The Attack

Get a warm day, add a Nathan and you get an attack of the dogs. 

What can I say. Wish the weather was lasting and so do the dogs.

Short Blog Today

Back to a puppy cut for Alvin. He has no ponytail at request of his mom but now he should be easier to care for especially with swimming. 

Trouble also had her bath today for class. She's on a 1 week bath schedule as she likes to get too dirty. This is due to wanting a show coat on her. Normal is 2 to 3 weeks and sometimes a month depending on what you do between.

As we have class and I am seriously juggling, blogs across the board will be short.

Bath Day

Thought Nathan took some photos of Havoc but he didn't. He was black and I mean muddy black. I washed the pup with a product called 'Dirty Dog' and boy he needed it. 

Here is the gallery.

Dogs have been having fun but they always manage to. Think the last 2 weeks is playing catch up on me. I am tired. I told Nathan for Mother's Day let me sleep and I want a Dairy Queen ice cream. It's been over a year since I had one. What a funny request - I know. Maybe a nap?

Hope the rest of you have a relaxing day planned. We all need our rest.

Overcast Day: Plus Dance Videos

Havoc and Tobias dropped in over night and Moms are able to celebrate Mother's day among other errands. I hope they have a blast as the duo is having one here. 

Reggie departed. His Mom and Dad was able to move into their new place and Reggie gets to see his new surroundings. Hooray and then they no longer have to deal with house staging and getting out of their place to sell their house. I hope it sells quickly for them. I also hope he adjusts well to the new place.

Here is the gallery.

Doesn't matter that it is overcast or not. The dogs actually enjoy this weather the best. No rain but warm seems to be a great exercise motivator. Me, I looked at my garden and went into a state of panic. So much to do. How does one do it with all the rest. Glad the daughter is here. Maybe I will get some help.

I keep getting asked what I want to do for Mother's day. I suppose no work? hahahha Good food?? Maybe a movie - how decadent. We shall see.

Anyone going to Woofstock this year? We are going. It's the last weekend of the month and we will probably go on the Saturday. Hope to see you there too!

Bonus: Dance videos of Coco and Doozie Dancing.

Sun and Not

Logan loves the pup and especially the Trouble. Panda still connects with her and maybe they like her so much as she can be a tad opinionated. hahahaha

It's a tad quiet around here. I have a dog to groom/bathe/cut between feedings and after Nathan gets up from napping with the dogs. I swear I am not sure who enjoys this time more the dogs or Nathan. But today he is sick. He needs the nap. With our schedule (this will slow down) it often happens. 

Here's the gallery.

Daisy and Charlie is now at home. It's quiter except for moms when people come to the door or Kat due to Inula. I surely hope Inula has a short heat. 

I look at the garden and go oh my gad so much work. No time till July? Daughter asked what I want to do for Mother's Day. Have an easier day? Not cook, clean or do pups non stop? Sit outside if the weather is good and chill? Eat something good? I have to make her day good too somehow, someway as she deserves it. 

What are you hoping for - moms?? Maybe you will get my creative juices flowing cause right about now, it's a dull haze.

Mighty Rainy

It's been raining and I have been brushing and combing. I sort of give up as the dogs come in looking like wet rags. It reminds me of me last night. I hadn't been able to get a shower in all day and last night I tooik one and went to bed with wet hair. My hair was interesting in the morning but I may do it again tonight. I felt like a wet dog but it surely cooled me off. hahaha

We did a lot of indoor play today. Fetching was one of the games and I found out Stone likes to win. 

Here's the small gallery.

Also found out (well I knew) that Logan was not pleased with wet legs as it means brushing out. He wasn't the only one.

Plus I am still looking for baby comforters so if you see any for sale, please send the link my way.

I am also trying to find someone that can make me a contact ramp (agility) just a mini tiny one for the pups. Trouble wasn't crazy about the one at class so I want a mini one to expose the pups to it. I also want to do a wobble board. Let me know if you see any.

We are surviving. Moms bark each time someone comes. (poor Dennis as he sleeps during the day). We are doing a lot of no barks. Plus Inula being in heat throws a curve in everything. So I have her isolated with just gals. Heats are not fun. 2 more weeks and counting.

Oh and Mother's Day next week. When did that happen so fast. yikes. Remember doggie moms - you are moms too!

Grand Day

Charlie LOVES, LOVES, LOVES our grand daughter Danielle. It's a special relationship and she asked if she could sleep with Charlie tonight. How could we say no. So he will be downstairs sleeping with Dani and I get Adele back for a night. :-) Here's today's gallery.

Soon they will be doing tv time/chill time. Some watch, some just snuggle.

Dogs had a grand day but I have pups to feed and a full bath/haircut to do so got to get moving and that means shorter bogs. Sorry.

The Nose Knows It

Crew is having a total blast. Here is today's gallery. They are chillin with Nathan and Dennis while I am blogging inbetween puppy feeding and laundry. It's been a day. We have some fun relationships going on. Maggie I brushed and 2 minutes after it she did a face dive playing. I got everyone brushed out but it took me till 6pm. hahaha Trouble - well she was Trouble. 

No Update Day

We are enjoying visitors but I am blogged out. I hope you understand. Everyone is truly having a blast. Trust me when I tell you. Nathan is actually taking a nap in the tv room with them. I wish I had that. hahaha

But instead I thought I would place up a photo of the 2 Beetles.

It was titled, brotherhood. Seems they are really getting along though George wants to play, play play and well Ringo sometimes wants to rest.

Sunny Day

Alvin and StoneWe managed to get a tad bit more sleep last night so I feel much better. I realized I had posted yesterday's blog but forgot to publish it. It's there now. I guess I was extra tired. I have to blame something. I am still tired but wow Spice being pain free and some sleep sure makes you feel differently. Here is today's gallery.

Dogs really enjoyed the warm weather and hung out a lot with Nathan. Wish I had but the moments with the pups are precious. I did comb everyone out. Tonight I have to fit in doing Trouble as she has class and boy does she need it. She gets to see Havoc. Jon, Tracy and Sarah are going to watch the dogs and Dennis the pups so I can join Nathan with the class.

So Much Fun

It's good to know you can still have fun despite being tired. Nathan had more sleep than me but he is trashed. The phone ran and it was our son. He kept answering with the remote.

Think when Dennis gets up tonight, we are heading to bed between 9 and 930. Tomorrow wake up refreshed and ready to go. heh

Dolly came to play today and I tell you she brings a whole lot of fun. It's nice!

Here's today's gallery. 

Chasing That Gal

We had mud, mud and more mud this morning and finally it stopped raining and dried out. Now it looks like rain again. That's okay. We still got some running games in as you can see in this photo. Havoc really connected with his momma Panda and his sister Trouble. They had fun, fun, fun. Got muddy. Got rinsed more than you want to know. Wasn't crazy about that aspect but still.... Tonight Toboas and Havoc will go home. Daisy dropped in. Here's today's gallery. 

Special thanks goes to Sherry Stein for dropping in and bringing us some food. So amazing and I mean that. I have free baths slated for Murphy as my thank you. It's really helps more than you know. Unexpected and so appreciated!

This is going to be short as I have another feeding to do and brushout and combouts of those departing.

Puppy Heaven

Got some pups visiting and the adults and pups are having a total fun fest! See the gallery. Everyone is doing well. Sorry for a short blog but we will do bewtter when we totally play recovery.

Oh my Gad

Inula is in heat. For 3 weeks Inula has to be with just the gals. Fun. Dogs had a blast inside and out. We now have Havoc and Tobias visiting. It's busy but fun. Cooper has departed but had fun before he left.

Dinner is almost done but going to hate cleanup. haha

Here's the gallery.

Really I can't imagine having pups today. Crossing fingers.

Barney is Here

Check out Leti's blog. Barney came for a visit and oh my is he fun!

Getting Warm

Here's a short gallery. We have been out a number of times. Everyone has been combed out. Mickey bathed and trimmed. Mickey departs - sigh. He will be missed. Tonight a Leti pup comes to visit and oh boy will that do Leti's heart good. 

Nathan was out running errands and took Ella up to see Jazzy. I heard Ella ran Jazzy up and down the aisles. I am sorry I missed it.

I am tired - what's new. We have a family gathering the next 2 nights too. 

Dogs are really having a blast but it is time to take the pool cover off. Now to convince Nathan that we can do it now and not turn on the heat. hahahahaha

He says with pups who will be able to swim? Maybe I will visit Christine. hahahaha

Mail Issues

Folks, some of you are not aware but we had our domain expire and Dennis (our son) forgot to renew it. So, our mails were bouncing. If you did not get a response from us, resend the mail PLEASE. It is working now.

I am posting this as someone just sent me mail saying she hadn't heard from us. arrgh

Playtime Fun

I finally got everyone brushed and combed. It took me a bit as I did it between other things. So, some of these photos is before and some after. 

Dogs are enjoying the cooler but dryer weather. They are still doing a deck behind us so we deal with dust and noise but the dogs have adjusted. 

If I had to put a slogan on today, I would have to say, Dawgs Just Want to Have Fun!

Fun Indoors

Indoors can be fun too. Check out this gallery. As you will see Cooper, Pepper, Reggie and Scruffy was having a blast. Sometimes Stone. 

They played their hearts out but the blog is short as I am still needing to play recovery. I need to eat and sleep. Don't always have time for those. 

Our oldest daughter slept with the dogs while we were whelping. It was nice to have the help. Otherwise they would be downstairs with Dennis watching tv even though it was 3am or he would have crawled into bed with them. Dennis is on night duty tonight. Nathan and I play catchup with the sleep and the dog snuggles.

Parler en Français

Oh Coops Nathan has to start talking to you in French. Will you listen?

Here's today's gallery.

Someone is putting in a deck behind us so all we hear is tool noise. Was hoping to be out there with Jeannie for a bit. Maybe after Logan and Panda goes home the trades people will quit. Wait till Lynda sees Panda with Trouble.
