Sherry asked me to ask what booties you are using - brand - where to get them as the last ones she tried created mats. We do not use booties. They are good to keep the salt off their feet especially in the city where its plentiful in the cold weather.
I started cutting down Riley as I am always proactive when pups are coming and you have no clue when that may be and then I realized she doesn't depart for another week. Oh well now all I have to do is bath and shape. That is okay too. I think I need more coffee. Being on wait for an impending birth means a lack of sleep always. Everyone else sleeps but me.
Nathan is getting the Keg tonight. We have 2 gift cards that we were holding on to for quite sometime and Nathan will do pickup. What a treat.
First he has to take Abby to the vets for her shots. Lucky him in the traffic at this time.
We bought more masks so if in need, we do have some at the door.
The dogs did not want to be outside too much today. It was windy cold.
Someone asked if we let the dogs outdoors by themselves. Although our backyard is safe (we have connected yards) and we check the area daily. Yes, meet my OCD son who feels better when he walks the fence line and I am glad he does. Nathan does it too. We ALWAYS go outside with the dogs. You see, how can you tell if they have an output issue. How do you know how they are interacting with each other. How do you know if they slip and hurt themselves etc. I know a lot of people open their door and just let them go. I get it - it is easier but by monitoring the dogs, you can stay on top of things and not assume. That makes me feel better. Besides, you couldn't take photos and you miss a LOT of fun by hibernating. I know - it is winter but fresh air is a good thing.
The dogs had a run today upstairs with Dennis. It is too icy outside. They have fun either way.
We have Fudge, Riley and Abby playing so much that they napped with Nathan out cold for a couple of hours. Dogs are always invited to nap with Nathan daily but it's very important for puppies as they don't usually pace themselves by taking naps. They are just too excited. Can you blame them. But when they hit that bed and see others napping, they do too.
Levon decided the cold was - well cold. He peed on the pad when everyone was going out and then turned away from the door. LOL
If you really watch the dogs - they are comical at times. You will find your laughter every single day no matter how bad it is. Dogs - well they are special and your heart swells with a good feeling - if allowed. Do allow. You will be glad that you did.
