Cold Tuesday

Slowly recovering. I took photos today and got everyone groomed though it doesn't look like it in the photo gallery. That's okay as I know it is done. Charlie pictured above was playing here for the day. They had a terrible flood in their house and Charlie is not fond of workers in his home. So he came to play and we loved it! He did too as he played non stop and Rocky was pleased he was here too! Grey was as well. Oh okay, they all were. :-) It is cold enough that no one is getting snowballs or wet and mucky. Thank you to whomever I need to thank!

Dogs are truly having fun today. 

I am looking forward to heats going away. Pups are coming soon. Xrays on December 7th. I am waiting till after the anniversary (December 2nd) to get things ready in here and enjoy the space for a bit more. It's going to be a crazy winter but a fun one and I suppose a busy one especially during the Christmas Break. We still have no clue where we are eating. I was hoping Akasaka was still open but we haven't driven by to see if it was a closing or a remodel. argh I should look at an alternative but as much as Nathan would like Ruth Chris, it is simply way too expensive. Sorry dear...

I truly believe th edogs like when it is cool but dry as they are simply playing like crazy. They will sleep tonight. Maybe we will get to sleep till 7am. LOL

Hope everyone is surviving the holiday shopping craziness and life is treating you well. Give hugs to yoyr little ones from us.

The snow is starting to fly though it's trily not sticking yet and there is really not that much. But I say better than rain. The dogs love it too. 

Although Inula thinks she is a havanese she really has excitement come to her life when Ash and Grey arrive. It is as if she says - ah bigger dogs - finally. 

Scruffy and Pepper, Levon and Trigger are arriving tomorrow. Hopray for that!

Murphy was missing her Saffron so much that I am now taking her in with the gals in heat and she is delighted. No matter what goes on, Saffron and Murphy are ever so tight - sisters and all. Their relationship is truly special.

Akasaka’s website says permanently closed, it’s been there for so long. A little snow is always nice, it keeps the paws clean. We were supposed to get up to 40cm, only got 5, wet snow though, quite mild and it’s raining now. No need to shovel but a couple of snowballs. Crazy winter so far.

Yes, closed but Yelp says permanently - their phone when calling said closed for renovations. Will be sad if it ends up permanent.

Yes, crazy winter - not raining here.

That’s so sweet that Murphy missed Saffron. I am sure it was confusing for her wondering why she couldn’t see her. So nice that they are together.

It is really wonderful to hear about the relationship between Murphy and Saffron. So special. We went to global tonight. Last Tuesday of the month is seniors and you get 15% discount. Has to be some benefit to being a senior. Got Rust a winter coat. He hates it and probably won't wear it. The other one we had he really hated and would run away even though he wanted to go out. Poor thing it was torture for him. At leat we didn't get booties I think he would run away from home.

Ronnie: None of our dogs use a coat. If they lift their paws we bring them in. I find a coat is good for the snowballs or extreme cold.

Great going on the discount!

November 28, 2018 | Registered CommenterDarlah

I do agree Darlah. Just get carried away sometimes.

November 28, 2018 | Unregistered CommenterRonnie

Oh Ronnie I think coats are way cute.
