Very Small Update

Each time the dogs go out they get DRENCHED and I mean DRENCHED. Needless to say I didn't take photos as they all looked like wet rats except Teddy who stayed clean after his bath and trim. 

You can sort of see how wet they got through the gate. Lots of drying today - too much.

Now to dry Logan and Panda as they are departing shortly. I dream of roof over my back yard. Does anyone else have strange dreams like that?

I can't believe that is Teddy. Rusty's sibling? He was so small. is he? What is the secret to melting the snowballs attached to the dogs. I try using my hairdryer but it doesn't really work well. Rusty is very patient with me.

Ronnie, not sure if I am doing it right. My method is I put a warm damp towel on the snowballs one at a time and gently squash it out. I keep the towel warm by dipping in the warmed water and am real careful not to pull the ball or overheat the towel. If the snowballs are going soft or loose I use a comb to get the bits off. I have filled the laundry tub with Luke warm water up to an inch or so and stood my dog in it but I worry that it might be a shock to cold feet.

Yes, that is Rusty's brother and he was never small. He was longer in body like Risa. Magic is also longer in body. He is not oversized. Tiny is the tallest of the crew. Still, he is not oversized. We knew Tiny would be taller as he was leggy.

Thanks Darlah and Su. I always thought of Teddy as the baby but I guess I was wrong. But I do remember he was gentle. Or do I have that wrong too? I am getting old you know.

He is a very gentle boy. You are correct, Ronnie.
