Changes

We have Cooper coming shortly as there is a weather system coming in supposedly ice storm. Oh boy.

I have a serious head cold but meds help so the blogs will be short. The last of my dogs were washed today this way at least mine won't need baths till starting the 2nd. Dogs don't look pretty as it is wet out there so today we have a lot of poses not running fun ones. Even the dogs don't want to run in the melt though they try at times. Can you blame them?

Although I am going to roll all but Abigail's into this blog, I will occasionally put up something on the respective blogs if its extra special or I receive something from someone. As in today Shannon send some videos so I will post them in the Spice blog.

Then 3-4 weeks before pups they will have their own blog. But with the holiday coming it will help me reduce my posts and give me more time with the dogs and Nathan too. :-)

The dogs are now taking a nap with Nathan. I may take one after dinner time so I can get better. But otherwise I will keep doing as I usually do. :-)

Rolling all the blogs into one is a good idea. I really enjoy what ever you post,
pictures or stories. I am addicted.

I'll second Kathy. I too am addicted and however you decide to do the blogs, I will follow and enjoy.

The blogs are part of our daily rituals too, first thing in the morning before I read the news on line...so much better than news :-). Hope your head cold goes away soon.

Who's in the 2nd & 3rd photos? I love the snow pictures. Laci loves the snow even more so than last year. Gosh, she's been running around so fast that she skids on her chin, but she seems to gather more icy snow in her pads than last year. She not only lifts up her paws one by one but will walk to the door slowly and w/ her head hanging. It's painful. I'm wondering if within a few tries of boots it will click in that they help! :-)

Merging the blogs is a great idea, though, I have trouble identifying all the dogs in this blog. But i love to see every photo, and reading every update!!

Brewer and Spice - Spice's hair is starting to come back fuller after the pups.

Deb: Good luck on the boots. <smile>

I asked b/c I thought it was someone else. I do like the tad shorter & neater look, but that's just me.

Haven't bought the boots yet. Just don't like how the icy snow causes pain. Must be much like ice-cream head! LOL But not so funny . . .

Brewer is Spice's son. He was the largest in her first litter. His hair is growing out. He comes here daily (except during he xmas season and weekends) so I have been able to get his hair to grow out. His dad no longer has to groom him and I think he's enjoying that aspect. Brewer has an amazing personality but I find that true with all the Spice pups. They tend to have that silly fun thing going on.
