Cooling Down

Here is the gallery.

I trimmed a bit around Coco's eyes as she kept getting discharge from her eye from hair poking in. Whem it is between, it happens but she kept rubbing her face. Once I did that, she stopped. 

Coco is a gal with attitude. She tells you what she needs always.

Harlow is sporting a shorter beard. I may give her a bit of a haircut here and there as I like to not force her to deal with a full groom all at once so I wash them trim here and there. She likes that better. So a 1 day process ends up as a 2 day much like Tia who is not happy with grooming as she is solidly a senior.

Dogs played in and out. Harlow is still coveting the big crate. She rolls her body all in it and we put war, blankets into it daily as she seems to like the warmness. We also put ice in the water dishes. What can I say, we try to make their lives comfortable.

Dash and Tessa are bonded, it seems though they both play with others. Dash is at the age that he is more deliberate and Tessa wriggles her body all over the place. Sometimes Dash says I am done and she listens after about the 3rd time. It is funny. 

Lachlan and Ollie got to play with each other. Brothers enjoy that. Marlee puts up with it but sometimes says ME TOO!

Benny and Marlee have foubd that they have mutual investigation games to play. I think they are looking for rabbits.

Harper well she loves to sit on high and she covets her spots. Ty is having a grand time rolling here and there and enjoying the fresh air. He is very comfortable here.

Socks and Hazel are here an extra night. Our thoughts are with them dealing with a human loss. 

I could go on and on but got laundry to do, dogs to snuggle at tv time and well, I am tired.

Yes, that very much sounds like Benny - the rabbit hunter! 😀
Is Marlee a Cinnamon puppy ? If so, they are half brothers.
Thank you for the updates. Always fun to read.
For some reason the gallery link for Friday does not seem to work. I will try again later.

I have to look into it as it is broken on this end too. Sorry.

No worries at all. You have your hands full.
We appreciate everything you’re doing.
