Long Day

Rusty is home and tired just like me. LOL He is such a lovee!

This is Meadow watching the videos. Check them out.  I took a few videos of the swimming.

I have my grooming room ready now to be painted. I will have new cabinets installed. The sink is not here but we have to do this in stages. The room looks so large when my equipment is not in there.

It was a ton of work. Walls had to be washed. Appliances pushed out and cleaned behind, cabinets and closet emptied and cleaned. The floor washed. All my equipment had to be moved out. Then when this stage is done, I get to put it back and groom. I need to groom on Thursday - yikes.

Here is today's gallery.

It was a lot of work and that is why I am blogging at this hour. 

I want to go to sleep but back to it.

I Can't believe the dogs swimming. I agree with Sylvia. They are so confident. Amazing. Darlah you have to be exhausted. RUsty is so deliciously handsome and exhausted. Thanks for the wonderful day. He loves you and Nathan.

Did you see the videos of them jumping in and how Nathan makes it fun?

Thanks Su. We love him to pieces. Darlah I dreamt about them swimming. Nathan is a pro. But the dogs were having so much fun. Just like little kids. Really unbelievable. Did you get to swim at all yesterday?

Love the swimming gallery. I do not think that I have ever seen 5 Havanese swimming and having so much fun all at once.

So much fun is always had at Talemaker. Just think how much you will enjoy you grooming room when it is finished. I know, it doesn’t help, does it?

Ronnie:Rusty has always been a very handsome boy!
