Hanging Out Without Daddy

The crew is really having a great time but missing dad. He's away on business today and won't get home for a bit. He's going to be glad to get back home. He's missed so much but although it was cold, we were in and out the back tons of times. It was fun. Mommy goes out with us and Abigail now barks to go out.

Sebastian has been playing who has the toy THIS time with Abigail. It's a real riot. I can see Sebastian going, oh no, not another female that steals my toys - argh.

That toy in the photo is Sebastian's and somehow Miss Abigail ended up with it, That's okay though as later in the day, Sebastian took it back and I swear he had a Cheshire grin. It's mine - all mine. Abigail best enjoy it as Sebastian leaves us tomorrow night. (sigh) But that's okay as he has a play date with Sassy Saturday and we are dying to find out how THAT works out.

As you can see, don't get these two wrong. They have been playing non stop and just a few minutes ago, Sebastian had a toy he took from Abigail away and she was playing the 'speak to the paw' stance until the camera came out. Speak to the paw is back to you mister. It actually works when your dog is doing something like nibbling and he won't listen. Putting your back to them and ignoring them gets them to understand that you didn't like it.

I think Abigail likes sticks and those sticks are attached to - well they ARE plants and trees and....and I think Sebastian taught her that. tsk tsk. I remember this crew trying to annihilate the coveted Japanese maple we own. Oh well, we had a lesson in 'no' and they kind of listened. I have to learn not to laugh when they are doing funny things even when it is truly funny. Control - thyself - lesson 101.

Well more tales tomorrow and watch for a fluff job on Sebastian and cute photos to follow with all that beauty time results. We are off to bed now....

Abigail is just so tootin' cute. She looks a bit like my Posh. Is she classified as a gold brindle?
