What a Day

A huge shout out to Coco, Doozie, Carol and Malcolm for all that they do with the dogs. The dogs both took their CGN (citizen good neighbour) test today and passed. This is them at home quite pleased with themselves and they should be! This pair does an amazing job with dancing too! Carol is truly a special lady doing what she does with them.

I have been grooming and grooming and grooming the last couple of days for other people but I also managed to get Shoshi, Spice, Roxie and Jeannie done as well. But to say I am tired is an understatement and you will have to read on Abigail's blog why I am extra tired today. I will be updating that blog shortly.

Cooper and Truffie connected this visit. Truffie (with no gals in heat) has slowly got back to his playful usual self. I hate what heats do to gals and to the boys. But I do love the end result - the pups.

My day started today with a brush out and comb-out of Cooper. He's such a good boy. I love when he visits.

Gracie and Cha Cha arrived at the same time. Gracie is not one of our dogs but she connected with Cha Cha in a big way but she is also playing with everyone else. As you can see due to the rain the paws are getting muddy and I decided to wash them once not many times a day. hahahaha

We are heading to Woofstock tomorrow. Dennis is here with the dawgs with Jonathan. We are going early and coming back early. It's always best that way as you avoid the crowds.

Simba dropped in today and Shelton was smitten by him giving him kisses and Simba was giving kises back. Oh my... be still my heart!

Steven also dropped by and brought us a present for the dogs. Wait till you see it on the Abigail blog. The pups LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. Thank you. What a cute and fun idea that was.

Well that's all I can muster today. I have a magazine to get out as it seems I am the one that knows how to do all that. Dennis is playing with the dogs sliding on the floor and the dogs are running after him. It's a riot. It's raining but it best not tomorrow. Just know we still manage to have fun no matter what the weather is!

Congratulations to Coco and Doozie, and of course Carol and Malcom! Great job! Great picture and they look so proud of themselves, as they should be!

Wow, such talented Havanese. The dancing & talented Coco & Doozie deserve a round of applause.

Cooper is such a handsome fellow. Nice to see he plays so well with the
little ones.

Kathy: Cooper thought Fiona's bunch were martians much like Scruffy did at first with Spice's crew. I thought I may have to do a one on one with Cooper but I didn't. Maybe being exposed to Fiona's and then having the opportunity of being exposed again was the key.

I can't wait to try Scruffy again with this crew.
