Rain and Chilling

It rained, it got muggy. The dogs went out in the rain and we watched tv and I groomed. Okay, Nathan watched tv. I watched partially. But I got everyone done.

This is Fiona up on high watching tv with her Daddy.

Bonham and Tuffie was over for a visit for a few hours.

They got wet, they got dry, they got wet and then dry again. It was one of THOSE days. When it was raining lightly they all went out in it. When it rained a bit harder they sat under the gazebo and said I don't think so. I laughed.

Panda had a blast with Bonham.

Phantom keeps looking at Nathan as Nathan does the breeding as if to say - okay, I am here - where's the girl?

Each time Tuffie is here she climbs all through the weeds and well we will pretend they are plants as weeds really are plants that are unwanted. hahaha

Logan was scoping out all this wet as if to say is it still raining?

Mom and daughter was enjoying each others company. Even princess' can have fun.

Spice could care less if it is pouring rain. Does that surprise you?

This was Truffie with his Daddy Phantom before my brushing marathon. Truffie is a water dog. He goes out and sniffs, hangs out and gets soaked to the skin. I had to brush him a couple of times today.

Leti is such a silly dog. She was standing watching a rabbit and then the race was on. One wonders why that rabbit comes back. Maybe he/she likes the chase too?

This was before Logan got brushed. Guess swimming is good for his coat when its a salt water pool.

This was Panda after the Bonham attack.

Tuffie had a blast too. Too bad it was too rainy to swim. Oh well....

Life is good even when it does rain. Oh well grooming occurred and weed pulling did not. Another day of procrastination. It happens.

Fiona is truly a beautiful lady. There is something about her that just makes her stand out . Love the pic of Phantom.....he's at your place to get the job done....clearly from his perspective.

I noticed the top knot on Fiona. Sometimes you do it that way on Coop. it is kind of sideways. Can you show me how to do this? I've tried but it takes me forever to get it done. There's got to be an easier way to do it.....I quite like that look!

I think I may have one of the few Havanese that does not like getting up high on the sofa. Hmmm, but that seems to fit with my Ripley's more timid personality. He likes to be curled up at my feet or in my lap at the highest.

Nah many don't get up on high. Some do. Its an individual thing. You will never catch Shoshi up high. Risa also prefers the couch not the back of it. We do have stairs to ours.

Anne: Nothing fancy about that knot. I can show you.

Maybe tomorrow when we pick up Coop? I really like that look on him when you do it but it takes me a good 5 minutes to get it right and even then it's not like yours (sigh)
