Tuesday Blues

Well, what is it about Tuesdays?

Everyone got groomed and I don't mean just a cursory grooming but the real deal and then that human Mommy went out with us and we looked at her with much curiousity as she clipped this, clipped that and we said to ourselves, what the hey, we like it overgrown, lady!

How do you think we are going to play hide and seek.

But that human fizzled out fast and didn't get much done as she mumbled about the lack of garden bags.

Everyone was sniffing up a storm, which is usual after a big storm. All those smells surface, I imagine. Glad I don't have their smell capacity.

Yes, Wasabi was groomed too but this was her after grooming look. hahahaha She drives the mom crazy mucking up under the deck and looking as ragged as she possibly can just for the fun of it right after she is groomed.

I didn't get to any photos and I know I promised them today but I am out of steam. Tomorrow, tomorrow!

I do promise.

On Friday this duo is going to have their ultrasounds and we will start updating their individual blogs daily. Wasabi is eating like we are starving her quite literally and Abigail is eating better but needs the extra good stuff to entice. This is norm with these two.

More tomorrow and the humans will be recovered by then, we promise!

Pregnancy & Demeanor

For some reason pregnant gals get way sucky and they sort of go partially off their food, at this time.

Both gals are doing this saddling up to me every chance they can get. They also are not eating fully till dinner time.

Yes, the gals do have morning sickness. It's not just us humans.

I am still not totally up to par but Nathan is off tonight to handling class with the Spice. Maybe she will get the hang of this stuff when she has her first show and if not, well she will do it again. hahahaha

Shall We Dance

Have you ever wondered what they are doing in this stance?

It is simply an action of advantage and Spice is learning this well.

Spice is independent like her mom and they seem to be two peas in a pod. They still play all day and at night Spice crawls up next to her canine mom in bed and settles in. We keep hoping she will settle in next to our head but the attraction of mom is too great.

That doesn't stop her from walking all over our bodies, jumping as if we are trampolines meant to be pounced on till we go woah! We love the enthusiasm and she seems to get this at bed time in spades but just like your dad little Spice you aren't going to attempt to walk up our bodies.

But on the positive front she is hitting the pad always or outside. She doesn't hit the bell except to say outside yet again. But we are working on it. She's been to PetSmart twice cause it's a close exposure. Her class has been delayed a week due to snow but guess who is joining us in class - Frannie. Now how fun is that?

PS: I can groom Wasabi and Spice and 2 minutes later they look like the cat dragged them through the brush. Okay something dragged them. This will make showing a challenge.

Fiona's Getting Big

Nathan and Treasure was playing with Fiona tonight when I captured this photo. I *had* Fiona nicely groomed and thenNathan plays with her pushing her hair 5 ways to Sunday cause guess what, he doesn't groom. hahahaha

Next week - midweek, Fiona goes to the vet for her x-ray. Then we will know if we are on track for Feb 14th - the day of love.

Treasure has not had her bath as we felt it was more important for her to be with the babies. I am hoping for Sunday for hers.

Now you know my dawgs are not always looking their best. We do have a life - or so we attempt to.

If we have a 14th delivery, I will be giving them temporary names until their owners give them their real names cause it will just be fun to have a love theme and I need some fun.

Hiding Strategies

Digging for treasures. I know what's under there - a hacky sack or a treasured toy or...

Yes, they take them outside, bury them like the sqirrels all to dig them back up again.

Well, we are trashed. Off to bed rather early tonight. Our son has the night shift with Treasure and he will sleep all day - what a life.

I am glad we have him to help out so I can feel normal.

Spice and the Shoshi spent serious time treasure hunting today all in time for a huge storm coming or so they say.

Playing With Younger Set

With no boarders, it's a quiet house - seriously. One has to laugh but yes, there's not a peep in the house. The puppies are snoozing and so are the adults.

I have photos to do and I have no energy and dogs to walk. Suck it up and get to it, Darlah. Tired is a state of mind - right so why am I yawning?

I promise by Monday, I will have new photos up, videos and I will learn how to use the video on my camera. Think of the time I will save.

More tomorrow after baths for Risa, Shoshi and maybe the pups after rolling under the deck.
