Nails and More

Today Nathan got in his - who needs their nails done mode. Here he is checking Chase. He likes to do them here and there vs. just at bath time. This way if nail cutting bothers them they won't relate it to the bath. It's a smart way of doing it.

We had snow today and mush and snow. Dogs played inside more than outside as it was just too mucky out there but some persisted. 

Here is today's gallery.

Simon, the Pomeranian came in afraid. He had never been here. Today you will see in the gallery he is out with the crew without issue and inside with everyone. What a far way he has come since he arrived and its only been a couple of days. 2 nights ago he chose to sleep in a crate in Dennis room and last night he was in Dennis bed. His siblings also are quite comfie but he was the most nervous on arrival. It makes me feel good when they find their comfort level.

Today Skylar arrived (Rowan's pup) and she thought the pups were gremlins especially when they chased her. You will see her first exposure on video. Her second exposure to the pups she stopped running and just allowed sniffing. Didn't take video but already progress. Many dogs will do the flee - oh my gad they are after me when you have 8 little things chasing you. By the time she goes home perhaps she will be running with them. Conditioning works. 

Magic dropped in for a bath and trim. Holly I give up on - well not really but she is Ms. Flirt with the boys. I brush her out in the morning and by the afternoon she looks a disheveled mess. At least I know she is knot free. Stone is the same. Ms. Dallas also departed. She is already missed. 

The rest are doing really well. Everyone gets along with each other. They play. They eat, they snuggle - especially with us at bed and at tv time.

Who is the Mom and I assume daughter duo ? Great shot of the two.

Magic looks beautiful. It must be hard to keep her very heavy coat clean in this
wet weather.
