It's Still Mucky So....

Here is Tre after his bath. He is staying in till Momma comes.

Here is Kismet after her bath. 

Then there is Cali - all nicely groomed and she smooshed her face. Taking a photo was not possible.

I took a Mason Pearson to her face and had it shiny and smooth and well she is famous for the face smoosh much like Spice and her pups. Not related but maybe somewhere in that background they got that same gene.

Gerda is coming shortly to play with the pups and pickup her 3. They are off to holiday celebrations. 

I had on my new grooming shirt from Adriana (Lucy and PJ) and Juan. Got compliments from Anne and Russell. Thank you again!!

Anne and Russell - so thankful and for Dennis he is over the moon happy that someone thought of him. Truly!

Cooper is having a blast. 

Tre, Cali and Kismet departed and I will tell you they don't look freshly brushed. heh It was great to see Gerda and her sister. 

Eating lunch then off to do puppy baths and playing with the dogs. 

Jesse and Murphy dropped in. It's a fun house. May not get mom's blogs done other than just bathed photos.

I think you're right Darlah - in that there is a 'Smoosh Gene.' Laci always smooshes her face, and as a matter of fact it's her language for greeting people, to glad you're home, to I'm so happy! She also did it after I re-did her ponytail, so at the time thought it meant she didn't like it and decided it's time to do away w/ it. But, oh yes, she continues to smoosh! This smooshing extends to messing up the freshly made bed, to messing pillows on the couch. It's part of her endearing little personality! :-) And, her Daddy encourages her in this little past-time! LOL

I'll bet Gerda was so excited to see her babies and they her!

Yes, they were excited to see her but still giving us kisses. I guess they had a good time here.

December 18, 2015 | Registered CommenterDarlah

They definitely had a great time! It makes me so happy to see them sharing their kisses with you and Nathan. They were over the moon to see my Mum and Dad as well as my niece, nephew and their dog. All three settled in like they had never left Ottawa. We are now all snuggled together and I must say it feels great. Thanks again for taking such good care of them, and especially for the treats for both the dogs and I.
