Visit

Here is the gallery.

We have a rabbit that sits around with the dogs. Hallie tries to chase it but everyone else just looks with curiousity. I am surprised it is still here but it is. We haven't seem the baby squirrel since mom took it away.

Dogs hung outside with Nathan and Dennis on this coolish day. It is supposed to get warmer later on in the week.

Going to be a busy day tomorrow as we have a puppy vet visit 1st thing. 

Busy times but fun times.

Warm Day Outdoors

Here is a mini gallery.

Dennis said something was wrong with the camera. He clicked a lot of photos but not many were on the memory stick. hmmm

Well they did enjoy Dennis and outdoors.

Not an event filled day but more of a relaxing one.

Warm End of Month

Here is the mini gallery.

It's such an incredibly warm day. I need to sit outside but who has time - Dennis and the dogs. LOL I am happy for him. 

They lazed around and enjoyed - the whole lot of them. It is a quiet house with boarders, at this time so lazing is possible for some. We all need that!

Really Nice Warm Day

Here is the gallery.

It is amazing how warm it is at the end of September. I am greatly excited as the dogs enjoy it so. Even Harlow made sure she looked for critters today. The dogs played. They had a ton of fun and I even managed to go out and click a few photos giving me the opportunity to soak in the sun.

We had a lot of play today. We had a lot of investigating.

I still marvel at the little things. It is nice to have warmth, dogs, a roof over your head and let there be lights. LOL You don't know what you are missing till it is gone. Be thankful. I am! Most of all, I have the dogs in bed last night making me seat up a storm as they slept like a 2nd skin. Yes, I am even thankful for that.

Thank you to Atousa for the pumkin pie. It is Dennis' fave pie. I rather like pumpkin too. Most appreciated!

Warm Fall Daze

Here is the gallery.

Dogs are enjoying this wonderful weather. Are you?

Inside, outside and fun is had.

I so hope this weather lasts....

Warm Fall Day

Here is the gallery.

We had a busy day. Last night we had a baby squirrel we assumed fell out of a high nest - actually 2 did. One didn't make it. We assumed an animal got to it as the head was not attached. It was a brutal thing to see. The other one looked okay but how can you tell. Dennis did research. Knew the mother would not be back till early morning and placed it in a box in our basement. Come morning he placed it back out and had a camera on it so he saw mom come to get her baby. He removed the dead squirrel. He did a good thing. When we got up this morning, it was about the same time mom came so we had to let the dogs use pads and stay inside till she came for her baby.

Needless to say, Dennis didn't sleep much worrying. What can we say - we are softies.

Tomorrow we have puppy visits and the pups had baths. See their blogs. They are fluffy puppies.

Weather was warm but didn't get a change to enjoy it. Too much to do. 

Dogs did enjoy the weather and Dennis.

Nathan is on his way to a wedding with Bowie the chocolate dog we have boarding with us. He was Hallie's baby and Truffie. They want wedding photos and the wedding is in Newmarket. We did this for Remy too. It added an extra fun to the wedding and it makes it special.

Nathan is always willing to help with this sort of thing.

I am tired but looking forward to showing off the puppies.

Inside or Outside

Here is the gallery.

It rained. It didn't. They played indoors and out depending on when it stopped raining. LOL

We have very few visitors, at the moment so it is quieter here. 

I have cleaned many under carriages and paws. Finally, just past 5pm the sun came out only to go back in. LOL

The dogs have feasted and are now back outside. Harlow - as usual who eats heartily cries for her supper - like hurry up, Dennis. Maki played and played and found Nathan's lap. Daisy thinks she is at a party and is having the time of her life and so is Dash and Tessa. They make me laugh and I thank them for that!

I look around and marvel at I can do laundry but I wish I didn't have to. Still, I can. 

Tomorrow is busy as we get ready for Saturday's puppy visits. Baths times 8 plus a full regular grooming that I have slotted. Can't wait to see fluffy puppies!

Normalcy

Here is the gallery.

We have most of our electricity back. It was an experience and caused by a surge that took out our entire house. We had rewiring done but still have more to do but due to costs, we opt to get the rest done after we get paid for the pups as that is where the money must go. Just a reality.

It has not been fun but we are happy to have what we need working. I am also glad that the newborns now have a working heat lamp to keep them toasty.

Dogs were a bit off kilter last night as it was mighty dark in here and I had 2 hours sleep - seriously. That was a joke but I celebrate having light and electricity. I believe they do too.

Although it was raining, Dennis spent the time running with the dogs to chase their willys out - so to speak. The dogs had a blast! They always do!

Electric Issues

We are down. Can't do updates. They said they are working on it but it most likely won't be fixed till late tonight or tomorrow.

I sent Nathan for camping lights. 

It appears it was a power surge with our house that took out our house.

Blog Will Be Late

Just wanted to tell you that this blog may be late or non existent today. 

Dennis cut a hole into the metal on the side of my washer as it was not draining except every 3rd time. He removed hair - tons of it - after watching a youtube video. What a smart son we have! Fixed it so he would be able to remove hair in the future easily without taking the washer apart. I have been doing laundry all night. It works like it is new. Have 2 more loads to dry. I have water dishes down. They get up in an hour and I may sit in the recliner and nod off for 30 minutes if allowed.

Nathan has to bring Harlow into the vet as she is uncomfortable and will feel better after drainage. He is tired too but important not to delay. It would kill him and me too if she was uncomfortable as we missed an appointment. The dogs count the most here!

While Nathan was gone, he left me a rental in case of an emergency. I didn't need it but peace of mind is worth everything. He needs to return it this morning too. 

Told him I can't do this guys trip for him when I have older pups, boarders and impending pups. I may be able to climb tall buildings in a single bound but that was way too much. Then we have puppy visits. I also after that have to do all the stuff I do to send them home. No sleep with Yoshi - crazy crazy.

Dennis will sleep this afternoon after me and do the night duty. So far everyone is doing well including Yoshi who after the last finally calmed down. Read her blog for the surprise.

He will also run like crazy and chase the willy out of the dogs and they will have a blast. Normal life. I just don't feel normal in the least. Drank and drank coffee. 

Sorry Mini Blog

Here is a mini gallery.

Have to focus on Yoshi. 

Dogs are having fun. Our washer now won't work so Nathan may have to go to the laundrymat in a couple of days. Dennis is going to try to fix after Nathan is up from his nap. He had zero naps on holiday.

It is nice and warm outside and the dogs like to laze outside.

Sorry for such a short blog but it is what it is.

Nathan Returns and Outdoor Fun

Here is the gallery.

The dogs had a blast. It was a celebration of movement.

Nathan got home this afternoon. The dogs were happy to see him. He sounds grouchy. Shouldn't I be? LOL

Yoshi was so glad to see him and then looked at me as if to say, is that okay I am so excited? I said to Nathan, look at that side eye she is giving me. She has been hiding, as of late and we can't let her outside or she will go under the deck. 

Nathan helped out with the pups while I groomed. It was welcomed. I didn't quite feel so terribly busy.

Thanks to Ronnie for picking me up shawarma. 

The dogs I had all to myself. It was great to have the bed full of them!

Fun Was Had

Here is the gallery.

I am glad I am not the only one. Dennis spaced out and didn't take that many photos. We have been doing this since Monday so forgive us. I find it hysterical that it's not just that I am older. 

Dennis spent some time sitting and playing with the dogs. I see that he was slower in his motion. But the dogs enjoyed anyways. They love him and his fun and it is so much fun. 

The dogs ran, played and chilled. They had a really really great day!!

Oh the Warm Play

Here is the gallery.

The dogs had a lovely day of play today in the bright warm sunshine. Tomorrow it is supposed to rain. sigh

We are still setting up Yoshi's pen so we are working from both ends, so to speak.

Tomorrow Lachlan, Marlie and Benny departs. Some of our best players and Lachlan's brother Ollie arrives. Miss KeKe departed as well and now I get why she was over the moon happy to see Sage as Sage is her mom. No matter how old they get....

Soon we will have to get the outdoor furniture in but we will milk it and take blankets out, if pups allow. It depends on how small Yoshi's pups are. She only had 2 last time and they were smaller than Hallie's and Namis even in adulthood but they were great and easy pups. I hope the same this time around.

Benny had a field day chasing a rabbit full out chase and the rabbit went under the fence. Benny barked as if to say where did you go. He had this comical face on him and Lachlan and Daisy was his side kicks helping to cut the rabbit off at the pass. Did I have my camera? No. I was so frustrated as I would have loved to share that comedy hour. Oh well, just a story I can tell and tell. They so had fun!

Hot Day in Paradise

Here is the gallery.

Now that Nathan is not hogging Benny, I get to enjoy him. I started cleaning around his eyes but I still have a strand, I see. LOL It is that back hair that flipped forward. Thank you for letting me know, lil man. I am going to hate to see him go. He is such an outstanding boy. He is a hunter, a lover a chillin man. Oh they all have their uniqueness but he never wants for much except to be and enjoy. 

Lachlan and Marlie was seen making comical faces today. I think Dennis caught one. They so love each other through and through. What a great match!

Dennis fell asleep on the couch cuddled up to the dogs and I almost didn't want to interrupt them. They all looked so peaceful. Dennis was tired. He does so much too and always has time to cuddle, play and make the dogs life wonderful. That, to me, is special. 

We had a full day. We will go back out and play with the dogs. I already had the pups out twice. They will go out again before bedtime. We are crawling into bed about 11pm. My watch said I had 3.5 hours of sleep. hahahaha

Mr. Logan was active last night. I didn't sleep much so I am feeling it now. I hope to sleep tonight.

Keke just adores Dennis and I mean adores him. It is precious. Well, they all do in their own way but some dogs just stare and saddle up to him as if to say, can I get close?

I could go on but forgive me. I have yet to eat. I have been grooming, pups, laundry and all that fun stuff. 

It's Busy

Here is a mini gallery.

The dogs were playing hard today but with Nathan away, Dennis is taking less photos. Apologies but a reality. They mucked it up so much I have lots of comb outs to do. So laughing but I will do one here and there and play catch up with my own dogs. They won't mind. LOL

The weather is so good that the dogs are loving it and it is supposed to be downright hot tomorrow so we will have pups out again tomorrow. The dogs will enjoy more sunshine.

I hear Nathan went out on a boat. I wish.

It is our youngest son's birthday so we will have to take him out to eat after Yoshi blesses us with her pups. When is that? Anytime from this weekend on. Nathan is not due back till late Saturday night. Must be wishful thinking as I thought it was Friday. Life is but a dream.

I so hope this nice weather lasts but it won't.

Wild Day

Here is the gallery.

I am sorry. I am late. Everyone had a great time. 

The dogs played and played but I also had grooming, cut my exercise to 15 minutes. I am doing the best that I can. 

The dogs always have a great time and Dennis made sure of it today.

We have an extra late night to bed tonight. Me, I have dishes and dogs to get ready for bed and the blogs.

Oh That Sun

Here is the gallery.

Can you believe I combed him out this morning. I so laugh. He so loves to muck it up. I may cut his bangs tomorrow. 

I am finally well. If you think you are sick, please wear a mask when picking up or bringing your dog. I can not afford to get sick. I have worn one when I needed to answer the door but I no longer need one. Who can afford to get sick but its just Dennis and I this week and I need to be on the top of my game. It felt good to not have a foggy head. I really felt sick despite not being able to rest or I may have got better sooner.

We have Sage in heat - not being bred so we have a lot of who goes where stuff going on in the house. It just complicates it but I can climb tall buildings in a single bound or so it seems. 

The dogs LOVED LOVED being outside today and if I am finding myself with too much time on my hands, I may take the pups outside in the next couple of days. Imagine that!

Nathan is taking the pups out in the hall tonight so I have less to do today. I insisted. 

Dogs just ate and are back outside playing and lazing.

No Gallery Day

Sorry - I am behind as Dennis was sick with a migraine and Nathan was out and about getting ready for his trip. That left me doing everything so no photos have been taken yet. I am sorry. Just too busy with pups, photos, galleries, grooming etc. 

Dogs really enjoyed the weather when Dennis was back up. 

Harlow especially is relishing the warm weather. I wish I was. so laughing....

But I am so happy they are. That does my heart good.

So, apologies but I need to groom then we have pups heading upstairs and there is a lot to be done for that too.

Warm Summer Like Day

Here is the gallery.

It was a warmish summer like day and the dogs enjoyed being outdoors. It is supposed to be like this for an extended period. We will enjoy it and maybe this crud will go away. I am better today. Not whole but indeed a bit better but when I tried exercising, my body revolted. Oh well. 

The dogs are much like us. We like the warmth of the sun and to laze outside as much as the weather allows. It will be too soon that we will get that white stuff.

I also had my mind go crazy thinking maybe Yoshi may have pups while Nathan is gone so I had him take her in for an xray. See her blog for more details. Now I get her morning sickness.

Neo arrived and was a tad hesitant when she 1st came in and then now she remembers and oh another holiday - this can be fun. She is now relaxed and enjoying.

OMG I am so laughing that Coco is Miss Bossy pants today. Each new dog she has to say - see this is what you need to do, what to see etc. She is ever so funny!

I could go on but I won't. I have videos to upload and I am crashing. Apologies.
