Charlie in Air & Jasper Playing WE had a glorious amount of play today and I was able to catch some of it.
Check out Sunsational Moments on the Visitors & Boarders Photo page. The weather is good. The crew was in rare form running and playing like crazy.
Temps dropped with the 2 gals so I did extra early baths for those visitors going home tomorrow in case whelping gets in the way. This way I can just freshen up vs. spend a couple of hours on each dog. Usually I do it the morning of but we usually aren't whelping puppies either. This way it gives me time to just freshen them up vs. 2 hours each dog. It usually takes me so long as I brush as I am drying then line comb each dog everywhere making sure all knots are out. With 2 of thevisitors blowing coat, it is a huge job but I get then knot free daily. With baths its more work as you line comb them before and line comb them after drying vs. just grooming.
This ahead of schedule is not a usual but we have no idea how long it will take to whelp, if both gals will happen at the same time or one will go for 12 hours then the other begins. It happens.
The son is taking a nap and so is Nathan in case it's a long cycle and I may later on. We shall see.
But we have our visitors and the shifts all in place so everyone's needs are met. Today or tomorrow...who knows but time will tell.
While we are waiting, we will be doing games of retrieve, play and a new game - find the treat.
Till later...
