Nathan's Birthday and Heat and Swim and Pups

Here is the gallery. I want you to know I had to rinse and dry every dog that swam. But Nathan wanted the dogs to swim so it's his birthday so it is what it is. LOL

Hallie adored having Jax and Tuppy here. She was over the moon happy!

It was so hot out and still is. 

We sprayed the deck - all around the pool to keep the dogs cool and we kept shuffling them into the air. God bless Apryl - she would stay out on that couch with me every second but she needed cool so we shuffled her in and out many many times a day. She wasn't the only one.

I groomed dogs and they stuck their faces in the cold water. We have cooling bowls and we added ice. It was a riot to watch the sopping wet faces.

I also groomed Katie as we are going to see if she can see momma Ruth tomorrow. I am still juggling grooming so it may just be Nathan but I am going to try to go to help.

Amy has been spending her days here as her human dad is in hospital from a mini stroke. He is getting better. I am so glad!

Nathan took his nap today with puppies. It was such a hardship - NOT! Nathan asked Lachlan if he wanted to go too and he went the other way. I am having too much fun and you want me to NAP - really?

I am waiting till the sun goes down to water the plants. 

Coco has departed and she hogged the vent today. Good smart gal! Jersey and Roger was caught playing with each other. Dash just goes and goes and goes in a fun way. He departs on Saturday. Lily is so enjoying... Nathan is watching Korean soap operas - yes he enjoys them and Lily is asleep on his neck.

It was a good day despite the heat. Nathan gets tomorrow off. Jersey gal departs tomorrow. She is a creature of habit. She goes from place to place to claim all the coveted spots as her own.
