Sunny Daze

I titled this appropriate as we finally had a sunny day and the dawgs wanted to be out as much as possible. I guess they are like humans and like to take advantage of the nice weather. Me too.

So as soon as the cushions came out the smiles arrived and so did the laying out at the pool, jumping through my day lilies and much more.

I think Coco was exceedingly delighted when I took out the chair pads as that meant she could lounge outside under the popups and well enjoy life! No rain - hooray!

There were no shortage of fun including Oreo finding it more fun to jump through the day lilies vs. around them. He was delighted with himself. At first I thought it was a need not to go around but then he was jumping through them as if this is a game and it was for him - over and over again. I laughed and laughed.

I truly believe the dogs had an ah ha moment as they realized they had a full day without rain coming down. I too think they were growing weary of this thing that someone said was summer but surely was acting like spring.

Daisy and Roxie were hanging out. Roxie was waiting for Daddy to swim. Maybe tomorrow its Daddy's turn? We shall see with the weather.

Daisy rather enjoyed watching me swim. No dogs went swimming today. They waited till I climbed on the chairs and then they crowded me in as they so enjoy!

Doozie thinks the summer sun was overdue and only wanted to come in when there was food to be fed.

Oreo decided climbing up on the chairs up on the deck next to Dennis was the absolute best. He just LOVES, LOVES, LOVES Dennis and Jonathan.

Darcy tried the jump through the day lilies thing that Oreo was doing and decided it wasn't for her. heh

It was a great time - weather, fun and well chillin'. Yes, even the dogs love to chill and lounge at the pool too. Go figure and its never more obvious after the amount of rain we have had. Let's hope the sun stays and the weather people are wrong.

Today after grooming everyone got a dehydrated chicken strip. Yum!

Coco is a beauty and does look happy to be out in the sun. Don't blame him. All the dogs are happy when they visit you!

Coco is a gal and her partner in crime Doozie is also a gal. They are the duo that does all the dancing!

Yes, Carol gave us a list of commands that they know. It is rather extensive. :-)
