Oscar

This afternoon Oscar was right at the door to see me. He started bouncing and turning in circles as we made our way to the door. Happy boy! Haha. As soon as we got out there, he had his sights locked on his squirrel friend again. Soon, Oscar was finding a spot in the sun to warm up and relax. He had to go patrol the front of the yard for a bit as well. He saw some people out walking today. Oscar let me know when he was ready to head in and cool off. Since we had a little time left, we got to play with some of his toys for a bit. Oscar snacked on his food a little too before I left.

Winston

Today Winston did a big stretch while he waited for me to open his gate. I got his harness on and away we went! It sure was toasty outside today. Winston did his business for me. After that, he was watching a lady walking in the distance. Next, it was time to go sniff around. I had a little laugh at how he kept to the shade as much as he could. He'd see a shady spot and go running for it! Haha. We wandered around for awhile, then it was time to go in and cool off. Winston waited for me to take his harness off, then he was ready for playtime! I grabbed a rope toy and we played tug for awhile.

Winston

This afternoon Winston was waiting by his gate, ready to come out. He pranced over to the door to wait for me. After he got his harness on, we headed out. Winston had to check out the first bush we came to. After that, he spotted a couple other dogs across the way. They were pretty far from us, but he made sure to stop and watch them for a bit. After they wandered off out of sight, we continued on our leisurely stroll. Winston led the way again today and got to work out his sniffer. He was getting a little toasty this afternoon, so we headed back a few minutes early to cool off. Winston slid around on the floor until I took his harness back off. Goofy boy! Then, he had to show me each and every toy today! He couldn't decide which to play with. Haha. So, we played a little fetch with all of them.

Oscar

I came in today and since Oscar wasn't by the door, I slowly peeked around the corner. He was standing at the edge of the living room, waiting to see who was home. He saw it was me and started bouncing around excitedly! I gave him some hello pets, then he made his way to the door. As soon as he got outside, Oscar ran to the edge of the patio and stopped suddenly. I knew exactly what he was looking at! There was a little squirrel traipsing around on the other side of the fence. I guess that's why he didn't try to go chase it! Haha. After the squirrel ran up a tree, Oscar finally found a spot to lounge in the grass. He did lots of sunbathing today. I got him some fresh water in his bowl outside, which he got up to check out. When it was time, we headed in for his snack!

Winston

This afternoon little Winston was wiggling his heiny in his room when I came in. I let him out and he ran to the door to wait for me to put his harness on for him. We made our way outside for a nice little walk. Winston did his business right away. After that, we did some exploring. He had to make sure and check out all the trees. A butterfly floated past him and he was curious about it, then went to follow it for a second. So cute! I let him lead the way while we wandered around. We headed back in and got a little game of tug in before we were done.

Quinney, Billy & the gang

This morning the pups went out back to do their thing. I got their breakfast ready while they were out. I put some canned food in Billy's bowl for an extra little snack this morning. She's been doing so well! By the time I was done, Billy and Quinney were both waiting at the door to come in and eat. I got Oreo some breakfast while they worked on that. The kitties got their windows open and their faucet turned on. Pepper hopped up on the counter right away for a few pets. Salt was standing in the doorway to see what we were up to. Soon, it was time to let the pups outside again. The kitties were waiting for me to return. We got some playtime in with their string. This evening, the pups went out while I got their dinner ready. They came in and Quinney worked on his. Billy was too excited to eat. They zoomed out of their beds when it was time and we went out back. I got them some fresh water out there and we played for a few minutes. The kitties were sitting and waiting for me. Salt played while Pepper got her pets. Before I left, I went to turn their sink off. Chili had been busy getting a drink, and she waited on the counter to get a little attention. Everyone did great! They will be happy to have their family home soon! :)

Tux, Molly & Panda

This morning the kiddos raced outside, ready to play. Panda was bouncing up and down at my feet. "Give me my toy!" Haha. I did and she ran off, having fun shaking it around. Molly was off searching for critters. I went and watered the plants while they were busy. Molly had found a giant toad by the time I got back. Silly girl. Bubba and Panda got some fetch time in. Panda was happy to switch toys, so we got lots of throws in for them to chase after. Later, we headed inside and I gave Tux his medicine, topped off their food and water, and gave them an extra cookie for being so good!

Oscar

This afternoon my buddy met me in the hall for some hello pets. He led me to the back door and we headed outside. Oscar came over for some more pets again today, before picking out a spot in the grass to lounge. It was toasty out there today. Oscar did plenty of sunbathing, then he let me know he wanted to go in and cool off. He got a drink and I refilled his bowl for him. Then, we had a little play time with his lobster toy!

Tux, Molly & Panda

This morning the crew went outside with me when I arrived. Panda was bouncing up and down, ready for a toy. I went and took care of the plants, while the pups tagged along. Molly checked out the bushes, while Tux had his eye on the pond. He must have been looking for critters. Afterwards, Bubba and I got a good game of fetch. Panda would run along with him most of the times, and she was a little better about sharing this morning. Haha. This afternoon, I let the pups out. Molly went straight for the corner by the garbage can to get something. I thought maybe she had her frog friend at first. But this time, Panda was very intrigued as well. She made me laugh so hard. Panda went to check it out and jumped about 3 feet straight up in the air! That was the funniest thing! So, I went over to check out what they'd found. It was a teeny baby snapping turtle. And boy he was sure trying to defend himself. I picked it up to try and move it away, but the girls tried to get it from me. When it was time to go in, I had to get Molly since she wasn't giving up. This evening, the pups raced out back to play. Bubba and I got a little fetch time in, but Panda was trying to hog all the toys to herself. Molly helped too. Haha. We went in when it was time for bed and they got their cookies, and Tux his bedtime medicine.

Quinney, Billy & the gang

This morning the pups were getting all excited in their beds when I first came in. I let them out back for their potty break. Miss Billy hadn't eaten dinner, so she got some yums mixed in with her food. They came in and both licked their bowls clean for me. Oreo got some breakfast quick, then the pups and I headed out back again. I got them some more water in their bowls out there and we had some fun playing with the hose. Billy got so excited after she got to take a drink from it. Haha! The pups wandered around a bit, then Billy came to get some pets. I went in to check on the kitties and open their windows for them. Pepper wanted her attention. Salt got to play a little bit with the string and the green tunnel. Chili was being shy this morning and hung out under the bed for the most part. This evening the pups went out and came back in for their dinners. I finally got to see one of the hermit crabs tonight, moving around! I wasn't quite sure if they were still in there. Haha. Oreo got some carrots and hay, then a few pets as well. The pups went out back to play, while I visited with the kitties tonight. Salt and Pepper were busy playing at first. Pepper was going crazy, jumping around on the bed and chasing the string! Then, Pepper was in quite the lovey mood. She snuggled up next to me, just laid there and purred away.
