Very Messy Times

Shannon sent this photo and I had to share. They have such a ruff life! I had to laugh!

It's a mighty messy day. I mean when you look at the gallery you will say doesn't she ever groom? 

They have been wet, muddy and everything inbetween and so have the floors. Even Cooper ran through the center of the pool in enthusiasm. Did I catch it? Nah. Also had Dallas do the same after her bath so she had 2 of them. Got to laugh. 

They did play in the house as if it was outside. 

Dolly also came for the day and well she didn't get dirty. Go figure!

Can you snow or stop raining please?

Oh well, Dallas is home and clean.

Stunning photos of Spicy and equally wonderful photos of Risa, especially the one of her sticking her tongue out....what a lady! Shannon, your doggies sure live the life! Great day for the dogs to have fun, despite the messiness....Coop looks good . His human parents are trying very hard to find him a new home.....and we appreciate that he can stay with you guys while we do so. Coop has high standards so it won't be easy :-)))

I love the pics of Inula and being able to see her beautiful eyes. I hope Risa is feeling well. Shannon, beautiful dogs and so spoiled, just like mine ;-)

Loved the gallery, as always. Levon and Trigger " live the life", so cute! Inulas' pictures are hilarious. Freshly groomed, she is a beautiful young lady, after play, she looks like a "damsel in distress", a wild beauty. Cooper is such a dandy gentleman, always. So glad to see Risa enjoying the outdoors with the others.

What a great gallery Darlah. And Shannon's 2 are adorable. I loved the pic with Risa sticking out her tongue. I am glad she is eating better. Cooper is really handsome. How old is he?

Ronnie, Cooper will be 5 in May. I can't believe it actually, time sure goes by fast!

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterAnne and Cooper

Darlah, who is the beauty in photos 44 to 47, beautiful coat and colours!

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterAnne and Cooper

Silly me, I think it's Inula?

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterAnne and Cooper

I think it is Inula Anne. Doesn't she look lovely?

She is beautiful, just never seen her with a top knot, that's what got me confused for a short moment.

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterAnne and Cooper

Yes, Inula. Nathan takes care of her coat. Not the best job but he's learning.

Just wanted to clarify what I said about finding Coop a new home... The three of us sold our house in Huntsville and will be moving to Burlington. Enough country living! Russell and I have been house hunting for the past few weeks to try to find the perfect home for all three of us.

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterAnne and Cooper

Hi Anne, welcome to the best city in Canada :). Whereabout in Burlington?

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterCarmen

Carmen, that's the million dollar question...not a lot of inventory at the moment but we're hoping south of the QEW, perhaps Aldershot. We lived in Burlington from 1984 to 1994 so we know it well but it has changed. When we move, we should touch base, would love to meet you and perhaps your puppy? Not sure if you have one or will be getting one?

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterAnne and Cooper

We wish you good luck finding what you want. We live Upper Middle and Guelph Line and we love our neighborhood. It will be our pleasure to meet you. We are waiting for a puppy very soon.

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterCarmen & Max

Anne, Russell and Coops are good people. You will enjoy the company.

April 8, 2016 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Spice, to me is the old time beauty of the Havanese - a classic.

April 8, 2016 | Registered CommenterDarlah

I can "feel" beyond the words and pictures, and I know they are wonderful people.

April 8, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterCarmen & Max

Loved this gallery. The difference between pic 47 & 57 of Inula made me laugh out loud. She is beautiful. I think that she loves the relaxed casual look of # 57.

Risa's close up # 168 is special.
