Life Happens: Havanese Style

Well, the human mom still has the flu and she best get well soon as that human daddy is away with his friends from Thursday till late Sunday night. So any tips on chasing that crud away - send them to that human.

Well, the human daddy thought he would get a group photo of the crew seeing it's ever so warm but that human mom has yet to groom them.

There are times it's just not feasible so relax. Tomorrow is another day and another opportunity to brusha, brusha, brush. ROFL

The photo at top isn't a great photo and great photos just happen - rarely are they staged and not look like they are. This morning, the human dad took a photo of Abigail in action - not posing and although it can be perfected (he's learning the camera) it's more natural looking.

Today, the human mom is walking around in slippers and she sounds different - so different that Fiona starts barking as she is not sure who is coming and even made a grr sound under her breath. The human mom never walks around in slippers so she doesn't know that sound but even when she got up close to Fiona, she didn't look up to see it was the human mommy. It tells me that they rely on sound quite a bit. Be mindful of that if you get a reaction with something new. Now the human mommy will shuffle even more to condition her to a new sound.

Hope you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving. This human is back to the couch after some work. Yep - she's working today.
