Extra Wet

It was Really wet out there and I spent most of my time today combing out dogs and cleaning feet and undercarriages. So, here are some of the photos. I wish I had more.

Dogs are having a blast and Dallas really likes Stone. They seemed to have clicked.

It was a balmy weather feeling day but it's been raining. So dogs being dogs couldn't help themselves.

Oh and Ella is in heat. She's too young to breed but it means no mingling with the boys - of course. It's going to be fun when she is in the height of it. 

Me, I want to lay down but I have to get a crate ready for the puppy journey to vet experience. Wait till they see Charlie and Charlie sees them.

What lovely pictures. I especially like the doggie with the bow! Good luck at the Vet. I am taking Radar in the morning.

The pictures are fabulous!! Love seeing Dallas with the puppies. How did River and Stone do last night?

River and Stone was fine till 7am. It was the lack of crazy puppy play that I think they were missing.

Rusty had a wonderful time today and he smells wonderful. (by the way you may not have recognized him, he is white with short hair - one time we did not go to Darlah). Darlah you do a wonderful bath and grooming. It really is a Spa. I must tell all of you how much Rusty loves visiting his Talemaker Family. Rusty is a wonderful passenger in the car. He is very calm EXCEPT when we take him for a visit to Nathan and Darlah. He seems to know what we are saying when we tell him we are going for a visit to see Darlah and Nathan. He cries with excitement all the way there and when we arrive he bounces out of the car and straight to the door scratching at the door to be let in. He goes crazy when he sees Nathan at the door. This tells me what I already know but want everyone to know, that the love given by his Talemaker Family has a lasting effect on our pets. How lucky I am to be part of the Talemaker Family. The dogs are loved and each one of them is loving and affectionate and gentle. Thank you Darlah and Nathan.

Ronnie: He looks beautiful no matter the cut and good news with the short hair do his hair is healthy. Sometimes it is good to start anew. His ears should be longer and tail left alone but you may enjoy the shorter look as you get used to it. You really couldn't make Rusty unattractive, imho. Thank you for the comments - truly!

Michelle: Dallas REALLY REALLY loves the pups.

December 23, 2015 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Thank you Darlah. You are right about hair growing back and if you had thought it was necessary to cut his hair I would not have thought about it but it was a surprise. At least they did not cut his tail and his hair is already starting to grow. He is so beautiful and he looked more like himself after his spa treatment.

Ronnie: It's a good thing you told us about Rusty, I wouldn't have recognized him but I agree with Darlah, he is gorgeous any way!! I do like his short cut.

As well, I agree 100% with what Ronnie says about Talemaker, they are the best! I never give it a thought when I leave my dogs(s) with them, I can't say that with anyone else. The only other people who have looked after my dogs are my parents, when they were here. That tells you how much I trust Darlah, Nathan and Dennis and know how very well they look after our babies.
