Mighty Wet

Here is the gallery.

I had a full day of grooming and someone asked if I take the dogs outside. I almost laughed. Unless it is pouring, they are playing outside in and out all day long. We do silly things like the chase game that mostly Dennis does. We do a game of hide and seek but not all get it till the some that do get it. Does that make sense?

During tv time, on the big birthday this week, I filled up treat balls and each had their own. They were exceedingly happy.

A few videos are up today. Wish Nathan took more but he doesn't carry the phone around all the time and he has improved on his video taking skills.

Weather was mighty wet last night and this morning. I had dogs that I groomed and Dennis let them out. I actually had to do 2 dogs twice. I am so laughing. Now the sun is outside and they are saying time to eat guys. No, not yet - usually 430.

Sun is out and not a soul wants to go out but after dinner.

We have a full house this weekend. By Tuesday it will be mighty quiet. We had a new dog today and he was absolutely grand - kissy kissy even while grooming. It makes your heart swell, I swear - well me it does when you groom and they kiss you so you have to kiss and snuggle them back. You can't get a better day than that!

Ms Amy is departing now. Can't wait till snuggle bed time. LOL

Soon Vivi will be departing. She is a firecracker. Will she sleep on her way home or not?

So annoying going out in the rain/wet grass/dirt with Leo after he gets his bath (all that hair😟)
Also, is it my bad luck or do your dogs pickup slugs in their coats? I've picked off 3 in the past 2 days, doggies walking thru the leaf debris, makes me squirm just seeing them, yuck!🤢

No slugs yet. Mud, wet, seeds and someone had sap in them - not from here but came to be groomed with it. Sap is very hard to get out. I had to use a degreaser, Oh boy.
