sure doesn't seem to know what to think of the patio situation. I called her over and she sat with me for some attention. Rusty eventually wandered over and deposited his toy at my feet. We played fetch for awhile, as Ruby sat and enjoyed her snuggles.

Winston

This afternoon Winston came out and was excited to go for his walk. We headed out and the sun was shining today. He did both of his duties pretty quick, so we wandered around a little after that. When we went inside again, Winston started telling me stories as soon as his harness was off. Then, he was frantically searching for a toy! He grabbed his orange guy, who was closest. We played a little bit of fetch with him at first. Winston was ready for a game of tug after a few throws. Since orange monster guy was in danger of having his arm amputated, I went looking for Winston's rope toy instead. I found that and we continued playing until it was time to go.

Eddie & Butler

I let Eddie out and he came over to say hi as I let Butler out. The boys both ran outside. Once I got out there, Butler saw me and came bouncing on over. He hopped on the table and gave me some kisses. Eddie saw that and had to join in! He sniffed at me for a bit and waited for his pets. Then, they both wandered off. They were happy to get some sunbathing in after a rainy day yesterday. It was actually even too hot out for them today. Eddie went inside first to go cool off. It wasn't long before Butler went in to join him on the cool tile floor.

Daisy & Figaro

This morning I got breakfast ready for Miss Daisy. She was sitting on the dryer, watching. I saw Figaro was sleeping soundly on her chair today. I got a picture before she woke up and appeared at the door. After Daisy was all taken care of, I went to go out by Figaro. We played with her toy for awhile and she had fun rolling and jumping around. Then, she just walked off. I watched to see what she was up to. She has two bowls of cool, clean water. But, she decided to go get a drink from one of the pot's drainage dishes. Silly cat! She came back and laid in her chair to groom for a little bit. Then, she wanted some love, so she wandered over for some chin scratches. I think Daisy was getting a little jealous today. She was sitting by the gate, meowing loud enough for me to hear. She could see me from where I was at.

Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon I let Ruby out, then Rusty came running in the kitchen to say hi. We headed outside right away. It was raining earlier pretty heavily, but it had let up just enough for our time outside. It was still lightly misting out, but not bad. Ruby still wasn't too thrilled! Haha. She ran out and did her business, then came zooming back and leaping on the patio. She stood and almost looked like she was sulking behind me. I don't think she's a fan of the wet weather! Rusty was exploring for awhile, then he brought over his new red ball for me to throw. I tossed sit for him, but he returned with his old ball instead! Haha. So, he had two out there to choose from today. Later, we headed inside and I got them some fresh water.

Eddie & Butler

This afternoon I let Eddie out, then he came running along excitedly as I went to let Butler out. We headed outside to the patio. It was raining pretty hard while I was there. The boys came and said hi to me for awhile. Butler was standing on the table, slathering me with kisses, while Eddie was on the other side, pawing at me for attention. Later, Butler was laying at the edge of the patio just under the roof, where he couldn't get wet. He looked so sad! Eddie didn't care too much and was roaming around in the rain. Butler finally joined him out there when they heard the neighbor dog bark. That made them go crazy for awhile! Haha. Eventually we headed in and they went to their beds and got a snack.

Winston

Little man came walking out slowly today when I opened the gate. Then I realized, he was a bit tangled up in his harness. I fixed that for him and we got ready to go for our walk. Luckily, the rain had let up just enough in time for us to go out. So, we were able to get a decent walk in today! Winston did his business. While we were out, we saw a couple other pups along the way. When we got back, I set him free and he went crazy! Haha. He was zooming around the house and across the couch, then back to me. We had fun playing with his orange monster dude for awhile. When Winston started doing his shredding thing, I looked around and saw his rope was nearby. I grabbed that, then he raced over to grab the other end. We played tug with that for awhile too. Then, his ears perked up and he dropped his end to listen. I'm not sure what he heard, but he got all worked up! He started to bark and look around. Silly boy.

Daisy & Figaro

This morning Daisy was sitting quietly on the counter by the door. I got her some food and she sat up and meowed at me a bit. It took her a few minutes, then she finally hopped down to go eat. I had went out to call for Figaro, but didn't see her anywhere. It was raining pretty good today, so I wasn't sure if I'd even see her. After going in and out a few times to take care of her things, she showed up at the door. When I opened it, she started trying to walk in. "Don't mind if I do!" Haha. I sat out on the patio with her and gave her some chin scratches for awhile. After that, we had fun playing. Today she was sitting under the table sticking her paws up through it to catch the toy!

Daisy & Figaro

This morning Daisy was sitting in the same spot when I arrived. She was meowing at me again while I got her food ready. Figaro had been lounging on her chair, but was up and at the door when she heard I was there. No presents today, so that was good! Haha. She followed me around while I got her fresh food and water and scooped her box. She would wait by the door for me to return every time. We got right to playing today. Figaro plopped down on her side and was ready to swat at her toy.
