Morning Fun

Just sharing a photo of Charlie that we received this morning. Isn't he rather handsome! As they live so far away we don't get to see him unless we go to a show in Quebec. Hoping to do so this year. 

We decided not to go to the show today. Its rather silly. The place is all the Westminster pros and that's who is getting the look and they aren't even hiding it. I watched all the rings and they didn't pay attention to anyone that wasn't a pro. We got what was to be had in that atmosphere so we are staying warm, getting Zack and Coco ready to go home. Last day with Kona and Socks - they depart tomorrow. 

Spice and Jeannie's tummies are already getting large. More about that on their blogs with maybe a tummy shot. I have to shave their tummies but in this weather...

We have a bit of an issue with frozen pipes - now leaking pipes so we are getting that rectified. 

I leave you with a taste of the fun they are having seeing it is warmer but tonight a deep freeze again. Levon is chasing Socks and Clarity is saying what are YOU doing? Levon is having the time of his life - Trigger too but Levon is usually less adventurous than Trigger but not this trip. He's like a kid in a candy store when it comes to play. He plays and plays and plays and then naps then plays again.

Charlie has a beautiful face. Probably best that you didn't go to the show. Nice to stay home and enjoy the rather warm weather before the deep freeze tonight...same here. But March is around the corner and I just know that milder weather is on the way....

It is nice to hear that you have somewhat of a down day. Not that I ever hear that you have nothing to do. Enjoy the day and the good weather. It certain looks like the dogs are enjoying themselves.

Anne: My birthday is March 24th and I know it still snows on my birthday and Dennis is April 17th and he reminds me the last 3 years it has snowed on his. I figure we have 2 more months. Lucky us.

I've actually been thinking about the Spice and Jeannie litters due around your birthday and I've been wondering if they will be snow or spring puppies......time will tell I guess but I hope I'm right about the mild weather coming.....fingers crossed!

Charlie is a beautiful boy. I remember in 2012 I was gardening at the end of March because the temp was 21C. So, you never know!

April 17th is Laci's 3rd Coming Home Anniversary. It was a lovely warm sunny day! I recall driving home w/ the windows open. It was the best spring for many reasons. :-) Maybe we'll have another one just as nice this year. We're due after a hard winter.

Will be fun watching these next two litters so I hope they we great spring weather for them and you.

Angela, 3 years ago you were gardening but it was too early says I the Master Gardener. hahahaha Clean-up - yes, planting no. We do have the odd warm days but its always a hit and miss if the pool can open on the 3rd or 4th week in April. But as usual people get a nice day and plant and then have to cover. I suspect this year people will be planting way too early as they will be hopeful. I am too but to be safe my tropicals don't come out till May. This year some of them bit the dust. (sigh)

Look at it this way by the time we can take pups outside it should be warm. We are going to have swimming pups this year.

We can hope. Love to have an early spring. We need it!
