Here is today's gallery. This is Raven. She looks like her momma. But she looks like a sheepdog of sorts? Why? Stormy has this terrible habit of grabbing everyone's rubber bands and sometimes she gets their hair as well. That won't do so after she did this to Cinnamon, this is a saving the hair moment till Stormy gets that this is not what you do. Stormy suits her name and early on I could tell she was going to be a mischievous soul about the time she started to walk. She didn't live up to her name. She was her name. 

You see if you say to Stormy, no, she smiles and she just can't contain herself - seriously. So, I say no firmly and use distraction. It works if the distraction is good enough. Yes, she knows she is not supposed to do it as she waits till she thinks you are not looking and no hair band is safe. The only one she won't do it to is Risa or Roxie. She tries and they roar at her and she says that's not fun or easy and sighs this heavy sigh and goes on to the next but try she will. 

We have arrived at a point that all she has to see is that I am giving her that look and she prances off to do something else.  Sometimes creativity is a 'good' thing with a Stormy one. Raven and Stormy are 2 complete opposites. But who do you think has the upper hand in the relationship? Who says when enough is enough and stops the play and the play is always on her terms. Raven... 

I just love pups and they are all so unique.

Murphy last night was in heaven. The heat was too much for the dogs. Lesson learned. Even if we have heat for 2 days the air goes on. Last night I had a fan going in front of an open window and the dogs lined up soaking up the blowing air - okay they were hogging it. Today they are loving the cool weather outdoors. The house is finally cooling off. 

Interesting enough most of the visitors went home today so quieter tonight. We also have Adele and River visiting us as the daughter is in Ottawa bringing us back the very best egg rolls that exist. You can even order them online. heh

Got to convince Dennis to build the VegTrug and then buy soil and compost. I doubt I will get plants this weekend or soil. Hey, I didn't even know it was May 24 weekend.

Everyone got a homemade dried chicken strip and you would have thought they were given the very best treat ever. You do not need a dehydrater though I have one. You just need an oven on low, thin strips and patience. The dogs appreciate these little things and when you see how much they enjoy, well you smile. Okay, I am fessing up. They each got 2 strips. 

Have a great weekend....
