Too Wet For Outside Runs

It's way too wet outside so we go out, hang out and come back in. If we deign to jump on the pool cover we get mighty wet and its interesting trying to keep them knot free.

We have been doing a lot of playing inside. Biggie joined us and he is having fun.

Tomorrow Zoe comes for a bath and a quick visit so Dusty (and us) will be excited! So will the Treasure.

Here are a few photos from today. One includes Phantom who is heading out on a plane tomorrow at 6am for a gal connection. He will be out there for a couple of weeks then come back here so Paula can pick him up and head home with him. He is a real jet setter!

On the Road AgainBiggie Head ShotPanda Before Grooming Waiting to PounceKona Head ShotJeannieDusty Playing TugAbigail PosingBiggie Loves to Play With JeannieThe dogs despite brushes still look rather 'rugged' looking. It's a hopeless venture so we just enjoy them natural and make sure they are knot free.

Let's see who was playing with whom? Biggie and Jeannie and Roxie and Dusty. Roxie and Panda and Logan. Kona and Roxie and sometimes Jeannie. Abigail played with all especially tug with Biggie and Jeannie and Dusty. She teaches still as if they are all pups. :-)

Wasabi crawled under the deck and well she aint pretty. Kona got so drenched walking on the pool cover that I had to blow dry him and he hasn't walked anywhere except the paths since (sigh). We have a lot of snow left but its wet stuff - the type that gets you soaked. My feet have been soaked with boots on. This too shall pass.

I hope for a dryer day tomorrow - if not we will run and play like crazy inside and go out and walk around despite the weather.

We play so many fun games inside but its hard to play and get them motivated and click a camera at the same time. To me, the play is the most important but I do try.

Kathy: Yes, nice photo of the Kona... Managed to get some this morning when I was fixing morning food and he didn't even try to get up. 6am is too early for this crew. So I am feeding them in a few minutes. Nathan should be at the airport now.

Gerda: Abigail is such a ham for the camera always. I swear she is saying not again. Phantom and his dollies (yes multiple toys) will soon be on a plane. He ADORES his toys more than food. hahahaha I rather love the Phantom. I bet you Tre has a combo of the two of them - nice!
