Messy is the Name

As it was raining today, the crew was wet and muddy. I still have a few dogs after blogging to do. 

Nathan is getting ready for a presentation to the judges and I am doing the blog and so many other things but feet is one as that nice clean floor is a muddy mess now. Dennis says, I am not cleaning it again till bedtime. I can't blame him.

Here is the gallery.

The gazebo helps for those that stay under it. It doesn't for those who think that mud is fun. I know we will get the pups out and no, I don't want them to head for the mud for you but rather not be afraid of it so one rainy day before they depart, I will be taking them outside and we will see how it goes. I know for me it will be adults plus pups but as this is spring, we need to truly get them used to mother nature. 

There are muddy mats they can walk on and cleaners for each paw. Its impossible for me if 5 dogs walk in the house at once and making them stay outside till each one is done is sort of defeating. But for you with 1 or two, it truly is much easier than what I do. 

Today, Scruffy, Pepper, Harlow, Frannie, Charlie and Gucci departed. Lots of grooming. Lots of fun to miss. 

It's been a fun day but boy do I have dogs to do. Then cuddles and sleep - my best time. Nathan brags this one cuddles with him and that ones does. Yeah, they snuggle with me too. hahaha

Last week next week with Charlie. Ali will miss him - us too!

Yes next week is Charlie's last week but he is going to come play and groom regularly! I think he will have Nathan & Darlah withdrawals no doubt!

Photo of Darlah’s Angels is great.
The three of them look so sweet but what are they thinking?
